Scientific evidence
Footgel Professional insoles are designed to provide cushioning and better distribute pressure for professionals who spend many hours standing or walking. Studies in workers show that using soft materials can reduce peak pressures and help reduce the pain and discomfort associated with long workdays.
Less pressure for people who work many hours standing
In a study aimed specifically at people who work standing for long periods, softer areas under the heel and forefoot reduced peak pressures. The preferred insole showed 22% less overall peak pressure than the least comfortable one.
