Built for regular exercise: cushioning and arch support.
The Jogging device is ideal for the recreational runner who requires a more accommodating and supportive device for arch support than a stock athletic shoe insole. It replaces the sock liner in running and athletic shoes.
High-quality cushioning and arch contour absorb and evenly distribute the shock and impact endured from continuous ground reaction forces. Built congruent to the runner's own foot model, not an average.
Running shoes, replaces the sock liner
Designed to drop into running and athletic shoes once the factory sock liner is removed, giving real arch support in place of stock foam.
Maximum cushioning and durability
Myolite padding heel to toes, a Myolite arch filler, and an EVA top cover absorb repeated impact mile after mile.
Symptomatic feet & biomechanical pathology
Functional correction for runners managing moderate to advanced pathology, with a deep 12mm heel cup holding the calcaneus at heel strike.
Functional correction, congruent to the foot.
Built from a positive model of the patient's foot and modifiable at the clinician's discretion - scanned and ordered through FootID Pro.
Shape is everything.
What separates Root from generic sport insoles is the precise morphological shape captured from the patient's foot - held in the exact clinical position the clinician chose. No averaging. No guesswork.
The Jogging device is built from a positive model of the patient's foot and can be modified at the practitioner's discretion. This means every device fits the patient it was made for - not an approximation.
Modern Root
Width adjusted considering both borders. Default for all Root models.
Traditional Root
Justified to the lateral border. Used for specific clinical indications at practitioner discretion.
Modern Root shape process
- Forefoot balanced to rearfoot - forefoot-to-rearfoot relationship is optimised as the first step in shape modification.
- Fat pad expanded ~3mm - ensures the device fills the calcaneal contour precisely for the patient's heel.
- Arch lowered ~3mm - creates optimal heel-to-arch-to-met-head geometry. Not applied to foam impressions.
- Width tuned to both borders - medial and lateral widths considered together, giving a foundation that matches the patient's actual foot width.
*Subtalar joint neutral is found by palpating the talus head against the navicular. The neutral position can present many joint-on-joint and bone-on-bone relationships and varies from person to person. An everted or inverted calcaneus may be a neutral position for an individual person. Biomechanical evaluation required.
How you hold the foot is what we build.
Root is not just the orthotic - it's the clinician's positioning, captured and preserved in the device. After scanning, FootID Pro asks the questions no other lab asks.
After every scan, we need to know:
- Was the subtalar joint held in neutral?
- Was the midtarsal joint maximally pronated - loading the 5th metatarsal head?
- Was the midtarsal joint maximally supinated - loading the 1st metatarsal head?
- Was the forefoot brought perpendicular to the rearfoot?
- Was a forefoot-to-rearfoot balance bisection achieved at 90° relative to the calcaneal bisection?
The positioning of those 19 joints in the foot is what gives us the shape.
CAD/CAM fabrication
- Scan or cast captured - clinician captures foot morphology via FootID Pro, holding the subtalar joint in the chosen clinical position.
- Shape modification applied - forefoot balanced to rearfoot, fat pad expanded, arch adjusted using Root's design process.
- Technical staff review - every device reviewed against Traditional Root, Modern Root, Blake Inverted, or Accommodative principles.
- Fabricated to the shape - the polypropylene frame and EVA post are fabricated to match the submitted shape precisely.

Variation converted to anatomy-match accuracy by impression & fabrication method
How closely each method preserves the patient’s intended foot shape. Scale: 0–100%, where 100% = optimal congruence.
Plaster bandage is wrapped around the foot in the clinician’s prescribed corrected position, setting into a precise negative of the foot’s contour.
The foot is pressed into a crushable foam box, leaving a negative impression of the plantar surface.
An existing positive model from the patient’s previous orthotics is reused - KevinRoot accepts models from any lab, with frame-contour variance as low as 1%.
A digital scanner such as FootID Pro captures the foot surface as a 3D model.
