Rieker Antistress Sandals
|
Lighter
* Specially produced components and a unique construction method
ensure that Rieker shoes are extremely lightweight and
comfortable.
* A snug fit at the heel prevents forward movement of the foot
within the shoe thus allowing total flexibility and total
comfort.
Flexibility
* Rieker shoes are especially flexible (no pinching) to give
your foot freedom to move throughout the day whatever your tasks
are.
* Flexible hand stitching within each shoe ensures the best fit
at all times.
Shock Absorbing
* The Rieker Antistress sole unit absorbs shock by spreading
pressure over its entire surface for a more comfortable tread
* Differing sole types;
o PU – Soles (polyurethane)
o Rubber soles
o Multicolour soles
o Thermoplastic rubber (moulded)
Roomier
* Special Rieker lasts (shapes) ensure that there is more room
at the front of the shoe allowing extra space for your foot when
you need it.
Manufacturing
* Shoes are made on forms called lasts. They are fundamental to
the manufacturing process as they dictate the exact size, shape
and fit of the shoe made upon them.
* A fully developed human foot remains the same shape throughout
adulthood, last shapes continuously change in accordance with
current fashion trends. For example, slight changes of toe
shape, dependent on the design of the shoe, requires a new last.
* Once the shapes are down on paper, the Pattern Cutter produces
a blue print which serves as a basis for the rest of the
patterns for that style. A single shoe can have up to 50 parts
and it is the Pattern Cutters responsibility to make sure these
parts fit.
* A sample is produced next so it can be fit tested and style
tested. This is important to ensure that the product is
commercial in the current marketplace. |
