is the footbed rubber or cork?

It may look like cork but its known as a Microwobbleboard finish... very comfortable. Here is some info on it. FitFlop sandals were created in a collaboration between Bliss Spa founder and one-time personal trainer Marcia Kilgore, and biomechanists Dr David Cook and Darren James at London South Bank University (LSBU). FitFlop footwear features patent-pending muscle-loading Microwobbleboard technology and was independently tested at Salford University in Manchester by Dr Philip Graham Smith & Richard Jones to verify their pro-muscle activity prior to launch. Research is continuing with Salford University with a government-funded Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) with a full-time researcher, Carina Price. In a recent 20 person study (1) conducted by Salford University, results showed that the pressure-loading rate of a foot wearing a FitFlop sandal was reduced by an average of 25%, pressure in the toes was reduced by an average of 30%, and pressure in the heel was reduced by an average of 15% when compared to a foot in the control shoe. An average 8% increase in contact area between the foot and the shoe was found with FitFlop wearers, with the increase manifesting mainly under the arch area.
