Family-owned business

Family business owner Steffen Schmutz

“My great-great-grandfather was already a master shoemaker. So my love for the shoemaking craft was practically instilled in me from birth. That’s why it was a true passion of mine to carry on this long family tradition. Fashion that’s fun for your feet, too—that’s the challenge for which my team and I are constantly finding attractive, exclusive, and comfortable solutions.”
Steffen Schmutz, owner and managing director of VITAFORM

VITAFORM Delivers Comfort for the 4th Generation

When Ruth and Ewald Schmutz started their own business in Feldstetten in 1982
So, without further ado, the basement of their own home was converted into a shoemaker’s workshop—marking the birth of the VITAFORM company. Even today, masterful handcrafted creations are still produced with the same dedication in our Production. However, at that time, no one could have imagined that VITAFORM would become one of the leading names in the market for stylish and comfortable shoes some 40 years later. Some of the employees from back then are still part of the company’s success story today.

VITAFORM continues this tradition to this day

Four generations later—following in the footsteps of Steffen Schmutz’s great-great-grandfather—the Schmutz family remains dedicated to the shoemaking trade.
Artisanal quality continues to play a special role in the production of VITAFORM comfort shoes: from last-making to hand-stitched soles. Our shoes combine meticulous craftsmanship with innovative ideas and the highest Quality Requirements for Materials. VITAFORM also focuses on innovation and staying on top of trends in its designs. With fresh shapes and colors, these shoes from the Swabian Alb spark a passion for fashion.
