Light on the Feet, Clear in Stance

PRESS RELEASE Hamburg, May 21, 2025

Freedom to wear – when design is not just form, but possibility.

After a creative break, HIGH FEELS is back – with minimalist sandals that are uncompromisingly comfortable and make a statement. Our shoes are more than a product. They are an appeal for clarity, consciousness, and freedom of movement – physically and mentally.

HIGH FEELS stands for design that goes beyond appearance. Our sandals are featherlight, flexible, vegan, and fairly produced. They follow the body's natural movements – and support a lifestyle that neither restricts nor pretends. Each model is versatile, reduced, and functional – without sacrificing aesthetics.

"We wanted to develop shoes that don’t slow us down – but accompany us"

– says Yamina [YouTube: Moin Yamina], co-founder of HIGH FEELS and responsible for the design concept and functional product development.

"Barefoot feeling meets clarity in design. Nothing is excessive, everything has meaning."

Freedom you can feel. Stance you can see.
What we wear influences how we move – through space, through the day, through life.
HIGH FEELS designs shoes for people who don’t want to choose between comfort, style, and conviction.

Our Principles

  • Design for movement: Shoes that adapt to the body – not the other way around.
  • Sustainability: Durable materials, plastic-free packaging.
  • Ethics: Vegan and fairly produced, thoughtfully transparent.
  • Reduction over renunciation: Less visual noise, more impact.

HIGH FEELS stands for a new way of dressing – not to stand out, but to rediscover oneself.
We believe: Those who walk freely change how the world feels.

About HIGH FEELS

HIGH FEELS began with a simple question: Why aren’t there any shoes that feel free and look great at the same time? In 2016 [Kickstarter campaign], Yamina and Daniel founded a label to make exactly this possible – with vegan sandals, minimalist in design, uncompromising in comfort and conviction. After a creative break, we’re back. Clearer, with renewed energy – and strengthened by Sophia, who plays an important role in the brand’s ongoing development.
HIGH FEELS remains a promise to all who walk consciously through life – light on the feet, clear in stance. [Full story]
