Technical by Nature.

We traded petroleum-based plastics for renewable performance. See the difference natural fibers make for your feet.

High-Density Felted Wool

The Thermal Interface

Our insoles use multi-density felted wool across both the top sheet and support layers. Unlike synthetic foams that trap moisture, wool creates a breathable microclimate that naturally regulates temperature and neutralizes odour. In the ArchSupport, we vary the density of the wool to create an anatomical cradle that supports your foot, reducing fatigue and improving comfort.

Woven Structural Linen

The Torsion Core

Along with our felt, linen is our replacement for petroleum-based plastic shells. On the LowProfile, a dual-layer linen construction (mid and bottom) provides a slim, high-tenacity foundation. For the ArchSupport, the linen serves as a rugged base layer, helping provide the necessary "snap" and structural integrity required for high-output days on the trail.

Natural Latex

The Resilient Bond

We use natural latex as our primary bonding agent to fuse layers together without toxic adhesives. This creates a durable, flexible bond that holds up over time. In the ArchSupport model, the arch layer is infused with latex to add reinforced stability and spring that won’t pack out. The result is a tacky, high-friction base that keeps the insole securely in place, even through long days and sustained use.

The "engine" of our supportive models. The wool arch layer is fully combined with natural latex to add a resilient "snap" and reinforced stability that maintains its shape over hundreds of trail miles.

The primary interface for both models. Naturally antimicrobial fibres neutralize odour at the source, while our high-density spec provides active thermoregulation for "socks-optional" comfort in any climate.

Strategic wool layering creates the anatomical cradle. In the ArchSupport, these layers provide structured stability; in the LowProfile, they are streamlined to ensure maximum breathability without the bulk.

A 100% plastic-free fuse. Natural latex bonds every layer into a single unit and provides a tacky, high-friction base.

Our sustainable alternative to petroleum-based plastic shells. This structural core provides the necessary torsional rigidity and longitudinal strength required for high-output mountain missions.

High-performance gear shouldn't outlast its welcome on the planet.

100% Biodegradable Foundations

Because we’ve eliminated petroleum-based plastics and toxic adhesives, an Esker insole is almost entirely biodegradable. At the end of its long life, the felted wool, woven linen, and natural latex can be composted, breaking down naturally into organic matter rather than shedding microplastics into the soil.

Renewable by Nature

Our materials are harvested, not manufactured from oil. Wool is shorn annually from sheep, flax for our linen is a low-water-intensity crop, and our latex is tapped from living rubber trees. The crops are carbon-sequestering materials that regenerate with every season.

Minimalist Footprint

By sourcing high-quality natural fibres and skipping the heavy industrial processing required for synthetics and plastics, we significantly reduce the energy intensity of our production. We build for performance and durability first, but we design for end-of-life second.
