The Slimline is made of a medium-rigid compound designed to never flatten crack or break, and it carries our exclusive Good Feet Lifetime Warranty. The Slimline is reinforced along the inner longitudinal arch, and is designed to provide a firm, yet flexible support for dress or athletic shoes. While it flexes under pressure, the Slimline’s low profile and slight rigidity make it an ideal match for medium- to lower arches in tighter-fitting shoes.
Flexibility: Flexible
The Slimline’s flexibility and sleek silhouette make it a discrete companion in even the most unique fashion shoes, including high heels. The Slimline’s semi-rigid construction means it can tough out the most demanding days under feet standing on hard surfaces in any shoe, from work boots to high heels.
What’s in a Slimline?
Heel Cup
The heel end of the Slimline features a very slight heel cup, designed to help support the active heel without preventing the foot from the natural freedom it enjoys in open-heeled shoes. The Slimline’s heel cup features a beveled edge that braces against the insides of closed-heel shoes to help protect the heel against excessive step-shock.
What Does It Do, And How Can It Help?
The Slimline’s heel cup helps to support the Transverse arch, which is located in front of the heel. This arch includes a sensitive spot where the very important Plantar Fascia ligament connects to the heel bone. The Slimline helps to maintain the position the heel acquired while wearing the Exerciser and Maintainer supports in a complete arch support system. Working with the Exerciser and Maintainer supports, the Slimline can help make sure that the Transverse arch is supported in even the tightest-fitting dress shoes.
The lower profile of the Slimline’s design allows it to fit comfortably in open-heeled dress shoes, with the aid of some Good Feet Velcro attached to the bottom of the support.
Inner And Outer Longitudinal Arch Support
The smooth curves of the Slimline’s inner and outer longitudinal arch support flex beneath the foot with each step, providing gentle support for the arches in practically any shoe. The Slimline can improve the fit and feel of feet in even the “skinniest” of dress shoes.
What Does It Do, And How Does It Help?
The front end of the Slimline tapers off gracefully, allowing the bones that form the top of the foot to rest from being realigned by the Exerciser and Maintainer supports. Having no metatarsal rise, the Slimline supports three out of four arches in each foot. The most prominent arch in the Slimline is the Inner Longitudinal, (instep) which gradually rises from the heel to the ball of the foot. Since it is constructed of a semi-rigid formula, the Slimline’s Inner Longitudinal arch can help to preserve the foot’s instep from even the hardest surfaces.
The Slimline is designed to make sure you are comfortable in any shoe, especially the shoe styles in which your other arch supports may not fit as comfortably. You can wear the Slimline in open-heeled sandals, dress shoes, or any other hard-to-fit style.
As part of a complete Good Feet Arch Support System, the Slimline is ideal for:
- Leisure, casual and dress shoes
High heels
Rest and relaxation
