Soccer insoles for cleats, boots and turf shoes
A soccer match involves repeated running, accelerations, sprints and changes of direction. Springbak® Springsoles add a thin 3/32-inch 1,4-polybutadiene layer to soccer boots and turf shoes. The material is designed to compress under load and return toward its shape. Confirm that it lies flat and check fit, heel position, lockdown and lace tension in your own footwear.

What soccer demands of your feet
- Repeated high-speed running across 90 minutes
- Accelerations, checks and changes of direction
- Thin-soled boots designed for touch, not cushioning
- Firm ground, artificial turf and hard training pitches
Why Springsoles fit this sport
Repeat-sprint support
A resilient layer designed for repeated soccer movements. Repeat-sprint performance and fatigue over a match have not been directly measured.
Keeps your touch
As soccer boot insoles, the thin 3/32" layer is designed to minimize changes inside the boot. Confirm actual fit, lockdown, lace tension and feel in your own boots.
Turf relief
Springsoles can be used in firm-ground boots and as insoles for turf shoes. The resilient layer is designed to compress and return toward its shape; shin loading, pain, injury risk and impact reduction were not measured.
The technology, materials and four U.S. patents behind Springsoles are detailed on How it works.
On the record
What athletes and coaches say about Springsoles
Published endorsements from a Pro Football Hall of Fame cornerback, NFL and collegiate coaches, and the biomechanics researchers who tested the material. Individual results vary.
“I can run faster, jump higher, and have less fatigue. I would highly recommend Springbak® Springsoles to enhance athletic performance.”
Weber State force plate testing
What the force-plate study measured
Weber State force-plate testing found that more than twice the force was required to displace a person standing on Springsoles compared with standing without them. This was a standing resistance-to-displacement measurement. It did not directly measure soccer sprint speed, repeat-sprint performance, acceleration, cutting speed, change-of-direction speed, deceleration performance, kicking, ball touch, landing forces, fatigue, shin loading, injury prevention or energy returned to the player.
- Intended applications on the pitch: running, accelerations, cuts, changes of direction, defensive movements, firm-ground play and turf play — product uses, not results measured in the Weber State study.
- The resilient 1,4-polybutadiene layer is designed to compress under load and return toward its shape; energy return is the material's intended function, not a measured soccer result.
See the full breakdown on Proof & testing.
Force-Plate Stability Study
Weber State force-plate testing found that more than twice the force was required to displace a person standing on Springsoles compared with standing without them.
This was a standing resistance-to-displacement measurement. It did not directly measure sprint speed, acceleration, cutting speed, change-of-direction speed, landing forces, fatigue or soccer performance.
Running, accelerations, cuts and changes of direction are the intended product applications for soccer — not outcomes measured in the force-plate test.
Results are from the force-plate testing described in U.S. Patent No. 6,589,630 B1. Individual results vary.
Fitting them to your soccer footwear
- 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.
- 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.
- Also useful in turf shoes and trainers for double sessions.
FAQ
Soccer insoles — frequently asked questions
Do they fit low-profile soccer boots?
+
Compatibility varies by boot. 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. Confirm the Springsole lies completely flat. 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. Confirm actual fit, heel position, lockdown and lace tension in your own boot.
Are they good for turf?
+
Springsoles can be used in compatible turf shoes and firm-ground boots. Turf performance, fatigue, shin loading and impact reduction were not directly measured.
Do Springsoles fit tight, low-profile soccer boots?
+
It depends on the boot — snug speed boots leave less room, so compatibility varies. 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. Confirm the Springsole lies completely flat. 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. Confirm actual fit, heel position, lockdown and lace tension in your own boot.
Will they help on firm ground and artificial turf?
+
Springsoles can be used in compatible firm-ground boots and turf shoes. The resilient layer is designed to compress and return toward its shape; turf performance, fatigue, shin loading and impact reduction were not directly measured.
Are they allowed in match play?
+
Rules can vary by school, league, federation and competition. Springbak does not treat product design or past athlete use as governing-body approval. Check the current equipment rules for your league, school or federation, and ask the appropriate official if you are unsure.

Not just for competition
Balance and stability off the pitch
The same patented material shows up in stability testing, not just performance testing. On a force plate at Weber State University more than twice the force was required to displace a person standing on Springsoles compared with standing without them. If you or a parent are on your feet all day, read Springsoles for seniors: balance and stability all day on your feet. And if you play the fastest-growing court sport in the country, see pickleball insoles for court shoes and hard-court play.
Want the grounded-stance answers — how the force-plate result translates into balance, base of support and functional strength? Read the Springbak® balance and force-plate proof.
