We’re celebrating the Wool Dream – a sneaker that feels like a little trampoline on your feet. The high-quality ETPU foam stores 100% of the energy it absorbs and returns it to you dynamically with every step. This creates springy walking comfort that noticeably supports you in everyday life, in your free time, in the city and during light outdoor activities. The super-elastic air-cushion sole ensures that every step feels effortless while you stay stable and relaxed – day after day, hour after hour.

 

Dreamlike lightness, tangible drive

What makes this lightness possible? Oval air channels in the sole act like small shock absorbers, reducing impact on hard surfaces while also lowering the shoe’s weight. Narrow energy channels guide your step forwards and give you tangible drive without tiring you out. The textured rubber tread sole offers reliable grip and enables a smooth rolling motion right to the tips of your toes. Enjoy a wearable feeling of lightness that practically lets you float – ideal for long routes through the city, spontaneous detours into the countryside and every moment in between.

360° Merino comfort for long days

Our 360° Merino wool delivers the unmistakable feel-good factor. The temperature-regulating Merino jersey lets your foot slide in effortlessly and keeps the climate pleasant – with no sweat or overheating. The practical heel tab makes slipping in and out easier, while a fine heel cushion pampers you during long periods of walking and standing. Flat laces distribute pressure evenly across the instep, while the soft removable Merino footbed with rebound gently cushions your steps. The result: relaxed feet, light legs and a confident wearing sensation that reliably carries you through long days.

 

Wool Dream: one shoe, endless comfort

Whether you’re discovering new favourite routes or simply want maximum comfort every day, the Wool Dream for women and men combines dynamic sole features with luxurious Merino comfort. The super-elastic air-cushion sole with ETPU rebound gives you perceptible propulsion, while oval cut-outs cushion every impact. Inside, temperature-regulating Merino wool ensures a dry and pleasant foot feel, while the heel tab, padding and flat laces make putting them on, taking them off and achieving the perfect fit effortless. Treat yourself to the feeling of walking on clouds for hours – and experience every step as lighter. Discover it now and fall in love!
