In 20 years I have gone from plantar fasciitis foot pain only when standing hours at a time to being forced to wear tennis shoes only and foot pain literally all day every day. Then my podiatrist found an extra bone in my ankles that were causing my tibial tendon damage. Surgery to remove the bone and repair to the tendon...almost a year and half  later I still had foot pain all day, every day. This severely affected my quality of life...

35 years of motocross, rodeo, being an Ironworker, and coaching baseball has  left me a little banged up... Last year in August I could barely walk... my knees hurt from the abuse and after 6 knee surgeries, I started compensating for the stiffness and that caused more back problems...

I love my Protalus inserts. Spent a month walking throughout Spain without any foot problems.

Thank you Protalus! After a military career, finding an insole (and I've tried literally at least a dozen)  that provides the right amount of support, stability, and comfort  was ---I had started to believe--like finding a polka-dotted unicorn on my front lawn.

I started training for my 3rd marathon in Aug 2017. I was in the best shape of my life: strong with only 18% body fat and was running faster than ever! I was determined to break 4 hours in this marathon. Then during a training run in early September, I hurt my foot somehow...

I've been a barber for 12 yrs and for the past 3 yrs I've been suffering from tendonitis in my ankle from long work hrs. After being sick and tired of the crippling pain I stumbled upon Protalus online.

Ordered a couple of pairs prior to a 2-week European vacation. I broke them in somewhat according to the instructions prior to leaving. Just returned from a fabulous adventure where...

I'm surprised how comfortable they actually made my Nike's feel  and I can feel that they are keeping my ankles from rolling in...

They made my favorite shoes comfortable, again!  I’ve been recently wearing the T-100 in my gym shoes for daily walks, and this past weekend I wore them in the same shoes while being on my feet for over 13 hours at a music festival and walking around Cincinnati.
