Darco PegAssist Insole System

The insole features a grid of removable hexagonal pegs. You can manually remove specific pegs corresponding to the exact location of your wound or ulcer, which creates a 'void' that eliminates direct pressure on that area while you walk.

No, this system is specifically engineered for square-toe medical shoes, such as the Darco MedSurg line. It is not designed to fit into standard athletic or casual footwear due to its specific shape and 18 mm thickness.

Once you remove pegs to offload a wound, the support board acts as a stabilizer. It ensures the remaining insole maintains its structural integrity and doesn't collapse or deform under your weight during daily use.

Yes, the system uses a combination of Plastazote and Multi-Foam for the base, topped with a 3 mm PORON cushioning cover. This material blend is chosen specifically for its high-performance shock absorption and ability to mold to the foot, which helps reduce friction and pressure.

The PegAssist system is designed to be size-specific to match the corresponding medical shoe. While minor adjustments might be possible, you should select the size that most closely matches your medical shoe size to ensure the peg grid aligns correctly with your foot.