A fiberglass casting sock is applied over the foot and cures to capture its contour.
Pedobarography captures the patient’s plantar pressure distribution (static or dynamic) at 1:1 scale - used with arch height and shoe size to select a redimold positive model, not to capture true 3D contour.
A direct-molding system using prefabricated, size- and arch-based positive models (33 in total) rather than an individual foot impression.
Heated material is vacuum-pressed over a plaster positive model, drawing it intimately into every contour.
The frame is 3D printed by selective laser sintering (SLS) directly from the CAD-designed digital frame.
A positive model is CNC-milled (CAD/CAM) from an STS, 3D scan, plaster, or foam impression, then the frame is vacuum formed over it.
A CNC machine subtractively mills the frame from a block of polypropylene or EVA per the digital design.
*Redimold has no physical or digital foot impression - patient-foot-to-cast congruent accuracy is unavailable. Variation from positive model to frame is low.
How your patient's foot shape becomes a precision frame.
The journey from clinical capture to finished Jogging frame is where Root's expertise lives. Every step preserves the shape and position the clinician chose for that patient.
- Foot impression captured - the clinician captures the foot using their preferred method. How the foot is held directly determines the congruency of the finished device.
- Positive model created - the impression becomes a physical plaster model or a digital CAD/CAM model. Digital models are stored indefinitely for future pairs.
- Root technicians modify the shape - every modification reviewed against the prescription. Rearfoot post, heel cup depth, and cover selection confirmed per patient.
- Jogging frame fabricated - the polypropylene shell is pressed over the positive model with a 12mm heel cup and intrinsic rearfoot post. A 15 Shore A Myolite arch filler, 1.5mm Myolite padding heel to toes, and 1.5mm EVA top cover are applied, forefoot balanced to rearfoot.
FitFoot360 Foot Model
- Root digital model stored indefinitely → recalled for future pairs
- Root technicians modify the digital shape in real-time: arch, heel, width, postings
- Vacuum formed over CAD/CAM positive model, direct milled or 3D printed Root Frame - replicable, consistent, precise
Real-time control over shape, function, and fit.
FitFoot360 gives Root's technicians complete digital control over every dimension of the orthotic frame - in real time. What once required physical carving and guesswork is now precise, repeatable, and stored permanently for every patient.
Digital positive model
Stored indefinitely. Future pairs, replacements, or modifications can be fabricated from the exact same shape without a new impression.
Real-time shape modification
Root technicians control arch, heel, width, and postings directly in the software.
Every parameter visible
Heel cup depth, frame reinforcement, ray cut-outs, flanges, and more are set per patient, not per template.
Plaster and foam digitisation
Physical models can be digitised for permanent storage. Note: digitising may not perfectly replicate the intimate contours achieved when vacuum forming directly over plaster.
Built to their spec. Built for their foot.
Every parameter of the Jogging device is set to the individual patient. Frame rigidity, rearfoot posting, heel cup depth, and covers are all chosen for that patient's anatomy, weight, and weekly mileage. Forefoot is balanced to rearfoot and the device is custom congruent to the foot model.
A pressed polypropylene frame, custom congruent to the foot model. Accommodating support that a stock insole cannot deliver.
An intrinsic rearfoot post stabilizes the rearfoot congruent to the patient's foot while keeping the device low in a running shoe.
Pressed from the patient's calcaneus, the deep 12mm heel cup controls inversion and eversion at heel strike, stride after stride.
A soft Myolite arch filler supports the frame and adds shock absorption under the arch through continuous ground reaction forces.
The arch contour is taken from the patient's own foot model, so load is distributed evenly rather than concentrated under the heel.
Myolite padding runs heel to toes beneath the EVA cover for maximum cushioning across the full length of the device.
An EVA top cover for maximum cushioning and durability, holding up to regular mileage.
Suede bottom cover protects the polypropylene shell and seats cleanly on the shoe's footbed.
