Insoles absorb the shock of impact by applying pressure to the appropriate areas of the feet.
Insoles are nowadays vital for both sports training and everyday life. Modern shoes are not always designed with the comfort and correct anatomical position in mind, and here insoles come to the rescue.

They give us pain relief from foot, ankle, and leg injuries. Insoles properly align our feet into a correct position when standing, walking, running, or playing, as they absorb foot pressure and aid us.
