Sidas Max Protect Activ' Slim Insoles
Not only are the Sidas Max Protect Activ' Slim Insoles made to protect your feet and joints from the strain of high impact sports, they can also improve your physical performance by reducing fatigue and boosting forward propulsion. Their gel heels and shock absorbing PVC construction can help protect your body from impact shock, while their dynamic shapes and TPU shells provide stability and power to your stride.
What's Included In My Purchase?
What Makes These Insoles Ideal for High Intensity Sports?
High intensity sports like volleyball can be incredibly physically demanding, and you may have to jump, weave or turn at a moment's notice. To protect your body from the strain of such activities, the Sidas Max Protect Activ' Insoles utilise PodianeI+, a special PVC material which provides excellent shock absorption, and is able to reduce impact force on your body by up to 90%. At the same time, the dynamic shape of the insoles combined with their sturdy TPU shells and gel heels boost your forward propulsion to optimise your performance on the court, track or field.
How Do the Sidas Max Protect Insoles Prevent Injury?
The Sidas Max Protect Insoles have a specially designed TPU FLEX shell for outstanding foot stability, so you can move with vigour and confidence without having to worry about your feet slipping in your shoes. They can help prevent your chance of ankle twists or sprains as a result, and so protect your performance and wellbeing in the long-term.
What Sizes Are Available?
These insoles are available in six different sizes ranging from Extra Small to XX-Large, so most users should be able to find a suitable fit. Use the shoe size conversion table below to check which size will suit you best, then use the drop-down box at the top of the page to confirm your selection.

Improve Foot Stability and Control
The enhanced stability of these insoles will also hold your feet securely in your shoes, so you can have better control over your movements, even if you zig-zag or run in bursts. This can further enhance your performance by allowing you to reach your full potential of speed and dexterity.
How Comfortable Are the Sidas Max Protect Insoles?
The last thing you want to deal with when playing a high intensity sport is uncomfortable footwear. To keep your feet cool and comfortable, the insoles are perforated to enhance breathability and have padding on the heel and forefoot.
How Do I Fit the Sidas Max Protect Insoles?
To fit your insoles to your desired footwear, start by trimming them to the correct size for your shoes. You can then replace your existing insoles with the Max Protect Insoles, or you can place them underneath the ones in your shoes for additional support.
Can I Wash the Sidas Max Protect Insoles?
To keep your insoles clean, you can wash them with soap and a brush, then leave out or hang to air dry. Avoid using a radiator to dry them to prevent damage to the product.
Are These Insoles Suitable For Low Volume Shoes?
The Activ' Insoles cannot be worn with low profile shoes but are better for higher intensity sports
These insoles have a reduced mass compared to the standard Activ' Slim Insoles, so they can be fit comfortably into low volume shoes. However if you'd prefer insoles that are slightly too large for low volume shoes but also offer better protection, we recommend you opt for the standard version instead.

Our Guide to Finding the Perfect Size and Fit
Using Your Shoe Size
For most of our insoles, the easiest way to find the best size for you is to go off of your current shoe size. The majority of our insoles are available in a range of sizes and you can simply select the size that best fits your existing shoes.
Please be aware that, as with shoes, there can be slight variations in the size of insoles. For example a size 8 of one brand might not be exactly the same size and width as the size 8 of another. To help account for these discrepancies, a number of our insoles include dimensions to help you ensure you're getting the right size.
Measuring Your Current Insoles
While using your shoe size to find your best size is a good guide, it is not always foolproof. If you want to guarantee that your insole fit your shoes as closely as possible, we recommend measuring your existing insole and using this as a guide to your size.
To do this, please follow the steps outlined below:
- Remove the existing insole from the shoes you wish to use your new insoles with (please note that not all insoles are removable)
- Measure the insoles at their longest and widest points (see the below diagram for an idea of where this will be
- Match the measurements to the dimensions of the insoles listed, and choose the size that best fits your results
Where Can I Find the Dimensions?
The dimensions for insoles can be found on the "Product Details" tab (please see below) and are usually found in the sizing section of the listing, in a table. Please be aware that not all products currently have the dimensions listed.
The dimensions of insoles can usually be found on the "Product Details" tab
What If There Are No Dimensions Listed?
If you do not see the dimensions listed on the Product Details tab, please fill in the form below and we will work to get the relevant information as quickly as possible. We will email you once we have the information that you have requested.
Trimming Your Insoles to Fit
To get the ultimate level of fit from your insoles, you can trim them to make a small adjustment. To trim your insoles, simply follow the steps below:
- Remove your existing insoles from your shoes
- Line up your existing and new insoles at the heel
- Trace the outline of the insoles against the new pair at the toe end (see the image below for an example)
- Carefully cut along the traced line
- Your insoles should now fit your shoes better
Carefully trace the outline of your insole
Please note that not all insoles are suitable for trimming. Most insoles are unsuitable for return once they have been trimmed to fit; we recommend bearing this in mind prior to trimming.
