Spenco Ironman Pwr-Gel Cushioning Insoles
Honed for sporting performance, the Spenco Ironman Pwr-Gel Cushioning Insoles utilise advanced insole technology to give the best care and impact reduction to your feet. At the same time, they work to improve your foot posture throughout your stride, minimising the risk of injury and perfecting your technique.
What Are the Features of These Insoles?
To offer you the best in support, relief and performance, the Spenco Ironman Pwr-Gel Cushioning Insoles contain the following:
- Pwr-Gel Base – offers excellent cushioning for the heel which does not diminish over time
- 360 Heel Cup – guarantees the whole heel receives cushioning and support upon impact, and protects the plantar fascia
- Pwr-Bridge – offers a series of support structures to properly align the heel and mid-foot, improving gait and posture for the whole foot
Who Can Benefit from Using These Insoles?
Prioritising sporting performance, these lightweight insoles are perfect for anyone looking to train or recover with painful heels or arches. They are also appropriate for anyone suffering from mild pronation or supination, as they help to maintain correct heel and ankle alignment during walking or running.
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.
