This style features our unique FRANKiE4 Four Layer Support & Cushion System.

With body mechanics in mind, the 3 layers are strategically designed to bias support and cushioning where it is needed.

Our heel counters are made from a modern and forgiving thermoplastic, and are designed to be firm enough to assist in the role of holding the foot within the shoe, and forgiving enough to accommodate the heels needed motion while minimising friction and pressure on the skin.

Most of our Sneakers have soles that are dual density polyurethane! Meaning they sport a softer layer for cushioning and support, plus a firmer layer for durability.

Other styles have a specific blown rubber type or EVA. The materials we use in our soles are selected to provide a stable foundation and have a great memory to provide comfort from heel strike to toe off!

The secret to a tailored fit lies in FRANKiE4's Patented* Custom Fit pack. Our Custom Fit pack is included with most enclosed styles. It's all you need to have your feet feeling fab whether you are narrow, wide or a standard width.

Best of all it's super simple, all components are included in the box! To learn more, read here.
