Who Can Benefit from Using These Insoles?
Prioritising comfort and support, these lightweight insoles are perfect for anyone looking to train or recover with painful heels or arches. As a lightweight and insole they are also ideal to wear with sandals.
Which Parts of the Foot Do These Insoles Support?
These insoles help to support the full length of your foot but pay particular attention to your heel. They support and cushion the area where the plantar fascia meets the heel to reduce strain along and around this bone. At the same time, pressure is taken off of the lateral and medial arches through the effective control of foot position and gait.
How Does Pwr-Gel Work?
Spenco's Pwr-Gel material has been specially formulated to maximise cushioning for its wearer. It has less than 11% compression set, meaning it springs back up even after extended wear to allow for exceptional impact resistance which stands the test of time. At the same time it is robust and durable, and able to withstand tear or degradation mile after mile.
How Does the 360 Heel Cup Work?
The 360 Heel Cup is designed to offer support to the whole heel and beyond. It offers protection to both the medial and lateral sides to keep the heel aligned and prevent any kind of eversion or inversion, as well as cushioning the beginning of the plantar fascia to prevent the development or exacerbation of plantar fasciitis.
How Does the Pwr-Bridge Work?
By making use of a series of support structures across the heel and mid-foot, Pwr-Bridge technology properly aligns the heel and stabilises the foot. This allows support to be carried along the foot and through the medial and lateral arch, using the biomechanical correction of foot posture, throughout the gait cycle.
What Is Flexalign Construction?
Flexalign is a material formulated by Spenco to prioritise lightweight density, cushioning and performance. Its durable body absorbs impact and cushions your heel, while also transforming that impact into energy to maximise your performance.
Which Sizes Are Available?
These insoles are available in two sizes:
| Insole | UK Shoe Size |
| Small | 4 – 9 |
| Large | 9 – 13 |
Can I Trim These Insoles?
To achieve the perfect size these insoles can be trimmed with normal scissors. We recommend always doing this carefully – you can always take more off but once trimmed the insoles will never get longer!
Which Activities Are These Insoles Appropriate For?
These insoles have been specifically developed for those training for the intensive Ironman triathlon, but are ideal for anyone undergoing repetitive impact. Since they are lightweight and comfortable, they are also ideal for general wear, and even appropriate to be worn in sandals.
