German barefoot shoes handmade in the Westerwald
Helmuth Ohlhoff turned a doctor's barefoot advice into a sock-shoe after five years of trials; the company and first model arrived in 2009. Shoes are still sewn in-house in Buchholz with a proprietary LIFOLIT sole, sold through the online shop and over 100 brand stores in Germany.
