3 ARCH CONCEPT - BOOTDOC

LOW ARCH

The arch is incapable of cushioning, thus reducing the spring in the customer step or running motion. Displacement of the bones involved (e.g., buckling of the ankle bone, heel bone) can cause strain on tendons and ligaments. This leads to static imbalance and pain. The LOW Arch insole helps to prevent overpronation.

MID ARCH

The layout of the bones, tendons and ligaments reflects the theoretical norm. The pressure below the foot is distributed over the 3 main support points: heel (20 %), big toe base joint (17 %), small toe base joint (13 %). A MID Arch insole offers optimum pressure distribution for this type of foot, while stabilizing and cushioning.

HIGH ARCH

The long-arch is too high, thus reducing the contact surface. High medial and lateral arches are typically caused by shortening of the tendon structure or high muscle tension. These changes of the foot shape cause friction and pressure points when wearing shoes. A stressed tendon structure is often found throughout the body in this case. A HIGH Arch insole ensures comfortable, even pressure distribution for this foot type.
