Choosing Your Density (Important)
The Basic Orthotic comes in three firmness options. The right choice depends on comfort preference, body weight, and activity demands.
Soft Density
Maximum comfort and cushioning
Best for:
- People prioritising comfort
- Sensitive or easily irritated feet
- Lower body weight individuals
- Casual daily wear
- Those new to orthotics
👉 If you like a cushioned feel underfoot, start here.
Medium Density
Balanced support and comfort
Best for:
- Most everyday users
- Moderate activity levels
- People wanting both support and comfort
- General walking and work use
👉 This is the most common starting point for many people.
Firm Density
Maximum control and stability
Best for:
- Higher body weight
- Higher activity or sport
- People who “flatten” insoles quickly
- Those needing stronger foot control
- Work boots or high-load environments
👉 Choose firm if you tend to wear through softer insoles quickly.
