Super Feet - Premium Insole
HISTORY
The Superfeet Yellow Premium Insole (as the Grey) was first developed in the mid-80s to fit the Bauer Supreme 100 hockey skate. The insole’s original shape was created to function in a hockey skate boot, and was the first over-the-counter orthotic biomechanically designed to fit the exact heel-to-toe profile of hockey skates. Other skate insoles are derived from the flat insole molds of athletic footwear and do not offer the proper intrinsic ramp angles to accommodate an elevated heel. For over twenty years, this product has been, and continues to be, worn by numerous professional, junior, university and college hockey players.
The functionality of the product stems from its slim, low-profile design. Its snug fit offers unparalleled comfort in tight-fitting footwear while providing proper biomechanical support to the foot. The Yellow insole has the ability to make uncomfortable skates and other footwear extremely comfortable, while at the same time significantly increasing performance. After working successfully with this product in skates, we knew it had other possibilities in footwear outside the hockey business.
DESIGN FEATURES
One of the Yellow’s most important design features is an elevated heel that mirrors the boot ramp angle found in a hockey skate. This unique ‘ramp’ feature also functions extremely well in figure skates, road cycling shoes, cowboy boots and casual dress shoes with a 1.5 inch heel height – it also works exceptionally well in track spikes.

Custom-made, pro stock hockey sticks for the public? Yes!!
Are you over 6'0" like myself? Can't find a stick that is long enough without putting a wood extender plug into it? Have you purchased numerous sticks trying to figure out what works best for you? Are you buying sticks for your children figuring out the same thing? What of a blade pattern that gets discontinued that you just love? Are you using the right stick? Maybe you're not sure what you should be using! More than likely, unless you're a pro, no one has ever assisted in addressing these concerns. Many women might find themselves in the "tweener" place, where they are too small to be effectively using a Senior stick but too big for a Junior stick. Base makes a Junior Pro/Intermediate model for this very reason.
I can help. With all of these problems and more. If you live in MN and know what you want from perusing the website, I may order it for you. If you or your kids aren't sure what you need, or aren't happy with your current stick, I will be able to help you by walking you through the process. Would you like to see one of these sticks and get a feel for 'em? Demo sticks are on hand in Minneapolis currently. In the near future, I will have a place where customers will be able to go through a shooting analysis of sorts, with your skates on! It's just a part of the personal touch and service that Base Hockey offers.
Since these sticks will not be offered in retail stores, I am hoping that a strong initial grassroots push will get this off and running (skating). Even if you don't play hockey, please send this on or mention it to someone who does.
I greatly appreciate any support you all may offer.
