Pedag Viva Sport 181 is a vegan, medium-arch sports insole designed for running, walking, the gym, hiking, and everyday trainers.

FAQ
Q: Is the arch support firm or soft?
A: Viva Sport 181 is a medium-arch semi-orthotic insole — supportive yet cushioned. It suits most runners and walkers with neutral to medium arches; if you require a very high, rigid arch, consider Pedag's higher-support models instead.
Q: Will it fit my trainers without making them tight?
A: The insole is slim and full-length. Reviewers report it fits running shoes and trainers (including New Balance) comfortably. Check the size chart before ordering — some customers find it runs slightly short or narrow, so confirm your shoe size first.
Q: Is it suitable for plantar fasciitis or flat feet?
A: Pedag positions Viva Sport as supportive against joint pain, plantar fasciitis, splayfoot, and back complaints, and many buyers purchase it on a podiatrist's recommendation. It is a comfort and support insole, not a medical treatment — consult a podiatrist for diagnosed conditions.
Q: How do I clean it?
A: Hand wash and air dry. The quick-drying functional fibres refresh easily, keeping your footbeds ready for your next session.
Q: Is it genuinely vegan?
A: Yes — Viva Sport 181 uses vegan cushioning materials and functional fibres, with no animal-based components.
