Comfort and Support

Pros:

  • "Extremely comfortable and helpful for Plantar fasciitis."
  • "They add bounce to your step, and make a long day on your feet very manageable."
  • "Use them in my golf shoes for walking 18, they beat the stock inserts by a mile."
  • "I've been using these for years and I finally got my husband to try them. He loves them! Supportive and holds their shape."
  • "These insoles are amazing. They relieve pain and offer support."
  • "These Spenco arch support insoles are fantastic. They make my back and legs feel better."
  • "They feel like you've got pillows in your shoes!"

Cons:

  • "I was really disappointed in these insoles based on generally high customer reviews... Not supportive at all."
  • "The arch support doesn’t align with my foot. It is too close to the heel and it becomes very uncomfortable over the course of the day."
  • "The right insole feels like the arch support is too far towards the back of the insole. So instead of being in my arch it is behind it and feels like a rock in my shoe."
  • "The arch support on the insole is very close to the heel, and makes the insole very uncomfortable for me."
  • "These insoles do not work. They do not provide comfort or support. The arch is in the wrong place and hurts your feet."
  • "The built-in 'arch support' simply collapses when you step down."
  • "The rise of the arch starts close to my heel, and feels like i am walking on lumps."

Durability and Quality

Pros:

  • "I've been using these for years in various models. The material is good quality and lasts."
  • "They offer great support and cushioning that last better than the run of the mill store brands."
  • "These were priced much better than they are at the shoe stores."
  • "Very high quality for the price."
  • "Well made, very long lasting."
  • "They last as long as the originals too."
  • "seems to be the quality you would expect from this company."

Cons:

  • "They seem to provide good support but don't last long. The green lining on top comes off after a short period of time."
  • "I have been buying these inserts for years, yet over the past couple of years I’ve noticed they keep getting thinner and thinner and wear out quickly."
  • "I have ordered these insoles 4 different times. Usually they last around a year. This time they lasted less than 2 months."
  • "They didn't even last 1 month not good quality."
  • "I was still surprised at how quickly the material wore through and fell apart after a couple days."
  • "The green top layer that is suppose to allow your foot to slide into the shoe came off and it is terribly hard to keep the insole in place without it bunching up now."
  • "These really helped my son with recovering from a heel fracture."

Fit and Sizing

Pros:

  • "I wear size 15 and do not cut these or modify these in anyway when they arrive. Just put inside the shoes."
  • "This product was excellent for inside of Vessi sneakers. This solved a lot of back and foot pain. I have high arches and it worked exactly as planned without cutting for a size 9 women’s shoe."
  • "They fit true to size. They also wash well if you place them in a mesh lingerie bag before throwing them in the wash."
  • "Correctly sized."
  • "Easy to trim for an exact fit."
  • "For two of the shoes (New Balance 993, which are excellent and made in America, by the way) these worked perfectly and fit with no trimming."
  • "They feel really natural in my shoes and seem pretty durable to boot."

Cons:

  • "Adding an insert just made them tighter."
  • "These insoles were too large for my 10.5 mens New Balance athletic shoes."
  • "Great cushion, but it raises your foot quite a bit in the shoe, takes a while to get used to it."
  • "The size was off so I had to trim, I wear a 9 and ordered the 9 to 10."
  • "They are so bendy that I couldn't get them into my son's shoes, even after cutting down."
  • "I have a pair of Babolat Tennis shoes (size 12.5 US Men) and I ordered the 12-13.5 range insoles. These do not fit in the shoe."
  • "Somehow I ordered a Woman's size 5-6.5 (I'm usually very careful about this sort of thing, so not sure how that slipped by)."
