Springbak US Women's Size

US women's sizing — trim only if needed

Checking price…

Springbak® Springsoles are a thin 3/32-inch performance insole layer made from resilient 1,4-polybutadiene, a material designed to compress under load and return toward its shape. This listing is sized on the US women's scale (sizes 7/8, 9/10, 11/12) and fits women's court shoes, cleats, trainers and boots. Place it under a removable factory liner, or on top of a firmly bonded or stitched liner. Covered by four U.S. patents and made in the USA. In a Weber State University force-plate study, more than twice the force was required to displace a standing subject on Springsoles compared with standing without them.

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.

Sizing and fit questions

Which US women’s size should I order?
Order your normal US women’s shoe size. This listing covers US women’s 7/8, 9/10 and 11/12. If you fall between two ranges, take the larger one. Try it untrimmed first, then trim only the toe or forefoot in very small amounts if needed for a flat fit.
How do these compare to other sizing standards?
US women’s runs about 1.5 sizes above US men’s (US women’s 9 ≈ US men’s 7.5 ≈ EU 40 ≈ UK 6.5). All four listings are the exact same patented 3/32-inch Springbak® Springsole at the same price — only the size scale printed on the package changes. The current price is shown live from our store.
Will Springsoles fit court shoes, cleats, trainers and boots?
Yes. Try the Springsole without trimming first. If the factory liner is removable, remove it and place the Springsole underneath it. If the liner is lightly glued, gently pull to see whether it releases cleanly; if it does, place the Springsole underneath it. If the liner begins to tear, stretch, deform, or resist removal, stop and leave it in place. Put the Springsole on top instead. Never force out a firmly bonded or stitched liner. Try the Springsole without trimming first. Trim only if needed for a flat fit, starting at the toe/forefoot and removing a very small amount at a time. Do not trim the heel and do not unnecessarily narrow the sides. Recheck the fit after every small trim. At 3/32 of an inch, Springsoles fit court shoes, cleats, trainers and boots with minimal added thickness.
