Best Walking Shoes

Z-CoiL^® Pain Relief Footwear^® were designed for people who are on their feet! Read below to understand how the shoes were ergonomically designed for people who are active and want to remain that way! They are the best walking shoes ever!

Watch this video to see how Z-CoiL Footwear were built to be the best walking shoes ever!

I used to have constant foot pain, when wearing regular sneakers and shoes at work. By the end of my 10 hour day, I was exhausted from walking about 6 miles on the warehouse floor. I have been wearing my z-coil sneakers for 2 weeks. I love them. I still have some foot pain from my neuropathy, but my foot pain has been reduced. I can walk a lot faster. I am 52 years old, but I walk as fast as if I was 20. Plus I have no leg pain, and I have no hip pain either. I tell everyone who asks, that I love my z-coil shoes. I plan on buying another pair of z-coil shoes in a few months. I prefer to not wear the same pair of shoes, two days in a row. Plus I also love the z-coil socks. They wick sweat away from my feet. My feet feel a lot better at work, since purchasing these fine products from z-coil.

I have been wearing Z-coil for over 5 years. I walk anywhere from 305 miles 4-5 times a week and do not have the knee pain I used to have wearing other shoes. They are roomy enough to place an insert in without feeling like you are walking out of your shoes.

These shoes are great! I was ready for a wheel chair because my feet hurt so bad. Inserts were no longer doing the job. Then I tried a pair of Z Coil shoes. After 2 hours of shopping you couldn't pay me to take them off. I haven't worn anything else since then. That was about 10 years ago and I've worn out 2 pair and a third is ready to replace. Right now I own 4 pair. They are the only reason I am still walking.

I have been wearing the Freedom Z-Coil shoes for over 10 years - they are wonderful for walking long distances. They have protected my knees from further orthopedic problems. Also - I used to get Achilles heel problems - and now I never do - and I walk 2 to 4 miles a day!

The Z-CoiL Spring:

The Z-CoiL Spring makes each step safer and softer. The unique replaceable conical coil design reduces impact up to 60%* more than conventional shoes. And since impact is the primary cause of foot, leg and back pain, your body will notice an immediate difference. Walking in Z-CoiL is unlike anything you have felt before. Some people describe the feeling like gliding. Each step feels easy, light and enjoyable. Your body will love the Z-CoiL Spring. Not only does the Z-CoiL Spring reduce impact, it can control over-pronation. Over-Pronation is when your feet roll too far inward when walking or running. The spring can be adjusted in 90°increments to add more resistance to the inside of the foot, to correct over-pronation. Last but not least, when the rubber heel pad wears out on the spring, you can simply replace the spring unit (open or enclosed) rather than replace your Z-CoiL! This saves money and reduces unnecessary waste in landfills.

Z-Orthotic:

The Z-Orthotic is a “rigid” foundation built into every Z-CoiL extending from the ball of the foot to the heel. It works by mirroring the shape of your foot which equalizes pressure across your bottom of your foot, reducing fatigue and pressure points. Equally important the Z-Orthotic supports your plantar ligaments which eliminate painful conditions in the foot like plantar fascia and heel spurs. You will notice improved posture, stability and confidence in each step. The Z-Orthotic makes walking or hiking on uneven or hard surfaces a breeze. Custom orthotics can be used in Z-CoiL footwear, but are often unnecessary, since the built-in Z-Orthotic is more than sufficient.

Additional Features:

Additional features include rocker bottom sole in the forefoot that assists your foot during toe-off. A built-in flex line in the ball of the foot encourages a natural bending motion during toe-off. An extra thick forefoot and extra wide toe box dramatically relieve pressure on forefoot/metatarsal joints when walking and standing. The combination of conical Spring, Z-Orthotic, Forefoot Rocker and ¾ forefoot cushioning protects and comforts your foot. Z-CoiL acts as protective barrier between your foot and the damaging affects of repetitive impact on hard surfaces. Give your precious feet the support and impact protection they deserve, and they will serve you with miles and miles of uncomplaining service.

