Properties
- Premium soft foam foot orthosis made from high-quality EVA with pad
- With sport-specific guidance, support and cushioning zones arranged (vertically) adjacent to one another (no "sandwich" construction)
- Patented, three-dimensional, non-irritant connections between the material zones – PowerWave Technology
Material Zones
Cushioning zone (25° Shore A):
The soft cushioning zone reduces the pressure and load peaks in the forefoot and metatarsal areas – for the constantly recurrent load pattern of the landing, supporting and pushing off phases involved in walking and running, in order to protect the entire support and locomotor system.
Support zone (35° Shore A):
The support zone provides extensive absorption of the body weight in the metatarsal area and guides the movement on to the forefoot. The moderately rigid material prevents the foot sinking down too far, thus ensuring that valuable energy is not lost. The integral pad supports the natural transverse foot arches and counteracts the high level of pressure under the MTP-joints.
Guidance zone (45° Shore A):
The stable guidance zone offers the heel and the hindfoot a secure grip, thereby optimizing the natural orientation of the foot. The rigid material in the toe area provides a stable surface for accelerating, changing direction and stopping (design: play).
Available in the following designs
- TRIactive run – standard shoe shape and comfort shoe shape*
- TRIactive play – standard shoe shape only
- TRIactive walk – comfort shoe shape* only
- TRIactive golf – standard shoe shape only
* Comfort shoe shape has a wider forefoot area and flatter arch supports
Uses
- Suitable for running, indoor and ball sports, walking and hiking and when spending long periods standing
Durability
- fundamentally depends on the load
- We recommend that the functional properties should be checked after a maximum of 6 months
Cleaning instructions
- Wipe the surfaces using a mild cleanser and a sponge (except leather top covers)
- Not machine-washable
- Do not expose to direct heat (heater, direct sunlight)
Powerwave® technology
The functional zones in detail
Cushioning – the soft component
Sensitive areas of the feet are cushioned –to protect them
Support – the medium-firm component
The arch of the foot is supported and relieved –for an upright posture
Guidance – the firm component
The heel is guided as the movement starts –thus actively initiating your steps
An effect that makes a difference
The vertical configuration allows the material propertiesdescribed above to act on specific predefined areas.This enables the different functional zones to delivertheir biomechanical effect in precisely the right area.
An intelligent connection
The foot is highly functional. 28 bones and 33 joints worktogether to distribute weight in the best possible way – sothere is no room for annoying edges! The wave-shaped serrationsbetween the materials ensure that crossover pointsare edge-free – your foot doesn`t feel irritated!
