Wearing orthotic insoles is a good idea. Replacing them at the right time is even better. After all, they don’t last forever, even if they’re high-quality.
There are several warning signs to watch out for:
Visible wear
Cracks, warping, crushed or peeling material… If your insoles have lost their original shape, it’s time to replace them.
Changes in Your Feet
Weight gain or loss, pregnancy, aging… Our feet change, and your insoles need to adapt to these changes. A podiatric assessment may be helpful.
Persistent pain
If you're experiencing pain again (in your feet, ankles, knees, or back), your insoles may no longer be doing their job.
Change in business activities
A shift to a more active lifestyle or a new sport or job may also require adjusting your insoles.
On average, a pair worn daily lasts about a year.
Intensive athletes, on the other hand, often replace theirs every 6 months.
The right reflex
Check in regularly with your pharmacist, who can provide you with a free foot assessment. They can offer guidance on how to maintain comfort and good posture.
