Based on Years of Research

PubMed studies show that proper footwear can reduce foot complications by up to 60%. That's why we designed Root with features that actually matter: cushioning that relieves pressure, a wide toe box, waterproof, stability support, and non-slip soles.

We packed in the science, but kept the style. Because your shoes should protect your feet, but also look modern.

Gamechanger for my feet

I couldn’t believe how quickly these helped. Within just two weeks the heel pain was almost gone. I wear them every day now — even indoors.

Perfect for long days on my feet

Working shifts on hard floors destroyed my feet. These gave me real relief after just 2–3 weeks. They’re supportive without looking bulky. Highly recommend.

Even my knees feel better

I walk my dog every morning and used to get foot and knee pain. These shoes took the pressure off. Within 2 weeks I noticed real improvement. Great balance of support and flexibility.

Finally shoes that fit wide feet

They’re airy, soft and supportive. I have wide feet and usually struggle, but these felt perfect from day one. After 3 weeks, the soreness was totally gone. Looks good too — not too “medical”.
