NEXT GENERATION INSOLE
Your game changes
from the heel.
You don't have to believe it.
First, watch this video.
This video has been viewed
1 million times on social media.
Just by putting it in their shoes,
they can withstand the force of a 2-meter tall athlete.
"That's a lie!! It must be staged!"
The comment section was flooded with such voices. But this is really happening.
It's the result of trying it with hundreds of athletes in high schools and teams nationwide.
Why does this happen?
We will now explain the reason.

were most surprised.
Custom Insoles
vs
TOP PERFORMER
When Miyamoto held custom insoles, he stumbled when pushed from the side.
The moment he switched to TOP PERFORMER, he didn't budge even when pushed hard.
"This is amazing! "
A player from the Japan High School Selection Team,
When pushed while wearing other insoles that looked good, his posture collapsed.
On TOP PERFORMER, he pushed back even when shoved.
"Really!? Why?
I can push back!"
This change occurs just by standing on them barefoot.
The change that the athletes in the video felt,
can be yours too.

We conducted several physical ability tests, comparing performance with and without TOP PERFORMER insoles.
As a result, performance improvement was observed in many categories.
According to our company's research (N=20)
Design Concept
This isn't "guts" or
"staged."
The structural design of the sole of the foot
was the key.
The sole of the human foot is densely packed with sensory receptors related to overall posture. TOP PERFORMER is an insole designed to leverage these foot sole sensations.
A unique structure to stabilize
heel contact.
You don't need to be conscious of it. Just by wearing them,
the design starts changing the sensation in your feet.
Structure that minimizes power loss during push-off
The design stabilizes the heel's contact position, resulting in a structure that prevents energy loss during push-off. This supports quick and sharp movements.
Design that stabilizes the heel's contact position
The convex shape of the heel stabilizes its contact position, making it easier to maintain posture. This supports stability during physical contact.
Supports natural movement from the sole to the core
Designed for smooth load transfer from the heel to the ball of the foot. Supports movements that utilize the entire sole.
How you use your "heel"
can change your movement this much.
Skill osteopath Takahashi explains based on his knowledge from seeing over 10,000 athletes.
First step of a drive (1-on-1)
Leaning forward, accelerating after braking
Trying to move after "braking hard" with the ball of the foot (base of the big toe). Toes are lifted, not gripping the ground.
Weight on the heel, 5 toes grip the ground
By firmly placing weight on the heel, all five toes that were lifted begin to "firmly" grip the ground and function.
Aerial Battle (Rebound/Jump)
Knees turn inward on takeoff, losing power
At the moment of takeoff, the knees turn inward (knee-in), causing the force to kick off the ground to escape outwards.
Heel to toe becomes easier to link in a straight line
Designed to stabilize the heel, making it easier for the entire sole to work together. Helps maintain body axis and extend straight upwards.
Physical Contact (Pushing)
Weight on toes, unstable base swaying
With weight concentrated on the toes, the body's base is unstable. Even with core training, it's difficult to exert force if the base is swaying.
Heel settles, making it easier to maintain a stable posture
Designed to stabilize the heel, making it easier for the pelvis to spine to settle into the correct position, naturally forming an arch.

Voices of athletes

SoccerWhy I created
this insole.
Coming earlier than anyone, staying later than anyone. The effort piled up while pushing bodies to their limits was dismissed with a single word: "talent," "physique," "sense."
The harder you try, the more tired you get. The more you practice, the more you break down. Yet, I always felt something was wrong with a world that tells you to "try harder."
In particular, it was quite painful when I met a child who, despite working incredibly hard, had to leave their sport due to a major injury. I wondered if there was a way to help them earlier, in a different way.
It's not that they're not trying hard enough.
It's that their efforts aren't reaching their bodies, is it?
I consulted with my deeply respected mentor. The response was, "An approach with insoles might work."
It started with cutting the insoles that were already in shoes. Trying and failing. Remaking and failing. Before I knew it, that period of trial and error had lasted two years.
I want them to feel sensations like "it's easier to grip the ground," "my feet feel stable," "starts are smooth," and "the fit is good," and rediscover the joy of playing.
Effort doesn't go to waste. Time invested doesn't become meaningless. To create a body that can believe in itself again. To help with that, I created TOP PERFORMER.

Timeline
Guide to the
changes after starting use
Changes in body sensation and movement take time to settle in.
First, without rushing, check the changes in the sensation of your feet.
Feelings in your feet change
This is the period when many report "my feet feel stuck to the ground" and "the fit is different."
Sense of movement begins to change
This is the period when many athletes feel "my movements have become smoother" and "my feet have become more stable."
Feel a tangible difference in your play
Some even report teammates saying, "Your movements have changed recently."
"Completely different from before"
This is the period when stability in the feet becomes established, and players begin to feel more ease in their overall play.
※ Individual experiences and durations of change may vary. Continued use is recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q
Is the video staged?
No, it's not staged. The insoles are designed to provide appropriate stimulation to the sensory receptors on the soles of the feet, which leads to a change in postural stability. This is the result of testing with hundreds of athletes in high schools and teams across the country.
Q
How is it different from other insoles?
Traditional insoles primarily focus on supporting the arch with their shape. TOP PERFORMER is based on a different design philosophy: stabilizing the heel's contact point and utilizing the sensory input from the sole of the foot.
Q
Why don't the insoles have an arch?
Actually, the reason the foot arch disappears is because the foot cannot "grip" (just moving the toes isn't enough).
While there are insoles that forcibly create an arch, our view is that this does not fundamentally solve the problem.
With Top Performer, the skin reaction on the heel improves toe movement, allowing the foot to unconsciously perform a gripping motion. This is a complex topic, but it's the effect of skin reaction.
To understand this fully, there's too much to write here, so please read our blog.
Q
How long does it take to feel a difference?
It varies from person to person, but some people feel a change in their foot sensation within 1-2 weeks. For changes in play, please allow about 1 month.
Q
I have foot pain, can I use this?
If you are currently undergoing treatment for a medical condition, please consult your doctor before use. This product is not a medical device.

Yes. It is suitable for all sports such as volleyball, soccer, track and field, and for everyday wear.
Q
