Why thin soles matter

Thick midsoles can disconnect feet from the ground, reducing balance and sensory feedback. Over time, this may weaken natural foot function and coordination.

Thin soles restore that feedback while still protecting from rough surfaces. Flexible rubber lets your foot move and adapt, improving posture and stability in daily life and training.
