I've tried a my fair share of insoles over the years, but these always come out on top. They may not be suitable for everyone, but these are the reasons I keep purchasing these: - Dry skin: I have very dry skin and, at its worst, my heels are cracked and painful. If you have dry skin that catches on certain materials, you know that feeling is like nails-on-a-chalkboard. I dread it. The foam material of these insoles has totally eliminated that issue. The fact that their focus isn't absorbency/dryness actually benefits me and helps repair my skin (without going too far in the other direction and making my feet feel sweaty or wet). - Easy to clean: Since I prefer to wear most of my shoes without socks, I appreciate an insole that I can clean. These are easy to wipe down with an antibacterial wipe and/or remove them and wash with a little soap and water in a bathroom sink. - Narrow feet: I have narrow heels and a wider toe box. For years, I wore shoes two sizes too small in order to get them to stay on my feet. Turns out that was a terrible idea and I've since realized that adding insoles helps achieve a more secure fit from my shoes. I appreciate the heels on these insoles because they're not too wide, which keeps my heel from sliding around in my shoe. If you have wide feet, consider getting their "insoles for men", as I believe those have a wider heel cup. - Padding/Comfort: I've been lucky enough to rarely have foot pain. The light padding/support these provide just adds additional comfort for me. I've walked up to 20 miles a day with these insoles and haven't had any issues. If anything, the smooth foam prevents friction that could lead to blisters. Read more

These seem to make my feet feel better. I say seem because it's not life-changing or anything, and I wonder whether there's a placebo effect happening because they're not a high profile arch (although I had insoles that were too high it feels like you're walking with half a tennis ball against your arch). I was told to get custom insoles, but I cannot afford them. Since I have had these in my sneakers, they are comfortable, but they do raise my foot up a bit, so I took out the factory insoles from my shoes, and the tops of my toes aren't feeling squished against the top of my sneakers anymore.

These are comfortable on my feet. I can no longer find them in the store. I'm glad to find them again on Amazon. Read more
I don’t have the worst feet, but I need some arch support. A doctor once had me by orthotics, but they were lost in a fire. I use these in shoes without removable insoles or over the insole that comes with the shoe. What I like about these is that they don’t add too much height to the heel. That’s a real problem for me. My heels are high and narrow. Most insoles lift my heel, so the shoe hits the wrong place. They make the shoes a little smaller, mainly at the heels, but mine are very narrow, so that works for me. They take up less room in my toes, where my foot is wide. I tried on a pair of shoes on “last call” at a store and forgot these were even in my shoes. I think they have been there for a year or So. It was good because the shoes had no arch support, and I needed to test them with insoles. The new shoes were much better than without an insole, even though they were a year old. Still, I decided to replace my old ones, too, as they were a little flat, and I realized they were in there. My current trainers have insoles, but the heel was loose, so I put these in over them. I think these work with more types of footwear than many insoles for women’s shows. They looked perfect in the shoe after a year, although they were a bit flat towards the toe. These are more functional than most because they work in different kinds of shoes and provide some arch support. I don’t have a problem with the ball of my foot, so I can’t comment on that. They are very reasonably priced. Read more
I have some gel inserts from this company which I really like. These are ok, but do not give as much cushioning or comfort as the others. Read more
I've worn these for years and love them! I have them in every pair if shoes and boots I own. I have a poorly healed break injury on one foot, and PF and a heel spur on the other foot. Over the years I've tried countless kinds of insoles, including custom orthotics, and these are absolutely the best. They mold to your arch and foot, and provide support where its needed. They do flatten and break down and eventually need to be replaced, but are affordable, so I just keep a couple of spares and replace as needed. Read more
I have been using these insoles for over 7 years. The top material was a bit softer and not as thick. The older version would mold to your forefoot. This new version from the past year is hard, top material not smooth if you like to go barefoot and doesn’t mold at all. Very thick and crowds the toe area. I’m a 110 pound woman and the insoles so stiff they won’t mold. Please rethink the depth of the forefoot cushion and softness to accommodate women. Thinner forefoot would work for most woman as we tend to wear thinner low profile shoes and go sock-less. You took a great product and made it non-functional for woman to wear in loafers, dress shoes and lost mold-ability. Read more
