Why are customized insoles better than average confection insoles?
The customized insole is made personally for you to provide the ideal support for your body. There are many confection insoles, which are designed using standard parameters. As such, the arch supports in these insoles are unlikely to be in the most ideal position for your body.
Your footprint – just like your fingerprint – is unique.
What are the customized insoles made of?
The Batz customized insole is a patent protected, proprietary insole made of a foam built up of closed cells: EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) foam material. The raw material of our insoles has a vibration damping feature. It is an environmentally friendly material and not harmful to health. It has excellent heat-insulating characteristics and protects your feet gains heat and cold. Resilient, highly impact resistant and keeps its form and supporting character through a long time. This material is highly durable, and it preserves its elasticity and form over a long period. The topcoat may be made of leather or cover with memory foam according to the individual choice. The cover is bonded with a solvent, water-based adhesive to the CNC milled EVA foam raw material.
How are the customized insoles made?
After the foot pressure measurement and the collection of your personal data, the picture of your foot pressure and other infromation are sent by internet connection to the Batz design centre. There, our experts design your insoles with the assistance of the EasyCad 3D software according to the anatomical characteristics of your feet. During the insoles design phase, a special algorithm, which was elaborated by the “Sapienza Universita Roma” University, supports our experts. This algorithm contains thousands of different feet pressure pictures, and based on the information, it offers automatic adjustments to achieve the most appropriate supports for your unique foot case. After the design phase is completed, a computer-controlled milling machine carves your customized insoles from the carefully choosen EVA foam (from different hardness and density). Then they are manually burnished to perfectly fit inside the shoes. At the end of the process, the chosen cover material is placed on the top of the insole to finish the product. All insoles are made totally individually.
How long do the customized insoles last?
The Batz customized insole’s material is extremely durable made with special EVA foam preserving its flexibility and original shape for several years. However, it is important to note that because of the systematic use of customized insoles, your feet’s anatomy might change, and it is therefore recommended to reorder and redesign a new insole based on new measurement every year.
How do I use the customized insoles?
In the first few days, use the insole for only 1-2 hours and then gradually increase the use to 2-4 hours/day. Progressively increase the duration of wearing the insoles until you get used to them. For those, who have had arch sinking and its associated unpleasant symptoms, wearing the insole might be especially uncomfortable in the first days or weeks. The duration of getting used to them may take longer for elderly people. During night time, it is recommended to take the insole out of the shoe to let it breathe.

What kind of shoes can I use them with?
Customized insoles can be placed in shoes that do not have built-in or glued longitudinal arch, or any other lifting surface. It is important to note that customized insoles, which provide perfect support, can be placed in shoes where there is enough free space inside the shoe. This is most likely achieved when we choose a pair of shoe with original removable insoles, which can be taken out and changed to the customized insoles.
Can I use one insole with several different shoes?
If the shoes are similar to each other in style, form and size, then yes, you can use the insoles in more different shoes. But, because of the from you cannot insert the insole that is made for a shoe with huge inner space (e.g. hiking boots) into a different styled (e.g. casual) shoe because its space won’t allow it. Also the insoles ordered for everyday use, can not be worn for any dynamic sport in a sport shoes.

After a year you need to take a new measurement, as by using customized insoles the foot pressure picture and so the status of the arches, and the balance may be changed, improved.

Is it possible to make customized insoles for diabetic people?
In case of diagnosed diabetes, customized insoles are only recommended after a thorough orthopaedic examination. Since there is no medical specialist in the stores, customized insoles cannot be designed for people with diabetes! High blood sugar can damage nerves, which may lead to numbness of the feet. If the patient cannot feel the pressure whilst wearing the insole, blisters, bruising and wounds may be caused which can lead to ulceration in long time. While ordering customized insoles, the customer is required to declare that he/she does not have diabetes or any other circulatory disorder caused by diabetes or ulcerative leg or foot.
