At Creekside Performance Center, we understand the crucial role that proper footwear plays in maintaining optimal performance. We’ve been on the hunt for brands that provide great quality shoes…Just ask the front desk how many different pairs get sent to the office 🙂 This Footwear February, we've partnered with Lems Shoes to highlight a great natural footwear choice.
Lems Shoes is a brand dedicated to creating footwear that mimics the natural shape of the human foot. With a focus on foot health and biomechanics, Lems Shoes provides a minimalist design that allows your feet to move naturally, fostering strength and flexibility, while still providing protection and support for the foot. Lems shoes are zero drop shoes. Zero-drop refers to the angle between your heel and your toes. Traditional footwear elevates the heel an average of 14-24 mm (0.5″-1.0″), which alters foot forces and an unnatural heel strike. In a zero-drop shoe, your heel and toes are level, which mimics your natural barefoot position on a flat surface.
Lems believes that shoes should be built around the natural shape of the human foot, and not the other way around. This means that a shoe should be widest at the forefoot and toes, while allowing for full flexibility and unrestricted movement.
Dr. Tislau and Dr. Kornetzke have had the chance to wear Lems over the last few weeks and we are really impressed with the quality, comfort, fit, and style of their footwear. They love the wide toe box and feel as well as the zero drop which makes you feel more connected with the ground surface. Their customer support is also amazing!
If you have any questions about footwear be sure to ask at your next visit.