More on the Z-CoiL^® Technology...

Z-CoiL^® Pain Relief Footwear's revolutionary technology isn't really revolutionary at all. It's evolutionary. It's engineered to help you stride the way the human body was designed to, in an environment that the human body was not designed for.

Gait Cycle and the Kinetic Chain

Humans propel themselves through the concrete jungle the same way they have for thousands of years: heel strike → full forefoot load →heel lift → toe off. During a normal gait cycle, your heel makes contact and immediately redistributes the force—twice your body weight on each foot—up along the side of your foot, the part of your foot designed to actually absorb impact and transfer energy to continue forward motion. However, not all impact is transferred up your foot. Much energy is transferred along what chiropractors call the kinetic chain: heels → ankles → shins → knees → thighs → hips → pelvic girdle/lower back.

Unlike the environments our ancestors walked, today's concrete and other hard surfaces are much less forgiving, resulting in significantly more stress to the body. Every day we experience thousands of collisions with the ground. The greater impact delivered up the kinetic chain, sometimes exacerbated by an improper gait cycle (over-pronation or supination), compromise the human body's ability to absorb and redistribute stress forces, causing injuries.

Impact Reduction, Stability and the Problem with Modern Footwear

Preventing stress injury and providing relief for existing injuries requires impact reduction—i.e., footwear that actually limits the amount of force that travels up the kinetic chain. However, cushioning impact alone will not ensure healthy joints and pain relief. Shoes that offer extra padding actually encourage atrophy in the muscles of the foot. Weak muscles can lead to a number of compensating movements, many of which direct stress forces to areas of the foot that are not designed to absorb impact. Unfortunately, most modern footwear has taken an either-or approach to solving the problem of increased impact along the kinetic chain. Either they provide cushiony soles to reduce the force of impact but allow the flexibility for soft tissues to move outside a normal range of motion, or they provide a rigid sole to keep the foot (and stress forces) in a natural range of motion but with very little impact-absorption, resulting in high impact all the way up the kinetic chain.

The Z-CoiL Solution

Z-CoiL Pain Relief Footwear is the only shoe that offers both the impact reduction and stability you need for pain relief, injury prevention and whole body support Z-CoiL shoes have the:

Patented conical spring in the heel, which reduces impact by 40-60% (according to tests performed by the American Department of Energy) and provides energy return, reducing fatigue.
Patented Z-Orthotic™ to stabilize tendons and ligaments.
Rocker bottom sole that assists forward motion and limits movement during toe-off.
Flex line at the forefront of the foot to encourage bending at the ball of the foot.
¾” Cushioning in the forefoot to protect delicate metatarsal/forefoot joints, ligaments and bones.
Extra wide toe box to relieve pressure on toe joints.

All elements of our shoe design provide Z-CoiL treatment—effective pain relief from a number of lower body impact-induced conditions.

How Z-CoiL Footwear Works

Z-CoiL footwear is engineered to provide unparalleled comfort and pain relief, enabling you to walk, run, and stand with ease. Here’s a breakdown of how our innovative technology works.

Product features

Coil

Shock Absorption: The signature Z-Coil spring in the heel acts like a shock absorber, reducing impact by up to 50%. This significantly minimizes pressure on your feet, legs, and back, helping to alleviate pain from conditions like plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, and arthritis.
Energy Return: The coil also returns 40-50% of the energy with each step, reducing fatigue and enhancing your endurance throughout the day.

Built-In Orthotic

Support and Stability: Our shoes come with a built-in orthotic that supports the plantar ligaments, stabilizing your foot and improving posture. This helps prevent over-pronation and supination, ensuring a balanced and comfortable gait.
Pressure Distribution: The Z-Orthotic evenly distributes pressure across your foot, reducing stress on specific areas and preventing pain from developing.
