I started training for my 3rd marathon in Aug 2017. I was in the best shape of my life: strong with only 18% body fat and was running faster than ever! I was determined to break 4 hours in this marathon. Then during a training run in early September, I hurt my foot somehow...

I had my doubts but they really work and work well. I had ball of foot pain on one foot after wearing worn out running shoes. I first tried new running shoes with better cushioning and got some improvement but not much.

35 years of motocross, rodeo, being an Ironworker, and coaching baseball has left me a little banged up... Last year in August I could barely walk... my knees hurt from the abuse and after 6 knee surgeries, I started compensating for the stiffness and that caused more back problems...

Running for over 30 years, injury-free from age 30 to 62(multiple marathons & trail endurance), I had four surgeries on the L ankle/foot, then four on the R knee due to a fall & non-healing patella fracture(total knee & hip replacements), between 2011 & 2018. From atrophied quads to hot spots on the soles of both feet, it's been a nightmare.

December 2018 a podiatrist friend suggested the Protalus inserts because Dr. Comfort & SuperFeet inserts were not helping with comfort or stability. WOW! What a significant difference ~ improvement ~ with Protalus; my Ortho surgeon & his prosthetist and my regular Podiatrist are impressed with the materials, the design & the comfort I report (less incidence of calluses or severity of painful hot spots).

Hey, the proof is in the product and I'll continue with Protalus because it does what is needed to help me walk, ride a bike, exercise and even sleep better every day.

I tried your Protalus T100 and my feet definitely feel better. I don't know what it is or what the difference between the others was, but the T100 works for me.
