legero is introducing a new comfort feature in its current Autumn/Winter 2026 collection. With ‘Step-In by legero’, the brand is launching models that are easy to slip on.
The new feature is in line with legero’s brand philosophy: to develop shoes that make the active everyday lives of their wearers noticeably easier. This is exactly where ‘Step-In by legero’ comes in. Thanks to a specially designed heel section, the shoe can be put on effortlessly – without bending down or manually opening it.
Visually appealing, discreet integration
The design team paid particular attention to integrating the function harmoniously into the shoe design. Instead of strongly flared heel caps, legero relies on a discreetly designed construction that combines comfort and aesthetics. ‘With “Step-In by legero”, we are adopting a technology that has already proven itself on the market and fits perfectly with our comfort expertise. Our aim was to implement this function in a way that is both practical and visually appealing,’ says Wendy Cullingford, Head of the legero Business Unit.
First models in the current collection – further expansion planned
In the Autumn/Winter 2026 season, “Step-In by legero” will be featured in the women’s collection on some TANARO 5.0 models and for men on some styles from the new ANZIO group. In selected models, the new feature is also combined with GORE-TEX®: the combination of waterproof functionality and comfortable entry offers retailers an additional selling point. An expansion of the range is planned for the spring/summer 2027 season. With ‘Step-In by legero’, the brand is taking another step towards functional comfort innovation – and retail partners an attractive feature that meets the desire of many consumers for even greater everyday practicality.
