If you’re looking for a lightweight shoe insert that provides comfort without crowding, our Full Sole Insert could be just what you need.

With so many shoe insoles on the market today, it can be hard to know the pros and cons of the different styles.

We’ve compiled a list of common questions about our full product that we think you’ll find helpful as you research your options.

If there’s a question you don’t see, please contact us.

Q: What is the Full Sole Insert?

A: It is a full-length, padded insert that provides an extra layer of cushion and shock absorption for any shoe. It’s made from the same high-quality material as our popular Adjust-A-Lift® Heel Lift and has a slim profile of foam rubber for shock absorption.  A genuine suede top adds durability. Unlike thick molded shoe inserts, it provides an even layer of light cushioning from front to back, so it won’t crowd your toes or heel.

Q: How Do I Know if I Need to Replace an Insole?

A: There are several reasons why adding new insoles to your shoes might be helpful:

• Visible wear and tear: Cracks, thinning, or holes in the insoles show they’re worn out.
• Loss of cushioning: If the insoles feel flat and no longer provide comfort or bounce, they are losing their cushioning properties.
• Foot pain or discomfort: Increased foot pain, discomfort, or fatigue after wearing your shoes could mean your insoles aren’t providing proper support.
• Odor: A persistent bad odor, even after cleaning, can indicate that the insoles need replacing.
• Decreased shoe fit: If your shoes don’t fit as comfortably as they used to, the insoles may have compressed over time.
• Increased wear on shoes: Uneven or excessive wear on your shoe soles can suggest that your insoles no longer support your feet properly.

Q: What’s the Difference Between the Heel Lift and the Full Sole Insert?

A: Our Adjust-A-Lift® Heel Lift and Full Sole Insert are constructed of the same materials, but they have a different design.

The heel lift is designed to sit beneath the heel only and elevate it. This elevation can relieve discomfort caused by a leg length discrepancy, plantar fasciitis, or Achilles tendinitis. The lift also has layers that can be peeled away to adjust its height. The heel lift also has the ability to change the height simply by peeling away the adhesive layers.

The full sole insert is designed to fit the entire length of the shoe, creating an even layer of support. However, it can also be used as a lift for those needing a slight elevation of 1/8” or less. It simply spreads the elevation out from heel to toe rather than lifting the heel only.

Q. What Makes the Full Sole Insert Different from Other Shoe Insoles?

A. Molded insoles, often marketed for athletic shoes, are designed to enhance arch support and shock absorption during physical activities like running or sports. They typically conform to the shape of your foot, offering targeted support for the arch.

Our Full Sole Lift, on the other hand, provides a uniform lift across the entire foot, distributing weight evenly rather than providing the high-impact shock absorption required for sports activities.

In short, Full Sole Lifts are better suited for daily wear, work shoes, or casual footwear where you need additional lift and cushioning, while molded athletic insoles are tailored for performance and impact reduction during physical activity.

Q. How Do I Find an Insert in My Size?

A. Unlike many other insoles, our inserts are available in six different sizes for both men and women, for the most customizable fit available. They are also designed to be easily trimmed for adjustment if needed.
