Scholl Arch Support Shoes

Thanks to Scholl Malaysia, I was given the opportunity to review some of their products. The product I chose to review is their Men's Range with Arch Support comfort technology leather shoes. I chose it because I wear leather shoes to work almost everyday, which then I can compared it with my current leather shoes.


First of all, I found that the Scholl Arch Support is lighter than my current shoes. I've been wearing these shoes for about two weeks now, I like the soft footbed that cushion my feet, which my other shoes hard quite hard on my feet. My feet also will not slide in the shoes which made my feet tire easily due to the muscle strain  because of the need to hold the feet still on the shoes.

I felt that my body composure is better when I was wearing the Arch Support shoes, my back will not be as stress as when I was wearing the other shoes. Arch Support is design for optimum comfort for flat feet, weak or fallen longitudinal arches.

If you feel pain under or back of your heel or knee pain, you can op for Scholl's Bio Mechanics range consisting of slippers that provide the greatest comfort due to the Bio Mechanics foot bed. This foot bed is clinically designed to help realign the posture of the feet, thus relieving the wearers of some of the most common foot problems. Women will be enticed with the various floral inspired designs in the attractive colours of gold, silver and pewter, whereas the men will be donned in rugged slipper designs in down-to-earth colours of brown and black.


There are a lot more range from Scholl that is built with one or more of the eight comfort technologies Memory Cushion (adapts to the foot’s contours and springs back into shape for support at each wearing) ; Bioprint (conforms to the natural contours of the feet for arch and heel support) ; Gelactiv (its impact absorbing gel relieves fatigued legs) ; Arch Support (a soft foot bed provides comfort for flat feet or fallen arches) ; Sole Support (relieves pressure on the ball of the feet while exercising and toning toe muscles) ; Massage (massages the soles of our feet, relieves tension and improves blood circulation) ; Bio Mechanics (provides natural pain relief and realigns feet and body to reduce pronation) ; and Starlit (promotes better posture, improves blood circulation, exercises muscles and tones legs). The Scholl 2012 Autumn/Winter collections are as follows:

A Rude Awakening

It was around 12pm on a Saturday and I was half asleep and half awake. My company phone rang. I work in IT support so if my company phone rang then it means that some urgent IT issue that needed me to check. So of course I became fully awake and answered the call. I see the caller ID, the number is 03-78850692. Which is not the support number from my company. So, I half suspected that it is a wrong number call. Here's the conversation.


Woman Caller: May I speak to Ting Seok Ping?

Me: Sorry, you've got the wrong number. (I've received many wrong numbers call on this phone before so it's kind like a norm for me.)

Woman Caller: Are you sure it's the wrong number? May I know your name, sir?

Me: Why do I need to give you my name?

Woman Caller: I'm calling from Maharaj & Partners and you are using my customer's number. Of course I need to know your name. (What?!! Do I care if this is your customer's number?)

Me: This is my company's number.

Woman Caller: How long have you been using this number?

Me: I...(before I could answer she cut in)

Woman Caller: What's your phone number? Is it 012-xxxxxxx?

Me: (I need to recall the phone number because I don't remember. I've only been using this number not long ago. It was passed down from the my predecessor)

Woman Caller: It's okay. I'm not going to waste anymore time on this. (And she hung up.)


I was like WTF. Not even an apology? Who's the in the wrong? You called my number, I answered politely that it's a wrong number, there's no such person. Usually I'll get a "Oh, so sorry." and ended the call. This one, ask personal question and got rude when I don't tell her my name. Lastly, she said I was wasting her time? WTF?! Who is wasting who's time? You woke me up from my sweet slumber on a weekend just to be asked some stupid question rudely and I was wasting your fucking time? Now this is what I called "a rude awakening" literally.
