Helps Reduce Running Discomfort – Designed to support comfort for common running-related issues such as heel pain, forefoot pressure, shin splints, runner’s knee and Achilles tendon strain.
Blister Prevention Design – Soft cushioning helps minimise rubbing, friction and pressure points inside footwear, supporting better comfort during longer runs or extended daily wear.

Product Description
Responsive Cushioning, Reliable Shock Absorption and Long-Lasting Comfort for Active Feet
PORON® Vive Running Insoles are cushioned, cut-to-fit insoles designed to improve underfoot comfort during running, walking, gym training and daily wear. They combine a soft PORON® Vive cushioning top cover with a gel cell base to help absorb impact, redistribute pressure and support a smoother feel inside trainers, sports shoes and everyday footwear.
They are suitable for active users, people who spend long periods on their feet, and those who need additional cushioning for tired, sensitive or painful feet. For users with diabetes, neuropathy or reduced sensation, insole choice should be checked by a suitably qualified healthcare professional.
Key Selling Points
Impact cushioning for active feet
The soft PORON® Vive layer helps cushion repeated foot strike during running, walking and training. This can make hard or unforgiving footwear feel more comfortable during longer periods of use.
122 adaptive gel cells
The gel cell base reacts independently under load to help spread pressure across a wider contact area. This supports comfort beneath the heel, forefoot and ball of the foot.
Cut-to-fit convenience
Universal sizing allows the insoles to be trimmed to suit a wide range of trainers, walking shoes, work shoes and sports footwear. This helps users achieve a better fit without needing separate left and right size ranges.
What It Does and How It Works
These insoles are designed to add a cushioned, pressure-dispersing layer between the foot and the shoe. The PORON® Vive top cover provides soft, slow-recovery cushioning that helps cradle the plantar surface of the foot and reduce the feeling of hard ground contact.
Underneath, the gel cell base features 122 individual cells that compress and adapt as the foot loads during gait. This helps dampen vibration, reduce peak loading and create a gentle massaging or pumping effect beneath the foot during movement.
Common Problems It May Help With
Foot fatigue
Extra cushioning can help reduce tiredness caused by repeated impact, prolonged standing or long days in trainers and work shoes.
Heel and forefoot pressure
The gel and foam combination helps spread load through common pressure areas, including the heel, forefoot and ball of the foot.
Friction and hot spots
A softer in-shoe surface may help reduce rubbing and local irritation where footwear feels firm or unforgiving.
These insoles may be considered for general comfort needs linked to heel discomfort, plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgia, sesamoiditis, Morton’s neuralgia, neuropathy-related sensitivity, arthritic feet and tired feet. They are not a substitute for diagnosis or treatment from a healthcare professional.

FAQs
What are PORON® Vive Running Insoles used for?
They are used to add cushioning, shock absorption and pressure relief inside suitable footwear. They are particularly useful for running, walking, gym training, everyday wear and long periods of standing.
How do the gel cells work?
The base contains 122 individual gel cells that compress as the foot loads during walking or running. This helps spread pressure, dampen vibration and create a gentle massaging effect beneath the foot.
Can these insoles help with plantar fasciitis?
They may help improve comfort by cushioning the heel and reducing repeated impact through the foot. Plantar fasciitis can have several causes, so persistent heel pain should be assessed by a healthcare professional.
Are they suitable for diabetic feet?
They may be suitable for some people who need extra cushioning and pressure redistribution. Anyone with diabetes, neuropathy or reduced sensation should have footwear and insoles checked by a suitably qualified healthcare professional before use.
Can they be worn every day?
Yes, they can be worn daily in footwear with enough internal space. It is sensible to build up wear gradually and check that the insole is not causing tightness, rubbing or pressure marks.
Do they provide arch support?
These insoles are primarily designed for cushioning, shock absorption and pressure relief. Users who need firm arch control or biomechanical correction may require a structured orthotic insole instead.
Can they be trimmed to fit?
Yes, they are supplied as universal cut-to-fit insoles. Trim gradually using the sizing guide or the original shoe insole as a template, then check that the insole lies flat in the shoe.
What shoes can they be used in?
They can be used in trainers, walking shoes, gym shoes, sports shoes and everyday shoes with enough depth. They may not suit tight or shallow footwear where adding an insole reduces toe space or creates pressure.

PORON® Vive Running Insoles are cushioned, cut-to-fit insoles for running, walking, training and daily footwear comfort. A soft PORON® Vive top cover and 122-cell gel base help absorb shock, redistribute pressure and support comfort for tired, sensitive or active feet.
