Imbalance – Shoes that challenge your stability can create groin pulls, knee pains and back and neck pain.

Pain – When shoes cause poor alignment or the range of motion is limited in the foot, other joints throughout the body will try to compensate for it, and this is what often causes pain.

Many Americans young and old work out every day: they lift weights not only to bulk up, but also to strengthen their bones to protect them from injury. Why should we not do the same for our feet?! Our feet and toes MUST be exercised to strengthen muscle tissue and ligaments. Just like upper body exercise enlivens your body and mind, so does exercising your feet. Haflinger footwear provides a roomy toe box for your toes to spread out freely, contract naturally and essentially work out while you walk all day. Your posture, body alignment and balance will all benefit. Haflinger footwear is total wellness!

Many shoes claim to have supportive footbeds that consist of nothing more than a thin, flimsy foam lining or insert. But this is not enough to protect and animate your foot and it offers inadequate support for an active lifestyle.

It will provide support not just for your feet but for your entire body, promoting good health in muscles and bones while easing the strain on the hips, knees and spine.
