• Chrome-free leather inner lining (Chrome-Free Leather): Internal lining made of ecological, hypoallergenic leather with a soft feel that optimally absorbs moisture, preventing irritation or odors.

• Removable and recycled flat insole: Includes a fully removable smooth insole made from recycled materials, which facilitates daily airing of the footwear, hygiene, and regulation of foot volume.

• Precise lace-up adjustment: Front lacing system that allows for millimeter adjustment of the tension over the instep and the shaft to ensure a firm and stable gait.

• Comfort padded collar: Softened ankle area that prevents chafing and provides an enveloping feel with every step.

• Ethical manufacturing in the European Union: Designed in the Netherlands and handcrafted in Portugal under strict EU quality, sustainability, and labor responsibility standards.

Benefits of the Koel barefoot design

• Barefoot feel (Zero Drop): Totally flat sole with no heel elevation that promotes upright posture and neutral biomechanical alignment of the spine.

• Anatomical wide last (Wide Toe Box): Very spacious toe box designed following the actual shape of the male foot, allowing the metatarsals and toes to expand freely with each step.

• Flexible, low-profile rubber sole: A thin, fully malleable rubber base that offers excellent proprioceptive response, lightness, and great grip on urban surfaces.

Cleaning and maintenance tips for nappa leather

1. Routine cleaning: Remove accumulated dust or surface stains by wiping with a cloth slightly dampened with water or a soft sponge.

2. Nourishment and waterproofing: Periodically apply a neutral nourishing cream or balm to keep the nappa leather elastic and hydrated. It is recommended to spray with a waterproofing agent to protect the leather against water splashes and dirt stains.

3. Air drying: If the inside gets damp, remove the insole and let it dry naturally in the shade in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct exposure to radiators, heaters, or intense sun to prevent the leather from stiffening.
