Glue-detailed shoes - craftsmanship meets modernity

Glue-detailed shoes - craftsmanship meets modernity

The origins of the adhesive pinched design

  • Glued-toe shoemaking has its origins in traditional 19th century shoemaking. This technique, in which the upper is glued to the insole, offers high stability and durability. Originally developed for work and hiking shoes, the glued-toe technique has been further developed using modern materials and processes and is now a symbol of quality and comfort.

Advances in technology

  • The technology of the adhesive tweezed design has developed considerably in recent years. Modern materials and innovative processes ensure that these shoes are lighter, more flexible and more comfortable than ever before. The combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern technologies makes adhesive-knit shoes an excellent choice for hikers and trekking enthusiasts.

Did you know?

  • STABLE &
    COMFORTABLE

    Glued-toe shoes offer a high level of stability and optimum comfort at the same time. Gluing the upper to the insole ensures a particularly firm connection that guides the foot well and is comfortable at the same time.

  • DURABLE &
    RESOLEABLE

    A major advantage of the glued-toe design is that it can be resoled. When the outsole is worn out, it can be completely replaced, which can significantly extend the life of the shoe.

  • DIVERSE &
    RELIABLE

    Glue-in shoes are available in a wide variety of designs: As a light, flexible low shoe for the approach, as a stable, reliable companion for alpine tours and for pretty much every purpose in between, there is a suitable model.
