What specialists & customers say:
Dr. Krause
Orthopedic Specialist (Munich, Germany)"stepz insoles can give strained heels noticeably more comfortable support — often after just a short break-in period."
Dr. Berger
Orthopedic Specialist (Kiel, Germany)"stepz insoles combine targeted pressure distribution with stable support for the heel and arch."
Jürgen H.
"I've been struggling with plantar fasciitis for years. stepz has truly changed everything. The arch support gives me exactly the stability I needed."
Customer since March 2026
Monika F.
"Since I started wearing stepz, I come home and don't think about my feet anymore. Wish I'd known about this sooner."
Customer since December 2025It's easy: just pick your usual US shoe size — the same one you buy shoes in. If you wear a men's 8 or women's 9, for example, choose M 8 / W 9.
Depending on the shoe, you wear either a men's 8 or a 9? Then just go with the larger size, M 9 / W 10. That way you're always on the safe side.
And if the insole is ever a bit too long for your shoe: no problem. On the underside you'll find marked trim lines for every size — so you can trim your stepz® to fit perfectly in seconds with ordinary scissors. The relief zones at the heel and arch stay fully intact.
Yes. stepz relieve exactly the three zones where foot pain develops: heel, arch and ball of the foot.
Our customers wear stepz for things like:
- Plantar fasciitis & heel spurs
- Ball-of-foot & forefoot pain (metatarsalgia)
- Flat feet & splayfoot
- Collapsed arches & arch pain
- tired, burning feet after long hours of standing or walking
The principle is always the same: stepz spread the pressure across the whole sole of your foot instead of just cushioning it. That way the spot that hurts gets relief, wherever it is. And if they're not right for you after all, you have 30 days to try them, with a money-back guarantee.
No. Many of our customers never had a diagnosis. All they knew was: every step hurts, in the morning, after work or on the very first walk.
stepz don't target a label, but the cause that almost all foot pain has in common: too much pressure on too little surface. Massage points, arch support and multi-layer cushioning spread that pressure, at the heel, in the arch and under the ball of your foot.
You'll feel the relief from the very first step, because the pressure is distributed differently right away. Still, give your feet a few days: the arch support feels unfamiliar at first because your foot is being supported instead of sinking in. That's exactly where many people give up too early with other insoles.
And if they're not right for you after 30 days, you get your money back.
It doesn't have to be either-or. Custom orthotics need a prescription, a specialist appointment and a trip to the medical supply store. Often you get one pair a year, and it only fits one shoe. stepz can be in your shoe today.
Many people come to us because their previous insoles were too hard, too soft or in the wrong place. stepz spread the pressure instead of just cushioning it, without being a hard shell.
Yes. stepz are designed to fit your normal shoe size perfectly.
- No need to size up your shoes
- Trimmable for an optimal fit
- Won't make your shoes tighter
- Fit easily in work shoes, sneakers, athletic shoes and more
Because your feet don't just hurt in one pair of shoes. With a second pair, you've got stepz in your work shoes and your everyday shoes and don't have to swap them every morning. And swapping is exactly when the insole gets left behind in the wrong shoe.
With the offer on this page, you get a free pair with every pair: 1+1, 2+2 or 3+3.
stepz are built to last.
With normal use and proper care, you can count on over 12 months of comfort and support.
To extend their lifespan, we recommend cleaning the insoles regularly by hand.

Stabbing pain in the heel. Burning under the ball of the foot. An arch that gives way by evening. Five typical situations.
By noon, the ball of my foot is burning
- Less pressure under the ball of your foot
- Your midfoot carries its share again
- Relief in your own work shoes
"The first two or three hours on the sales floor are okay. Then it feels like there's a sharp pebble in my shoe, right under the ball of my foot. Every step lands on the same spot. Soft pads wear through in a few days. I need an insole that takes the pressure off that spot and spreads it across my whole foot. So I can get through my shift without counting the minutes."
My doctor mentioned surgery — I wanted to try everything else first
- Less pressure on your painful heel
- The arch support takes load off the heel
- Try them for 30 days in your everyday life
"Since my heel spur diagnosis, I'm almost afraid to walk. The cortisone shot worked for a few weeks, then everything was back to how it was. When my doctor brought up surgery, I wanted to try everything else first. Another soft pad under my heel won't change where my weight lands. I want to get out with my grandkids on Sundays again without already thinking about the walk back."
Without insoles I can't last an hour
- Support for an arch that gives way
- Less pressure under the wide forefoot
- Trimmable to fit your own shoes
"Under load, my arch keeps stretching out and sagging, and my forefoot is getting wider. Without insoles I can't last an hour, and then it's not just my feet that hurt but my legs too. But the ones from the medical supply store only fit in sneakers. I need something that supports my arch and relieves my forefoot — in my own shoes."
It stabs like there's a nail in my heel
- Less pressure on your heel and sole
- Arch support instead of sinking in
- Not too soft, not too hard
"The first steps are the worst. It stabs like there's a nail in my heel, and after standing for a long time it comes back. Three pairs of insoles sit in my drawer: the custom orthotics feel like walking on wood, the soft ones went flat after two weeks. I need an insole that takes the pressure off my heel and supports my arch instead of just cushioning. So I can think about my day again, not my feet."
As the day goes on, everything sinks further
- Support for a flat arch
- Pressure spread out instead of on one spot
- Shock absorption for hard floors
"Warehouse worker. 12 hours. Concrete floor. I have flat feet, and over the course of the day everything sinks even further. By evening the soles of my feet are burning, my ankles ache, and I barely make it to the shower. Every soft insole was flat after a week. I need an insole that supports my arch and spreads the pressure instead of sinking down with me."
stepz® brings relief where ordinary insoles give up …
A healthy foot spreads your weight across three zones: heel, arch and ball of the foot. When the arch gives way under load, the pressure lands on too little surface: in the heel, under the ball of the foot or in the sagging arch itself. That's exactly where plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, ball-of-foot pain and the ache of flat feet and collapsed arches all start. Most insoles then rely on soft cushioning made of gel or foam. That feels good at first, but your foot sinks in with it. A cushion makes the spot softer. It doesn't change where your weight lands. After a few weeks the insole is flat, and the pain is back.
stepz works differently:
Support, distribute, cushion, in that order. The active arch support stabilizes the middle of your foot so it carries its share again. Structured massage points spread the pressure across the whole sole of your foot. The multi-layer shock absorption comes on top, not instead. That way the load never reaches the spot that hurts. Whether it's a stabbing heel, an aching arch or a burning ball of the foot.
