Maratown is on a mission to make the most comfortable dress shoes, combining a cushioned running shoe sole with a minimalist dress shoe upper. The result: the Maratown's running dress shoes.
Designed for plantar fasciitis, heel pain, long shifts, and long commutes:
Triple-layer sole with soft EVA for shock absorption, medium EVA for support and stability, and rubber outsole for durability. A top rocker and bendable sole that ease and support natural flexion at the metatarsals, combined with a soft leather upper that won't hurt your feet—ideal for relieving forefoot pressure and discomfort caused by metatarsalgia, bunions, diabetic foot sensitivity, and stiff joints.*
One third less weight on your feet when walking (measured with insole pressure sensors), thanks to Maratown's highly-cushioned soles. Feel light and enjoy superior protection and anti-fatigue properties.
Designed with a wide, stable base and a rocker sole, Maratown shoes help reduce strain on your feet and joints—making them ideal for anyone dealing with plantar fasciitis, heel pain, flat feet, or just long days on their feet.*
By absorbing impacts, Maratown shoes are designed to help ease discomfort associated with plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis, arthritis and joint pain, heel spurs, fat pad syndrome, metatarsalgia, bunions, and diabetic foot.
Maratown’s sole shape and dual-density support evenly distribute weight from heel to arch to forefoot, helping relieve plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgia, and general arch or heel pain. With a rear height of 1.85 in (47 mm) and front height of 1.26 in (32 mm), the 15mm heel-to-toe drop —reduced at impact by sole compression—helps reduce stress on the heel and Achilles tendon*.
Unlike typical dress shoes, where minimal cushioning relies on the insole, Maratown allows you to insert your own orthotic insole while still benefiting from 100% of the cushioning provided by the midsole, a feature beneficial for those with plantar fasciitis, flat feet, high arches, heel spurs, or overpronation.*
Fit is essential for comfort. Maratown shoes are available in medium and wide fits. Each pair includes volume adjusters to place beneath the insole. For additional room, the soft leather and soft foam welt allow to naturally stretch—providing relief for bunions and other width-related foot issues.
Maratown offers a breathable, soft full-grain leather upper and lining that won’t crease into your feet—helping reduce irritation and pressure for sensitive feet, bunions, hammertoes, and diabetic foot conditions.
Maratown’s upper quarters are designed without stitches around the metatarsals to reduce pressure and discomfort for those with bunions, hammertoes, or neuromas. Additionally, Maratown minimizes interior stitching and hard points, offering a smooth, comfortable fit for sensitive or diabetic feet, and those prone to blisters or skin irritation.
Maratown shoes are crafted in Portugal, adhering to European health and safety standards. They are made with certified, non-hazardous materials that prioritize both sustainability and foot health. MARATOWN are stored and shipped from our warehouses in the USA and France.
The shoes are very comfortable especially if you work on your feet. It’s only when you revert back to traditional dress shoes, you suddenly realise immense benefits of Maratown shoes. I’ve been wearing Maratown for years and I do not understand why this brand is underrated. I wish them success and the market dominance they deserve. Lastly a big bonus of buying Maratown is the super-attentive customer Care / aftercare which I’ve put to the test on several occasions over the years.

Other brands claim to have comfortable soles, but they don't come anywhere near these. One example is Samuel Hubbard. Their soles *look* like these from Maratown, but they're nothing like them. The Hubbard soles are very stiff, and the shoes just aren't comfortable to me. I've only tried them on in the store, so they may get softer over time, but I don't know. These Maratown soles, however, feel absolutely wonderful right out of the box. And the leather is simply on another level of softness.

I am receipt of your new Dress Maratown shoes. Where do I start. First of the customer service was amazing since I did have to move up a size which you guys took great care of me. Second is the big quality, literally out of control and was blown away by what you get for your money. For me the real blessing is the fact I do suffer with Bi-Lateral Achilles tendinopathy on both my feet and I got these shoes in somewhat desperation since I tried every so called supportive and cushioned shoe on the market with special materials or special springs and none of them worked for me until I got your product. As an inventor of over 30 fitness product patents I know quality and design when I see it. Anyway, I look forward to getting the casual shoe to go with my dress shoes next. Amazing product, thanks again!!
