4 Shoe Brands that are both stylish and comfortable

By Paul Lucas

When buying a pair of shoes, we often had to choose between design and functionality. Today, shoe makers are able to put these qualities together in one package. Looking for the most popular pair of shoes at the moment? Take a look at these classic brands!

Wolky. Wolky footwear is made using high-quality full-grain leathers for top notch comfort and endurance. The foot beds are contoured cork, which distribute the body's weight equally and offer a firm, shock-absorbent base for superlative health. The addition of high density memory foam layer that rests atop the cork memorizes the foot structure, meaning a unique individual imprint of foot is transferred onto the insole of the shoe. The entire foot bed is covered with supple, soft leather, soothing the feet.

Gabor. Gabor maintains traditional handiwork, which even in time of industrial manufacturing processes cannot be taken for granted. The combination of the traditional craft for the cobbler, innovative technology a feel for fashion is Gabor's trademark. With Gabor, you can always be in style. Long dimensional stability, having perfect fit and excellent price/performance ratio are just few reasons why consumers buy Gabor.

El Naturalista. El Naturalista joins the latest technologies with shoemaking traditions by using a special hand-stitching technique to produce some of its models. This technique, inspired by traditional shoe-making methods, enables to create a thicker thread, which results in a sturdy shoe with artistic finish. Using natural rubber insoles, which bends and absorbs impact effortlessly, is a key factor in shoe flexibility and durability. Also, once natural rubber is discarded it decomposes much more rapidly than synthetic materials, making it safe to nature.

Romika. Romika has combined fashion with comfort in creating quality footwear ever since 1963. With the use of the latest technology, Romika remained true to its German heritage in producing high-quality shoes. The foot bed is made up of resilient cork, pure latex and moisture absorbent leather. The leather foot bed is laden tiny air holes that lets air to circulate inside your shoes even as you wear them and allows your feet to breath. Each design is customizable to allow perfect fit, resulting in best comfort and flexibility. - 16651
