Information on the background of Duckfeet

Duckfeet shoes were originally designed in 1975 by Claus and Inga Weichmann, in 2004 Duckfeet was taken over by Marcus and Vibeke who are still committed to creating shoes in the traditional way which give a healthy fit and use proper materials and high quality craftsmanship.

Duckfeet have been at the height of popularity since the 1070s when they were the must-have shoes. Since then they have continued to be popular with all ages and have even been featured on the catwalk shows of hip Scandinavian designers who recognise the high quality and craftsmanship of Duckfeet shoes.

The materials used in Duckfeet shoes are hand picked for their quality, durability and low environmental impact. The leather used is produced in Scandinavia and is of exceptionally high quality. The tanning process has been streamlined to be as environmentally friendly as possible so combines a mix of vegetable and traditional tanning methods to produce leather that still retains its small differences giving an individual, varied surface so no two pairs are exactly alike.

The crepe rubber that is used for the outsole is another natural product that is extracted in the tropics and processed into shoe soles in Europe. Even the fur featured in Duckfeet winter boots is 100% new European sheep’s wool.

Information on the benefits of Duckfeet

All Duckfeet shoes are made using high quality natural materials and are completely free of synthetic materials. Each pair of shoes is a beacon of Danish design with beautiful style and quality craftsmanship but they don’t just look good, they are also exceptionally comfortable to walk in and look after your feet with every step.

The leather upper and insole allows your feet to breathe and transports moisture away from them while the crepe rubber sole absorbs impact when walking to relieve the pressure on the joints. With Duckfeet you can enjoy the sensation of a quality product that has been made using natural and environmentally friendly products so not only do your feet feel great but your green conscience does too!
