E-Springs

Energising Footwear

The technology has been developed by Harrison Spinks, a fifth-generation luxury mattress manufacturer based in Leeds, United Kingdom. A family owned and run business dating back to 1840 and is one of Great Britain’s most established and innovative bed makers, having won two Queen’s Awards for Enterprise in 2018 along with many other accolades.

Game Changing Innovation for Shoes

Suitable for all footwear applications, E-springs can be supplied in a number of configurations to suit your requirements. Extensive testing showed a configuration of 11 springs in the forefoot and 6 springs in the heel of each shoe, give the ultimate performance across all adult sizes. The spring pads can be added to a variety of midsole constructions by creating a suitable cavity for the springs to drop into. It is also possible to just use the springs in the heel or forefoot.
