Soles / buying notes

Soles: before you order

Before choosing an insole, check the shoe and its existing footbed. A replacement has to fit the space available.

Find out whether the original footbed can be removed. Then distinguish a full-length insole from a heel insert or another format; they occupy different parts of the shoe.

Follow the manufacturer’s size range and trimming instructions. These notes help with product fit, not treatment. Persistent foot pain is a reason to seek appropriate professional advice.

Keep these details together

• Shoe space
• Full length or heel
• Trim instructions
