Lots of our customers come to us for rocker sole boots and shoes because their doctor or podiatrist has advised them that they need a rocker sole. As Winter draws in, we have put together some information about rocker sole boots from Alegria and Waldlaufer.
We have been selling styles from German manufacturer Waldlaufer for many years now and we love the brand as they design for women whose feet may be a little wider than average. They introduced a mild rocker 'Dynamic Sole' range recently and it has become a firm favourite with Cheerful Soles customers.
H Sonja Rocker Sole Boots
The H Sonja style is part of the Waldlaufer Dynamic Sole Range. This mild rocker sole is a perfect choice for active feet. The effective mild rocker sole is so flexible that you experience a naturally flowing rocking movement. These rocker soles are not as pronounced as our Joya rocker sole range or say an MBT. This is more of a gentle rocker which is instantly comfortable, cushions the foot and supports the ankle.
Waldlaufer Dynamic Rolling Sole
These rocker sole boots provide extra cushioning under the heel and forefoot. This helps to alleviate the stresses to your body from everyday walking and standing. If you're looking for an introduction to a rocker sole shoe that provides cushioning and support but not necessarily the extreme rocking sensation that often accompanies a rocker sole, then this is the style for you
Alegria Caiti Boots
The Alegria Caiti is a firm favourite at Cheerful Soles. All Alegria styles have a fore foot or front rocker sole. With a Front rocker sole, the rocker is starts at the ball of the foot and extends to the tips of the toes. The front rocker helps to reduce the pressure under the ball of the foot and limit the motion in the toe joints from walking and standing. The outer sole of all our Alegria styles is extremely rigid and is anti-slip. We have customers with foot conditions such as Hallux Rigidus who wear Alegria styles.
The Alegria Rocker Foot Bed
The foot bed in Alegria shoes is where the magic happens. In addition to the front rocker sole, the layers of cork, memory foam and leather lining in the foot bed provide excellent arch support and will mould to the shape of your feet for ultimate comfort.
