FEATURES

BELLOWS TONGUE

A Bellows Tongue is a large folding tongue permanently attached to the top and sides of the shoe upper. It protects from snow, water, and sand while increasing insulation.

CUT-TO-LENGTH STRAP

Most people prefer a set of Velcro straps as their fastening system, mainly because they are simple for children and older people to use.

To broaden the adjustment length, Klaveness offers extra-long Velcro straps marked with different length options for cutting. The user can cut off the excess, allowing the length to be adjusted in a controlled way.

DOUBLE VELCRO STRAP WITH RETURN

Klaveness uses two sets of opposite fastening return straps for further closure and adjustability. This solution also widens the opening and aids in putting on and taking out of shoes.

One obtains a reinforced closure and an optimised adjustment by returning the strap through a loop, acting as a pulley system.

DOUBLE ZIPPER

This dual-side zipper closure adds functionality and warrants a wide opening to footwear for easy put on and take off.

ICE SOLE WITH PATENTED TWISTABLE STUD PART

Klaveness developed a solution to prevent slipping accidents - a significant problem, especially among older people.

This ice sole system is an easily twistable piece built into the bottom of the sole. 
If you need increased grip when walking on icy surfaces, twist it to the metal studs side; for versatile indoor walking, turn it to the opposite side.

PATENTED ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM FOR VELCRO WITH RETURN

This patented system, developed by Klaveness, is available in a wide range of stock footwear and can be used in orthopaedic styles.

To broaden the extension of adjustment, we offer extra-long cuttable Velcro straps. After setting the desired length, the unused part of the strap must be cut off, resulting in nicely finished ending seams.

REMOVABLE 3MM EXTRA FITTING INSOLE

This adjustment inlay is used to regulate the interior volume of the shoe.
Some footwear requires more volume than usual to accommodate correctional foot orthotics.

REMOVABLE FOOTBED

Footbeds are essential in creating comfortable shoes and providing cushion, comfort, and moisture management.

Removable footbeds are particularly beneficial for those needing custom-made foot orthotics. They can also be detached for airing and replaced with a new pair when they wear out.

VELCRO STRAP WITH RETURN

This feature adds functionality to the Velcro® strap by returning it through a metallic loop. This loop acts as a pulley system, absorbing force in friction around the tight bend, resulting in reinforced closure and optimised adjustment.

WATERPROOF

Footwear with this feature includes a W-tex water-repellent membrane, which enhances its resistance to water and ensures that feet stay dry and comfortable in wet or icy conditions.

ZIPPER

Zippers, which consist of two tracks of metal teeth that interlock via a central pulley, are always the right solution for those who have difficulties fastening footwear. They simplify and speed up taking off and putting on shoes, allowing the exact fit each time.

BOA® FIT SYSTEM

BOA® is an instant, single-handed, fine-tuning closure system that optimises fit and provides precision and control. It is an alternative to traditional shoelaces.

It delivers a smooth and even closure whilst minimising pressure points.

BOA® IS EASY TO USE

DIAL-FASTENER

It is optimised to improve comfort, adaptability and fine-tuning and is particularly suitable for individually made footwear, as it enables higher levels of customisation.

WATER-REPELLENT CONSTRUCTION
