Hundreds of thousands of people are treated every month for chronic hip
and lower back pain that comes back within days of the appointment. For a
significant share of them, the cause is a fraction of an inch, and it
sits below the spine.

All Dr.Obooi's are customizable - but not equaly!

They are building cities in the middle of the ocean, we're sending
people to Mars and building internet from satelites globally. We have
electric cars, we have AI robots but we basicaly make shoes the same way
as the Ancient Romans did?

We think it's time to stop wearing the same sandals as Jesus did an realize it's 2026.
The future is today. Not tomorrow. Today.

You can customize your Ground Feel, Heel Protection & Heel Height and Outside toe protection.
You must also select your FOOT LENGHT for each foot. This is customized without exception - no more guessing!

Our "Levels of Care"

What are Levels of Customisation?

"The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art."

Do I really need Dr.Obooi Sandals? Do they perform as promised?

Performance is guaranteed, but it's crucial that you understand what improvment is?

The famous quote of Leonardo Da Vinci that you just read, holds a lot of truth.

Your feet were built for nature - sand, dirt, rocks - not concrete and tile. But modern life is flat and hard, and your body adapts. Arches collapse, ligaments weaken, and strain shows up in your ankles, knees, hips, even your back.

Even barefoot shoes miss the point if you're not walking on natural surfaces. You’re strengthening your body - but you’re evolving in the wrong direction.

Dr.Obooi changes that. Like a proper custom solution, each sandal is designed to realign and strengthen your foot.

Your body’s always adapting — we make sure it adapts in the right direction. We use the body’s natural adaptability to help restore natural alignment from the feet up.

Yes, the first days might feel strange. That’s the point. Your body is meeting real support.

Start slow. Let your foot adapt. Over time, Dr.Obooi keeps your biomechanics where they should be - strong, supported, and built for real life.

I have had several sandals over the last few years, from everyday to professional use and am loving the versatility and comfort they provide. I have one pair for when I am at home, one for outside and one pair for work. They are robust and durable, you can wash them and they look good wherever you take them.

One leg is shorter than the other. That's why the adjustment only lasts three days.

Hundreds of thousands of people are treated every month for chronic hip and lower back pain that comes back within days of the appointment. For a significant share of them, the cause is a fraction of an inch, and it sits below the spine.

By Jakob ObooiAugust 2026

Jakob Obooi runs the family workshop that makes the sandals described in this article.

Nineteen years of the same boot

My father has worn the same model of boot for nineteen years.

It isn't loyalty. It's the only shoe his cobbler can reliably build up, and rebuilding the heel on a boot he already owns is simpler than starting over with one he'd actually like.

His right leg is half an inch shorter than his left. He found that out at fifty-one.

For most of my twenties I drove him to his appointments. Forty minutes on the table, and he'd come back out to the car standing like a taller man. Friday, good. Saturday, still good. By Monday the hip was catching on the stairs again, and on Wednesday he'd call and rebook.

I want to be careful here, because his chiropractor was excellent and I watched him work for years. The adjustment held for exactly as long as it was capable of holding. Then my father stood up, and the problem came back up with him.

It took our family eleven years to ask a question that should have taken eleven weeks.

What, exactly, was the adjustment being applied to?
