Choosing Spenco Sheet
Thickness & Colour

When selecting the right Spenco sheets for insoles, orthotics, or footwear modifications, thickness and colour matter. Each option is designed for different applications, so here’s a quick guide to help you choose.

​

Thickness Options

2mm Spenco Sheets

• Available in Black only

• Best for light cushioning, top covers, or layering

• Ideal for adding extra comfort without bulk

4mm Spenco Sheets

• Available in Blue, Black, and Green

• Provides greater support and durability

• Perfect for custom insoles, orthotics, and shoe modifications

👉 Tip: Many professionals combine different thicknesses for custom builds, adding thin layers for comfort and thicker sheets for structure.

​

Colour Options

• Black: Versatile and professional, suitable for both 2mm and 4mm applications

• Blue: Popular for sports and athletic use, often chosen for its clean, bright look

• Green: A professional orthotic material colour, trusted in medical and podiatry settings

Colours don’t just look different — they also help practitioners quickly identify sheet type and use.

​

Size Options

Spenco material sheets are available in three convenient sizes:
• Full sheet – 42" x 48"
• Half sheet – 42" x 24"
• Quarter sheet – 21" x 24"

These sizes make it easy to order exactly what you need for your application.

​

Which Should You Choose?

• Use 2mm Black when you need a slim cushioning layer.

• Use 4mm Blue, Black, or Green for full insoles, orthotics, or footwear modifications.

• Choose colour based on preference or professional setting — the performance is the same across colours.
