How to choose the right kitchen shoes in 2025?
Which materials should be preferred?

Opt for waterproof and easy-to-clean materials, such as microfiber or water-repellent leather , which resist liquid splashes, grease, and wear. Non-slip soles made of polyurethane or nitrile rubber provide excellent grip on wet floors while also cushioning impacts. Some models are also antibacterial and designed to minimize the risk of allergies or irritation.
How do I choose the right size shoes?
Comfort starts with the right size . Avoid shoes that are too tight or too loose, as they can cause pain or instability while working. Try on your shoes with thick socks , like the ones you usually wear in the kitchen. Many Manelli models are available in sizes 35 to 48 , with cuts adapted to different foot shapes. Good ankle support and an ergonomic insole are essential, especially for long periods of standing .
What types of shoes should you choose for cooking?
