The Footprint Gamechanger Elite Low insoles represent the most advanced evolution of Footprint’s impact protection technology. Designed for demanding riders and active users, they deliver maximum shock absorption in a low-profile format that preserves natural board feel and shoe fit. Built on Footprint’s patented insole technology and re-engineered using a patent-pending construction method, this Elite version significantly improves arch support, durability, and thermal comfort. Thanks to their heat-moldable design, the insoles adapt directly to the shape of your foot, functioning like a custom orthotic without sacrificing responsiveness. The result is a precise balance of protection, stability, and comfort for high-impact use.
Performance
In performance terms, the Gamechanger Elite Low are engineered to withstand repeated heavy impacts while maintaining consistent response. They absorb nearly twice as much shock as the original Gamechangers, reducing stress on heels and forefoot during hard landings and long sessions. Enhanced arch support promotes better foot alignment and stability, helping to minimize fatigue. Despite the added protection, the low-profile design maintains excellent ground and board feel, which is essential for technical riding. Performance remains stable across all temperatures, avoiding the stiffness common in traditional foams.
Functional construction
The construction combines multiple functional layers working together for durability and comfort. A tough TPU top layer increases lifespan to two or three times that of previous Gamechangers. Beneath it, the Comfort Plus foam core delivers consistent cushioning while staying soft in both cold and warm conditions. With a thickness of 3 mm at the toe and 5 mm at the heel, these insoles fit most shoes without altering their original volume. They can also be trimmed down by up to one full size for a precise fit.
Technology applied to performance
The core technology of the Gamechanger Elite Low lies in their heat-activated arch system. When heated, the internal arch chamber expands and molds to the unique shape of the user’s foot. This process customizes support and optimizes pressure distribution across the sole. Once cooled, the molded shape remains fixed, providing consistent, personalized support during every session.
