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

As someone who has high arches and a high instep, I was needing more support in my shoes than the insoles that come in my shoes could provide. I pronate when I walk, and as a result of high arch/high instep/ pronating, I had developed plantar fasciitis. My physical therapist had recommended these shoe inserts to give me additional support in my shoes. I have a couple of pairs, one set for my saucony shoes that I use for my daily walks, and one set for my dansko boots. They give my foot the support I need, and my first pair has lasted many years, so I personally feel the cost of these are worth it as they are high quality, made to last!

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.

I’ve been using Superfeet Green insoles for over 10 years. I buy this repeatedly every year. They provide excellent support for my low arches, and I no longer feel foot pain. These professional-grade inserts are durable and make a big difference. Highly recommended for anyone needing strong arch support!

Love these high arch supports that really jerk into shape the rather inexpensive Chinese sneakers I’ve been buying lately especially the “slip on “ type.

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’ve been using these inserts now for two years. They were recommended by my podiatrist. I was having pretty bad foot pain and stiffness, making it difficult to walk at times. My pain is due to really high arches. Even shoes with “arch support” aren’t enough. My podiatrist recommended to try these due to a lower price than having custom orthotics made ($300+). After using daily for a month, I noticed a major improvement. I haven’t had foot pain in almost 2 years now from using these. I have a set for 2 different pairs of shoes and I replace them every 6-8 months depending on use. They are super easy to trim. If this product ever goes away, I will be devastated. I should probably think about stocking up on them just in case!

I wanted to try out a different brand for the shoe inserts than what I’ve been using for many years. This product definitely provides a great arch support and is comfortable to be in for prolonged period of time. You can trim it however you want to fit to the shoes you wear.My only and the biggest complaint is that the bottom of the insert is slippery and tiny rubber pads it has does not keep the insert in place. It might not be an issue if you are putting it into sneakers, boots, or any fully closed shoes, but I needed it for my slip-on clogs. I never had this issue with other brands but with this, it slid around everywhere and would fall off the shoes when you walk around in it. I found myself constantly pausing and fixing my insert. It was way too annoying, after some months of occasional usages, I had to discard it as I just couldn’t use it.

This is my second pair of these. They are great in relieving my planter fasciitis. I always thought inserts should be soft but these are hard and it is amazing how good they feel. I had my first pair for 2 years and could tell they were not as comfy as they were, so moved them to my mowing shoes and put in the new ones in my daily shoes it was instant relief. If you are new to these gradually work into wearing them. It is worth it!
