A look behind the scenes from Trifels! What are hiking pope Manuel Andrack, blogger Sandra Wickert, and shoemaker Christof BÄR doing in the Dahner Felsenland? Enjoying Saumagen and Palatinate wine, you might think. But it is much more exciting, because the new BÄRgauf collection was tested here by highly critical users and professionals in the field, who would like to report back to us. Accompanied by a photo team, some fantastic pictures were taken—perhaps they will inspire you to lace up your hiking boots and enjoy this beautiful hiking region in autumn.
Why do BÄR shoes offer a completely new and natural walking experience, even when hiking?
Your feet are optimally supported in BÄR shoes because they follow the natural shape of the foot. Thanks to 100-percent Toe freedom, they provide relaxation and comfort from the very first step. BÄR shoes also stand for flexibility. Hiking shoes that encourage the joy of walking and open up new freedom of movement through a soft, natural, flowing rolling motion.
Walk into autumn relaxed with the new BERGKOMFORT collection. Manuel Andrack and blogger Sandra Wickert are both thrilled with the new BERGKOMFORT. Sandra Wickert described the BÄR wearing experience in these words: “With BÄR shoes, I feel free in the truest sense of the word—because anyone who walks as much as I do doesn’t want to be held back by sore feet.” The blogger reports that she had squeezed her feet into uncomfortable shoes for far too long, because conventional shoes are simply too narrow for her. BÄR shoes have taken on precisely this problem. Feet should be “free.” During the photo shoot, Ms. Wickert wore the BERGKOMFORT hiking shoe made from water-repellent cowhide nubuck leather.
Sandra Wickert: “I admit it, at first it was the turquoise color that won me over (the model is also available in black),” but then the barefoot-like walking experience convinced me. Wickert would have preferred never to take the shoes off.
Manuel Andrack also emphasizes that, for nature-loving people, the journey is usually the destination. In this context, the feeling of being “free”—from head to toe—is important to him. Andrack is certain that with this comfortable hiking boot, every path becomes pure pleasure—“BERGKOMFORT is the joy of hiking!”
With a light step, you can hike confidently and perfectly protected across any terrain.
“Stabilizing yet flexible” is the guiding principle behind FIRMOFLEX®, the technology developed by BÄR and submitted for patent approval. It promises lateral stability while allowing flexibility in the direction of movement, preventing pressure and collapse in the forefoot. At the same time, this technology supports the foot’s rolling motion.
The BERGKOMFORT collection stands for the highest-quality BÄR craftsmanship. The use of environmentally responsibly produced, water-repellent terracare® leather, together with a Memory Foam lining that surrounds the foot, provides optimal cushioning. That means nothing stands in the way of your next hike—and it will be exceptionally comfortable too!
BÄRgauf.
