Superfeet, the global leader in performance insoles, today announced the launch of Court Playmaker Elite and Court Playmaker, bringing its athlete-specific approach to performance to basketball, volleyball and the gym floor. Following the introduction of its sport-specific Cleat and Sport collections announced earlier this year, Superfeet continues to evolve its product portfolio with an athlete-led approach to meet the rigorous physical demands of court athletes.

The Court Playmaker line of insoles targets the intense, repetitive impacts, rapid lateral cuts, and explosive vertical movements that define peak performance. By targeting the unique demands of hard-surface play, these insoles optimize the connection between feet and footwear. The result is performance equipment that helps athletes move more efficiently, reduce fatigue, and maintain high-level energy through both training sessions and competitive moments. The two models give athletes different performance profiles: Court Playmaker Elite includes the biomechanically engineered Carbitex® carbon-fiber plate for responsiveness and quickness, while Court Playmaker emphasizes resilient cushioning and stability. Every claim is grounded in extensive athlete feedback and product testing.

“Our goal is to empower high-performing athletes to reach their full potential. That commitment drives us to continually innovate, delivering premium performance insoles engineered to meet the evolving demands of athletes,” said Superfeet Vice President of Product and Innovation, Matt Gooch. “With Court Playmaker Elite and Court Playmaker, we’re bringing focus to the court with insoles fine tuned specifically for movement and performance.”

The Court Collection

Court Playmaker Elite – $94.99

Built for competitive athletes who demand maximum quickness, the Court Playmaker Elite integrates a full-length Carbitex® carbon fiber plate to deliver power and momentum.

  • Key Features:

    • Carbitex® Flexible Carbon Fiber Plate: Boosts quickness, agility, and energy transfer on hard courts.

    • SuperStrike™ Foam: Delivers energetic rebound from heel to toe.

    • SuperRev™ Heel Cushion: Softens hard landings and springs back fast for vertical jumps.

    • Silicone Grip Zones: Keeps feet locked in place to eliminate slippage inside the shoe.

    • Moisturewick™ Top Cover: Helps manage moisture and reduce odors.

  • Athlete-Tested:

    • While wearing Court Playmaker Elite, athletes saw an instant increase in quickness, measuring an average of +12 inches faster.

    • Testing demonstrated 89% of athletes reported both increased stability and enhanced grip inside their shoe.

“Court sports exemplify the dynamic nature of the human body, with quick transitions between sprinting, stopping, cutting and jumping,” said Carbitex Founder and President, Junus Khan. “Carbitex GearFlex complements that movement, remaining flexible at lower bend angles and becoming progressively stiffer as the plate bends to support push-off. The Court Playmaker Elite brings that dynamic response to athletes on court.”

Built to bounce back after hard landings, the Court Playmaker delivers long-lasting cushion and court-ready comfort so athletes can finish every game strong.

    • Flexible Heel Cradle: Delivers a secure and stable fit during lateral movements.

    • Sculpted Heel & Contoured Arch: Secures the foot and enhances overall foot biomechanics.

    • Moisturewick™ Top Cover: Helps manage moisture and reduce odors.

  • Athlete Tested:

    • In athlete testing, 88% reported improved comfort, while 75% reported increased stability and connectedness.

“Court Playmaker is a reflection of how we see the future of sports gear: products designed around the specific demands of athletes,” said Superfeet CEO Trip Randall. “By bringing our expertise in biomechanics and underfoot performance to basketball and volleyball, we’re continuing to redefine what an insole can do for performance.”

The Court Playmaker collection reflects Superfeet’s commitment to a more athletic driven design by engineering underfoot support specifically for the high-impact court environment. Court Playmaker Elite and Court Playmaker give athletes the ability to choose the level of cushioning, stability and responsiveness that aligns with their game, helping them make every movement count.

The Court Playmaker collection is now available at Superfeet.com and select retailers nationwide.
