The ZeroSole Reliever is a customisable pressure-relief insole designed by UK podiatrists for the targeted offloading of corns, callus and other pressure-related plantar foot conditions. Its patented hexagonal silicone cell grid lets the clinician or user remove individual cells by hand directly beneath a painful area, creating a personalised offloading zone in minutes. Unlike gel or foam insoles that give uniform cushioning, ZeroSole combines full-length cushioning with focused pressure relief exactly where it is needed. It does this in a slim, low-profile insole that fits conventional enclosed footwear such as trainers, work shoes and boots, without the bulk of traditional modular systems or the need for post-operative shoes. The insole is ready to use straight from the box, making it ideal for chairside fitting: patients can leave the appointment with immediate pressure relief, including as an interim solution while custom foot orthoses are being designed and manufactured. Key Features Targeted customisation: remove any hexagonal cell by hand to create bespoke offloading under one or more pain points Evidence-led: laboratory pressure mapping (UWTSD) showed an average 28% reduction in pressure at targeted areas compared with standard footwear; a 6-week clinical evaluation (Cardiff Metropolitan University) showed statistically significant pain reduction and decreases in plantar lesion size Chairside fitting: customised in minutes without grinding equipment, adhesives or additional workshop time Bridge to custom orthoses: provides immediate offloading before custom insole fitting, and helps identify the offloading pattern a patient responds to Low profile: approximately 5.5mm at the forefoot for everyday enclosed footwear Durable: medical-grade silicone retains its shape for 6 to 8 months of daily use, outlasting compressible felt and foam padding Arch support and heel cup: help redistribute load across the foot Developed by podiatrists: created by UK podiatrists David Barton and Heather Smart, and used across the NHS and UK retail pharmacy Technical Characteristics Brand: ZeroSole by Kaydiar Medical Model: ZeroSole Reliever Materials: silicone cells, memory foam mid-layer, poly-suede (moleskin) top cover Forefoot thickness: approx. 5.5mm Heel height (external): approx. 20mm Customisation: removable hexagonal cells Fitting: trim-to-size guides for UK, EU and US shoe sizes Footwear: conventional enclosed shoes, trainers and boots Usage life: 6 to 8 months of daily wear Supplied as: one pair per box Typical Applications in Prosthetics & Orthotics Plantar corns and callus Metatarsalgia and forefoot pain Plantar heel pain and plantar fasciitis Pressure-induced foot pain from worn or ill-fitting footwear Chairside interim offloading before custom foot orthoses are fitted Trialling offloading positions to inform custom insole prescriptions Long-term daily management and prevention of recurring lesions Typical Users Podiatry and chiropody clinics Orthotic and pedorthic clinics Foot health practitioners and diabetic foot teams (under clinical guidance) Hospital outpatient and community foot care services Pharmacies and retailers offering over-the-counter foot care What's in the Kit 1 pair of ZeroSole Reliever insoles Adhesive pressure-point markers for transferring the lesion position Instructions for use Sizes Small-Medium: UK 4-7 Medium-Large: UK 8-11 How to Fit Trim to size using the integrated guide Apply the marker to the pain point on the foot Step onto the insole to transfer the mark to the cells beneath Remove the marked cells by hand from the underside Insert into the shoe and wear People with diabetic peripheral neuropathy or peripheral vascular disease should use ZeroSole under the guidance of a podiatrist or other healthcare professional. The ZeroSole Reliever gives clinicians a fast, evidence-led way to offload painful plantar lesions at the chair, in everyday shoes, and to bridge patients to custom orthoses with immediate relief.

ZeroSole is an ideal chairside solution for clinicians managing pre-ulcerative pressure areas in people with diabetes. Its removable hex-cell technology enables immediate, targeted plantar offloading—without grinding, heating, gluing or waiting for a custom device to be manufactured. When a clinician identifies a callus, corn, localised pressure point or other pre-ulcerative area, the corresponding hexagonal cells can be removed from beneath that location. This creates an instant offloading cavity while the surrounding cells continue supporting the foot and redistributing plantar load. ZeroSole can be fitted during a single appointment, making it particularly valuable for diabetic-foot clinics, podiatry departments, orthotic services and community healthcare programmes requiring a fast, practical intervention. Clinical Applications: Chairside management of pre-ulcerative plantar pressure areas Offloading beneath calluses, corns and areas of recurrent hyperkeratosis Reducing pressure beneath metatarsal heads and other high-risk locations Providing immediate support while custom footwear or foot orthoses are prepared Extending pressure management between diabetic-foot appointments Supporting patients in community, home-care and outreach settings Why ZeroSole for Diabetic-Foot Services? Customised and fitted during the patient’s appointment No workshop machinery or specialist fabrication equipment required Individual cells can be removed precisely beneath the identified pressure area Provides an immediate response to a developing pressure concern Durable silicone structure retains the offloading cavity better than temporary foam padding Easy to inspect, clean and review during follow-up Suitable for most enclosed footwear with sufficient internal depth Offers a practical, cost-effective option for high-volume clinics and community programmes Evidence-Led Pressure Relief ZeroSole was developed by practising UK podiatrists. Laboratory and clinical evaluations reported statistically significant pain reduction and up to a 28% reduction in peak plantar pressure when the insole was customised to offload the targeted area. Five-Step Chairside Fitting: Assess the foot and identify the pre-ulcerative or high-pressure area. Trim the insole to match the patient’s footwear. Mark and transfer the affected location onto the insole. Identify the corresponding hexagonal cells. Remove the selected cells, insert the insole and verify fit and offloading. Product Features: Patented removable hex-cell design Medical-grade silicone and memory-foam construction Forefoot thickness: approximately 5.5mm Heel thickness: approximately 20mm Expected lifespan: approximately six to eight months with regular use Sizes: Small–Medium, UK 4–7; Medium–Large, UK 8–11 Supplied as a pair with five marker stickers and fitting instructions Designed in the United Kingdom ZeroSole should be fitted as part of a comprehensive diabetic-foot management plan that includes clinical assessment, appropriate footwear, skin surveillance, patient education and regular review. It is intended to support pressure redistribution around intact pre-ulcerative areas and should not be applied over an active diabetic foot ulcer without specialist clinical direction. ZeroSole—instant, targeted chairside offloading for proactive diabetic-foot care.
