Move All Day Insole
Insole material itself lower concern; no PFAS disclosure found.
Move All Day Insole uses foam cushioning and textiles typical of athletic insoles, materials not inherently associated with PFAS. Reebok provides no public PFAS statement for this product.

No PFAS disclosure
No public statement about PFAS in this product.
The full breakdown
What it's made of and why it matters
The Move All Day Insole uses foam cushioning (likely EVA or polyurethane) paired with textile upper layers. Foam materials are generally stable in normal wear conditions, but degradation over time can release microparticles and volatile compounds. The textile components may contain finishes or dyes applied during manufacturing; without Reebok's material disclosure, the specific chemistry remains unclear. Insoles have prolonged contact with skin and are worn in warm, moist foot environments, which can accelerate any leaching of finish residues.
The brand's record and disclosure
Reebok has not published detailed material safety disclosures or PFAS commitments for this specific insole product. The brand maintains general sustainability initiatives but does not offer transparency on chemical treatments in cushioning or textiles at the product level. No public recalls or safety controversies are on record for this model. Third-party certifications (bluesign, OEKO-TEX) are absent from available product information.
How it compares in its category
Insoles vary widely in transparency and safety standards. Some competitors (e.g., Superfeet, Powerstep) publish material specs and certifications; others match Reebok's silent approach. Foam-based insoles are common and generally safe when uncontaminated, but the lack of independent testing or brand disclosure for this product puts it in the middle of the category rather than at the high-transparency end. Brands with explicit PFAS or OEKO-TEX certification offer higher assurance.
If you buy it
Replace insoles every 6 to 12 months depending on wear and odor accumulation; this limits long-term exposure to any degraded foam or finish residues. Keep feet dry and allow insoles to air-dry after sweaty activity to minimize moisture-driven leaching. Avoid exposing insoles to direct high heat (e.g., direct sunlight in a car) as elevated temperatures can accelerate foam degradation. If skin irritation develops on the sole of the foot, discontinue use and switch to a certified alternative.
Beyond PFAS: other things we checked
Established hazard classes for this product type, assessed from public information. These never change the PFAS grade; a Likely flag caps the Verdict at “Buy with care.”
Formaldehyde resins in textile finishes
Textile upper layers may contain formaldehyde-based finishing agents used for wrinkle resistance or water repellency; Reebok has not disclosed treatment chemistry. Prolonged foot contact in warm conditions could promote low-level off-gassing.
Azo dyes in colored textile components
Colored textile uppers may use azo dyes, some of which break down to carcinogenic amines under sweat and heat. No third-party dye safety certification (e.g., OEKO-TEX Standard 100) is publicly listed.
Foam degradation and microparticle release
EVA and polyurethane foams degrade over time, especially with moisture and flexing; microscopic particles can shed into skin. Regular replacement mitigates this risk but long-term use of unrated foam carries unknown particle exposure.
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from foam cushioning
Foam manufacturing residues or off-gassing from uncertified polyurethane or EVA can release low levels of VOCs. No off-gassing testing or low-VOC certification is documented for this insole.
Heavy metals in synthetic dyes
No recalls or reports of metal contamination in Reebok insoles; however, synthetic dyes can contain trace lead or cadmium if unregulated. Standard regulatory oversight in footwear reduces this risk but third-party verification is absent.
What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 60% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
