Can Heels Be Comfortable? Scholl and Balenciaga Think So

Balenciaga has partnered with the iconic orthopaedic footwear brand Scholl to launch a collaboration that combines the aesthetic of high fashion with the science of comfort. Releasing globally on April 7, 2025, the Balenciaga | Scholl line debuted as part of the Fall 2025 collection, marking a bold step into comfort-centric luxury design. Led by Balenciaga creative director Demna, the collaboration aims to deliver the most comfortable heels ever produced, without compromising the brand’s avant-garde silhouette-driven identity.

SHOES

The partnership draws from Scholl’s history and clinical precision in foot care, combined with Balenciaga’s disruptive, forward-thinking fashion sensibility. Founded over a century ago in Italy, Scholl has built its reputation on developing ergonomically supportive shoes and insoles that prioritize wellness without sacrificing durability or innovation. In this collaboration, Scholl’s foundation in comfort has been reimagined through a fashion lens, reflecting a moment where ergonomics and high design are no longer separate pursuits.

Footwear in the Balenciaga | Scholl collection includes a range of models that span both height and function, heeled mules, booties, and boots join flat sandals and slip-ons. Each is built with Nappa sheepskin uppers and conceals Scholl’s signature cork footbeds, ensuring that every step mirrors the brand’s focus on comfort. The pieces serve as an exploration of what orthopaedic influence can look like when filtered through a luxury fashion house known for its exaggerated forms and subversive design logic.

Among the standout offerings are calfskin sandals that feature exposed cork soles and the instantly recognizable Scholl metal buckle, referencing the classic 1956 Pescura sandal. The collection also includes beechwood platform clogs with perforated uppers, adding a sculptural element, along with co-branded versions of Balenciaga’s popular Pool Slide Sandals.

What distinguishes this collaboration is not only the product offering but the intentionality behind it. Demna’s push for coziness stems from a larger conversation within fashion about practicality, wearability, and how luxury can intersect with physical well-being. By aligning with Scholl, long associated with orthopaedic utility, the collection offers a serious argument for fashion that doesn’t just look radical but feels good to wear.

The Balenciaga | Scholl collaboration reflects a shift in values within contemporary fashion, design that meets the body where it is, not where it’s expected to go. With its unexpected marriage of high-concept design and clinical comfort, the collection demonstrates that innovation need not be at odds with wearability, and that the future of luxury might just be lined with cork.
