Lateral Reinforcement
Reinforcement of the lateral column to steady a supinating foot and add durability where lateral loads run high.
Supports the lateral column
Steadies a supinator
Large or small profile
How it works
Lateral reinforcement stiffens the outer column of the shell for feet that live on the lateral border. Cavus and supinated feet concentrate load along a narrow lateral strip; reinforcing it keeps the shell from deflecting and keeps your corrections effective.
It also buys durability where printed structures see the harshest repeated loads: high-mileage runners and heavier patients with lateral wear patterns.
When to prescribe it
- Cavus feet loading the lateral column
- Habitual supinators with lateral shell wear
- Peroneal tendinopathy needing consistent lateral support
- Lateral column overload syndromes
- Heavier or high-mileage patients
How we build it
Same principle as the medial version: the internal lattice is densified along the lateral column, in a large or small footprint, printed as one piece with the rest of the shell.
