Lechal: Interactive haptic footwear
Get to Know Lechal
Lechal is the world's first haptic footwear offering a whole new way to navigate and experience the world. Lechal is for everyone - people who are interested in wearable's, people who like to travel and explore, people who like to keep track of fitness metrics, cyclists, runners, etc.

Lechal's genesis was the simple impulse to use haptic technology to help the visually-impaired navigate their worlds better. Today, Lechal is a fashion and lifestyle brand that specializes in disruptive innovations that smoothly integrates into the everyday.

We faced all the challenges a start-up faces and more since no one was really talking about wearables in 2011. The last few years has seen wearable technology become a buzzword but in 2011, no one quite knew what we were talking about.

That's when Lechal evolved into a mass-market product and options such as the Lechal insole were created. We wanted to use it ourselves! So, the product has gradually evolved in to what it is today.

Lechal footwear is powered by a pair of compact and cutting-edge pods. Snap into either the insoles or the shoes, connect to the Lechal app, and your footwear is instantly smarter and ready to show you the world.
