Orthopedic Health Expert & Advisor to BRANDONE

"In 20 years I'd never seen an insole built for an adult toe walker — everything was made for kids, or for people who land on their heel, which these patients don't. HighPads raise the floor so a tight Achilles can let the heel land, and cushion a heel that's been off-duty for years. The feedback I hear most: 'finally walking without my calves, shins and knees paying for it.'"

Running Shoe Comfort,
Now Inside Every Shoe.

$200 of running-shoe cushion - inside any pair you already own.

"My pharmacy insoles felt good for two weeks then went flat. These felt good day one and still feel exactly the same nine months in."

Drugstore insoles use EVA - the cheap foam that crushes flat for good once you've worn it in. HighPads use the same springy foam found in $200 running shoes. Crush it and it bounces right back. That's why it never goes flat.

Shaped Like Your Foot
Real Anatomic Arch - Not A Flat Foam Wedge.

"My back stopped hurting after a week. I didn't even know my back pain was foot pain."

Most insoles are flat foam slabs - same shape for every foot, no real arch support. HighPads were developed with experts to mirror the shape of your foot: tilted 15° (the angle your foot makes mid-step), a deep heel pocket, and three layers of foam. The arch holds. The heel locks. Your spine stacks naturally. Pain stops showing up where it shouldn't.

"I cycled through Dr. Scholl's every 3 months for years. Bought a pair of HighPads 14 months ago. Still feels like day one."

EVA is the cheap foam. Step on it enough and it crushes flat for good - it can't bounce back. Our PU foam is springy: crush it and it springs right back to full shape. That's why a car tire can roll over it and it pops back, while drugstore EVA stays flat. Same foam family as $200 running shoes. It doesn't quit. Independent tests show cheap EVA loses about half its cushion within months. In our lab, HighPads lost just 7% after a full year of simulated wear - about 3x longer-lasting than EVA.

Torture Tested. Still Bounces Back.

Run Over By A Car Tire. Bounces Back Every Time. Backed For Life.

"You can run them over with a car tire and they spring back. I watched the founder do it. Then I bought four pairs."

Most insole brands won't put their foam through this - it wouldn't survive. We hit ours with a hydraulic press, full body weight, step after step, even a car tire. Our PU foam came back to full shape every time. Crushed 100,000 times in the lab - that's like being stepped on every second for a full day straight - and it still springs back. That's why we can offer the only Lifetime Anti-Compression Warranty in the category.

Did you know?

The Foam In Drugstore Insoles Was Designed To Fail.

The spongy foam inside almost every drugstore insole has a name: EVA.

It was never built to last. EVA is the cheap kind of foam - step on it day after day and the tiny air pockets inside crush flat, and they never bounce back. The foam doesn't wear out. It collapses.

Then, in a blink…

The footwear industry built a multi-billion-dollar replacement business on the back of foam they knew would flatten.

Their motive? Cheap to mold. Light to ship. Replace every six months. Your foot pain became a recurring revenue line - and EVA stayed on the shelf.

Their Playbook From The 1900s Until
The Tables Turned In 2010 For Athletic Shoes -
And Today Inside Every Shoe:

Pre-1900s

Insoles were leather, cork and felt - handmade by cobblers. They lasted decades. Foot pain was a tradesman's problem, not a market.

1906

Dr. Scholl's launches. The first commercial foot-care empire - and the first business that profits from selling you the same foot fix every six months.

1950s

EVA foam is invented. Cheap to mold, light, easy to scale. The footwear industry rips out leather and cork. Insoles become disposable overnight.

1980s

Drugstore EVA insoles flood every shelf. $5 a pair. Flatten in weeks. The race-to-the-bottom on foam quality begins - and never stops.

2010s

Athletic brands quietly switch their high-end running shoes to high-density polyurethane and TPU foams - durable, springy, energy-returning. They keep them in their $200 sneakers. Drugstore insoles? Still EVA.

2026: HighPads

BRANDONE puts the same high-density polyurethane found in $200 running shoes into an orthopedic insole. Tested to 100,000 compression cycles. Backed by a Lifetime Anti-Compression Warranty. The replacement game ends here.

Lifetime Warranty:

Buy Once,

Most people replace their drugstore insoles every 3–6 months once the EVA flattens. That's two-to-four pairs a year. Year after year. For foam that was designed to fail.

HighPads is built once. Backed for life.

"I sweat a lot, walk 12 hours a day, and these insoles haven't moved a millimeter in 10 months. First insole I haven't had to replace. Already ordering my second pair as a backup - even though I probably won't need it."

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight Answers

Day one, yes. Three layers do the work - a soft mesh top, a springy foam core, and a firm base - so you feel the cushion the second you stand up. There's no break-in. The arch and posture benefits settle in over the first few wears as the foam warms up and molds to your foot. Most people say that by week three, they forget the insoles are even in.

