Elevations/Build ups

Elevation/Build Up

Addition to outside heel and/or sole to increase height of shoe’s heel.

HEEL ELEVATION:

addition to the heel of the shoe to increase heel height. Heel height is measured at center of heel.

HEEL & SOLE ELEVATION:

Heel, ball, and toe of shoe may be raised / built-up. If heel elevation is 1/2” or higher, a sole elevation is recommended to avoid an equinus posture. For each 1/2” added to the heel we recommend adding 1/4” to ball and 1/8” to toe.
