OrthoLite®, the industry leader of branded, high-performance, and comfort footwear solutions, expands its range of eco formulations with the release of OrthoLite® HybridPlus-Bio™ and HybridPlus-Recycled™ insole technologies. With formulations that elevate the total eco content of the insoles to 57-percent and 50-percent, respectively, these two new innovative technologies set a new standard for sustainable insoles.

To hear Glenn Barrett tell it, he was just one fork in the road away from being a ski bum (a term of affection here at OrthoLite). Had he kept driving north, in 1979, to the mountains of Vermont instead of taking a job in central Massachusetts, the footwear industry would look a lot different today.

OrthoLite introduced our first insole in 1997 with the ethos of always doing better. We knew we were creating a higher performing and more comfortable product than the competition. By incorporating recycled rubber, we also were demonstrating that premium insoles could be produced more sustainably.

OrthoLite creates world's first and only aerogel-infused open cell pu-foam, O-Therm™ — an innovative new thermal insole technology that sets a new standard in cold-weather footwear protection.
