The creation of Wollwalk: tradition meets innovation
Wool is a fabric with a long history. The fulling process has been used for centuries to make wool particularly robust and weatherproof. But what actually happens during fulling? In this process, raw new wool is first cleaned and then felted in hot water under pressure. The fine wool fibers become entangled with each other and form a dense fabric that still remains pleasantly soft. This felting process not only makes the wool more resistant, but also particularly insulating and water-repellent.woolwalk used to be widely used, especially in mountainous regions, because it is suitable for extreme weather conditions. Today, the material has arrived in the fashion industry - especially in the area of sustainable clothing. The fulling process ensures that the wool retains and even enhances its natural properties: it warms without overheating and protects against moisture without the need for chemical additives.
The outstanding properties of woolwalk: a fabric for all seasons
When it comes to the properties of woolwalk, hardly any other material can keep up. First of all, woolwalk is extremely temperature-regulating. Wool has the natural ability to store air in the fibers, creating an insulating layer. This means that woolwalk is pleasantly warm in winter, while in summer it has a cooling effect by releasing excess heat. This is a huge advantage, especially for clothing that you want to wear all year round. Another strength of woolwalk is its water and dirt repellency. The wool fibers are naturally coated with lanolin, a wool grease. This grease makes the fabric almost impermeable to water. Rain simply rolls off the surface and if the fabric does get wet, it dries again quickly without losing its insulating properties. Stains also have a hard time - it is often enough to simply brush or shake out the fabric to remove dirt. Another advantage of woolwalk is its self-cleaning properties. As wool has a natural antibacterial effect, it neutralizes odours and rarely needs to be washed.

With 3D Stretch Merino wool, they combine the natural benefits of merino wool with state-of-the-art technology to create a product that sets new standards in terms of comfort and functionality. What makes this wool so special? The 3D Stretch Merino wool is characterized above all by its exceptional elasticity. A special knitting process is used to process the wool in such a way that it can stretch in all directions. This ensures a perfect fit and incomparable comfort. No matter how you move - the wool adapts to your body shape and every movement without losing its shape retention. This is particularly important for garments and shoes that you wear every day. This technology creates products that are lightweight, breathable and incredibly soft - while still remaining hard-wearing. Merino wool is also one of the finest types of wool in the world and is known for its special softness. Unlike other types of wool, it does not scratch the skin, but feels pleasantly soft. Merino wool is also unbeatable when it comes to breathability: It absorbs moisture from the skin and releases it to the outside, keeping you dry and comfortable at all times.
The advantages of walking shoes: comfort meets functionality
Walk shoes made from woolwalk offer you a perfect combination of comfort, functionality and style. One major advantage is the natural material itself: Woolwalk is breathable and temperature-regulating. This means that your feet stay pleasantly warm in cool weather without you breaking a sweat.

Thanks to the special processing, the material feels soft and flexible, which makes them particularly comfortable to wear. The shoes adapt to your movements and are therefore ideal for long walks, everyday wear or even at home. The flexible sole also offers you excellent cushioning, so that every step is gently cushioned.In addition to being comfortable to wear, walking shoes also look good. They can be combined in a variety of ways and go well with both sporty and elegant outfits.
