A. Yes.  They are made of ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA), a non-toxic foam used for mid-soling in athletic shoes.  Compression rate correlates with weight, activity level and torque pressures.

Q. Are they adjustable?

A. Yes. All Boston Pedorthic orthotics are fully adjustable across all planes of motion.
