even the best sneakers are a waste of money without good insoles
New ShoesOnce you get them, I guess the first thing you'll do is put on your new battle boots and try them out on the sports field.
But even if the shoes are from a big brand and you spent a lot of money on them, there might still be some slight discomfort, such as:
The soles aren't as soft as you imagined, and they might even chafe your feet;
When running at high speed or jumping, you might feel a slight tingling or pain in your feet;
The shoes might feel loose when worn, and the insoles might not provide good coverage;
The friction might be weak, and the breathability might not be very good...
At this point, besides the shoes themselves, I think you need to pay attention to the often overlooked insoles.
Why do I say this? Just look at the perks NBA stars give to their fans.
NBA stars often give small gifts to thank their fans when they leave the court, usually personal items like headbands or shoes. But when they give away shoes, they always do one small thing—They take out the insoles..
You might think that these big stars are stingy for not giving away the insoles even though they are giving away expensive shoes!
However, the truth is:The insoles of NBA stars are custom-made, achieving the ultimate in five aspects: anti-slip, shock absorption, support, breathability, and comfort.They are packed with high technology, and saying that a pair of insoles is more expensive than a pair of shoes is no joke, so of course, they can't easily give them away to fans!
While NBA stars have the means to customize their insoles, for us ordinary people, it's impossible to spend a fortune on insoles more expensive than shoes. So how do we choose the right insoles for us?
Next,I'll recommend a few high-cost-performance insoles from the aspects of shock absorption, elasticity, anti-slip, breathability, and comfort, for everyone to choose from according to their needs.
Running insoles:The insoles have an overall streamlined boat shape,with a thin forefoot and a thick heel,fitting snugly to the sole of the foot.They are suitable for running, basketball, tennis, and other intense sports.The surface of the insole is treated for breathability and anti-slip, providing good shock absorption and support while being resistant to deformation during vigorous activities.
Most notably, thisinsole has a size reference line on the back,so you can easily cut it to customize your own insoles according to your personal needs.
Silicone shock-absorbing jogging insoles:This is aninsole that focuses on elasticity and shock absorption,with a combination of silicone and small foam at the bottom, adding an extra layer of protection on top of the original shock absorption, greatly reducing the impact on the knees when the foot lands.The protective structure on both sides of the insole provides good support for the arch of the foot,and the fabric surface of the insolecombines wear resistance and breathability..
U-shaped anti-sprain insoles:Whether you land on your heel, the whole foot, or the forefoot, this U-shaped insole canhelp stabilize your heel,whilethe unique arch support helps distribute foot pressure and stabilize the ankle.It provides a comfortable experience during exercise and greatlyreduces the risk of spraining your foot while running..
Sports silicone thickened shock-absorbing insoles:The insoleshave a large anti-slip area on the forefoot, increasing the friction between the foot and the insole during exercise.The suction cup silicone design not only makes the insole more elastic but alsoreduces the impact on the knees caused by vibrations.The fiber-woven surface is breathable and sweat-absorbent,keeping your feet dry at all times,so you can enjoy running, playing basketball, badminton, and other intense sports.
