Performance Insoles - Gold VKs for Cleated Sports - Carbon Fiber Shock Absorbing Shoe Insoles - Football, Baseball/Softball, Lacrosse, Cycling, Rugby, and More, Weight 171-220 Lbs, US: Men

Game-changer for my NAIA college baseball son’s cleats — some added explosiveness and less fatigue I bought these VKTRY Gold carbon-fiber insoles specifically for my son Alex, who’s in his freshman NAIA college baseball season. He wears a US men’s 9–9.5 in his cleats (the exact size/weight variant for 171–220 lb athletes), and we chose the cleated-shoe version for baseball. At ~$149 they’re not cheap, but after two weeks of practices, games, and spring training, Alex says they’re worth every penny. What I love: • Instant energy return — The 100% aerospace-grade carbon fiber plate gives a noticeable “spring” on every push-off. Alex says his first step to the bag is quicker and his jumps when robbing hits feel more explosive. The SCSU study they reference (9.3% average explosiveness gain, 2% faster 10-yard sprints, +1.1″ vertical) lines up with what he’s feeling in timed drills. • Shock absorption in cleats — Baseball is all stop-and-go on hard dirt and grass. His feet and knees feel way less beat up after 3-hour practices. No more sore arches or that “flat” feeling you get from stock foam insoles. • Perfect custom fit — Slid right into his existing cleats (New Balance molded turf cleats worked fine). No trimming needed, stays put even during slides and cuts, and the top cover is breathable so his feet don’t overheat. • Stability & injury protection — He plays multiple positions and the extra lower-body alignment has him feeling more planted when fielding grounders or rounding bases. We haven’t had any tweak issues this season so far. Minor notes (real talk): It took about 3–4 practices for his feet to fully adapt — the plate is stiff at first compared to soft foam, but once broken in it feels natural. Also, these are sport-specific; don’t plan on swapping them into his sneakers for lifting or casual wear. Bottom line: If you have a serious high-school or college baseball player who lives in cleats, these are the real deal. Alex is faster off the line, more explosive at the plate, and recovering better between games. I’d buy them again in a heartbeat and I’ve already recommended them to two of his teammates. Highly recommend — especially the exact weight/size match we got.

I will start by saying I am in my thirties so recovery and how I feel during workouts is more important to me than the metrics, but WOW with these insoles I get both! This is my SECOND PAIR which I purchased for an additional training shoe. I have upped my activity level this year increasing my running mileage and HIIT workouts. I am convinced that these have helped me train more effectively leading to improved performance. How I feel wearing these: -springy, light on my feet, more power on rower, softer landings on jump squats/box jumps -no pain post workout, able to do consecutive days running at similar intensity The results (over the last few months since getting first pair): -shaved over 3min 30sec off 5k time within 5months -shaved 1sec off 500m row time -improved treadmill sprint intervals from 10mph to 10.7mph The fit: Hoka Bondi: insoles fit true to size (yellow option) Brooks Adrenaline: insoles fit true to size (yellow option) ON Cloud 5: insoles fit one size up i bought size 10 for size 9 shoe (black option)…these shoes fit me tightly but they are a slip on Try these, they will not disappoint and you will soon want them for every shoe you are active in. I can’t imagine working out without them.

Bought these for my 15 year old son. He wears size 13.5 nike cleats and the insoles fit perfectly. They are comfortable and way better than the cheap paper insoles that came in the shoes.

Bought theses for my son he plays tackle football , he said he can really feel the difference they fit well with them in he moves quicker and feels like he jumps a little higher . Overall it's been going great quality and durability so far no complaints only request to buy more they are pricey but if it helps athleticism then it's a win investment for my son's comfort .

Just breaking these in but I can already feel these are a game-changer, literally! The moment I started using them, I felt the difference-better support, increased stability, and better acceleration. Having high arches, my feet used to ache after long periods in my cleats, but these insoles have significantly reduced any discomfort or fatigue I would usually have after wearing them for a while. Thanks for the awesome product!
