Kick off your Sunday shoes, it’s time to get footloose… but loose shoes or those with poor support and cushioning might make many an athlete feel like sitting it out rather than getting loose and active. However, Footbalance, an innovator in custom footbed technology is introducing its Performance model footbed at this week’s Interbike show in Las Vegas.
The device offers a thin support with a minimalistic feel for activities where speed and performance are crucial. The footbed is an insert that is ideal for tight, low volume or performance footwear such as cycling shoes, racing flats, soccer cleats and running spikes. It is made of D-200 silver ion, high abrasion, moisture wicking and anti-microbial material that also offers 100 percent custom-molded arch support, heel cup and cushioning.
“Footbalance is excited to launch into the North American outdoor and bike industry at InterBike this September” says Footbalance North America’s President and Managing Director Matt Kaplan. “The Performance footbed offers ideal customized support for cyclists. We are very excited to show off this product in a market place that caters to high-performing, elite athletes.”
The Performance footbed can be rapidly molded in just about 10 minutes via the Footbalance Recommendation System (FRS) software, which provides an overview of user’s foot dynamics and stance. With this users might be able to put their best foot forward.
