“In the beginning there was a doctor's advice: runners should run barefoot. Helmuth Ohlhoff, co-founder and managing director of leguano, took this advice seriously. In 2009, after five years of development, the first leguano came out. Today leguano makes its shoes in its own workshop in Buchholz im Westerwald.”
