Superfeet Premium Insoles are arguably the finest over-the-counter footbeds available today. And they make an insole for every type of shoe in your closet – both for women and men. Feel the firmly supportive insole just once and your knees and back will demand them always. Rarely does Whole Earth sell Superfeet at 20% off their usual price. Check them out today!

Every type of Superfeet -from athletic shoes to high heels - is all on sale. Each model features Agion R top cover treatment to reduce bacteria and help prevent foot odor. Here’s the key to the color coded models you can find at Whole Earth now:

GREEN: Designed primarily for footwear with a removable insole, Superfeet GREEN provides maximum support and shock absorption. Ideal for feet with medium to high arches.

Recommended footwear: Running, walking, hiking, alpine and industrial footwear.

BLUE: Designed primarily for tighter fitting footwear, BLUE is Superfeet’s most versatile product. BLUE provides excellent biomechanical support for the widest variety of foot shapes. Ideal for feet with low to medium arches that cannot tolerate maximum support.

Recommended footwear: Cleated athletic footwear, running and hiking shoes, and all types of casual and dress shoes

ORANGE: Specifically designed to address the unique qualities of men’s feet and footwear. ORANGE is ideal for men who run, walk or stand for extended periods of time. Provides maximum support with a new forefoot shock pad for added comfort. Ideal for men’s feet with medium to high arches.

Recommended footwear: Industrial and athletic footwear with a removable insole and more volume.

BERRY: Specifically engineered to address the unique qualities of women’s feet and footwear, BERRY’s new enhanced features are designed to improve shoe fit, comfort and shock absorption for women who run, walk or stand for extended periods of time. BERRY now features a full-forefoot shock pad to provide extra comfort and shock absorption under the metatarsals and toes. Along with Superfeet’s intrinsic design that promotes ideal biomechanical alignment and function, this new closed-cell, contouring REBOUND foam provides an incredible fit and feel. Ideal for women’s feet with medium to high arches.

Recommended footwear: Industrial and athletic footwear with a removable insole and more volume.

BLACK: Designed for slim, tighter fitting footwear, Superfeet BLACK is intended for people with flat, extra sensitive feet that have difficulty wearing supportive orthotic devices. Ideal for feet with low arches, but fits all arch types.

Recommended footwear: Golf shoes and cleated athletic footwear, mountain biking shoes, and all types of casual and dress shoes

EASY FITS: Lightweight, durable ¾ design provides the same biomechanical support as the full-length insoles, but fits easily into tighter-fitting dress shoes. No trimming required.

Recommended Men’s footwear: Loafers, lace-ups and casuals shoes without removable insoles.

Recommended Women’s footwear: Flats and fashion heels 1” or lower.

WOMEN’S HIGH HEELS: Designed specifically for women’s feet and footwear, this unique design redistributes the body’s weight so it is no longer completely resting on the ball of the foot. Helps add stability by placing the full foot in contact with the bottom of the shoe. No trimming required.

Recommended footwear: Boots or fashion heels 1.5” or higher.

CUSTOM GREEN: Provides you with maximum shock absorption and a personalized fit for most athletic and industrial footwear with a removable insole. Ideal for running, hiking and walking.

Vibram FiveFingers

vibram

Five Key Reasons to Wear or Train in Vibram FiveFingers:

1. Improve balance and agility - when wearing Vibram FiveFingers, thousands of neurological receptors in the feet send valuable information to the brain, improving balance, agility, body mechanics, and posture.

2. Healthier feet - conventional shoes not only cast the foot, they often press the toes together and limit range of motion. FiveFingers gently spread the toes, enhance range of motion, and encourage your feet to move in a more natural way. The individual toe slots also deliver a more natural walking motion.

3. Stronger foot muscles - wearing FiveFingers will stimulate and strengthen muscles in the feet and lower legs, improving general foot health and reducing the risk of injury.

4. Reduced back pain - by removing the heel lift, FiveFingers enable a more natural hip and spine alignment, helping improve posture. These do though provide a soft, protective heel counter for cushioned support.

5. It just feels good - we always stress how important it is to listen to your body - most folks tell us wearing FiveFingers just feels good!

The Vibram rubber helps to protect your feet from scorching sand and sharp rocks and the razor-siped soles provide sure grip on wet, slippery decks.
Think of these shoes as ” A Vibram skin for your feet!”
