Insoles For Flats
It can be difficult to find insoles that fit well in lower volume shoes such as women's flats. Yet these shoes often provide a low amount of support and could benefit greatly from after-market insoles. Read below to find out more about insoles for flats.
Do flats provide enough arch support?
The factory insoles that come in many low-volume shoes provide little to no arch support. Many of them are cemented in and entirely flat and hard, making them difficult to wear for long periods of time. Even shoes in children's sizes can be guilty of this, which is why we also make kid's insoles.


How can you make flats more supportive?
If the person wearing the flat shoes has a low arch, flat feet, or if they wear flats on a daily basis for long periods of time, arch support inserts can help prevent arch collapse.
For Flats We Recommend:
The T-Series offers a moderate degree of cushion and arch support along with a thin profile. It is ideal for daily wear in low to regular volume shoes such as flats, narrow athletic trainers, and oxfords. The T-Series incorporates Protalus's patented alignment technology to provide the structure and comfort you need.

Designed for casual or slip-on shoes with a removable insole.

Designed for casual or slip-on shoes with a non-removable insole.

Can you put insoles in flats?
Many insert brands have a cushion that is too high to be worn with flats. They push the heel up too high and can cause the heel to slip out of the shoe while walking. The Protalus T-Series is a thinner insole collection that still provides arch support and is specifically made for low to regular volume shoes.

Are insoles for flats cushioned?
Because most flats have little to no cushion, they can be painful to wear for a full day. Adding insoles to flats will not only help with arch support and ankle alignment but add comfort as well since most insoles are cushioned. On the other side of the spectrum, high heels can cause pain as well. For that issue, Protalus has created the H-75 model.

Can insoles prevent odor in flats?
Odor in shoes is caused by the build up of bacteria and sweat. Many people choose to wear flat shoes without socks, which can exacerbate the problem. While some insoles have antimicrobial surfaces or even odor fighting agents, wearing your shoes without socks will create the perfect environment for bacteria to grow and the odor will follow.

Patented Technology Makes It Possible
The difference lies in our patented TRI-Planar technology. Other insole companies place a stump under the arch and call it support. Our insoles focus on the cause of the problem rather than the symptoms, designed to help your body maintain a neutral ankle joint position, while still allowing full ranges of healthy movement. Proper joint alignment improves movement efficiency, reduces fatigue, and prevents injury to help you do what you love.
