Nice that you are here!
Since its foundation in 1992, Baak has stood for safety, innovation and responsibility. As a family-run company based in the Lower Rhine region of Germany, we develop and design safety shoes that are consistently geared towards human physiology.
Safety is a given; health is our commitment.
Baak safety shoes combine ergonomic design with the latest technology and set new standards for comfort and protection in the workplace.
Work shoes that follow the human anatomy
Healthier walking with safety shoes from Baak
We have made our philosophy the guiding principle for our daily thoughts and actions. Our slogan "unbox your nature" stands for:
- Unfold instead of restricting
- Support rather than control
- Move instead of blocking
Movement is a chain that begins in the foot. Many conventional safety shoes restrict this natural sequence of movements, causing the body to adopt an unnatural posture. This can result in health problems in the feet, knees, hips, or back, which can even lead to chronic pain in the long term.
This does not happen because the body is "malfunctioning," but because it is prevented from performing its natural movements.
Safety shoes with the integrated Baak Go&Relax system support the natural rolling motion of the feet, enabling a natural sequence of movements that corresponds to how nature intended the human body to move.
Good to know: All Baak safety shoes come with the Go&Relax system as standard.
The human body knows how movement works. Our job is to let it work naturally.

Shoe development
Developed and designed in Germany
As a leading manufacturer, we are committed to preserving the anatomy of the human foot and thus its natural function and mobility as best as possible. Our product development team in Straelen on the Lower Rhine is constantly researching innovative materials, technologies, and ideas that enhance the well-being and health of wearers.
At Baak, we develop safety shoes that go further.
We were the first manufacturer to recognize the advantages of lightweight, cushioning EVA material (high rebound) from the running shoe sector and successfully introduced it to the safety shoe industry.

Safety is a matter of course - health is our aspiration
At Baak, we go beyond mere compliance with safety standards. Our focus is on supporting the long-term health of every wearer. Because only safety shoes that follow the natural movements of the foot can provide lasting relief for muscles, joints and the entire musculoskeletal system.
To achieve this, we developed the patented Baak Go&Relax system. The combination of a flex cap, flex zone, and H-joint in the outsole enables a natural rolling motion over the metatarsophalangeal joints, keeping feet flexible, the body fit, and people healthy in the long term.
The decisive kink for a better quality of life
A safety shoe should always allow the foot to do what it can do naturally: move freely. This is exactly what the patented Baak Go&Relax System. Through the targeted combination of innovative elements, it supports the natural rolling process and allows the important bending over the metatarsophalangeal joints.
Why is this so important? Because this movement pattern is the basis for a relaxed gait, strengthens muscles and joints, and relieves strain on the entire body. This results in a low-fatigue flow of movement throughout the entire working day – noticeably comfortable, healthy in the long term, and a real gain in quality of life.
