Sock thickness and insoles together affect the space inside a shoe. In safety, protective or occupational footwear, an insole may only be used if it is approved for the exact shoe model or if the specific shoe-and-insole combination has been appropriately tested and documented.

Situation Selection What this means
Changing socks Check thickness and sock height on both feet with the approved footwear configuration unchanged Assess the fit without changing the insole at the same time.
Replacing the original insole Choose only an insole approved by the footwear manufacturer for the exact model, or a combination with documented testing A shape that happens to fit does not constitute approval.
Orthopaedic adjustment required Choose a solution tested in accordance with the applicable requirements for the specific shoe model, with professional fitting The protective footwear configuration remains verifiable.

The DGUV foot protection FAQ explains that insoles other than those offered by the footwear manufacturer are not permitted and that evidence may be required for combinations. The DGUV technical information FBPSA-007 requires orthopaedic insoles to have been successfully tested in combination with the safety shoe. Seek professional advice if you experience discomfort.
