Many factory shoes are designed to feel soft immediately. Foam padding and flexible materials create a pleasant first impression, but they compress quickly. Once that softness is gone, little support remains.
Well-made shoes take the opposite approach. They rely on leather, cork, and structured components that adapt gradually. While the first few wears may feel firm, the result is a shoe that supports the foot instead of collapsing under it.
Comfort built over time lasts longer than comfort built overnight.
