INSOLES

Over-pronating feet can potentially be stabilised and protected with the insoles below. If you decide to use insoles, please bear in mind that you might need neutral running shoes. Some people may need support shoes plus insoles, but for many people the combination of both could force the feet to roll outwards even more, resulting in discomfort and potential injury.
