Superfeet Run Pacer is a performance insole launched at an accessible price point for runners who want to experience Superfeet’s leading technology and enhanced bounce and responsiveness from their shoes, whether they're younger runners or competitive high school athletes. While runners are often ready and willing to invest hundreds of dollars in performance footwear, this new insole asks them to question if there's another, more affordable way to enhance their experience.
The all-new and unisex Run Pacer is built with SuperRev foam—the same advanced supercritical foam found in Superfeet's Run Pacer Elite insoles—and features a contoured arch shape, targeted heel cushioning, and a Moisturewick top cover made with 100% recycled material that helps reduce odors.
Run Pacer retails for $44.99, and Superfeet describes it as "the simplest way to get more out of your running shoes."
