The technology behind actiflex: the stretch leather in the forefoot area is ideal for foot problems such as hallux valgus and hammer toe.

The actiflex shoe features selected leather and individually adjustable options. The comfort shoes come in a range of designs with lovingly crafted details and offer a combination of a modern look with a high degree of comfort. If your retailer does not have the shoes you want in stock why not simply order them from us, secure in the knowledge that you can return them to us if you wish.

A complex manufacturing process makes the leather especially elastic and stretchable, allowing it to fully express the special capabilities so important for the actiflex shoe.

4 High-quality actiflex stretch materials Our actiflex comfort shoes fit all shapes of feet perfectly. This is possible thanks to an extremely flexible, breathable outer material comprising either multiple layers of textile or a multi-layer textile-leather combination. A complex manufacturing process makes the leather especially elastic and stretchable, allowing it to fully express the special capabilities so important for the actiflex shoe. Thanks to the leather s ability to return to its original shape, the shoe always retains a perfect fit. Our actiflex comfort shoes are particularly suitable for: people who have to wear insoles patients with mild to moderate foot conditions such as bunions, hammer toes and claw toes, as well as anyone who appreciates good shoes all people who set great store by pressure-free wearing comfort Our actiflex comfort shoes are characterised by: fashionable designs the greatest possible flexibility the use of first-class materials continuous quality controls STRETCHY LEATHER 4

The limited stretchability of stretchy leather is only achieved by subjecting the raw material to a special process.

5 The footpath is the best path to good health What exactly is? is an elastic synthetic fibre with excellent wearability, being very stretchable and therefore extremely comfortable. Which is more stretchable? Stretchy leather lined with or on its own? is significantly more stretchable. Leather is a natural product which is not at all stretchable in its basic form. The limited stretchability of stretchy leather is only achieved by subjecting the raw material to a special process. This old German saying is more central than ever to our philosophy of life, and the right footwear is very much part of the picture here. The fashion- and healthconscious people of today expect more than ever in terms of wearability and design. Quite simply, we want that feel-good factor. Our feet have to carry us all day long, and to perform that task they need the right support. The actiflex comfort shoe, with its feather-light design and stretchable outer materials, offers exactly what we expect of a health-conscious shoe. 5

6 The outstanding properties of actiflex comfort shoes Stretchable outer material Shock-absorbing outsole The high-quality stretch material fashioned from a textile-leather combination adapts optimally to the shape of the foot. The materials used for the outsole protect the joints by absorbing shock, thus helping prevent foot soreness and easing the strain on your body. Pressure-free Feather-light Anatomically shaped lasts and partially sadded uppers ensure wearing comfort. The combination of high-quality leather and a soft sole has been tried and tested over decades and ensures minimum weight coupled with maximum comfort. Breathable The select high-quality leather we use, coupled with our stretch materials, offers a high degree of breathability, which is retained even in humid and warm conditions. Combined with our painstaking manufacturing techniques, that makes our actiflex comfort shoes extremely breathable. High-quality leather Removable footbed Flexible outsole Wearers of special insoles can easily replace the footbed. The risk of slippage is minimised by a heel arch specially adapted for use with insoles. The flexible outsole ensures maximum freedom of movement when walking and provides support during every load phase. 6 High-quality leather in the rear foot area confers a feeling of well-being. The material is skin-friendly, so direct skin contact has no negative effects.

7 Different widths ensure a perfect fit The shoe width, which is determined by the width of the forefoot, is important for a perfect fit. Only if the shoe fits perfectly will wearing comfort be enhanced, and a good fit is also vital for increasing the useful life of our actiflex shoes and encouraging a healthy gait. That is why our collection features four different widths: G, H, J and K. G is the narrowest width and K the widest. Each model is available only in the width stated in the catalogue. The stretchability of the outer material ensures that the shoe adapts optimally to the shape of your foot. This degree of stretch ensures that the shoes retain their outstanding wearing comfort even for feet at the limit of that width range. 7

Explanations of symbols and indications What is a bunion and which shoes should I wear if I ve got one? What are hammer and claw toes and which shoes should I wear if I suffer from them?

Bunions often also involve widening of the foot in the ball region. Bunions may have a variety of causes, and in most cases several direct triggers interact.

8 Explanations of symbols and indications What is a bunion and which shoes should I wear if I ve got one? What are hammer and claw toes and which shoes should I wear if I suffer from them? Bunions afflict the base joint of the big toe. The condition is also known as hallux abductor valgus. In this foot condition, the joint at the base of the big toe deviates outwards. Bunions often also involve widening of the foot in the ball region. Bunions may have a variety of causes, and in most cases several direct triggers interact. Genetic predisposition can cause a tendency towards flaccid connective tissue. If this is exacerbated by wearing the wrong shoes, deformity of the big toe may result. Any factor which weakens connective tissue, for instance frequent standing, will also increase the likelihood of a bunion. We have designed the shoe models marked with this symbol with the special needs of bunion patients in mind. The fully padded forefoot area significantly reduces pressure on the ball of the foot, and in addition this area is free from seams. Hammer toe is a condition in which the proximal phalanx is overstretched, leading to pronounced, permanent bending of the proximal interphalangeal joint. The distal phalanx is often unaffected. In claw toe there is pronounced bending of the medial and distal phalanges and maximum overstretching of the proximal phalanx, which can lead to dislocation (luxation) of the proximal phalanx. Like bunions, hammer and claw toe usually occur after the age of 50, often as a symptom accompanying flat feet. However, hammer and claw toes may also occur as a consequence of the inflammatory joint condition rheumatoid arthritis. To prevent pressure pain or chafing, these models come with stretchable outer material in the toe region, and we have dispensed with any seams against which the foot could rub. The perfect combination: with our new bunion and hammer and claw toes socks You can now combine our actiflex shoes with our special socks for bunion and hammer and claw toes patients.

comfort. These models may be worn by people suffering from bunions, as well as hammer or claw toes.

9 What exactly is an all-in-one and for which conditions should I wear these? In models marked with this symbol, the entire forefoot region is free from seams and made with stretchable material, thereby reducing pressure on the forefoot and significantly enhancing wearing comfort. These models may be worn by people suffering from bunions, as well as hammer or claw toes.
