Currex HikePro Low Profile Dynamic Insoles

The Currex HikePro Low Profile Dynamic Insoles are designed to protect both your feet and your footwear while hiking. These insoles are perfect for people with flat feet or low arches but we also offer them in Medium Profile and High Profile variants if they are better suited to your needs.

What Are Currex HikePro Insoles?

The Currex HikePro is Currex's hiking specific insole. In hiking boots or shoes Currex wicking triple layer insoles will keep your feet dry, while the stiff foundation will stop your feet from slipping, to minimise the risk of blisters or sores. At the same time the insole protects your footwear against hours of friction from your feet during walking and hiking.

How Thick Are the HikePro Low Insoles?

It's crucial to know how flat or high your insoles are prior to purchasing, to help identify the support you need.

The precise measurements of the thickness of these insoles are as follows:

• Forefront Thickness: 4mm
• Heel Thickness: 6mm
• Arch Height (at highest point): 20mm

Are These Low Arch Insoles?

If you are flat footed or have low arches you have a high risk of foot injury due to impact. These insoles are the perfect way to prevent injury before it happens and they have been explicitly designed for low arches and flat feet. We also offer medium and high profile foot supports. If you are unsure about what kind of foot you have we recommend looking at our guides further down this page.

Are These Insoles Available for Different Kinds of Feet?

All Currex Insoles come in three varieties to give the best support to all kinds of feet:

• Low Profile Insoles for low arched feet – Low arched feet have a minimal arch or no visible arch at all. Low arches are ineffective shock absorbers and prone in injury.
• Medium Profile Insoles for medium arched feet – Medium arched feet have an arch stretching from hell to the ball of the foot. These feet are effective at reducing shock, but are still at risk of injury after excessive or intense physical injury.
• High Profile Insoles for high arched feet – High arched feet have a distinct arch stretching from heel to forefoot. These arches are often more rigid and less able to absorb shock, which can lead to injury.

Which Arch Do I Have?

If you don't know what sort of arch you have, an easy fitting guide is to attempt to place an index finger beneath the arch of your foot while standing upright:

• If there is room to spare you should use High Profile Insoles
• If the fit is snug you should use Medium Profile Insoles
• If the finger cannot fit you should use Low Profile Insoles

An alternate test to find out your foot type is to walk over brown or coloured paper with wet feet. the imprint left by your foot should depict your arch height, as shown in the diagram below:

What is DAT (Currex Dynamic Arch Technology)?

3D DAT (dynamic arch technology) is a dynamic bridge made from a nylon composite. To reduce the risk of overload, it supports the mid-section of your foot and minimises excessive movement.

Not only does this dynamic arch reduce the risk of overload, it stores energy and makes your stride more efficient. This makes the DAT ideal for people that are hiking or walking over long distances.
