Protalus M100

I’ve been using protalus M100 for at least 6-7 years for work and casual shoes. I’m on my feet 7-8 hrs a day. They relieve my lower back pain to less than10% than If I’m without them. Could not get along without them.

Hey Gordon!

Yes, we just released two new models of insoles in the past 6 months and are planning on releasing 3 more, along with Cascade sandals again. We are selling the remaining stock of our Gen 1 insoles at great discount in order to provide them to customers who want them, and to make space. We don't plan on going anywhere! :)

Best Regards,
Nick

Hi Randy,

We appreciate you sharing this with us! We have found that when you have squeaky insoles, it is generally the interaction between the interior materials of some shoes and the insole that causes this sound when rubbing against each other. This can be remedied by using a bar of soap, wax, or stick deodorant to rub the underside and sides of the insole to help reduce friction. We are always working to solve this with every new generation of insoles we release but this has been extremely effective in the meantime.

We would love to hear how it works for you and let us know if you have any other questions.

Best Regards,
Drew

Newly tried

Just received a few days ago. So far better than expected. My PF has been less inflamed and the tenderness after wearing boots 12 + hours has been less as well
