How Should You Care for Your Orthotics?

Taking proper care of your orthotic insoles is essential for maintaining their shape, support, and durability over time.

Simple routine cleaning keeps them hygienic and comfortable without compromising the structural materials.

Safe Cleaning and Drying Steps

To clean your orthotics, simply remove them from your footwear and scrub them lightly using warm, soapy water. Once clean, place them outside in a warm, sunny spot to air dry completely before placing them back into your shoes.

What to Avoid When Washing Orthotics

High heat and harsh mechanical washing can permanently distort or denature the orthotic material. Never wash your orthotics in a washing machine or dishwasher, and avoid using an oven or direct high heat sources to speed up the drying process.

Quick Tips for Long-Lasting Orthotics

  • Remove orthotics from shoes and scrub gently with warm, soapy water.
  • Air dry in a warm, sunny location outside.
  • Avoid washing machines and dishwashers.
  • Keep away from ovens or extreme heat sources.
Hand Washing TipUse a soft cloth or gentle sponge when cleaning your insoles to protect the top cover and cushion layer from premature wear.
