Features & Benefits of the Talarmade Elevate Full Length Orthotics
The main advantage of the Talarmade Elevate Full Length Orthotics over other equivalent insoles and inserts is that they can be altered by a specialist to ensure that they offer the perfect support for your foot.
The Talarmade Elevate Full Length Orthotics offer the opportunity to control foot posture and also specifically modify the pressure distribution under the foot by means of anatomical contouring and supportive padding. It is designed to follow the anatomical features of the foot to aid stability and also act as a vehicle for the addition of forefoot and arch pads to be fixed to the top side of the orthotic to provide extra stability and strength to failing structures.
The postural control of the foot can be increased by selecting a heel elevator or medial post, either of which can be fixed to the underside of the Talarmade Elevate Full Length Orthotics. This allows a fully customisable orthotic prescription can be provided and an exceptional fit achieved.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Wearing-In Period is Required?
A wearing in period must be allowed for in order to give the patient time to get used to the orthotic, however, it is not unusual to notice an immediate beneficial effect.
How Long Will They Last?
This will vary between patients and depend on a number of factors such as patient weight and activity level. Around 6-8 months is the average product life if cared for properly.
Which Density Should be Used?
Firm=60 Shore A and should be used for higher control, heavier patients or high levels of impact
Medium=45 Shore A and should be used for medium levels of control, lower activity levels and shock absorption required.
Dual=Medium 45 Shore A for medium control with a 20 Shore A soft top cover for cushioning support.
Can Elevate be Used in Different Shoes?
Elevate has been designed to be used in a wide range of shoes, however in tighter fitting footwear it may be more appropriate to use the 3/4 length model to allow for more natural movement of the toes within the shoe and avoid skin pressure points.
Can Elevate be Cleaned?
They should be cleaned regularly in order to prolong the product life expectancy. We would recommend gently sponging them with warm, soapy water and drying with paper towel. Do not soak or dry artificially.

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.
