  • Patent number: 5638613
    Abstract: A weighted insole with a pair of flat weights encapsulated inside a flexible material which is formed into an insole for placement in a shoe. A first weight is encapsulated in front, and a second weight is encapsulated behind, the ball-of-the-foot area. The second weight additionally has cutouts at the arch and heel areas of the foot. These unweighted areas throughout their thickness include insole material which provides extra comfort and cushioning where the user typically places more weight on the foot. The front and back weighted construction additionally allows for flexibility of the insole at the ball area. A pattern of nodes is projected from the bottom of the insole to frictionally hold the insole in place in the shoe.
