  • 100% Sustainable upper materials

    We have refocused our ethos of care for the planet and our commitment to the environment.

    We are passionate about footwear, about sustainability and about our technology, the genesis of our brand.

    Our language is one of comfort and in our footwear simplicity is key. No superfluous details, just the world’s most comfortable shoe, made with sustainable materials, a unique removable HYBRID-AIR INSOLE SYSTEM and our Antiviral sole. All this combined with the Twin Arch Support System and the Techno Elastic Upper.

    We pair footwear with technology. We pair sustainability with comfort.

  • techno elastic upper

    Exclusive to the Arcopedico brand, Lytech is an environmentally friendly textile that is flexible, breathable and machine washable!

    Lytech is an ultra-light blend of polyurethane and Lycra, allowing incredible softness and moulds to the wearer's foot, making it ideal for those with bunions or other foot conditions. Lytech is also 15 times stronger than leather!

    Lytech is BioCalce Certified, meaning its eco-friendly, vegan, water-resistant, biodegradable, and uses minimal toxic materials in the manufacturing process.

  • Twin Arch Support System

    The most recognisable feature of any of our shoes, the twin arch support system, has won the hearts of Arcopedico faithfuls around the world.

    These two lengthways structures provide essential support to your arches, aiding in maintaining correct alignment down the spinal column and evenly distributing bodyweight across the entire plantar surface.

    Wearing shoes with adequate arch support helps to improve the wearer’s posture, gait and alignment, while also helping to reduce symptoms of plantar fasciitis, foot fatigue and back pain.

  • Hybrid-air insole system

    The recycled material removable insole combines a moisture absorption and dissolution system to regenerate airflow and balance the temperature inside the footwear. This helps to reduce odour and improve overall foot health.

    You can also purchase replacement insoles for your well-loved styles.

  • Lightweight & antiviral sole

    Prevents the spread of virus particles, protecting the health and wellbeing of all.

    Arcopedico’s ultra-light, ergonomic PU sole is made up of tiny air bubbles that help to absorb impact while you walk.

    Wearing shoes with built-in shock absorption is important in helping to protect your ankles, joints and vertebrae from excessive impact, and helps to reduce foot fatigue.

    PU soles are super durable and grip patterning on the outer sole helps to reduce slippage and provide traction on varied terrains.

  • Machine Washable

    Our Lytech and Elstech shoes are all machine washable making them a great choice if you’re on the go or travelling. 

    How to wash your favourite Arcopedico shoes: 

    1. Remove the insoles
    2. Set your washing machine to a gentle cycle, no more than 30 degrees Celsius. 
    3. Place the shoes in a garment bag and into your machine. 
    4. Once the cycle is finish, air dry your shoes away from direct sunlight to avoid fading. Do not tumble dry.
