Testimonials
“The cast have requested URSA Soft Soles from us as they feel safer in them. They can go outside wearing them. Especially when it's wet. Other tapes like 'Tessa Tape' absorb the water and become slippy. I use Heavy Duties on the heel and Soft Soles on the front. It's able to nullify any sounds we were getting from office shoes & high heels. They're brilliant!”
“They reduced the footstep noise by easily 70%. So we managed to get the dialog a lot cleaner. We use them on all sorts; big boots, high heels, trainers. They are easy to cut around to get the shapes you need, Costume were happy and so were the background artists. Very useful, very good product.”
“Amazing product. We are already on our second order of Soft Soles”
“We really like your Soft Soles. More are being ordered on consumables. Used the whole pack. Fully approved by my department.”
“Soft Soles pretty much saved our tap dancing scene from ADR. We were very impressed. They didn’t come off after rehearsing & numerous shots. We reused the same Heavy Duty pieces for scenes on another day with the same shoes! Way more durable than cork / Tessa. Thank you URSA!”
“They’re so good. We rigged Soft Soles & the Heavy Duties on our Steadycam ops shoes which were really noisy. The shot went from indoors to outdoors during this long take. We were worried about the rain but it was fine. At the end of each setup we checked on the tape & it was still there. It lasted all day!”
“These are perfect for reducing footsteps sounds on set. I used them on actors and supporting artists to minimise the overall noise on set during scenes with people moving around while actors are having a dialogue. I used to go for neoprene tape attached to footwear to reduce the footsteps sounds but it always fell off after a few minutes of walking and had to replace them every time. Not to mention that I had to cut the tape to fit different shoes every time, the Ursa Soft Soles come pre-cut in different sizes to fit most footwear making my job easier.”
“Really great piece of kit. I’ve been using the cheap stuff before I grabbed a set of these soles. So much better, love the grip on them too. Had a scene where the ground had gotten a bit slick. But was able to grip up the shoes and quiet them really quickly and effectively with these.”
