Hiking on a new comfort level

Thanks to a new technology in the midsole, the comfort of the BÄR Shoes BERGKOMFORT 2.0 has been elevated to a new level.

Since its foundation, the German manufacturer BÄR Shoes has gone its own way by incorporating a distinctive feature in its shoes – a wide toe box. This feature, which initially seemed unusual, has earned the brand a special place in the field of footwear production. The toes have more space to spread out than in comparable shoe models from other manufacturers, while the foot still receives optimal stability, preventing it from slipping back and forth during hikes. This is the background to BÄR’s well-known construction method.

The BERGKOMFORT 2.0, which was awarded an ISPO Award, can be added to the previously described features, further complementing the comfort of the shoe. The balance with which this shoe was able to convince the jury is remarkable. The upper is made of breathable nubuck leather, and the new midsole technology ensures optimal stability even in rough terrain. The newly developed and patent-pending Firmoflex (R) technology, which incorporates built-in horizontal struts in the forefoot area of the midsole, is responsible for this feature. It is an innovative solution that also ensures correct and flexible rolling, preventing malpositions. BÄR follows a consistent path when it comes to sustainability, which was another important point in the jury’s decision making. For example, BÄR is ISO 45001 certified for health and safety management. “BÄR Shoes are already a sustainable product due to the product and production philosophy,” says CEO Christof Bär.

The extended development time has paid off. The principle of wide toe space from BÄR Shoes is well-known. However, with the BERGKOMFORT 2.0, the brand has once again established itself in the field of comfortable mountain hiking boots. This development has achieved a very well-balanced character in the midsole area, where stability and comfort go hand in hand. The feel-good effect sets in immediately with this remarkable hiking shoe.«
