What is the secret to Wolky soles?

In some cultures, it is not typical to show the bottom of your shoes. Fortunately, not with us; Wolky Shoes are made to be seen!

Wolky’s are special both inside and out. Characteristic is the anatomically shaped, often removable footbed. What many people do not know is that the soles of Wolky are also striking. Why? Wolky soles are exclusive. All soles are designed by Wolky itself and the choice of materials is always very consciously chosen. The sole actually determines the overall profile of the shoe.

Each sole requires its own mold, which is an extremely accurate and time-consuming activity. Many shoemakers, therefore, choose to use “general molds”. Wolky sees the soles as an important part of the comfort and design of a shoe and that is why we make all molds ourselves. When you realize that 8 molds are required for each model (1 for each size) you can imagine that we have collected a large archive of molds over the years!

Fit 2 Feet method

Have you ever thought about the shape of your shoes? We have. The shape of shoes differs from feet. Poor shoes lead to foot problems. Short-term foot problems include calluses and blisters. Hallux valgus is a long-term foot problem. Fit 2 Feet shoes solve these issues. The Fit 2 Feet method ensures that your shoes stretch with your feet. Elegant shoes that perfectly fit the shape of your foot are the result.

Interview: the family behind Wolky

We walk through those four decades with company owner Anthony and his father, Wolky founder Kees Diks. But we begin by stepping back even further in time. Right back to Kees’s grandfather, Cornelis Diks, who was a shoemaker.
