Scholl: Pioneering Foot Comfort Since 1904
Dr. William Scholl embarked on a journey to revolutionize foot care in 1904, shortly after becoming a qualified doctor at just 22 years old. His first breakthrough came with the invention of the Foot-Eazer, an innovative insert designed to reinforce and support the foot arch. This marked the birth of Scholl Manufacturing Co. Inc. in 1907, setting the stage for a legacy of comfort and innovation.
In 1912, Dr. Scholl founded the Illinois College of Chiropody and Orthopaedics, a pioneering institution that placed science at the forefront of developing foot care solutions. This commitment to scientific excellence led to the creation of iconic products like the Pescura sandals in the 1960s, featuring an anatomically crafted beechwood footbed that not only provided comfort but also helped tone the legs with every step.
Over the years, Scholl has continued to evolve, embracing new technologies and innovations to meet the changing needs of consumers. From the introduction of the Party Feet line in 2003, combining comfort and style, to the launch of the Express Pedi in 2013, Scholl remains dedicated to improving the health, comfort, and well-being of people by caring for their feet. With a rich history spanning over a century, Scholl's commitment to foot care continues to resonate with generations, embodying a legacy of comfort, innovation, and timeless style.
