Performance Questions
What do KNTEX Insoles do that other insoles don’t?
KNTEX Insoles are designed with a unique carbon fiber baseplate that captures and returns the energy you generate. Standard foam insoles, commonly found in sneakers and cleats, lack this technology. Instead of storing energy, foam insoles absorb it and allow it to dissipate into the ground.
This is crucial because the energy you generate directly impacts your speed, jump height, and overall explosiveness. Losing that energy means sacrificing potential performance gains. KNTEX Insoles are engineered to store energy in the carbon fiber baseplate and release it during push-off, enhancing your athletic performance on the field or court.

How does KNTEX Insole’s customizable baseplate impact performance?
The carbon fiber baseplate is tailored to your height, weight, and sport to match your energy output. Explosive movements like sprinting and jumping rely on efficiently capturing and returning energy.
Heavier athletes and those in high-impact sports need a stiffer baseplate for maximum energy return, while lighter athletes benefit from more flexibility for precise energy transfer. This customization helps every athlete optimize performance.
What do we mean when we say KNTEX Insoles “return energy”?
Every time you run or jump, your foot bends and generates energy with each step. This energy is essential for forward and upward movement. Traditional foam insoles absorb most of this energy and disperse it into the ground, which limits your performance potential.
KNTEX Insoles utilize a carbon fiber baseplate that captures and stores this energy at impact. During push-off, the stored energy is released back to you, amplifying your speed, power, and explosiveness. This energy return system is what makes KNTEX Insoles a game-changer for athletic performance.

Can KNTEX Insoles help improve sprint speed and jump height?
Yes! Independent research studies show that athletes wearing KNTEX Insoles increased their vertical jump by up to 2.54 inches and broad jump by 11 inches, with measurable sprint speed improvements. The energy return system enhances explosive power, helping you generate more speed, higher jumps, and quicker movements. Whether you're looking to get faster off the line or jump higher for a game-changing play, KNTEX gives you the edge.
Are KNTEX Insoles comfortable despite the stiff carbon fiber baseplate?
Absolutely! KNTEX Insoles are designed for both comfort and performance with three precision-engineered layers. The carbon fiber baseplate provides energy return, while the high-density foam enhances durability and absorbs impact. A low-density foam layer adds flexibility and cushioning for a soft, comfortable feel. This multi-layer design ensures lasting comfort and support, even in high-impact sports.
Are KNTEX Insoles legal in sports?
Yes, KNTEX Insoles are fully legal across all sports leagues. They do not create new energy; rather, they store and return the energy that athletes naturally generate. Because they work with an athlete’s existing movement rather than providing an artificial advantage, they comply with league regulations and maintain fair competition.
Can KNTEX Insoles improve traction in cleats?
Yes! KNTEX Insoles enhance traction by stabilizing the foot inside the cleat. The carbon fiber baseplate improves foot alignment and minimizes unnecessary movement, allowing for better energy transfer and improved ground contact. This added stability translates to sharper cuts, quicker sprints, and more controlled pivots on the field.
F.A.Q.
Why do I need to enter my sport?
Different types of shoes have different fits. For example, soccer shoes are much tighter than basketball shoes. To account for this, we offer foam cushions in different thicknesses: yellow (6mm), black (4mm), and red (2mm). Because of these differences, athletes who play multiple sports may find it difficult to switch the same insoles between loose-fitting and tight-fitting shoes.
How do I know KNETX Insoles will fit my shoes?
Our insoles are true to size. If you wear a size 42.5 shoe, order a size 43 insole. We understand that some sports shoes, like cleats and spikes, fit more snugly, which is why we ask about the sport you play. If the fit isn’t right when you receive your KNETX, just contact us for a free exchange. We get the size right about 98% of the time!
How are KNETX Insoles customized for each athlete?
KNETX Insoles are highly personalized. They are designed based on shoe size, sport, and body weight. KNETX offers five levels of flexibility. Larger athletes generate more ground force than smaller athletes.
Do KNETX Insoles come in different widths or arch types?
No, we do not make KNETX Insoles in different widths or arch types. They are designed to be arch-agnostic, and our sizes are very generous in width. KNETX insoles fit most foot types and sizes, but if you have any comfort issues after trying them, please contact us.
What is KNETX’s warranty policy?
We offer a 90-day Money-Back Guarantee. If you’re not satisfied with your KNETX, email us at info@getknetx.com with your full name and/or order number and let us know what you didn’t like about them. For international returns, customers are responsible for shipping the KNETX back to our office. We strive to make every KNETX customer a happy customer!
Do you offer product exchanges?
Yes, about 5-10% of the time, we may need to adjust the size or flexibility of your KNETX insoles. We do our best to ensure you get the right fit. If you need an exchange, email us at info@getknetx.com with your full name, order number, and the issue. We’ll provide instructions for the exchange process. International customers will be responsible for shipping costs.
