What our customers say
"I love these inserts. I have bad plantar fasciitis and I'm losing the arch in my right foot. Since adding these inserts in my shoes I have NO pain. I have tried a lot of different brands and none have worked this good, including specialty made inserts. Will purchase nothing else again."
Nina C.
"My podiatrist recommended these after I ruptured my plantar fascia several years ago. I have tried so many other brands and can instantly tell a great improvement in my feet, knees, hips, and back when I go back to the Protalus T-100. I will no longer play tennis, walk, or exercise without these in my shoes. I have now signed up for a subscription so I will no longer be without a pair of inserts."
Suzanne H.
"I have a dozen of these for all of my shoes. I'm on a 6-month subscription to replace 4 at a time. I have a pair from "Good Feet" and these exceed those high-dollar inserts. They are very comfortable as I'm in them for 12-16 hours a day. They are true to size and fit perfectly. They help with my plantar fasciitis. I could not last a few hours without them."
Wut T.
"I have VERY flat feet, past bouts of plantar fasciitis, as well as one ankle that's turned and not as mobile as the other. This has caused me for problems for 40+ years. Your insoles are the only ones that have given me consistent relief in my all day on my feet landscaping job... Thank you very much for helping me be as comfortable as possible at the end of my 10,000+ steps per day job."
Jeff R.
"I have high arches. As I have gotten older my feet get really sore more easily, especially the tendons across the top of my feet. I got these to try out at Brandon. There's no carts at Brandon so you have to walk. Walked 13,000 steps both days. Felt absolutely perfect, no discomfort."
Bill A.
"My shoe are never without my T-100 Elites. I have worn Protalus for several years due to a severe foot problem, plantar fasciitis. My foot problem completely, and I mean completely, disappeared soon after I began wearing these insoles. Thank you Protalus for creating this miracle insole."
Mary H.
"I've used Protalus for many years and my plantar fasciitis has not returned. Took about two weeks to go away when I first started wearing them. Great product."

World's deepest heel cup
Our deep-heel cup gives your feet extra cushioning and stability which reduces stress on your heel and attached tissue. The heel cup's curved shape also stabilizes and supports the arch of your foot returning it to it's natural position.
By returning your heel to its natural position, our insole takes pressure off the plantar fascia reducing soreness, promoting proper alignment, and treating the leading causes of plantar fasciitis.
Alignment & stability
Alignment starts at your heel and promotes proper adjustment throughout your knees, hips, and back. This allows for increased comfort while walking and has an overall positive impact on your body's wellness.
When the kinetic chain is aligned it distributes the pressure throughout your entire body, reducing stress and soreness on your plantar fascia.

FAQs
What type of shoes do Protalus insoles work in?
Protalus insoles work with a wide variety of footwear ranging from work boots to dress shoes. Our Insole Finder Tool can help you find which model is right for your shoes.
How long will my Protalus insoles last?
Although our insoles are made of the highest quality materials, over time, constant wear and heat will eventually compress them. Once compressed, you will no longer feel the original comfort or control in alignment. The Protalus ELITE line of insoles lasts up to 1 year. Other models should be replaced every 4-6 months. When performing higher impact activities, they may need to be replaced more frequently.
What are the health benefits of Protalus?
Protalus insoles improve comfort, performance, and mobility through alignment. Discomfort often occurs when structures of the body are subjected to forces they aren't designed to withstand. When your body is properly aligned, the force of each step is more evenly distributed throughout the kinetic chain, reducing pressure, inflammation, and strain on your body.

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.
Reduced Risk of Injury
The bones of the ankle and heel are most stable when they are positioned in alignment. If they shift away from a center alignment, they become less stable.
Imagine pressure being placed on those unstable structures over and over again while you walk, run, or work. That is where the injuries can take place.
Injuries can present as chronic pain in the foot, knees, hips, and back. They may also include acute injuries such as an ankle sprain.
Keeping your hindfoot in alignment allows not only your bones but also the surrounding muscles, tendons, and ligaments to properly handle the pressure placed on them from your feet through your back.
Better Balance
Your ankles and feet work together to manage how weight is distributed as you move
If your heels and ankles are not in their proper positions, they cannot properly distribute weight and this may lead to a less stable walking motion.
When your ankles and heels are out of alignment, your muscles, ligaments, and tendons often have to step in to ensure proper alignment and balance.
When these muscles become fatigued, they may not be able to handle the task properly and you become more likely to fall or become injured.
Increased Energy Efficiency
As you walk and move, your kinetic energy moves from your feet up through your body.
This energy can be seen when walking in sand. Sand kicks up behind you with each step. It is moved by the energy created when you move your foot.
Fatigued muscles don't pass as much of that energy onto the next structure. That is why walking in sand is tiring; energy is being lost and your muscles become fatigued.
An aligned kinetic chain allows the highest quantity of energy to be transferred up through your body, giving you more power and helping you feel less tired.
Better Pressure Distribution
The body is designed to distribute pressure so that your muscles can primarily be concerned with movement.
When the skeletal system becomes misaligned, especially at the joint between the heel and ankle, pressure is no longer distributed across the structures that are most able to deal with it.
Instead, other structures, such as the ligaments in the knees, hips, and ankles, must take on the job and that can lead them to become fatigued, sore, or injured.
Protalus insoles correct the misalignment so you can avoid fatique and injury.
