Step-by-Step Quick Boot-Fit
​
Step 1: Prepare Your Boots and Inserts
* Begin by removing the inserts from both your left and right combat boots.
* Put on the socks you typically wear with your combat boots.
​
Step 2: Position Yourself
* Stand up and let your toes spread naturally on the inserts.
* Distribute your weight evenly to check the fit.
​
Step 3: Check Toe Space
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the end of your toes and the front edge of the insert.
​​
Step 4: Verify Width Coverage
Verify that the inserts cover the widest part of both your left and right feet.
​​​
Step 5: Check Heel Position
Confirm that your heel is positioned approximately 5 mm from the back edge of the inserts.
​​​
Step 6: Align Flex Points
Check that the flex point of your left and right feet aligns with that of the insoles.
​​​
Step 7: Assess Forefoot Coverage
Finally, verify that the shape of the insoles adequately covers the forefoot area of your feet.
