The Role Of Custom Footbeds

By Eliza Mendoza


Custom Footbeds are pieces of clothing that are put on the upper part of the sole. This upper part is where the feet rest. The making of these dates back to history when early people placed pieces of rag on the soles. They did these to improve the comfort of the shoes. Modern man has replaced these rags with other smaller and smarter designs of cloths.

These in fits are developed domestically or commercially. The process that is done at home is quite simple. The initial step is where the fabric used to make the in fit is gathered. The material could be old or even new. In the case it is old, it is dusted and washed.

The shapes of the in fit are determined by the type of shoe wear to be fitted into. The shape is created by the specific individual. The shape is drawn by use of a pencil or marker. The outline is made clearly to avoid gross errors.

The cloth is cut by specialized machines. The cutting is done to certain specifications of length, width and thickness considering the human foot.The thickness determines the function meant to be served by the insole. Rigid activities may require thicker insoles as compared to easier activities such as walking.

Afterwards, the pieces of materials are then stacked together. The pile differs in height from one insole to another. The height is determined by the purpose intended by the insole. Insoles intended for rigid activities require a thicker sole. The thick sole will be achieved by stacking more material together.

The machines then knit through the edges of a pile to ensure that they are uniform all through. The insoles are then packaged and ready for the markets. The goods could be sold to the domestic and international markets. These insoles have particular functions to their bearers. Thick ones act as shock absorbers for the feet. They generally help to reduce injury to the foot sole especially in the heel areas.

They help to protect the sole from heat and cold. They act as insulators especially during the winter seasons. People who are travelling during hot days prefer to have shoes that have them . They help to aid in protecting the feet soles from blisters that come up with continuous walking.

Custom Footbeds are incorporated in most modern shoe wear. It is even more crucial for athletes such as runners and footballers. This is because they involve themselves in rigid exercises. Companies that have engaged in this trade have accumulated immense profits owing to the high demands. These companies most times are still the same ones that produce shoe wears. More manufacturers are making these commodities in the recent world.