Most insoles pick one job: pillow-soft with no support, or rock-firm with no comfort. HighPads stack three foam layers, like a mattress - the soft top absorbs the hit, the springy middle gives it back, and the firm base holds your arch in place. One insole, both jobs.

The foam. Cheap drugstore insoles use EVA - step on it enough and it crushes flat for good. HighPads use the same springy foam (high-density PU) found in $200 running shoes: crush it and it bounces right back, step after step. Independent testing shows cheap EVA loses about half its cushion within months. In our lab, HighPads lost just 7% after a full year of simulated wear - about 3x longer-lasting than EVA. That's why we can back them for life.

Yes - cold cycle, gentle wash, air dry. Don't tumble dry. The mesh top kills bacteria, so they stay fresh through hundreds of washes. Washing even brings back the grip on the sticky base if it ever fades. Water doesn't break the foam down.

CloudLift™ is our name for the three-layer build: an anti-bacterial mesh top, a high-density PU foam core, and a firm orthopedic base. The combination is the point. Most insoles are either pillow-soft with no support or a hard plastic shell with no comfort. CloudLift gives you both - cushion that never bottoms out and an arch that never goes soft.

Different shoes have different room inside. Pick by the shoe you'll wear them in most: Light (0.8") for dress shoes, loafers, and tight low-profile shoes. Medium (1.2") for everyday sneakers and casual shoes. Max (1.6") for boots, work boots, and roomy athletic shoes. As a bonus, that adds about 1.8" to 3.0" of natural height with shoes on. Wear all three types in a week? The All Cushion Levels bundle gives you a pair for every shoe and saves you $70.

Really. If your HighPads ever flatten - at any point, for any reason - we replace them free. No return shipping, just send a photo. We're the first insole brand to do this because we're the first to build foam that earns it. No expiry, no fine print, no "wear and tear" loophole.

No. The 3/4-length design stops at the ball of your foot, so there's zero pressure on your toes and your shoes fit exactly the same. The wide heel base sits flush in the back of the shoe. No sizing up, no cutting, no trimming.

End the replacement-insole game. The whole industry was built on foam designed to flatten so you buy again every few months. We'd rather build one insole that lasts for years and back it like furniture, not fast fashion. The lifetime warranty isn't a marketing line - it's the only honest position in this category.

What Customers Are Saying

✦ AI Reviews Summary Auto-Generated

Customers consistently praise the thickness, all-day comfort, and how the cushion actually holds up over months of daily use. The insoles drop into dress shoes, sneakers, and work boots without needing to size up, and the arch support gets repeat mentions from buyers dealing with plantar fasciitis and heel pain. Pain relief on hard floors and lasting durability are the most frequently mentioned benefits. Many customers reorder for additional pairs of shoes.

Absolutely worth it

Love wearing them when going out. Confidence boost without the weird walk you'd get with other insoles. Conzuri shoes are too obvious for me personally. I like wearing stuff that nobody can see.

Nice pain relief!!

They work and relieve my feet like nothing else i tried. Such a blessing 👍👍👍

Skip the drugstore ones, get these right away

On my feet all day. I'm 26 and work as a dental assistant, My feet and lower back were wrecked by the end of the day, and honestly I've always been a bit shorter than I'd like.
Standing next to taller colleagues and patients got in my head a little, especially when you're trying to look like you actually know what you're doing.
I'd tried a bunch of stuff before. Normal insoles from the pharmacy helped my feet somewhat but compressed in some weeks. been stuck in the rebuying cycle and it got to my wallet ngl

Kept seeing HighPads on Instagram and the reviews looked good. Without the 90 day guarantee i wouldnt have tried them most likely

They surprised me. Material feels soft and my feet dont feel sore anymore.. Really lucky i found these and can recommend them. skip the drugstore ones and get these

I honestly am a very tough customer

I honestly am a very tough customer, and I provide a lot of online reviews. I was very skeptical of this product. However, it was delivered quickly, and the product itself is amazing. Extremely comfortable and easy to get used to. I'm glad I purchased a variety pack to begin with.

Such a great product 👍👍👍

At first, I thought this was just another product claiming to do amazing things, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that the hype is real.. it's truly a game changer!

Got me more pairs for travelling right away 😁

Who's Behind HighPads

Built For The Adults Everyone Else Ignored.

Jonas, Dustin, and Alex are the three founders of BRANDONE - from Berlin.

One of us grew up on our toes and never grew out of it - and after years of braces that don't fit a grown adult's life and orthotics built for a heel that never lands, we stopped waiting for someone else to solve it and built our own.

HighPads 3.0 is the result of three product generations, real feedback from adult toe walkers, and work with experts - built around one idea we never let go of: raise the floor up to the heel, cushion it for a heel that's been off-duty for years, and let people bring it down at their own pace. No surgery. No brace. Just an insole that hides in the shoes you already own.
