Each pair of VKs is adapted to athlete's sport, gender and weight to ensure unparalleled stability, comfort and a perfect fit for improved athletic performance. Independent testing shows that athletes wearing VKs see on average 1.6" higher vertical jumps, 0.12 seconds faster 40 yard tap times, and a 9.3% increase in overall explosiveness. Designed for all shoes without studs, Gold VKs also help athletes protect themselves from common foot and lower leg injuries and recover faster. Studies show that athletes who wear VKs experience 41% fewer foot and toe injuries and 22% fewer lower leg injuries. Studies also show that wearing VKs reduces and helps the risk of ACL injury, MCL injury, meniscus tears, bursitis, tendonitis, osteoarthritis, shin splints, stress fractures, front tibial tendinitis, turf toes and plantar fasciitis. If you order Nike or Way of Calf, order 1/2 size smaller.

How are VKTRY Insoles customized for each athlete?** A: VKTRY Insoles are designed to be highly personalized based on age, body weight, and sport. Gold VKs come in 5 levels of flexibility because a bigger athlete needs more spring action than a smaller athlete **Q: 2. Do I need to remove the insoles that came with my shoes?** A: Yes, to have the space needed for the VKs and your feet to fit comfortably inside your shoes, we recommend you remove the factory insoles from the shoes. **Q: 3. Is there a break-in period to adjust to the insoles?** A: Yes, 3 - 5 light 30-minute training sessions on or off the court are recommended until there's no discomfort and you get used to the insoles. See our insert in the box for full break-in instructions **Q: 4. If I am on the border of a weight level, should I go up or down?** A: We usually recommend going down. Weight level is a big factor in determining baseplate flexibility. While a higher Pro Level may provide more spring, it’s important that you are able to comfortably flex your feet for the insoles to be effective. **Q: 5. I have plantar fasciitis - are these insoles a good choice?** A: These insoles designed with structured arch support, a stable heel cradle, and shock-absorbing cushioning to help redistribute pressure and soften impact on hard surfaces. Plantar fasciitis is often linked to repetitive strain on hard surface impact. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vktry insoles *by N***A on 10 March 2024* As an athlete this is the best investment I've made.

If you’re an athlete who wants to perform better and take it to the next level i 100% recommend these insoles. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seem to do as described *by K***R on 16 October 2023* Bought for golf, only used a few times, not really noticed any gains in distance but definitely felt not as tired and feet not so sore after use ### ⭐⭐ Underwhelming given the price point *by M***. on 23 October 2025* Lots is written about this product but some aspects are over egged to make it sound better. For the price you expect it to be all singing and dancing. The fit is all for you to decide what is right and cut it in shape for your own comfort but you would lose any guarantee and not really value for the money if you are having to do the work. For the price you want a ready made effective product. The material is good and solid and you can see it is durable but the comfort isn't there as it is quite hard on the feet ## Frequently Bought Together - VKTRY Gold Carbon Fiber Performance Insoles –Customized Inserts, Non-Cleated Shoes–Basketball, Volleyball, Racquet Sports, Running & More–Run Faster, Jump Higher, Recover Quicker, Protect from Injury - VKTRY VK Boost – Pair of Adjustable Performance Insole Accessories for Improved Energy Return, Improved Athletic Efficiency and Ankle Support and Stability – Booster Strap Insoles, Large - VKTRY Silver Performance Insoles–Carbon Fiber Shock Absorbing Inserts, Non-Cleated Shoes–Improve Explosiveness, Protect Against Injury, Optimize Energy Return --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/446111922-performance-insoles-gold-vks-carbon-fiber-shock-absorbing-sport-shoe](https://www.desertcart.us/products/446111922-performance-insoles-gold-vks-carbon-fiber-shock-absorbing-sport-shoe) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-09*
