Reflexology Design
Our shoe designs are inspired by the natural health benefits that come from stimulating key areas of your feet. Through this we have created shoes that not only improve your foot health but improve your body's health too. Every Okabash shoe is made to be comfortable, supportive, reliable and sustainable all at the same time.
Superior arch support.
Reduces stress on your feet, knees, hips, and back by correcting your body's alignment. Fixing alignment can also result in pain relief from various discomforts, including conditions like Plantar Fasciitis.
Massage beads.
Using the principles of reflexology, these tiny yet powerful beads gently stimulate key pressure points in your feet. This stimulation optimizes blood circulation, which can increase your body’s healing rate and energy levels.
Elevated heel cup.
An elevated heel helps to reduce stress on the calf and Achilles tendon - great for people with Achilles Tendonitis. Our heel cupping minimises side to side movement giving you more stability with each step. The cup also serves as a natural cushion, alleviating any discomfort in a sore heel.
No toe clawing.
Loose fitting footwear leads to toe gripping and foot fatigue. When stepping in loose thongs, slides or sandals your feet land with an unsupported collapsed arch, which can easily lead to foot injuries and discomfort. We create our shoes to have snug fitting straps that keep your shoe securely shaped to your foot. This encourages normal walking mechanics giving your feet a supported and protected landing with each step.
Metatarsal dome.
This innovative design reduces pressure in your feet and minimises foot fatigue. The dome also provides further arch support and cushions your every step. Raising this central area can result in relief from conditions like Metatarsalgia and Morton's Neuroma.
Slip-resistant sole.
A textured slip resistant footbed and sole is so important for foot support and security. Our material is resistant to slipping and sliding on wet and dry surfaces so you can walk with them with peace of mind, whether you’re at the beach, pool or the shops.
