Our unique Sole Hero™ Support Footbeds are Podiatrist designed and found in all our styles.

Depending on the style, they are either built-in or adjustable. This style features a built in Sole Hero™ Support Footbed designed with the aim to alleviate and prevent heel pain (including Plantar Fasciitis), arch pain, and forefoot pain through 2 key elements:

Align: The Footbed contours were designed with the aim to help facilitate better alignment and movement through the foot and leg by supporting the heel and arch.

Cushion: The Sole Hero™ Footbed is loaded with cushioning where it is needed. Our contoured layered system is designed to aid in shock absorption and enhance the feeling of softness under foot. To put it simply, our aim is for the shoe (including this footbed) to help take the stress of standing and walking on hard surfaces, and the wearer to feel their feet are walking on clouds.

This style features our unique FRANKIE4 Triple Layer Support & Cushion System. 

With body mechanics in mind, the 3 layers are strategically designed to bias support and cushioning where it is needed.

Our heel counters are made from a modern and forgiving thermoplastic, and are designed to be firm enough to assist in the role of holding the foot within the shoe, and forgiving enough to accommodate the heels needed motion while minimising friction and pressure on the skin.
