Shoe development
Developed and designed in Germany
As a leading manufacturer, we are committed to preserving the anatomy of the human foot and thus its natural function and mobility as best as possible. Our product development team in Straelen on the Lower Rhine is constantly researching innovative materials, technologies, and ideas that enhance the well-being and health of wearers.
At Baak, we develop safety shoes that go further.
We were the first manufacturer to recognize the advantages of lightweight, cushioning EVA material (high rebound) from the running shoe sector and successfully introduced it to the safety shoe industry.
Safety is a matter of course - health is our aspiration
At Baak, we go beyond mere compliance with safety standards. Our focus is on supporting the long-term health of every wearer. Because only safety shoes that follow the natural movements of the foot can provide lasting relief for muscles, joints and the entire musculoskeletal system.
To achieve this, we developed the patented Baak Go&Relax system. The combination of a flex cap, flex zone, and H-joint in the outsole enables a natural rolling motion over the metatarsophalangeal joints, keeping feet flexible, the body fit, and people healthy in the long term.
