About FootLab, Minneapolis
St. Paul's Custom Insole Experts

Experienced Custom Foot Fitting Experts For Over Thirty Years In The St. Paul - Minneapolis Metro Area

FootLab grew from our decade’s long work with skiers. The human foot is simply not designed to function properly in an inflexible ski boot at 30, 40 or even 50mph. The loads that the foot is subjected to under those circumstances are tremendous. Our background as ski instructors and ski boot fitters allowed us to intimately evaluate the merit of the various support systems on the market and develop our own support system that markedly improved the performance of skiers of all ability levels.

The move from skiers to athletes, trades people, the general public and their everyday footwear was a natural evolution to our foot support journey

Skiers, as a group, are active in many other sports. Our skier clients were runners, soccer players, golfers, football players, baseball players, construction workers and trades people. Once they experienced the performance and support improvements from improved ski boot support, they looked for the same benefits in their general footwear.

There is a large selection of support options for general and sport related footwear. The FootLab offers several options that range from inexpensive over-the-counter insoles to our best quality custom molded and custom manufactured insoles that are unique for your foot and your specific footwear needs. Whatever your price and performance needs are, FootLab has a game improving, comfort oriented pedorthic solution that will keep your feet and your body happy.
