Cork: A natural, sustainable material extracted from the bark of the cork oak tree, which excels in the shoe industry for its lightness, flexibility and shape memory. Its unique honeycomb-like cell structure contains millions of air bubbles that act as a natural shock absorber and thermal insulator. In footwear, cork is most commonly used for insoles and midsoles because it can adapt anatomically to the specific shape of the foot over time, providing individual arch support. It is naturally antibacterial, odour-resistant and, thanks to its ability to insulate, protects the feet from overheating and cold from the ground.

Narrow

EVA: Polymeric foam material valued for its exceptional lightness, flexibility and ability to absorb shock. In footwear construction, it is mainly used in midsoles, where it acts as a key cushioning layer protecting the musculoskeletal system from hard impacts. The material is made up of thousands of microscopic air bubbles that compress under load and then return to their original shape. EVA is also highly resistant to low temperatures, does not absorb water and is biologically inert, making it a safe and versatile material for sports and leisure footwear.

EVA: Features a lightweight and highly functional shoe bottom solution that combines cushioning capabilities and structural support. Unlike conventional rubber soles, it features a significantly lower weight and a higher degree of flexibility, ensuring smooth and natural foot movement. The material effectively absorbs vibrations generated by contact with hard surfaces, reducing the stress on the joints and spine. EVA soles are often used in leisure and urban footwear due to their soft tread and ability to retain their shape during everyday use.
