The trio of shoes, slides, and flip-flops will support athletes during workouts, races, and all hours in between.
BOULDER, Colo. (Oct. 29, 2024)—ROLL Recovery, an award-winning leader in the recovery and athletic performance space and innovator of deep tissue massage therapy tools, announces the launch of the all-new SUPERPLUSH™ Recovery Footwear collection. The full lineup offers a performance recovery shoe, slide, and flip-flop style in various colorways.
ROLL Recovery’s Proprietary SUPERPLUSH™ foam midsole, composed of algae and EVA with BLOOM Foam Technology—a premium and sustainable foam that reduces carbon footprint and petroleum use— is the line’s foundation. This midsole offers the optimal ratio of cushioning and support to help athletes throughout the many hours of the day that do not involve active training.
While flip flops and slides are coming soon, the collection debuts with the SUPERPLUSH™ Classic closed-toe shoe featuring ORTHOFIT™ support for arch and midfoot comfort. The upper consists of ROLL Recovery’s proprietary AIRYARN™ mesh of recycled PET sourced from ocean plastics. This lightweight, high-stretch yarn offers optimal breathability and comfort. Each style is designed with sizing considerations for men and women, supporting the foot’s structural differences, weight distribution, and required support.
Jeremy Nelson — ROLL Recovery co-founder and engineer, designed and developed the footwear. Nelson is also the visionary and engineer of ROLL Recovery’s flagship and award-winning recovery and massage devices. Like ROLL Recovery’s existing products, Jeremy’s focus on footwear was on quality, comfort, and minimalist design — with sustainability in mind. ROLL Recovery sets out to ensure its recovery footwear delivers optimal comfort, fit, and breathability without excess materials.
“The SUPERPLUSH™ line was created to be a refuge for tired feet and promote overall foot health. At ROLL Recovery, we approach sports recovery from a holistic approach, and we are thrilled to round out our product offerings with footwear that not only feels great and supports athlete recovery but with an aesthetic that looks great enough to wear every day,” said Jeremy Nelson, Co-founder and CEO of ROLL Recovery. “We realized most footwear is designed for looks and not foot health. Too tight and restricting with performance footwear. Too soft, squishy, and unsupportive with recovery footwear currently on the market. So after performing extensive research and design, the SUPERPLUSH™ line was born.”
ROLL Recovery footwear also features a CRADLE DESIGN™ Structured Footbed. It’s not too soft or too rockered—just right. ROLL Recovery’s footwear has an engineered footbed that offers the optimal balance of comfort and structure. It has an ergonomic “cocoon effect” where the user feels that their foot is inside and not simply standing on it.
Thoughts => We spent a few months testing the SUPERPLUSH Classic shoe and found it comfy, soft, stable, and supportive. It had just the right blend of features and functionality to promote recovery for tired feet, especially after a long day of bike riding. Just slip the shoe on; it feels like a favorite bedroom slipper but is still walkable around town. It has lots of room in the toe box (which my wide foot loved) and utilizes lightweight and breathable materials.
“As a professional marathoner, my feet and legs take a pounding, and while we often focus on what shoes we wear to run in, few consider what they wear to help promote recovery after long training sessions. In developing this collection, we were focused on offering footwear that is supremely comfortable and engineered in a way with structured support that reduces pressure on the feet,” added Co-Founder Adriana Nelson. “Last but not least, we are never willing to compromise on the highest quality and sustainable materials.”
