From June 26 to 28, the Paul Carroll team joined leading podiatry professionals at the Australian Podiatry Conference 2025 on the Gold Coast to represent the house brand Klouds. 

Hosted by the Australian Podiatry Association (APodA), the three-day conference brought together over 1,000 podiatry professionals, students and industry leaders. International and local keynote speakers were featured as well as cutting-edge research and the latest innovations, alongside a large trade exhibition. 

The event offered an incredible opportunity to immerse ourselves in the evolving world of podiatric care and footwear. Here at Paul Carroll, we are dedicated to staying at the forefront of foot health innovation.

We attended:

• A bustling trade exhibition exploring new technology and footwear solutions
• Networking opportunities with podiatrists, students, and industry professionals

Continuing Our Foot Health Support with Key Insights 

As Klouds is committed to comfort and foot wellness, attending APodA gave us valuable discoveries into what matters most to podiatrists and their patients. 

It was an opportunity to:

• Deepen our understanding of podiatric needs, challenges and treatment approaches
• Engage with professionals who understand and recommend orthotic-friendly, supportive shoes to patients every day
• Gather feedback on Klouds designs and identify opportunities to better serve the podiatry community
• Stay ahead of the curve in design, innovation and what’s next for health-focused and orthotic-friendly footwear.

Your comfort is our priority, and events like APodA help us ensure we’re continually improving. Whether you're after orthotic-friendly sandals, supportive sneakers, wider fits or shoes for sensitive feet, our time at the conference reinforced our mission: to blend science, comfort and style into footwear that truly supports you.
