About Scholl

Scholl was founded in 1906 by a Chicago shoemaker who qualified as a doctor to give his foot care products authority. Reckitt holds the brand outside North America, covering insoles, foot files and footwear. In North America the Dr. Scholl's name belongs to a different company, so the brand has two separate owners by territory.
