Hockey Foot Pain: Blisters, Stress Fractures, and How Groov Insoles Help


Ice hockey players glide gracefully on the ice, but inside those skates, it’s a different story. Narrow boots, endless sprints, and sharp cuts create perfect conditions for blisters, numbness, and chronic foot pain.

Why Hockey Skates Hurt Feet: Rigid skate boots compress toes and arches, and constant vibration from the ice strains forefoot and heels. Goalies add crouching pressure on Achilles and arches.

Common Hockey Foot Injuries: Blisters and bunions from skate friction; Plantar fasciitis; Metatarsal stress fractures; Achilles tendonitis.

How Groov Insoles Help Hockey Players

Groov Insoles help hockey players by providing cushioning that offsets vibration from sudden stops, arch support that eases crouching and lateral pushes, and a slim fit that slides easily into skates.


Test Groov insoles in practice skates. If your post-game recovery feels more like “hot chocolate” and less like “ice bath,” you’ve scored.
