Best pickleball insoles

Why 2620s as your pickleball insoles?

Pickleballers are especially prone to lower-limb injuries

Correct foot alignment is critical in any sport – and particularly Pickleball. If your feet are not properly aligned, your balance will be certainly be affected. With imbalance present, compensation can creep in resulting in poor performance overall.

G8 Performance Pro Series 2620 Insoles help correct foot alignment, which can improve your Pickleball strokes and overall performance quite dramatically.

Pickleballers are prone to foot and ankle injuries – plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis much like tennis players are.

G8 2620's help reduce the risk of injury by providing fully customized support and cushioning to the feet, helping reduce stress on the joints. Injuries like:

- Patella tendonitis (jumper’s knee)

- Calf tear or rupture

- Ankle issues

- Plantar fascia rupture

- Achilles tendon damage

- Ankle injuries

- Lower leg and knee damage


Sprains and strains:

These injuries often occur to the ankles, knees, and wrists from sudden movements or changes of direction.

Soft tissue injuries:

These injuries can occur to the muscles, tendons, and ligaments from overuse or repetitive motion.

Overuse injuries:

These injuries can occur due to playing too much or training too hard, such as stress fractures or tendonitis.


And so, it is vital to strengthen your feet to prevent lower limb injury.

From injury prevention to performance

Leonardo da Vinci said, “The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art.”

When we study the engineering of the foot, we discover that it’s designed to move dynamically. But – even the best pickleball shoes by omissions in their design will over time, inhibit the foot’s natural movement.

This inhibition goes on to cause muscles to shrink, natural gait to change, and other parts of the body to unnaturally accommodate the force on your feet. 

2620’s inside your pickleball shoes encourage the foot’s natural movement – that is, the amazing feat of engineering our bodies were born with – and help prevent common tennis injuries by strengthening the feet.

Strong feet possess more power to propel you to meet the ball, endurance to carry you throughout the match, and greater accuracy of placement to ensure you’re on target.

Why wear insoles for pickleball if I don't have foot problems?

  • Sporting shoes inhibit the foot's ability to move naturally. This can lead to the muscles in your feet atrophying. This is what causes pain and numbness - so keeping your feet healthy and strong is an excellent way to prevent the pain from ever appearing in the first place.

  • Because they exercise your foot muscles, using 2620s as your pickleball orthotic insoles will over time, enhance your performance. By making your feet stronger, you’ll be able to expel more force through them, leading you to be more stable and move faster.

  • Your feet are more important than you think, and if they’re too weak, the rest of the body will have to compensate. This can lead to issues with your back, knees, ankles and more. The health of your feet has an impact on your overall health.

  • G8 Performance 2620 insoles have been designed to increase blood flow, and so support the healthy supply of blood to your feet. Healthy blood circulation is essential for general health and in the case of our feet can prevent conditions such as "hot foot".

  • G8 2620 insoles increase foot proprioception. Increasing the feeling in your foot is a great way to improve your balance and agility - and prevent falls or injuries caused by numbness of toes and feet.

Stronger feet mean:

1. Increased force transfer, which means greater forward momentum and less pressure on lower limbs

2. Better biomechanics and a positive effect on ankles, knees, hips and back

3. Better balance and brain-foot connection (proprioception), meaning your feet respond quickly and more accurately to your brain’s placement signals

Pickleball performance and injury prevention are implicitly tied to foot health and strength

G8 Performance 2620 insoles are specially designed to strengthen your feet by mimicking the dynamic function of bare feet even whilst you are wearing shoes.

Unlike other insole products on the market, 2620’s aren’t a ‘quick fix’.

Instead, they are designed to increase foot strength and health in the long term. And because 2620’s are fully customizable, they can be quickly and easily adjusted as your feet strengthen.

Many 2620 users report increased performance and endurance over time.

2620’s actively exercise and strengthen the forefoot by assisting flex at the forefoot for maximum energy disbursement on impact. This allows the foo to efficiently expel energy.

Other full-foot benefits include: 

- Supporting the foot throughout the entire gait cycle.

- Enhancing stretch and strength within the foot.

- Maintaining bone structure.

- Facilitating a more natural way of moving.

2620 benefits for pickleballers

  • Reduced torque on calf and Achilles (you know you have calf cramps no matter how much magnesium you take)

  • Increased blood flow (has cooling effect)
