Insoles are made of

There are a variety of materials that composes an insole such as, cowhide leather, foam or cotton cushion, and silicone. On the other hand, the material that an insole is consists of may vary on the need. Just like the cowhide leather, its strength is good enough to provide a firm and sturdy support. In an arch, the cotton cushion may be too soft and probably won’t be sufficient instead.

What is an insole? What’s it for?

An insole is a strip inside of a shoe; it is at the bottom where it fits to add support to your feet when wearing a shoe. It also cushions, protects and comforts the foot. The insole can be worn out if the shoe doesn’t give enough support or either don’t fit with the shoe arch, balls or heel of the foot.  In this situation, the insoles must be replaced with new pairs.

Easy steps to measure your insole

With your tape measure, slide it into your shoe from the end of the shoe to the “zero” tip of the tape measure. Using your fingers make sure to forward the tape measure into the toe of your shoe until it reaches the edge that meets the forward edge.

You must hold the tape measure in place, through putting your fingers on your other hand to the toe of the shoe possibly. Now, carefully put the measuring tape on the level of the insole of the shoe, from the toe back to its heels. Read the number that’s in the corner of the shoe’s heels, keep pressing the tape measure into its corner. The number you read is the length of the insole, and it is also the numbers when you what to know the shoe length respectively.

For measuring the width of your insole, get the zero tip of your tape measure using your one hand. When you’re holding it already, make sure to hold it at a six-inch mark with the other hand. Press it outwards like a loop between your hands, and then glide the loop into the frontward of the shoe.

Using your thumbs hold the tape measure in both hands alongside the shoe, stretching it across the vast part of the shoe evenly. As you hold the tape measure, take note of the measurements of each edge. After getting the size, immediately subtract the smaller number from the larger number of the measurement for you to have its actual distance in between. Finally, the result is the width of your insole and also the width of your shoe.

There you have it. You already know how to measure insoles so give it a try!
