Superfeet Green Vs Orange Insoles

Today we’re going to dive into Superfeet green vs orange insoles and what the differences are between the two.

You’ll also learn the type of feet that would match best with these.

If you didn’t know, Superfeet is one of the most popular orthotic brands you can find.

They have a variety of styles and fits that are all color coordinated.

And the green and orange are some of their more popular styles.

To learn which one is better for certain feet, we’re doing the Superfeet green vs orange comparison.

Below is a more detailed breakdown of the two orthotics.

The orange insert has more forefoot cushioning, a deeper heel cup, and a more aggressive arch than the green insert, which has a patented orthotic form with wide sides and a deep heel cup.

Both provide wide arches and narrow heels that effectively align the lower limb, which is advantageous for the knees, hips, and back.

A person with a higher arch and a narrower heel who desires better response from the ankle to the knee, hip, and back may benefit from the orange insert.

But to really know for sure which one is right for your feet, you’ll have to try them.

To do that, scroll down, and schedule an appointment.

Powerstep Inserts Versus Superfeet Inserts

Today we’re going to dive into PowerStep inserts versus Superfeet inserts.

Just like shoe companies, each insert company approaches how they do things a little bit differently.

Both PowerStep and Superfeet have been around for quite a while.

They are two of the bigger players in the market.

Between the two companies, there are quite a few different offerings with their inserts.

That allows them to cater to various types of feet and/or issues.

And in the video on this page, I break down the approach these two companies take with their inserts, and…

What makes them different.

Even though I’ve carried Superfeet for over 20 years, I wanted to bring PowerStep into the mix because they provide a good product.

And their inserts have been able to help quite a few people.
