Best For Everyday Use
Protalus T-100 Landing Gear
The surface your body lands on. Thinner fit. Patented alignment in motion.
Your Feet Aren’t
The Problem.
What they’re landing on is.
The ground is flat. Your body isn’t built for that. The Landing Gear from Protalus is the missing surface — the one that turns every heel strike into comfort instead of compensation.

The ground went flat. Your body did not.
Your body was built for uneven terrain. Then the world went flat. Protalus is the landing surface that sidewalks, tile, and concrete never gave you.
Thousands of Years of Uneven Terrain
Varied. Uneven. The foot knew what to do.
200 Yearsof Flat Ground
Flat on the left. Flat on the right. Your heel has nothing to work with.
Landing Gear For a World That Went Flat
The patented surface that puts the missing angle back under your heel.
1 / 3
People ignored the ground. We didn’t.
Flat floors force your joints to absorb every step. Other insoles copy the shape of a foot at rest. Protalus patented the geometry of a foot in motion. A Landing Gear for your feet that affects your whole body.
PATENTED LANDING-GEAR GEOMETRY
We didn’t patent an insole.
We patented the
missing ground.
Most heel cups are symmetrical. Protalus’ patented design is deeper on the inside to align with the angled axis of your subtalar joint—the joint beneath your ankle that guides side-to-side foot movement.
That asymmetry is the invention. U.S. Patent 9,770,064

Where You Land Matters.
Every surface punishes differently. Protalus is landing gear engineered for them all.
Nurses & Healthcare Workers
12-hour shifts on hospital tile. The floor never changes. Your landing gear handles the biomechanics so you can focus on the patient.
Warehouse & Logistics Teams
10+ miles a day on concrete. One of the world’s largest warehouse operators deployed Protalus for hundreds of thousands of workers. Now it’s your landing gear too.
Retail & Restaurant Staff
Standing still is harder on your body than walking. Landing gear keeps the ankle loaded correctly even when stationary — reducing the venous pressure behind heavy, aching legs.
Construction & Trades
Safety boots protect your toes. They weren’t designed for 8 hours on concrete slab. Protalus landing gear fixes what the boot can’t — the geometry of your gait, every step.
Runners & Athletes
The same geometry that protects warehouse workers makes runners efficient. When your drive shaft is on axis, energy recycles instead of dissipating.
Active Adults 50+
Balance degradation is partly mechanical. Landing gear restores accurate proprioceptive feedback through the foot — improving balance on any surface, any terrain.
EVERY STEP, GUARANTEED
90 Days to Feel the Difference. Or Your Money Back.
Your Body Decides. Not a review. Put our patented Landing Gear under your Heel and instantly feel the difference in the very first step. If you are not 100% happy send them back free of charge with our 90 day guarantee.

Frequently Asked
The number tells you the length of the insole. The T-100 and M-100 are full-length landing gear that extends to the end of your foot. The T-75 and M-75 are ¾-length — they stop at the ball of the foot but deliver identical geometry.
Absolutely. Protalus insoles are designed to transfer shoe to shoe. Many customers keep one pair and swap it into whatever they’re wearing that day.
