7 Reasons South Africans Are Testing R349 Insoles Before Buying New Shoes
Most foot pain regret starts with a R2,000 pair of shoes that never fixed the real problem. Here's the cheaper fix people are trying first.
★★★★★ 4.9 from verified reviews
If your feet ache by 3pm, your heels throb when you get out of bed, or your legs feel heavy after a long shift, you've probably thought about buying new shoes.
Before you do, read this. Most people don't need new shoes. They need better support inside the shoes they already own.
1Your shoes probably aren't the problem
Most shoes come with a flat, thin foam insert that flattens out within weeks. That's what your foot is actually standing on all day. Swap the shoe and you often get the same thin insert again.
2Your arch finally gets held up
ActiveFlex has a contoured midfoot cradle that supports your arch and spreads your weight away from the pressure points that cause heel and arch pain. Less strain on your feet means less fatigue up your legs.
3A heel cup that takes the hit for you
Tiles, concrete, warehouse floors. Every step sends a jolt up through your heel. The deep, dense heel cup absorbs that shock so you finish the day with energy left over.

4Fits the shoes you already own. Takes 60 seconds.
No fitting, no appointment, no new shoes. Trainers, work boots, school shoes, formal shoes. Here's how:
Remove the old insert
Pull out the flat foam insert that came with your shoe. Keep it, you will use it as a guide.
Match and trace
Lay the old insert on top of ActiveFlex, lining up the heels. Trace around the toe with a pen.
Trim to fit
Cut along your line with normal scissors. Trim a little at a time until it matches.
Slide in, heel first
Push the heel into the back of the shoe, then flatten the toe down. Lace up and walk.
One pair moves between shoes, which is why most people grab a pair for each.
5Cooler, fresher feet in the SA heat
Ventilation channels let air move under your foot, and the odour-resistant top layer stays fresh. No more sweaty, smelly shoes by lunchtime.
6Not just for work. Padel, gym and court too
Targeted massage nodes keep pressure moving while you're active. Our customers wear them on 12 hour shifts and on the court.
7It's the cheapest thing to test first
New shoes are a gamble. Custom orthotics cost a small fortune. ActiveFlex costs less than a tank of petrol, lasts 12+ months, and you get 30 days to decide.
