Insoles are very important, you who love running have always ignored its role!

As the standard equipment of running shoes, the insole is neither plugged in like a charger of a digital product, nor will it be visible and touchable every day like a computer mouse, so it will basically be ignored by everyone.

 

But as a foot that accompanies you throughout your life, the importance of insoles is a real existence, and it greatly affects the feeling of your feet when you run. Most of the insoles we usually see are only suitable for walking but not for running.

There are two reasons: the first is that it does not fit the foot shape and only fits the size, and the second is that it does not match the shoe shape. If you wear an insole like this for running, it is very likely that the insole will squirm out of the shoe.

 

Features of running insoles:

1) The size is appropriate. Buy it back and modify it yourself, and the size needs to be modified to some extent, it can be considered that there is no specificity.

2) Fit the foot shape. There are different designs for different positions of the feet.

3) Good air permeability. Walking on the water is uncomfortable, let alone running.

4) There is a certain amount of friction. Avoid slipping your feet in your shoes to reduce the possibility of sports injuries.

5) There is a certain degree of cushioning. Although the insole is very thin, it can still play a certain role in cushioning, and it also improves the feeling of the foot. This is related to the density and thickness of the insole material.

 

How to choose running insoles?

Classification from the source of insoles:

1) Original insoles: The original insoles are not necessarily the best, but they must be the best fit for that pair of shoes, and you are the one who buys the shoes that likes the foot feel of that pair of shoes the most, so the original insoles are not yours. Two choices.

2) Running shoe insoles of other brands: As different manufacturers have different understandings on their running shoes, the manufacturing processes and materials are different.

3) Third-party general insoles: Many sports brands have independently designed running insoles, and their design capabilities should not be underestimated.
