I was recently offered an opportunity to review a pair of insoles from Sorbothane. Here’s my disclaimer: I received one pair of insoles for free to review plus two pairs of sole cushions for dress shoes. I’m under no obligation to publish my review, and the opinions that I share are based on my experience. O.K — so now for my review.

Sorbothane® is the ultimate material for creating components that absorb shock and isolate vibration. No other material can dissipate energy as effectively. Sorbothane® is scientifically proven to be the finest cushioning material available. In many applications Sorbothane® has absorbed up to 94.7% of the impact force.

Sorbothane’s manufacturing process results in low-cost tooling, short lead times and cost effective production. With 64,000 square feet of manufacturing Sorbothane can ensure rapid prototyping and timely production of low, medium or high volume needs. We combine over a century of tested experience in the design and manufacturing of components that protect the integrity and performance of your product. Engineers worldwide choose Sorbothane® for applications requiring shock absorption, vibration isolation and damping.

Sorbothane, Inc. will display standard and custom molded products for applications requiring shock absorption, vibration isolation and acoustic damping.

This new insole combines lightweight polyurethane foam that provides structural support, with Sorbothane® metatarsal and heel inlays for cushioning comfort and maximum foot-strike protection.

Sorbothane® is the only insole material that absorbs up to 94.7% of impact shock. And unlike standard insole materials, which can bottom out and lose effectiveness, Sorbothane® performs under any conditions. Durable and comfortable, Sorbothane® Kick-EEZ Ultra Sportsman insoles retain their orthotic benefits and shock absorbing properties month after month. Lightweight and antifungal, they also breathe, which makes for a much cooler insole.

Sorbothane® insoles have been highly recommended by doctors, sports medicine specialists and professional trainers for decades. Sorbothane® insoles have proven to be the best defense against foot pain, back pain and impact-related injuries such as Achilles tendonitis, runner’s knee and shin splints.

Sorbothane®…Shock and Vibration Solutions

Sorbothane, Inc. introduces a newly engineered line of performance Sorbothane® Ultra Work/Sport insoles that are ergonomically designed to provide more cushioned support and shock absorbing comfort. The new Work/Sport insoles feature expanded Sorbothane® inlays that absorb more shock and help relieve more pain in the feet, knees and lower back. These versatile, lightweight replacement insoles provide arch support, comfort and even more Sorbothane® shock protection.

Sorbothane® is the only insole material that absorbs up to 94.7% of impact shock. Unlike standard insole materials, which can bottom out and lose effectiveness, Sorbothane® never waivers under any conditions.

Sorbothane®…Shock and Vibration Solutions

Sorbothane®, a proprietary visco-elastic material, is custom molded and specified by engineers worldwide for its superior damping and isolation properties and scientifically proven to be the finest cushioning material available. In many applications and laboratory tests Sorbothane® has achieved shock absorption levels of up to 94.7%. Unprecedented absorption levels are possible because Sorbothane® maintains stability and damping over a broad temperature range, enabling it to isolate damaging vibrations and impact shock in varied conditions. Its near faultless memory ensures a return to original shape, even after repeated compressions, making Sorbothane® ideal for a variety of engineering design applications requiring shock absorption, vibration isolation and acoustical damping.

After a quarter of a century of proven performance Sorbothane, Inc. continues to be the ideal choice for a variety of engineering design applications requiring shock absorption and vibration isolation.

Sorbothane®…Shock and Vibration Solutions

The Kick-EEZ® Sorbothane® Red Line Recoil Pad is designed for all shooting applications. Available in four Grind-to-Fit models installation is easy.

Sorbothane®, a one-of-a-kind proprietary material, is specified by engineers worldwide for its shock reducing properties and scientifically proven to be the finest cushioning material available. In many applications Sorbothane® has achieved shock absorption levels of up to 94.7%. Kick-EEZ® Sorbothane® recoil pads reduce more recoil and do it better than any other pad. Less recoil reduces flinching, eases sore shoulders and cheeks. Unprecedented absorption levels are possible because Sorbothane® attenuates shock waves by dispersing energy outward from the impact source. Sorbothane’s delayed recovery properties minimize rebound kick and eliminate the rebound effect of the first shot, and therefore second shots are quicker and more accurate. Sorbothane® will not “bottom out” or “rebound” as do most common rubber materials on the market today. Sorbothane® provides effective performance in any and all weather conditions.
