How To Measure Insoles

Shoes not only protect our feet, they also help us keep our legs and back healthy. However, if we wear shoes without proper support, it may cause heel soreness, backache and bruising. Obtaining insoles will be of great help in solving these problems. Now it is important that you know how to measure the insole.

 

The insole is made of

There are various materials that make up the insole, such as cowhide leather, foam or cotton pads, and silicone. On the other hand, the composition material of the insole can be changed as needed. Just like cowhide leather, it is strong enough to provide solid and strong support. When arched, the cotton pads may be too soft and may not be enough. It is still recommended that you see a doctor to ensure continued pain in your feet, especially if you still feel pain even when you buy and use insoles.

 

What is an insole? What is it for?

The insole is a strap inside the shoe; it is located at the bottom and is suitable for supporting the foot when wearing shoes. It also cushions, protects and comforts the feet. If the shoe does not provide sufficient support or does not fit the bow, ball or heel, the insole may be worn. In this case, the insole must be replaced with a new one.

Insoles for shoes can be purchased anywhere in any shoe store or department store. They usually have an affordable price.

 

2.Foot insoles

Sometimes, due to the increasing pressure on the heel of the shoe over a long period of time, it may cause foot sores on our feet, which will soften during overtime. Wearing high heels can cause foot pressure. Specially provided insoles for the soles of the feet, you can fix it on the bottom of the soles of feet to fully cushion it comfortably.

 

3. Measure your insole with

Elastic tape measure

 

Steps to easily measure insoles

Use a tape measure to slide it from the end of the boot into the tape measure until it reaches the “zero” tip of the tape measure. Use your fingers to ensure that the tape measure extends forward into the toe of the shoe until the tape measure reaches the edge that intersects the front edge.

 

You must secure the tape measure in place by placing the fingers of the other hand on the toes of the shoe. Now carefully place the tape measure from your toes to your heels on the level of the insole. Read the numbers on the heel corner of the shoe and continue to press the tape measure into the corner of the shoe. The number you read is the length of the insole and also the number when you know the length of the shoe.

 

To measure the width of the insole, hold the zero tip of the tape measure with one hand. If you are already holding it, be sure to hold it with the other hand at the six-inch mark. Press it outwards like a two-handed ring and slide it into the front of the shoe.

 

With your thumb and hands, place the tape measure tightly on the shoe and pull it evenly across most of the shoe. When holding the tape measure, pay attention to the dimensions of each edge. Once you get the size, immediately subtract the smaller number from the larger measurement to get the actual distance between them. In the end, the result is the width of the insole and the width of the shoe.

 

You have it. You already know how to measure insoles, so try it!
