Superfeet All-Purpose Support High Arch Insoles (Green) - Trim-To-Fit Orthotic Shoe Inserts - Professional Grade - Men 9.5-11 / Women 10.5-12

I am a Physical Therapist and have used this product for over the past decade. I really love the support, wearability and the green superset is great for high arches or low arches as the heel cup is deep to keep the heel bone (calcaneus bone) in correct position to support a better gait pattern. I have low arches/flat feet and works great for me and my husband has high arches and it works great for him as well.

I have been wearing Superfeet Green insoles now for nearly a decade. I have tried other brands, and even other models of Superfeet insoles (blue, berry, copper, and orange), but none of them have worked as well. At least in my experience, the build and quality of these insoles have remained the same every time I have replaced them.I tried these for the first time about 10 years ago when I developed a serious case of plantar fasciitis. It was bad. My job at the time required a lot of walking and my feet just couldn't handle it. Someone recommended that I try Superfeet, and at first I had no idea which of the insoles they make would be best for me. I have very low arches that are borderline flat, so naturally I first tried insoles for my actual foot type. They were ok but didn't really make a difference with my pain. So I decided to try the Green even though it was advertised for high arches. THAT is when I discovered my soul mate was a shoe insole.Everyone is different but let me tell you what to more or less expect if you've never used these before. These are not your typical cushiony, pillowy insoles that make you feel like you're walking on air. These are solid, and the foam is very dense and firm. I can see why this may put some people off; after all, at first feel they seem like they'll only make foot pain WORSE, not better. And truth be told, they DO hurt if you're not used to them. Seems counterintuitive, right?It's important to be aware that this initial discomfort is NORMAL and very common amongst first time users. In the beginning you may feel frustrated for having spent this much on insoles that seem to make the pain worse. But trust me, you NEED to give them time to break in. Your feet are likely not accustomed to this level of support, and yet that's exactly what those feet need. Especially if you have flat feet or low arches. These insoles force your feet into a more arched position which at first feels completely unnatural. But flat and low arches can bring on issues like knee and hip pain from taking on more weight that is more evenly distributed by those with normal arches.So yes, they are uncomfortable at first. You need to ease into them at your own pace. Wear them for an hour a day, then two hours, and so forth, and eventually the pain will not only go away, but you'll be amazed at what a huge difference they make. I use them in my everyday walking shoes as well as my running and trail shoes. No matter what the activity is, these insoles allow me to do it pain free.There are a few things to be aware of though that can't really be changed. Because they are so firm and don't really have any "give" when weight is applied, it COULD potentially change the way your shoe fits. These fit nicely into my medium width shoes as well as my wide fit shoes, but the fit is snug. It also will raise your heel somewhat. I've never found them to raise it so high that the shoe is unwearable though, and my feet still feel secure in the shoe. In fact, this slight heel raise has actually helped me wear shoes I couldn't before because of heel rubbing. These lift my heels just enough so that I no longer have that issue.The one thing I don't like is that these insoles can potentially change the performance of the shoe. For example, I have a great pair of running shoes that have a "springy" heel which feels really great when I do speed runs. But the springy-ness is noticeably dulled when using these insoles. Superfeet make a different insole that is specifically designed for runners, but nothing has been as good as the Green for pain relief and support. And ultimately that's more important to me.Hopefully this information helps you in your insole search quest. Remember, have patience, break them in and don't give up on them the first day. Your aching feet will thank you later and you'll wonder how you survived all this time without them.

There's a lot of types of insoles out there these days but 20ish years ago there weren't many to choose from. I read about these giving more stability when hiking so I tried them out and learned to love them after that initial acclimation period which took a few hours. I noticed my feet felt better after a long day hike and really felt the difference when I put on shoes without the insole. With these green Superfeet, you remove the removable cheaper ones that come with your shoes. They, seemingly, last forever as I'm still using my first pair(s). My son works standing up for hours with his job and was complaining about foot pain for a couple week so I suggested that he try the Superfeet. After a couple days of wearing them on the job his feet got better and seems to be completely rid of the pain after about two weeks as he hasn't mentioned anything since. I wanted my pair back so I bought him a couple to go in different shoes.

I’m sure these are great for most feet. However, I have wide feet with a high arch and narrow heel. I need something more substantial and stability.

As someone who has been struggling with plantar fasciitis, I’ve tried numerous solutions, but the Superfeet All-Purpose Support High Arch Insoles have truly made a difference. These insoles are specifically designed for comfort and support, and they’ve exceeded my expectations.First and foremost, the arch support is fantastic. The high arch design provides the stability my feet desperately need, alleviating the pressure that often triggers my plantar fasciitis pain. I’ve noticed a significant reduction in discomfort during my daily activities, whether I’m walking, standing, or exercising.The trim-to-fit feature is also a huge plus. They fit perfectly in my favorite shoes, and I love that I can customize them to my specific footwear. The professional-grade quality gives me confidence that they will last, even with daily use.Beyond just support, the cushioning is excellent. It strikes the perfect balance between firmness and comfort, making each step feel more comfortable without sacrificing stability. I’ve even noticed I can walk longer distances without the nagging pain I used to experience.Overall, if you’re dealing with plantar fasciitis, I highly recommend the Superfeet All-Purpose Support High Arch Insoles. They might be a bit of an investment, but the relief they provide is absolutely worth it. My feet feel happier, and I can enjoy my daily activities again without constant pain. These insoles have been a true lifesaver for me!

This was recommended by my podiatrist for plantar fasciitis to help heal the plantar fascia muscle and provide relief from heel pain. If you're seeking plantar fasciitis relief, this is a valuable addition to your therapy routine. It was a lifesaver when used with supportive shoes. Great quality for the price.

Extremely firm insoles. Do not use these of you want to soften your shoes. These made my boots stiffer and more uncomfortable than they were out of the box. My feet, legs, and body overall hurt after the day of working in these on concrete floors. I specifically bought these because the green ones were recommended on Reddit for working on concrete floors.I've now opted for much softer insoles. I understand some people may have great support needs, but I don't think these are for everyone.
