All four Springbak® Springsoles listings

One patented insole, four sizing standards. Every pair is 3/32 of an inch thin, made in the USA, protected by four U.S. patents, and turns the shoes you already own into performance footwear. Sizes below show live availability from our store.

Force-Plate Stability Study

In force-plate testing, subjects standing on Springbak® Springsoles showed more than twice the overall resistance to being pushed from their position.

In plain English: they were harder to move. They could hold their ground better against a sideways push—exactly the kind of stability athletes need when planting, cutting, jumping, landing, and absorbing contact.

Springbak® gives the foot a more stable, responsive platform to work from inside the shoe.

Results are from the force-plate testing described in U.S. Patent No. 6,589,630 B1. Individual results vary.

Why these are performance footwear, not cushioning

Springbak® Springsoles use a patented 1,4-polybutadiene layer that returns energy instead of absorbing it. The technology is covered by U.S. Patents 5,554,694, 5,695,850, 6,120,880 and 6,589,630 B1. Read the patents and lab evidence, the force-plate proof, or our business details.

    & stability study

    Evaluated with Dr. Michael Yessis, Dr. Robert Wiswell and Howard Gray, PhD — stability and functional strength, measured rather than claimed.
