Low-Friction, Abrasion-Resistant, Load-Distributing, Moisture-Wicking Overlayer Keeps Feet Cooler and Drier

ShockBlockers® Insole Inserts fabric surface solves this problem through its combination of low-friction, high-wicking, extremely durable textile.

Mike Dennis further explains: “The fabric is woven in such a way that it captures perspiration; the heat [both body heat and heat from the impact energy conversion process] and perspiration are wicked to the outer edges of the insole insert where they are released and dissipated through evaporation. An additional material in the fabric reduces friction between the foot and the insert, preventing blisters”.

Another common complaint about insole inserts is the tendency for the formation of painful “hot spots” on the bottom of the feet. What the brain records as a “hot spot” is actually a localized loss of capillary blood flow known as ischemia.

Most insole inserts are made from materials that are resilient (spring-like) in nature. It is this attribute that can cause the ischemic condition.

ShockBlockers® Insole Inserts feature a polymer that reads the temperature and pressure of the foot. The polymer reconfigures its molecular structure to mold to the foot, dramatically increasing the supported area.

Conclusion from Lab Test Report:

“The pressure map shows a visual representation of the pressure gradient on the foot during a single step. Red areas are the high pressure and blue areas are low.”  [High pressure on any area of the foot, whether standing, walking or running is a primary cause of foot injury.]

“On the ShockBlockers® VKP [ShockBlockers® WORK/SPORT Insole Inserts] pressure map there is a significant improvement…”*

“As an orthopedic surgeon, I have tried numerous insoles; from closed cell foam, to gels, to custom molded innersoles. I have never experienced the instant and lasting comfort from any other product that I get from ShockBlockers® [Insole Inserts].

“From the first step, I was aware of the difference. At the end of a long day on my feet, the comfort and shock absorbency persist. They fit easily into my shoes and, surprisingly, are even comfortable when worn without socks.

“They are so great I am going to replace the custom insoles in my ski boots with ShockBlockers® Insole Inserts.”
