Because of the Merino wool top cover, it is not recommended that you wear them in your running shoes. The repetitive movement from running may compact or wear the wool layer away prematurely, diminishing its cozy properties.
Washing the woolyWHITE is different than washing any other Superfeet insole. Heat, agitation and detergent should NOT be used! Clean with cool water and mild soap. Use your fingers to pat out dirt. Dry by pressing with a paper towel and air drying away from a heat source overnight, or until completely dry.
Yes! woolyWHITE can be used in any boots or slippers, rain boots, or casual footwear that may be cozy, but may not be giving your feet the support they need. woolyWHITE can also add life to older footwear with its naturally breathable, moisture wicking and renewable resource (Merino wool).
Our woolyWHITE insoles have approximately the same support as our BLUE product. The two products are built on a stabilizer cap with the same versatile shape, but the addition of the Merino wool top cover on the woolyWHITE adds a bit more volume (making it slightly thicker than the BLUE). The moderately deep heel cup cradles the calcaneal pad to optimize natural shock absorption.
Wool has inherent breathable, moisture-wicking and hypoallergenic properties. The 90% Merino wool top cover of our woolyWHITE should naturally help prevent your feet from becoming sweaty. As with our REDhot and hotPINK products, if your feet are sweaty you may want to look at the type of sock you are combining with your insole.
Because of the ramped angle of a skate, we don't recommend using our products that were designed to lay flat in a shoe. We have designed our YELLOW insole for footwear that has a raised heel compared to the forefoot and recommend you use this insole in skates. Superfeet YELLOW also has a much thinner profile than any of our other insoles so it works best in tight-fitting skates.
