Björn, how useful are insoles?

Basically, every shoe is equipped with an insole. But this standard insole is very thin and made of cheap foam. They do nothing good for the feet. High-quality insoles are very important and unfortunately still completely underestimated. Good insoles individualise the shoe and make it really my shoe.

Of course, the latest shoe models feel super comfortable thanks to a soft midsole or other technologies. However, these shoes are made for the masses and the exact fit is neglected. With an insole, the gap between the foot and the shoe is optimally closed and the pressure on the foot due to body weight and movement is better distributed.

Because every foot is different and needs an individual solution.

Liesa, how do insoles help me with discomfort? 

Did you know that insoles influence muscle activity? There are studies that show that insoles have a positive effect on the activation of the muscles and thus the Increased stability in the ankle joint will.^*1
It is important that they feel comfortable and are worn with pleasure, as this is the only way for the Positive mechanism of action in progress.

Unfortunately, we only start looking at our feet when they start to hurt or when we notice overuse problems in the knee, hip or ankle area and have lost the fun of moving.
This doesn't have to be the case, as there are also studies that show that insoles that increase comfort in the shoe contribute to Prevention of pain and overuse injuries contribute.^*2

So why not increase comfort and optimize movement directly with insoles?

Steven, orthopaedic insole or CURREX? 

We use the CURREX running laboratory, which is used by various orthopaedists, national soccer league teams and physiotherapists, to work on the further development of our insoles on a daily basis. 

Almost all of our customers rate our insoles as better or similar to expensive, custom-made orthopaedic insoleswhich can cost over €100. This is in line with scientific findings. ^*3;4
There are of course differences between custom-made and CURREX, but the classic mode of action, i.e. that the good old cork-leather insole straightens the foot and influences the alignment of the skeleton, is the same. not scientifically proven.^{*5; 6; 7; 8}
We are delighted with every customer who feels comfortable with a CURREX insole - and we see this in the customer reviews and messages we receive every day. That motivates us a lot!

Denise, which sole suits me best? 

Like a shoe, an insole should be adapted to personal needs.

When running, care should be taken to ensure that the soles are dynamic and flexible . In a road cycling shoe, on the other hand, I need 100% contact to ensure power transmission, because 100% contact means 100% power transmission.

Each insole comes in different sizes and in different profiles, i.e. determining your individual insole depends on various factors such as size, foot type, position of the legs.

To offer you the best advice online, we have designed our insole finder or you can simply use our chat. We are happy to help you!
