Best Insoles for Trainers

Tuesday, 17 July 2018

For most of us, there is no more comfortable pair of shoes in our closet than our trainers. Trainers are great for walking, running and all kinds of exercise, but are also unbeatable for providing comfort and support on your walks to just about anywhere. With that said, trainers aren't always perfect for our feet, and sometimes a little bit of customisation with an insole can go a long way for the support, cushioning and comfort your trainers can provide.

The Sidas 3Feet Activ Insoles are available for High Arches, Medium Arches or Low Arches, providing you with the exact level of arch support your feet require. Built specially for walking, running and hiking, these insoles focus on distributing weight across the wearer's foot, helping to reduce high-pressure zones in your trainers for consistent comfort.
