HISTORY Geox Shoes are the shoes that breathe. Geox was born when founder Mario Moretti Polegato was jogging and decided to cut holes in the outsole to cool his feet. This innovative shoe design has quickly become a favorite worldwide, instantly showcasing new technology for comfort and with it, an advanced design that encompasses sport, casual and dress shoe looks. The Geox breathes® patented system contains micro-holes in the rubber outsole let perspiration from the feet out of the shoes and the breathable membrane keeps water out and the feet dry.
PERFORATED OUTSOLE Geox outsole challenged the historical conception of holes in shoes - the first step of the Geox revolution. A series of holes were made in the rubber outsole, positioned in correspondence of the highest concentration of sweat glands under the foot sole.
THE MEMBRANE The Geox membrane is made of special micro-porous material which absorbs sweat through the insole and lets it out in the form of water vapour. The membrane’s micropores are larger than water vapour molecules, but smaller than water droplets.
THE BENEFIT It is natural to sweat through the feet - it is unhealthy to keep the sweat inside of the shoes. The thermographic test shows that by eliminating humidity from the inside shoe, Geox system allows balancing the ideal microclimate inside the footwear, with the result of dry feet, much less overheated than feet wearing shoes with conventional rubber soles.
It’s not often that you find a shoe company that seamlessly brings fashion, technology and comfort together in one. Geox is just such a company. The history of the brand is based on a great story – their founder Mario Polegato was annoyed by how hot is feet were getting on a run and decided to cut holes in the outsole of his shoes to cool his feet.
