Shoes with removable footbed

If your orthopedist has prescribed custom-made insoles, you don’t have to give up the joy of dancing. At Werner Kern, you’ll find a wide selection of men’s dance shoes suitable for insoles, as they feature a removable footbed that can easily be replaced with your orthopedic inserts. Since 2018, we have been developing men’s dance shoes specifically for insole wearers that are particularly comfortable and pleasant to wear.

The Secret of Our Men's Dance Shoes

For insoles, you need special shoes with a removable insole, as the orthopedic insert should support and stabilize the foot without constricting it. Depending on the model, Werner Kern men's dance shoes for insoles are equipped with either a leather-covered removable footbed or a replaceable insole, giving you the flexibility you need.

Classic men’s dance shoes for insoles from Werner Kern are lovingly handcrafted in Italy and stand out for their supple, high-quality materials and comfortable fit. Depending on the model, they feature a 1.5 cm or 2.0 cm heel, which also provides shock-absorbing cushioning. The upper material used for these premium dance shoes for insole wearers meets the highest quality standards. Only genuine high-grade leathers such as goat or lamb nappa leather are used, crafted by skilled local artisans in Italy — the homeland of fine footwear. Whenever possible, we also source other materials such as heels, soles, and decorative elements from regional manufacturers nearby. This way, we help preserve traditional craftsmanship while maintaining our high quality standards, appreciated and loved in over 50 countries worldwide. All Werner Kern dance shoes, whether for women or men, are exceptionally comfortable to wear — even after many hours on the dance floor. This is made possible through tried-and-tested lasts, breathable and soft materials, and masterful craftsmanship.

For dance training, Kizomba, or Bachata, we recommend our ultra-light men’s dance shoes for insole wearers. The “Suny” models by Anna Kern are not only extremely lightweight but also provide exceptional breathability and comfort. The two-part PU sole ensures maximum flexibility and controlled glide on the dance floor. With a comfortable 1.0 cm heel and integrated cushioning, these men’s dance shoes are ideal for insoles. The dance sneakers are made from flexible knit material that adapts perfectly to your feet. A high-quality, breathable, and moisture-absorbing inner lining ensures the perfect wearing and dancing experience.

You just feel the difference

Dance shoes differ significantly from regular shoes because they are specifically designed for dancing: the smooth suede or PU sole is ideal for polished floors and allows perfectly controlled turns on the heel or ball of the foot. Werner Kern dance shoes are not just ordinary dance shoes — for more than 50 years, we have dedicated ourselves entirely to designing, manufacturing, and selling dance shoes of exceptional quality for both women and men. Our shoes simply make dancing more enjoyable, as they are made to follow your feet’s natural movements while dancing. Every pair of our men’s dance shoes for insoles embodies years of experience — our lasts have been tested by thousands of dancers over decades and continuously refined and improved by us.

Through the interplay of fine materials, thoughtful design, decades of last development, and meticulous craftsmanship at every production stage, we create unique men’s dance shoes for insoles that let you glide effortlessly across the dance floor. Our dance shoes stand out for their superior comfort, reliable support, and optimal protection for joints, tendons, and bones — and, of course, their sleek and elegant design.
