Wolkys are famous for being good for your feet and comfortable to walk in. But that doesn’t mean they don’t look good too. In fact, quite the opposite: Wolky shoes are good enough to frame! You’ll nd the living proof in this video.
From sporty sneakers à la Gear, Kicks and Trial to high heels like the Upstage – the new Wolky collection is as varied as ever and has something for everyone. Fans of heels are catered for with our feisty yet feminine Rock and Gaucho boots. But there are plenty of atter models to choose from too. Take the Revolution, River, Striver – or how about the Stream? All Wolky models are comfortable, but the Journey, UP2, Torque and Flow are our star performers. Or round off your party out t with the elegant Jive or Canto. To add a touch of sparkle, some of this season’s models feature a metallic sheen and shiny crush leather. And naturally Wolky doesn’t do cold feet: our waterproof or warm lined models will keep you snug and warm through the chilliest weather. This season we’ve also teamed up with Leontien Zijlaard-van Moorsel again to produce the Gear 1250 Fast by Leontien, a sporty winter sneaker in black crush leather. And last but not least we present the shoes in our Cloud 9 men’s label.

Young or old, little or large, trendsetter or trend follower – Wolky makes shoes for every woman who wants to walk in comfort. No matter how old you are, what kind of gure you have or how fashion-conscious you are, you’ll always nd a Wolky shoe that’s right for you (from size 36). Living proof of this are Siena (11), Suus (95), Irma (66) and Ingeborg (39) – four generations who have each taken Wolky to their hearts in their own way.

Summer, autumn, winter or spring – illustrator Jet Bergmans comes up with a catchy illustration based on her impression of the new season. This time Jet has taken her inspiration from the energy that’s released when people come together – whether in the train, at work or on a journey. We always inspire each other – wherever we are!

Gear 1250 Fast
Get in the fast lane with Gear. The sole is made of XL Light, so you’ll barely notice you’re wearing it. With their supersoft Nappa leather and contemporary crush suede, these running machines are not only comfortable, they’re right on trend too.
IT’S A WOLKY BY LEONTIEN
Gear 1250 Fast by Leontien 900
The sole of the Gear not only looks
great, it gives you a great grip too!
She’s a former racing cyclist, multiple Olympic medal winner and world champion, and now she’s a shoe designer too – because Leontien van Moorsel worked with Wolky to design Flow 4351 Zela by Leontien for autumn/winter 2014 and Biker 1225 Biker by Leontien for spring/summer 2015. And now for autumn/winter 2015 we’re adding her latest creation – Gear 1250 Fast by Leontien! Just like Leontien, these winter sneakers are sporty and feminine with a touch of sparkle. And they’re incredibly comfortable to boot! As if that wasn’t enough in itself, a percentage of the purchase price of the Fast by Leontien goes to the Leontien Foundation, an organisation that helps young people with eating disorders.

The outside has a great impact on the way we perceive and experience things, but it’s the inside that makes the difference. Wolky looks beyond the latest trends and colours and focuses on comfort. With lasts designed to produce a perfect t, anatomically shaped footbeds and the softest materials that mould themselves precisely to the foot. Put on a pair of Wolkys and you’ll notice right away: feet love Wolky.
IT’S THE INSIDE THAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE!
The Liberty is one of those must-have shoes that should be in every woman’s wardrobe – it’s perfect for every occasion and extremely comfortable. Soft, modern metallic leather gives the Liberty a contemporary yet timeless look.

These boots have a metallic sheen for an extra festive touch!
Take a close look at the heel. Even closer! You see? It’s an optical illusion. The Upstage isn’t as high as you think –
because the footbed is recessed slightly into the heel.

High heels and sore feet? Upstage makes it easy for you with a footbed that’s recessed into the heel and a exible rubber sole that perfectly absorbs shocks under the ball of your foot. Now every woman can be an accomplished heel wearer!
Just about every woman knows the problem: the boots t perfectly but the shaft is too big or too tight. At Wolky we know that no two women’s calves are the same, and we’ve come up with a solution: the Personal Pair Programme, with made-to-measure shafts. Measurements of your calves are taken in three places, and the boot is ordered in the appropriate shaft width. This service is available for our Journey 1733 Joshua, River 0553 Tinto, Upstage 7742 Moss. The delivery time is approximately 21 days. As an extra service, your boots are personalised: your name is printed inside the boot.

The Roll-Moc has been no. 1 in the shoe charts for years. It’s all down to the supporting action of the roll-off toe, the shape that’s perfect for wide feet, the ultra-light PU sole that keeps you rmly in touch with the ground, and the wonderfully soft leather we use to make these shoes.

Since it was launched in 2000, the Roll-Moc has gained an army of fans. This season Wolky presents thirteen models, most of which you can wear all year long.

canto Most slip-on pumps are as comfy as can be – but they often don’t give you much support. Canto brings together the best of both worlds, combining a feminine look with the comfort your feet deserve. Now that’s something to really sing about.
Canto 1912 Sopra / 1910 Capella (2x)
The Canto looks ultra-feminine with a dress or skirt. Round off your out t with a chunky knit cardigan for a cosy, casual look .
A good lining improves the t of a shoe and prolongs its life. That’s why we at Wolky pay particular attention to this part of our shoes and boots. Each one of our warm linings is made of high-quality, soft materials. This extra layer keeps your feet snug – and perspiration-free. Our linings are wear-resistant, quick-drying and soft and shock-absorbing for extra comfort. All our waterproof models also come with a warm lining (except the City-Tracker).

warm li ningIn the winter you want your feet to be warm and dry. So every Wolky fall/winter collection features a num-ber of waterproof models. The stitched seams on these models are sealed to keep moisture out, and there is a special membrane between the lining and the upper leather that keeps water from getting in while allowing perspiration to escape. Wolky uses a high quality lining in its waterproof models that feels wonderfully warm to the touch. The City-Tracker has a leather lining because these walking shoes are also often worn in the summer.
