Tips for choosing comfortable work shoes
Comfortable, breathable, stylish – find work shoes that will carry you through every day.
But what really matters when you're looking for the ideal work shoe? We've put together the most important tips for you – and show you why Giesswein work shoes are not only stylish, but also completely comfortable.
Comfort is king – the right foot feel counts
The most important factor when choosing work shoes is comfort. Nothing is worse than shoes that pinch or are too heavy. A lightweight, flexible shoe with optimal cushioning is crucial here – and that's exactly what Merino Runners offer.
These premium trainers made from merino wool adapt perfectly to your feet thanks to innovative 3D stretch technology. The removable footbed provides individual support, while the EVA sole gives you a feather-light walking experience.
Another plus point: you can also wear them barefoot – the soft merino wool is comfortable against the skin and naturally prevents odours. This makes every working day a feel-good experience.
Breathability – No more sweaty feet
An often underestimated aspect of work shoes is breathability. Especially if you are active all day long, it is important that your feet can ‘breathe’.
The Merino Wool Knit Sneakers are real specialists in this area: the innovative Merino 3D knit fabric ensures that moisture is wicked away, while your feet stay dry and fresh.
The temperature-regulating merino wool keeps you warm in winter and pleasantly cool in summer – a real all-rounder for all seasons. And best of all, the Merino Wool Knit Sneakers are machine washable and therefore super easy to care for.
Fit and stability – your shoes must suit you
Whether you have narrow, normal or slightly wider feet, work shoes should always fit like a glove. Lace-up models, such as the Merino Runners or Wool Knit Sneakers, offer the advantage of being individually adjustable to your feet.
Stability also plays an important role: a non-slip, flexible sole, such as those found on Giesswein shoes, ensures a secure grip, even on slippery floors. The combination of a springy footbed and ergonomic shape supports your natural gait, providing noticeable relief for your feet and joints.
Style meets sustainability – because work shoes can also be attractive
Who says work shoes have to look boring? At Giesswein, functional design meets modern style. Whether classic in white, subtle in grey or trendy in colour – the models can be easily combined with any work outfit.
Added to this is the sustainability aspect: Giesswein uses renewable natural materials such as merino wool or eucalyptus fibres in its manufacturing process. So you're not only doing something good for your feet, but also for the environment.
A good work shoe is much more than just functional – it accompanies you throughout the day, ensures your well-being and gives you a confident stride. With Merino Runners and Merino Wool Knit Sneakers, you will find comfortable work shoes that perfectly combine all requirements: breathable, lightweight, odourless, washable and stylish.
