Why You Need Sidas 3Feet Insoles in Your Ski Boots

Ski boots all come with an insole, so why would you need to add an aftermarket alternative like a Sidas 3Feet insole? The simple answer is comfort, fit, and performance. The insole (otherwise known as the footbed) that comes with your ski boots is intended to provide a reasonable solution for everyone, which of course means they’re perfect for no one. On the other hand, a Sidas custom fit insole is made just for you and your feet, and you'll feel the difference they make immediately.

Feet are very complex structures. Each one has 28 bones, 16 joints, 107 ligaments, and 27 muscles – all moving in harmony to support your weight, keep you balanced, and help you to apply precise pressure to your skis. 

To complicate matter further there are three different foot types based on the shape of your arch – High, Medium, and Low (ie flat feet). 

Each foot type has different characteristics and therefore needs a differentlycontoured arch support to maximise your comfort, fit and skiing performance. That’s why there’s a range of Sidas 3Feet insoles for all foot types – and for all your favourite activities.

When we see you at Outside Sportswe’ll analyse your foot type, recommend a Sidas3Feet insole for the activity you're doing, and then customise it in our workshop to fit your feet and footwear perfectly. There are Sidas 3Feet insolesmade specifically forski boots, running shoes, hiking boots, and even your everyday work shoes. 

Seania who is one of the management team in at Outside Sports Queenstown is a dedicated Sidasinsole fan. Here’s what she has to say about them. 

“Having worked in retail for years, the product that’s made the biggest difference in my daily life is the Sidas footbed. I had no idea about arch support until I tried on my first pair of Sidas foot beds in my hiking boots. It gives me great support when I’mout hiking on uneven terrain, helps reduce fatigue, and keeps my posture in check. Since then, I’ve put a Sidas insole in almost everypair of my shoes.  I am also impressed by the personalized custom footbeds for my ski boots that have completely changed how my boots feel - more control, better comfort, and no pressure points, even after a full day on the mountain. 

Sidas really is a game changer for me whether it's work or outdoor adventures.

My feet have never been happier. ☺
