About us – Scholl UK

Since our humble beginnings in a Chicago shoe-shop, our purpose has always been clear – to help the world think differently about their feet.

That hasn’t changed, and it never will. It is through helping people understand why they should care for their feet that we inspire them to act.

As we champion healthy feet, we champion the benefits they bring with them; freedom, agility, and a can-do attitude.

We believe in healthy feet,
from heel to toe.

1904

From discomfort to
the Foot-Eazer

Shortly after qualifying as a doctor in 1904, at 22 years of age, he patented his first invention: the Foot-Eazer. It was a revolutionary product at the time – an insert placed in shoes to reinforce and support the foot arch. In 1907 he founded Scholl Manufacturing Co. Inc.

1917

Dr.Scholl's Illinois College of Chiropody and Orthopaedics

Putting science at the heart of inventing and developing products, in 1912 William Scholl founded the Illinois College of Chiropody and Orthopaedics – soon to become the most important teaching institution in its field in the United States of America. He offered free foot examinations and created an Annual National Foot Comfort Week too.

1961

From exercise routines
to Pescura sandals

In the 60's we boomed. Scholl's Pescura sandals were developed with an anatomically crafted beechwood footbed, helping to tone the legs at every step. They rapidly became an international success, with celebrities like models Twiggy and Jean Shrimpton wearing them – turning them into a renowned style and comfort icon.
