Our shoes soles are made of EcoPure and incorporate Rackle’s proprietary PLEXUS ARCH design. EcoPure foam promotes bio-degradation – it begins to break down after 1 year in active enclosed landfill conditions. The PLEXUS ARCH with its raised ribbed arch design stimulates the foot where veins in the arch area meet (plexus) during forward motion (e.g. walking, etc.). PLEXUS ARCH technology offers recovery and comfort for people on the go.
