Sizing Information for Podotech EVA Heel Lifts
Podotech Heel Lifts are available in three different thicknesses and three different sizes. To find out which size is right for you, please measure the width of an existing insole at the heel before consulting the sizing chart below:
Heel Lift Size | Dimensions (Length x Width) |
Small | 7.5 x 5.5cm |
Medium | 8.5 x 6cm |
Large | 9.5 x 6.8cm |
Thickness Information for EVA Heel Lifts
EVA heel lifts come in a range of thicknesses from 3mm to 12mm. This means the individual user can select the size that is best suited for their conditions and providing the optimum amount of support to deal with this.
How Do EVA Heel Lifts Work?
EVA Heel Lifts are sold in pairs and are shaped and manufactured so they fit perfectly against the back of the heel. They are designed to be placed underneath any shape or style insole to increase height at the heel.
This can be beneficial if you suffer with leg length discrepancy, if you heel strike, or if you have a condition that affects the natural pattern of your heel when walking or running.
Who Can Benefit from the EVA Heel Lifts?
They provide support and comfort for the heels and can ease the pain and discomfort caused through too much pressure on this area.
What Are the Benefits of EVA As a Material?
EVA is a material used regularly in insoles due to the supportive and lightweight nature of the material. EVA is soft and comfortable and it provides support and stability when used in insoles.
Excellent Leg Length Discrepancy Support
As with all heel lifts, they are ideal for those suffering from leg length discrepancy. By bolstering and elevating the height of one leg to match the position of the other, you are reducing the amount of overcompensation the longer leg has to do to accommodate.
Trim Down to Size for Unlimited Customisation
EVA can be cut down to size when applying without compromising the integrity and support of the lift. They are suited for modification, allowing the user to tailor the shape and position of their insole.

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.
