Our approach

- Arbesko philosophy

For us, safety and occupational footwear is all about well-being, both in your feet and the rest of your body. After a full day at work, you should feel energetic and revitalised for after-work activities. This is why we produce Stålex (safety footwear) and Arbesko (occupational footwear) with a strong focus on comfort and ergonomics. And we apply a quality approach that is loyal to our genuine history - we practise what we preach.

For example, genuine leather is still the best material for shoes. Arbesko only uses high-quality leather. What´s more, we stubbornly cling to some absolutely fundamental points in the structure of an ergonomically correct shoe. We call it the Stability System, a concept we will never compromise on. After all, quality never goes out of fashion…

Arbesko is also one of the most highly acclaimed companies when it comes to the further development of safety and occupational footwear. We are quick to adopt new materials and technologies, and are happy to use our more than 160 years of experience to add extra comfort to your footwear. This has resulted in unique Arbesko constructions such as Energy Gel for superb shock absorption and the Asymetrix functional sole for highly effective slip resistance.

Our innovative approach and our endeavour to go our own way have led to unique cutting-edge expertise within the Arbesko Group today. Our sister company, Cast Medical AB, produces individualised footbeds in line with a rigorous medical and ergonomic holistic approach.  Our subsidiary  Rebellion Sport AB operates in the field of sports equipment and has, for example, designed an advanced skate that has won the attention of the world´s best ice-hockey league, the NHL.

Together we form a network of knowledge that promises an exiting future. Arbesko plans to invest further in intensive product development with the goal of further strengthening its position.  We live by our old "family formula": to produce high-quality shoes. Shoes that "make a difference".
