| Why You Need to Wear Foot Insoles |
| |
The body needs sound support to maintain its weight and perform normal activities. If the support structure is weakened, the muscles must work harder to keep the feet, knees, hips and back in alignment.
Heel, arch, ball-of-foot, knee, leg and lower back pain can all result from improper arch support and misalignment of your heel and forefoot as you walk. But you can help relieve pain by wearing foot insoles.
- Relieve Back Pain with Foot Insoles: The body’s foundation starts with the feet, so minor changes in shoes – buying more therapeutic shoes, avoiding high heels, giving your feet support via foot insoles – can also help limit the strain feet place on the hips and back.
- Relieve Ball-of-Foot Pain with Foot Insoles: Wearing shoe insoles or foot insoles can help spread your weight more equally across the entire bottom of the foot. Shoes and insoles also provide stability to prevent the abnormal collapsing of the arch.
- Relieve Knee Pain with Foot Insoles: Chronic pain behind or around the kneecap is often diagnosed as chondromalacia, or “runner’s knee,” an abnormal softening of the cartilage that makes it difficult to move your knee. Wearing stable shoes with foot insoles that provide crucial arch support, especially during exercise or walking, can help relieve knee pain.
- Relieve Arch Pain with Foot Insoles: When the arch is fully collapsed or rolls inward, you have flat feet, meaning you’re missing crucial arch support. Wearing insoles or foot insoles that support the arch and stabilize the heel can help relieve pain and keep you moving in comfort.
- Relieve Leg Pain with Foot Insoles: Wearing insoles and other foot insoles can help reduce the stress placed on muscles and tendons on the front and sides of the legs, helping you avoid conditions like shin splints.

The following foot insoles are available on FootSmart.com and via our mail-order catalog.
- Custom Comfort Foot Insoles – These foot insoles are constructed from IsoFoam, a revolutionary cushioning material that conforms to the impression your feet make when you walk. This unique pressure responds to your every step, yet won't flatten out or change shape, even after hundreds of miles of wear.
- Flat Foot Insoles – With flat feet, the inside edge of the foot and the big toe stay slightly off the ground, making an ineffective push-off. So feet must roll inward (overpronate) to be entirely on the ground before becoming an effective lever to push. These foot insoles, developed by an orthopedic surgeon, compensate for the biomechanical problems associated with flat feet. Molded from polyurethane with a shock-absorbing Poron socklining, Flat Foot Insoles support the inside edge of the foot and big toe as if they were in contact with the ground throughout the stride. These foot insoles help feet stay in alignment, offering relief from ankle, knee, hip and back pain.
- Leather Wonder Walkers Foot Insoles – For years, the name Wonder Walkers has meant relief for feet, legs, back and joints. Now, these new Wonder Walkers foot insoles deliver the same all-day protection with the added comfort of a real leather sockliner. These foot insoles are constructed of Enduron, a technologically advanced urethane foam with over 1,000,000 micro cells of cushioning per square inch that each act like a tiny spring to protect your lower body. Also, the foot insoles actually breathe, so feet remain cool and dry. And these foot insoles won’t flatten out, bunch up or slip out of place.
FootSmart offers these foot insoles and many other orthotics, including shoe inserts, arch supports, knee braces and much more, to help keep you moving in comfort. Please start shopping today to find the right foot insoles to help ease your foot pain.
