Innovation through tradition

Another well-established tradition at Elten is close cooperation with research experts and academics, as well with experienced manufacturing specialists and users.

Our long-standing relationship with the well-renowned sports medicine faculty at Eberhard-Karls-Universität in Tübingen is widely acclaimed in the industry and has resulted in a number of innovations in R&D. The exlusive ELTEN safety grip sole, for example, that effectively reduces the likelihood of slipping or twisting on ankle was developed jointly with scientists from the university and successfully brought to market by ELTEN.
