Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Pinnacle and Pinnacle Maxx?
The Pinnacle Maxx has a firmer, more controlling arch shell and an angled heel platform designed for maximum correction of severe over-pronation. The standard Pinnacle offers excellent support but is slightly more flexible and geared towards moderate over-pronation.

How do I choose the right size for orthotic insoles?
Select your corresponding shoe size (e.g., if you wear a Men's 10 shoe, order a Men's 10 insole). The insoles are designed to be trimmed along the provided lines if needed for a perfect fit in your specific shoe.

Are these too stiff for running or high-impact sports?
They can be excellent for running if you require maximum motion control. However, some runners prefer a slightly more flexible insole. If you are a neutral runner or underpronator, a less controlling model may be more appropriate.

Can I cut these to fit my shoes?
Yes, they come with trim lines. It's best to place them in your shoe first to see if trimming is needed, then carefully trim along the appropriate line using sharp scissors.

How long is the break-in period?
Due to their firm support, allow 1-2 weeks for full adaptation. Start by wearing them for short periods (1-2 hours) and gradually increase daily. Your legs and feet may feel tired as muscles work in new ways.

Will these help if I have high arches?
No. The Pinnacle Maxx is designed for over-pronation (flat feet/low arches). Individuals with high arches (underpronation/supination) typically need a different type of cushioning and support.
