Feet aren’t a topic that is discussed enough (unless you have a fetish!), and it’s so important for our overall health. Obviously feet help get us places, but do we pay attention to the needs we should be providing ourselves when it comes to them? Do you remember those commercials for the Dr. Scholl’s Gel insoles? “Are you gellin’?” I’ll admit, I thought the commercial was silly, but insoles have been a part of our lives for a long time. Isn’t it time you get yourself Wiivv custom insoles? *This post is sponsored, but all opinions and research are 100% my own.
Many people believe that shoes provide all the support they need for their feet, and that’s entirely not true. Shoes can actually cause a lot of pressure and shock to your feet and joints. Wiivv’s custom insoles are designed to fit your exact foot. They provide enhanced comfort and support to your feet. First let’s talk about their user-friendly app.
1. Download the Wiivv app
Within the app, it will guide you on how to take photos of your feet. You’ll need a sheet of paper, your foot, and a camera! It’s incredibly easy and took me about 3-4 minutes to get it set up.
2. Mapping
Wiivv will then map your feet with over 200 points to create your custom inserts.
3. Ordering
You get to choose the style of insole you need! They have 3/4 length and full length. The 3/4 length is for more dressy and casual shoes while the full length is great for your athletic shoes. I bought a 3/4 length but I will absolutely be purchasing the full length for my running shoes!
There are a few designs you get to choose from when ordering, from the top layer to the bottom! I chose this adorable gnome and mushroom design and pink for the bottom!
4. Place Order!
That’s it! You place your order and wait for them to arrive to your doorstep! It’s incredibly simple, and I love that the app saves your profile so you don’t have to retake photos of your feet every time.
Nearly 80% of the population experiences foot pain. That’s because our feet were not designed to walk on concrete, but grass and dirt. Insoles provide you with the natural arch support your feet were designed to have. Wiivv custom insoles distribute pressure and loading across the entire foot, reduce ankle rotation and keep you aligned from the ground up.
Tissues in your heels are often very thin and if you subject the feet to shock and pressure especially when standing, walking or running, inflammation of the tissues will occur. Your feet may lose flexibility and you will experience pain.
However with custom insoles, you minimize pressure and shock on the feet. They offer quality cushioning for enhanced comfort and support.
My Custom Insoles
So I first tried my insoles around the house and immediately loved them! It felt a little weird to have full support on my feet, but it also felt fantastic. I decided to take them for a walk downtown which totaled around 2 miles and my feet felt amazing. I actually never realized how little support my flat provided me. Honestly that explains why my heels would hurt constantly.
I also really love the design of mine, but they had other options too! I think I will get the floral design for my running shoes!
Pricing
Okay, so I know you’re wondering how much they cost- and I don’t blame you. So off-the-shelf insoles can range from $10-$80. These are NOT tailored to your needs, and I believe will not provide the correct support you need.
Most custom insoles can easily range from $200-$800! That’s a real number- I looked it up! The 3/4 length insoles at Wiivv are $79 and the full length are only $100! They also have a 30 day risk free guarantee! If you don’t like them, you can just send them back! Did I mention free shipping because free shipping.
I never thought I would be gushing about an insole company, but I genuinely love these and I know they will help so many people who have continued feet pain and disorders they think they can never fix.
You can visit their site here and get your own pair of insoles risk-free! You can also just download the app which is what I used and it’s incredibly easy!
