Description

Tuli’s Heavy Duty Heel Cups

Tuli’s Heavy Duty Heel Cups are orthopaedic heel support appliances designed to provide extra heel cushioning and shock absorption during walking, standing, sport and everyday activity. They help cushion the heel and support comfort when repetitive heel impact is a problem.

These heel cups are commonly used by athletes, active kids, people who stand or walk for long periods, and anyone looking for additional heel protection in athletic shoes, cleats, work boots or more spacious lace-up shoes.

Heavy Duty Heel Cushioning and Shock Absorption

Tuli’s Heavy Duty Heel Cups use a multi-cell, multi-layer design that helps absorb shock and return impact energy as the foot loads during walking or running. The heel cup helps cushion the painful area and slightly elevates the heel bone, which may help reduce pressure through the Achilles tendon and heel area.

Compared with Tuli’s Classic Heel Cups, the Heavy Duty version is thicker and provides more cushioning for higher-impact use. As a result, it is usually best in athletic shoes, cleats, work boots and shoes with enough room to accept a thicker heel cup.

Common Uses

Tuli’s Heavy Duty Heel Cups are often used when the heel needs more cushioning than a regular shoe insert can provide. They are especially helpful when footwear has enough depth to accommodate a thicker heel cup.

Common uses include:

  • Heel pain support
  • Plantar fasciitis discomfort
  • Sever’s disease heel discomfort in active kids and teens
  • Achilles tendon-related heel pressure
  • Shin splints and repetitive impact discomfort
  • Sports and high-impact activity
  • Standing or walking for long periods
  • Work boots, athletic shoes, cleats and roomy lace-up shoes

How to Choose the Correct Size

Choose the size based on both body weight and shoe size. If you are between sizes, footwear fit can also matter. The Heavy Duty version is thicker than the Classic version, so it works best in shoes with enough room in the heel area.

Important fit note before ordering

Tuli’s Heavy Duty Heel Cups are thicker than Tuli’s Classic Heel Cups. They work best in athletic shoes, cleats, work boots and more spacious lace-up shoes. They may feel too bulky in tight dress shoes, narrow shoes or low-volume footwear.

For best results, allow time to get used to the feel of the heel cups. If the heel cup moves around inside the shoe, the shoe may be too roomy, too narrow in the heel, or not suitable for this style of heel cup.

Heavy Duty vs Classic Heel Cups

Choose Tuli’s Heavy Duty Heel Cups when you need more cushioning for sport, standing, walking, work boots or higher-impact activity. They are thicker and provide more cushioning than the Classic version.

Choose Tuli’s Classic Heel Cups when you need a lower-profile option for everyday shoes with less available space.

Sold as a pair

Tuli’s Heavy Duty Heel Cups are sold as one pair. For proper balance, heel cups are usually worn in both shoes unless a healthcare professional has advised otherwise.

Tax exempt with a prescription
