- Want to add a bit more support or cushion in your shoe for your next trail trip? Check out a new insole
Insoles, coupled with quality shoes and training, are a good way to add more comfort to your trail running experience.
If you are suffering from arch pain or issues in your legs or lower back, the cause may lie in your foot. Seek professional advice if it persists, but perhaps these insoles could be the solution.
Dr. Scholl’s plantar fasciitis pain relief
This insole is well cushioned along the whole foot to deal with the impact of running long distances. They come in one size, with lines for you to follow so you can cut them to fit your shoe. Many reviewers said that their heel and arch pain disappeared quickly after inserting these insoles. However, they are cushioned, rather than stiff or shaped, so may not be suitable if you are hoping to add support to your arch.
