Who Can Use the Strive Active Orthotic Insoles?
The Strive Comfort Orthotic Insoles have a unisex design that's available in sizes ranging from UK 3 to UK 12.5 as well as trim lines in case you need to cut it for the perfect fit. They're specially designed for those who enjoy high intensity sports with excellent shock absorption and contoured arch support.
What Are Orthotic Insoles?
Orthotic insoles are specially designed with built-in arch support and provide superior shock absorption. Besides relieving symptoms of foot pain, podiatrist-designed orthotic insoles help correct any balance issues and can also improve pains in the knee joints and lower back.
Why Should I Wear Orthotic Insoles?
Any recurring foot pain if left untreated can be immobilising over a long period of time. With regular use, orthotic insoles can help to restore your foot function back to normal in a holistic and non-intrusive way acting as a preventative method of combatting foot conditions such as Plantar fasciitis, arthritis and Achilles tendonitis.
How Comfortable Are These Orthotic Insoles?
All Strive products incorporate their podiatrist-designed Biomechanical Footbed Technology which conforms to the natural three-dimensional contours of your feet. The combination of high-quality material, contoured arch support, heel cushion and superb shock absorption means the only thing you need to focus on is your performance and not foot pain!
How Do the Active Orthotic Insoles Prevent Injury?
These active insoles have a high-quality polypropylene shell for enhanced foot stability so every step you take can be made with confidence. The shock absorbing top cover provides the correct support, cushioning and alignment to your feet to minimise injury and maintain your sporting edge.
How Do I Wear the Strive Orthotic Insoles?
You must remove the original insoles from your footwear before inserting the Strive orthotic insoles. Initially, the ergonomic design of these insoles may feel different as they mould to the natural contours of your feet.
We recommend wearing them for one hour on the first day, two hours on the second day and three hours on the third day for a smooth wearing in process.
Affordable Alternative to Custom-Made Orthotics
Customised orthotics can be extremely expensive and not always necessary for everyone with minor indications of foot discomfort. As these Strive orthotic insoles can be worn with your favourite sports shoes, they are a brilliant cost-effective option to prevent foot fatigue and other pains.
Can I Trim the Strive Active Orthotic Insoles?
If you find that your Strive insoles are just a tad too long, they can easily be cut to size using the trim lines for the perfect fit.
How Do I Clean the Strive Insoles?
- Wipe gently with a damp cloth and leave to dry fully out of direct sunlight
- DO NOT use any solvents
- Keep out of extreme temperatures
Materials
- Top Cover: Polyester

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.
