Which Conditions Are the SOLE Performance Thick Insoles Suitable For?

Recommended by podiatrists and accepted by the American Podiatric Medical Association, the SOLE Performance insoles have an orthopaedic design that can provide pain relief from various conditions such as:

• Achilles tendonitis
• Ankle pain
• Arch pain
• Arthritis
• Fallen arches
• Heel pain
• Metatarsal (ball of foot) pain
• Over-pronation
• Plantar fasciitis
• Knee pain
• Shin splints

What Are Orthotic Insoles?

Orthotic insoles are specially designed with built-in arch support and provide superior shock absorption. Besides relieving symptoms of foot pain, podiatrist-designed orthotic insoles help correct any balance issues and can also improve pains in the knee joints and lower back.

Why Should I Wear Orthotic Insoles?

If you suffer form recurring foot pain and leave them untreated, they can be immobilising over a long period of time. With regular use, orthotic insoles can help to restore your foot function back to normal in a holistic and non-intrusive way acting as a preventative method of combatting foot conditions such as plantar fasciitis, arthritis and Achilles tendonitis.

How Do SOLE Footbed Insoles Help Provide Pain Relief?

SOLE Footbed insoles have been clinically proven to reduce plantar fascia strain by a third and prevent pronation. The signature shape also helps to improve posture, stability and athletic performance while reducing the risk of injury.

How Can the SOLE Performance Insoles Help with Alignment?

The mouldable orthopaedic shape of these sustainable insoles equalise pressure distribution and optimise the natural motion of both your feet and ankles to treat overpronation and supination to keep you in a neutral position. The metatarsal support pad relieves pain and pressure in the ball of the foot by lifting toe bones into natural alignment.

Heat and Wear Mouldable for a Customised Fit

To ensure you get the perfect fit and maximum benefits, every pair of SOLE custom footbeds have a mouldable orthopaedic base layer that can be heated in an oven before fitting them in your footwear. You can also mould them by removing the factory sock liners from your footwear and replacing them with your SOLE Footbed insoles that will adapt to your unique contours after a few days of regular use. 

1. Heat in the oven for 2 minutes at 90°C (200°F)
2. Place the insoles in your shoes
3. Step into your shoes and the insoles should mould to your feet

Sustainable Insoles Made with 20% Industrial Scrap EVA and Recycled Cork

Not only are these SOLE Performance insoles designed to provide various health benefits, they are a sustainable choice that's kinder to the environment being made with 20% industrial scrap and natural recycled wine corks. They're also vegan and latex-free.

Affordable Alternative to Custom-Made Orthotics

Customised orthotics can be extremely expensive and not always necessary for everyone with minor indications of foot discomfort. As these SOLE insoles can be worn with most loose-fitting shoes, they are a brilliant cost-effective option to prevent foot fatigue and other pains.

Anti-Odour Technology For Odour Control

The recycled cork used in the SOLE Performance Insoles are moisture-wicking to prevent sweaty feet and they're made with Polygiene technology for active odour control.

Insoles That Go a Step Further By Helping a Charity

These performance insoles are designed in collaboration with mountaineer Ed Viesturs, and $1 from every pair purchased goes to Big City Mountaineers.
