Built around the player and the skate

Hockey orthotics need to account for both the player’s feet and the equipment they wear. Our approach combines an individual assessment with a skate-specific design.

01

Experience with competitive hockey

We work with competitive hockey players and local organizations, with attention to each player’s concerns, equipment, and demands on the ice.

02

Rigid carbon fibre construction

Our lab manufactures rigid carbon fibre orthotic devices specifically designed for hockey skates. The design is selected around the player’s assessed needs and the space available within the skate.

03

3D scanning inside your skate

We scan the interior of your skate so the lab can account for its shape when manufacturing your orthotics. This helps achieve a precise fit within your equipment.

See how support sits inside the skate

The illustration shows the concept of adding contoured support beneath the foot inside a hockey skate. Your assessment helps determine whether custom orthotics are appropriate and how the device should be designed for your feet and equipment.
