PROVEN IN-BOOT TECHNOLOGY EVOLVES INTO A VERSATILE PERFORMANCE SOLUTION

STONEY CREEK, ON, Sept. 9, 2026 /CNW/ -- Baffin, a recognized leader in technical footwear and apparel, introduces B-TEK™ THERMAL INSOLE, engineered to withstand diverse climates and maximize performance. Building on technologies proven in Baffin footwear, this launch marks an expansion into the aftermarket insole category with a solution designed to provide comfort, warmth, and security through all seasonal adventures.

Inspired by Baffin's history of creating innovative and enduring boots proven through Real-World Tested™ experiences in the coldest moments on Earth, B-TEK™ THERMAL INSOLE takes cold protection one step further. First ideated and developed during the creation of Baffin's Hero Collection and currently utilized in ICE HERO II and ICE CREW, this accessory brings Baffin's in-boot insulation technology to a standalone insole.

Designed with the understanding that every component of footwear plays a critical role, B-TEK™ THERMAL INSOLE has been built to function as part of a cohesive system that supports the movement and engagement of the foot during activity. Offering versatile cold protection for both industrial and outdoor applications, the insole is compatible with Baffin footwear as well as other boot styles and can be used as a replacement footbed or added to existing footwear for an extra layer of insulation and foot relief.

"The launch of B-TEK™ THERMAL INSOLE represents an exciting evolution of our product offerings," says Jessica Liut, Vice President of Marketing at Baffin. "We believe that every component of our footwear is equally important, and our approach to insole technology is no different. B-TEK™ THERMAL INSOLE was developed with the same attention to performance and functionality that defines our footwear, allowing us to bring Baffin's cold-weather expertise to an entirely new category."

Constructed with a form-fitting design that supports natural movement and maximizes comfort, B-TEK™ THERMAL INSOLE features a soft felt top layer that provides lightweight insulation and a plush feel underfoot. A waffle-comb layer works to trap warm air and enhance heat retention, while an integrated aluminum layer reflects body heat and helps block out the cold.

Available in unisex sizing that aligns with a women's size 6-11 and men's size 7-15, B-TEK™ THERMAL INSOLE can now be purchased internationally on Baffin.com and at retailers across North America for $30 CAD/$30 USD.
