- Ideal for Body Geometry Shoes: Maximize performance by using these insoles with Specialized Body Geometry shoes and optional varus wedges.
Understanding Arch Support and Body Geometry:
Unlike walking, cycling doesn’t fully utilize the foot’s arch. Without proper support, the foot can deform. Body Geometry footwear utilizes a combination of supportive soles and interchangeable insoles to provide crucial arch support, creating a stable platform for optimal power transfer. Green insoles provide the highest level of support.
Addressing Forefoot Discomfort:
Many cyclists experience discomfort and numbness in the forefoot due to pressure on the metatarsal bones. Body Geometry insoles incorporate a metatarsal button that prevents excessive compression, relieving pressure and improving circulation (keeping your toes warm in cold weather).
Determining Your Pronation:
The simple “wet test” helps determine your foot type: Wet your bare feet, stand on a piece of paper for 30 seconds, and trace the wet footprint. Compare your footprint to online diagrams to identify your pronation type (neutral, overpronation, supination) and select the appropriate insole arch support level. (Image examples would be beneficial here, ideally linked to a relevant resource on the Specialized website.)
