Let's face it, Europeans are big walkers. They have a history in shoe design and manufacturing that goes back centuries. Although Germany has built a global reputation for all things mechanical - from cars to industrial machinery - they are also pioneers in the field of foot orthoses or orthotics. Foot orthotics is a specialized medical field concerned with studying ways to help solve common foot ailments and increase foot performance often by creating purpose built footbeds or shoe inserts.

To this day Germany holds an annual shoemaking competition that began in the 1920's. Universities in Europe offer college level courses that specialize in foot orthotics. In a world of high tech, mass production, Europe continues to maintain traditions where they find value in the form of apprenticeship's.

The cheapest element in most shoes today are the insoles. Up until now, most aftermarket or replacement insoles are made of inferior materials and are often soft and spongy. They may provide an initial feeling of relief, however, over time they tend perpetuate or mask foot problems.

So why not try insoles that are designed and manufactured by people who spend a lot of time walking i.e. the Europeans? Developed by doctors, athletes and engineers, they are designed to provide maximum, long term performance and the right amount of support. Bergal insoles are made from high quality materials sourced from Europe. They are made in Europe. But don't take our word for it, take it from the many Europeans who have made Bergal a household name. Bergals products are now available on Amazon's North American platform, ie www.amazon.com.

Bergal is a division of Bergal, Nico & Solitaire located in Mainz, Germany. The company specializes in shoe care accessories that include cleaners, shoe trees and insoles. Bergal products are now available for the first time in North America. For more information please contact sole distributor Paul Gill who can be reached at:
