Sof SoleInsoles Men's AIRR Performance Full-Length Gel Shoe Insert

Quality insole that lasts. Good cushion and arch support. Have them in most of my shoes.

I've used these things in most shoes for more than a decade now. They don't work in every shoe. Originally I had some in a pair of Brooks running shoes, but they added more arch support so these feel horrible in the GTS XX I currently own. So I put them in my workboots, which instantly helped with calf & ankle pain from standing on concrete all day. Right now I have some in my slip on tennis shoes that I got for walking on a treadmill while working at my desk since my career changed. They're an old set, but still leagues better than the garbage that came in the shoe.They are a little thicker than insoles typically packed in with new shoes, so make sure you have a little breathing room or else they make an already tight fit too tight. And I don't like the gel hump in the heel out of the box: it's better once it's worn down a little because it's honestly too much at first. I didn't buy them for the cushioning necessarily: I mostly just need the arch support on flatter shoes. Because of that, these have always lasted me just as long as a good pair of shoes lasts me usually.So if you need better arch support and have a little bit of breathing room in your shoe already, try them. They'll likely help.

I've been trying to find a good insert for a couple weeks now. I've purchased a couple Dr Scholl's, a set of Copper Fit with adjustable arch support, and these Sof Soles. I have relatively highs arches but not high enough that I need the Plantar Fasciitis height. My experience with Dr Scholl's is the high arch support is too wide for the standard tennis/running shoe; they caused the shoes to bulge and the arch support wasn't exactly where I needed it because they're "one size fits all". The Copper Fit are "one size fits all" but better than the Dr Scholl's IMO because the arch support has relief cuts on the bottom of the inserts. The Sof Soles are on a different level because they a size specific and fit into my shoes without having to cut them. Because of this, the arch support is in the correct location. I only gave 4 stars because I've only had them for a short time, and because to get 5 stars from me, the product has to be exceptional. The inserts will be in my hiking boots for a week long trip to Zion National Park in October; if these inserts deserve more or less than 4 stars, I'll modify my review following the trip.

Put these in a pair of hiking boots and you will think you are wearing sneakers. I have tried many different types of insoles and these are superior. The last pair I bought are still in use from eight, that's 8, years ago. They are durable supportive and simply make my feet feel great.

Escribo desde Lima-Perú, compré las plantillas sof sole y llegó con 04 días de anticipación de la fecha prevista (según la web de amazon). LLegó en la talla comprada.

i've never had a foot odor issue until i purchased these inserts. no matter what i clean them with the old wet cat smell comes back. will have to try another brand!

First off, fit: after carefully studying the reviews I decided to get the 9-10.5 size for my size 9 shoe and they fit PERFECTLY, no cutting required. I would expect other sizes to scale accordingly, so if you're not at the bottom of the size range, get the next size up. These took up just a little more room in my running shoe than the factory liner, which was welcome for me because an 8.5 is a little too small on me and a 9 is a little too big on me. Now, function: My goal is to run 25 miles per week but shin splints and knee pain were keeping me down for days or weeks at a time. I have neutral arches. My shoes alone were not preventing me from overpronating, causing the knee pain, and the shin splints were being caused by a general lack of padding. I just finished my first 5k in 2 weeks and it appears that those issues have been solved, I'll know for sure after I get another 20 miles in but as it sits, I love them. The bubble in the heel may seem uncomfortable but it recesses into the sole and you don't even feel it, it does it's job very well adding great cushioning and spring right where you need it. I read one reviewer was so infuriated by the bubble that he cut it open to see what it was (it's foam, you can tell that without cutting it open) I can assure everyone that the foam bubble is supposed to sink into the sole, it is doing exactly what it's supposed to without being uncomfortable. If that reviewer had waited 15 minutes before slashing these awesome soles open with a razor blade he would have seen that they pop back out.

For me, it was very cushioning in my running shoes and give just the right amount of arch support. The arch support is mild but your mileage may vary. The good thing is it is returnable if it doesn't fit correctly.
