Description
Footgel Tennis is a high-cushioning insole with a structure adapted to the lateral movements, braking and turns typical of this sport. Ideal for players who want to relieve pain in feet and joints and play more comfortably during matches.
The tennis insoles combine Tecnion® technical microfibre, high-density foam and Termocrep-Gel® 3R technology to absorb impact and reduce strain in feet, knees and lower back.
Benefits
- Pain relief and prevention: it reduces discomfort in feet, knees and lower back caused by impact and repeated support during play.
- Termocrep-Gel® 3R cushioning: it absorbs the impact of each step, stop and change of direction to protect feet and joints.
- Stability during lateral movements: it reinforces protection on the outer side of the foot and gives a firm base inside the shoe so you can move with more confidence in shifts and turns.
- Less strain during long matches: it distributes pressure more evenly to reduce built-up tiredness in feet and legs.
- Breathability and odour control: the Tecnion® technical microfibre helps keep the foot dry and controls moisture and bad odours inside the shoe.
- Class I medical device: made under European medical device regulations. It protects and looks after your feet.
- Hypoallergenic and antibacterial: it prevents the growth of bacteria to keep the inside of the footwear fresher and more hygienic.
- Long-lasting eucalyptus scent: the gel contains eucalyptus essence, which fights bad odours.

Scientific evidence
Footgel Tennis insoles are designed to absorb impact and distribute the pressure generated during serves, stops and changes of direction. Studies show that tennis concentrates high loads on the forefoot and that more cushioning in this area can significantly reduce pressure peaks.
High forefoot pressure during the serve
A study with 10 competitive tennis players found that the first serve generated 15.2% more mean pressure, 12.8% more peak pressure and 20.2% more maximum force on the lateral forefoot of the front foot than the second serve.

Less forefoot pressure with cushioning
In a study with 23 athletes, adding specific forefoot cushioning significantly reduced peak pressure compared with a control insole and was rated more comfortable.
