Dr. Scholls Shoes

Their History

Dr. William Mathias Scholl's main objective was to find the key to foot comfort. Pain was an all too familiar thing in his own life and those around him. After working with shoes from a young age, it's not a stretch to see how he ended up with the desire, the drive and the expertise to branch out on his own. What started out as an orthopedic experiment turned out to be a very successful line of shoes.

It's not a well-known fact that Dr. Scholl himself set into motion the wooden sole trend for the 1960s and 1970s. One million pairs of his exercise shoe sold within just four years. His exercise shoes with wooden soles flew off the shelves! Do you know what else? The design is still popular today.

What the Website Has to Offer

Don't neglect the most obvious resource in locating these shoes. The Dr. Scholls shoes website has a Fit Assistant to help you convert your own size to or from UK or European sizes. You can also get style advice and view the hottest new trends in shoes.

Men's Shoes

Choose from running shoes or casual shoes. Here are a few favorites:

• The Men's Amsterdam is a shoe that goes with everything.
• For a shoe that makes it easy to kick back and relax, try the Men's Java.

Women's Shoes

The name says it all. The Women's Toasty looks just that. These are shoes that will warm your feet as efficiently as a roaring fire in the winter.

If you're looking for something a bit more athletic, try the Women's Vista Walker. As the name states, this is a walking shoe. What the name doesn't state is, the color scheme on this style makes them a perfect complement to any workout gear--or even blue jeans. Escape from the stark whiteness of traditional workout shoes.

Kids' Shoes

It's quite possibly more crucial for kids' shoes to fit well and comfortably than adult shoes.

Your little girl can be just like mommy with the Kids' Toasty style.

There's even a kids' sandal, the Jake. It's sporty, lightweight and provides excellent traction.

Insoles and Accessories

Not only are Dr. Scholls insoles on the Shoes.com website, but you can also buy creams and tools to keep your feet looking and feeling their best. For starters, try an exfoliating cream to smooth out those dry heels.
