Carbon Fiber Insert

The RTP Carbon Fiber Insert was engineered as a high-performance alternative to traditional spring steel inserts. Designed to fit either the right or left shoe, these inserts provide enhanced rigidity while significantly reducing weight. In fact, the RTP insert weighs just one-quarter of a spring steel insert, eliminating concerns about rust or shoe damage.

Key Benefits and Features

RTP carbon fiber inserts offer exceptional strength while remaining ultra-lightweight. Also called carbon fiber plates or foot plates, they serve to reduce stress on the forefoot and mid-foot by limiting excessive range of motion. This support helps both acute and chronic injuries heal faster and prevents further damage during daily activities or athletic performance.

Versatile Applications

Athletes and patients alike benefit from RTP inserts. They provide effective stabilization for various foot injuries, including turf toe, metatarsal stress fractures, toe fractures, Lis Franc injuries, Jones fractures, mid-foot sprains, and post-operative recovery. The insert fits comfortably under removable shoe liners or full-length custom orthotics for added protection.

Product Options and Usage

• Rigid Density: Ideal for acute injuries needing maximum support, such as Lis Franc injuries or metatarsal fractures. Often recommended for athletes returning to play.

• Arthritic Density: Designed for patients with mid-foot arthritis or conditions requiring limited foot movement. Not recommended for competitive athletes.

These inserts come individually and are sized to fit either left or right feet. Proper sizing involves measuring the foot barefoot in centimeters to find the perfect match.
