More than 500 million pairs of shoes use OthoLite insoles each year, so the chances are high that several of the shoes in your closet sport these insoles. Many shoe midsoles and insoles are made with EVA foam, a non-recyclable material. Created with non-renewable chemical compounds that don’t biodegrade, often called “forever chemicals,” EVA is not particularly environmentally friendly. What this does for you is that it helps position the heel to naturally absorb and soften the impact from the ground. As we have said, it has been around for just over two decades. Its prime advantages over ‘regular’ memory foam technology are in the management of moisture build up in the shoe.
