fusion-insoleORTHOLITE: Fusion High-Performance Insoles
OrthoLite insoles are an easy and affordable way to upgrade the quality of your shoes! OrthoLite offers enhanced comfort and solutions to many common in-shoe problems with innovative technology, including long-lasting cushioning, high-level breathability and wicking, a patented biocide and unrivaled durability.
A lot of us are starting new exercise regimens in the New Year, I know I am! Admittedly, it had been a while since I’d seen let alone worn my running shoes and the opportunity to try Ortholite Fusion insoles was a huge motivator to bring those babies out of retirement and start a new fitness chapter. If you’re already a fitness buff, the Ortholite Fusion insoles will give your favorite running or walking shoes a huge upgrade in comfort, shoe performance and ultimately your performance!
  • Designed to fit all athletic and outdoor shoes or boots
  • Made with open-cell foam, allowing air to circulate around the foot, keeping it cooler and drier inside the shoe
  • Wicks moisture away from your foot leaving your foot cooler and drier
  • Unique spring-back technology ensures that your insole won’t flatten out and it will retain over 95% of its thickness over time
  • Patented anti-microbial formulation (approved by the EPA and FDA) fights fungus, bacteria and shoe odor
  • Lightweight and fully washable

The insoles come in whole sizes only and can be trimmed to fit your shoe. Instructions come with the insoles on how to measure and cut them, and my best advice is use sharp scissors! It was surprisingly easy to do, and after a few minor adjustments the Fusion insoles were snugly fit into my running shoes.

Cutting to Fit

Initially I was expecting a huge difference in feeling just from putting the shoes on, but I’m the eternal optimist. It honestly wasn’t until I went out for a walk that I felt the full cushion and support that the Ortholite Fusion provides. I am thrilled because I was worried that the insoles wouldn’t fit well or would be too thick, but they fit quite comfortably and the fact that they’re removable and washable is wonderful too! These insoles are like a ‘mini-makeover’ for your shoes.

Ortholite works with every leading brand in the footwear/shoe industry from Nike, Adidas and NewBalance to Prada, L.L. Bean and Rockport. They also dontate $1 of each Fusion insole purchase to the Level Field Fund: Bridging Gaps for Uniquely Talented Athletes.

The LOOK for LESS: Cute Summer Wedges

by on June 8, 2010, 3 comments



Last night I was browsing the net on my hunt for cute Summer wedges and I absolutely fell in love with these cute Steve Madden leather sling back wedges.

Retailing at $90.00 for the moment, these are out of my league!


So, continuing on my hunt I remembered a cute pair of boots I wanted back in high school. They were over $200 and my mom told me to just ‘put the energy out in the universe’ and be patient, of course at the time I was like ‘but moooom!’ And sure enough she was right! A few days later I found a pair almost identical (of a different brand) at Ross for $40.


I’ve been wanting to order something from AMI Clubwear for quite some time and imagine my surprise when browsing their collection of wedges, I found these for $19.99!

Since my birthday is coming up in a few weeks I’ve put a couple of things in my shopping cart. My hubby doesn’t take ‘hints’ well, I’ll just send him the wishlist! :)


Happy Shopping!
