True or False? At the end of a long day, it’s not just your feet that hurt; Ankles, shins, knees and hips…the older we get the further up the pain seems to go!

Mike Dennis explains: “When we run, walk or stand, we generate shock, which is mechanical energy. This shock can cause pain as well as stone bruises, shin splints and compression fractures. The goal of our ShockBlockers® Insole Inserts is to reduce the negative effect of this mechanical energy.

“The total energy generated can’t be reduced, but it can be converted into a form of energy that is more easily manipulated, in this case, into [minimal] heat. A unique molecule in the ShockBlockers® Insert polymer creates this conversion. The heat created is then captured by the proprietary fabric upper layer of the insole insert.”

This core layer outperforms vinyl sponge, neoprene sponge, sponge rubber, latex foams and “gel” type materials in side-by-side drop weight tests.

ShockBlockers® Insole Inserts obtained the best performance with the lowest positive rebounding (Max + G’s) of any of the inserts we tested against.

Conclusion from Lab Test Report:

“Force/Time comparisons show the overall force placed on the foot through a step. The green line is the total force, while the pink and red [lines] show the force on the rear and forefoot, respectively.[We are] mainly looking for a smooth green line that shows the pressure being transferred evenly and smoothly across the foot. Overall, the ShockBlocker VKP [ShockBlockers® WORK/SPORT Inserts] did the best”

There’s more than the core to ShockBlockers

Our testing methods

“I have bad knees from early parachuting experiences.  My left knee often begins to ache pretty badly when I have to do a lot of walking or standing on concrete.

After our flight at Oshkosh [Fly-In] we were walking the exhibits when the pain became almost intolerable. I stopped by your booth and Mike Dennis was kind enough to fit some ShockBlockers® Inserts for me.

Almost like magic, the pain eased and by the time I walked back to the Warbirds Aircraft area, about a mile, the pain was gone!”
