Best flips ever!

Best flips ever! I have been wearing these flips for several years and could not imagine living without them. They have changed my life. I suffer from chronic plantar fasciitis and fibromyalgia. They really help to relieve pain in my feet and allow me too actually go for a walk! I wear them all day, every day. They are resistant and I love the fact that they are so eco friendly. I highly recommend them.

My go-to sandals

These are the best sandals I've ever owned. I have problems with plantar fasciitis and hip pain. But with these sandals, I can walk all day pain-free. Will be buying another pair next summer!

Less morning pain and all day comfort

The Most Comfortable Flips

These are hands down the most comfortable and supportive flips I have ever had. I discovered them when I had plantar fasciitis. They really helped relieve the pain. I would even wear them in the shower for support. The metatarsal support in the front is amazing as well. They are great all around flip flops. This is my second pair, the first pair lasted for many years. I went 1/2 size up from my tennis shoe size and they fit great.

Got me running again

I developed a nasty case of Plantar Fasciitis. I was hobbling around until a friend recommended SOLE insoles to me. I found a store nearby and was walking pain free in a few days and running in a couple of weeks. I have a pair for every shoe. I tried Custom made insoles and they were clumsy and painful. SOLE insoles felt natural and got me running again.

Works Great

I use it in both shoes and sneakers. No more pain!

Great insoles

My daughter has weak ankles issues and she was really struggling before, until she got a pair of SOLE insoles, her legs are straight and she doesn’t feel any pain or discomfort walking.

Insoles are fantastic

We were recommended these insoles by my son’s physical therapist. My son was recovery from a fractured spine but the physical therapist noticed my son had flat feet. My son has always complained his feet hurt after playing sports. We even saw the pediatrician for it and was not given any answers. He has been using these insoles for 3 months now and has not complained about foot pain once. These will be our go to from now on.

Finally some pain relief

I wasn’t sure about these footbeds in the beginning but continued to wear them until they formed to my feet. Much less pain in my feet now. Would definitely order again for my other shoes.

Perfect dog walking insoles

I wear these in my dog walking boots and now never had foot pain on long, damp dog walks. I could walk further than my young dog with these in my boots. Excellent support and great from day one.

No brainer for wide toe bed shoes

I can’t imagine wearing shoes without these footbeds. They fit all of my wide toed shoes perfectly and now I have a pair in all of them. I no longer give a second thought to “what shoes will I wear today” as all of my shoes are ultra comfortable and I remain pain free!

OK but no improvement for me

I bought these because someone I know had experienced relief from foot issues and I thought I'd give them a try. I have Morton's neuroma in my left foot. I have tried 3 different custom orthotics providers and none of the custom orthotics have had any impact on my Morton's neuroma. After a month of use, I can say that the Sole with Met Pad also has no impact. I can walk for about 45 minutes after which the pain is too intense and I must rest and manipulate my foot bones. However, the Sole with Met Pad has good arch support and is much cheaper than the custom orthotics, so for arch support it is fine. Overall, if you have MN and have had no relief from custom orthotics, I would not expect the Sole product to give you any relief either.

These foot beds saved my feet

They really helped me walk pain free.

Finally relief from plantar fasciitis

After struggling with plantar fasciitis for over a year, doing PT, trying different shoes and injections nothing worked. I read the reviews of Sole and gave them a try. In just a few days I noticed a huge relief from the burning pain in my feet of getting out of bed, I could walk for longer distances without pain in my arch, heel and calf. I highly recommend these insoles. Happy to have my active life back pain free.

Such a difference

I bought these for my fiance because her feet are perpetually pointing inwards and it causes her a lot of pain if she has to walk a lot. After putting these in her sneakers she says she's noticed a HUGE difference! It has really helped make her more comfortable.

The only footbeds that work

No pain and perfect fit

They work great!

I've been wearing these for about a month and I have less foot pain and overall very comfortable. I got a size up since I'm a 6.5 W.

Pain relief

Helped with foot pain

Old boots like new

I walk out my insoles faster than I wear out the rest of my shoe. So putting these in make my shoes like new and I have way less leg pain. Highly recommend

Best insole for me

This insole fit my shoe perfectly and it is very comfortable and solve my flat feet and the met pad is effective in reducing the pain at my metatarsal.

These are amazing

I have been using these foot beds since January 2023. I was having pain in my feet due to plantar fasciitis and looking for an insole that would help. These foot beds fixed my plantar fasciitis. I have no more pain in my feet and I spend most my day on my feet. I will always have these foot beds in all my footware.

Happy feet

It reduces my foot pain in the forefoot.

My feet have never felt better

Ordered my first pair at the suggestion of a friend who is an orthopedic surgeon. He noticed my foot pronating as I walked in my sneakers. Loved the first pain so much, I bought a second to leave in my golf shoes.

Life-changing relief

I had been dealing with metatarsalgia for 4 months following various suggestions form the podiatrist before giving these a shot, and I can say they've made a huge difference. The high-volume cushioning offered the perfect amount of arch support and reduced pressure on the ball of my foot without altering the fit of my shoe. These fit my hiking shoes perfectly. What stood out is that I noticed a real improvement in comfort within the first day of use. These have now become my go-to for all my shoes and I have purchased a set of Active thins for my dress shoes. If you're struggling with metatarsal pain or just need more support, these are absolutely worth trying.

So, I Gave These to a Friend

Love the insoles, so I gifted a pair to a friend who had horrendous pronation. He carries a huge backpack everywhere we travel, and you can see his shoes collapsing inward. But he never complains, so it's hard to know if he's in pain or a lot of pain. I gifted him this pair to try out, and not only did his stride look a lot better, but he also told me how much more comfortable his shoes felt after a couple of days. I'll take that win!

Best footbeds ever!, I wear in all my shoes.

I love these insoles no more feet, knee or hip pain, I tell everyone that I meet , that is having foot problems about these insoles , my wife tells me I should be a paid spokesman 😂😂

Perfect for Boots. But High Arches Need Something Else

As you know, most boots come with little to no arch support. I threw these into my boots and pain slowly got better over a few weeks. My boots are more comfortable now. June 2025 Update: I've found I need a product with higher arch support than what Sole pads provide. I will continue to use these in snow boots that I use infrequently.

Helped Remove Some Pain - But Very High Arches Need Something Different

Early May 2025: I've been wearing these pads for about 6 weeks. The pain from, what i think is, plantar fascitis has almost disappeared. These things are fantastic and I think they will hold up well. Update June 2025: 2 1/2 months wearing these and my pain resurfaced. Not as bad as before I started using these pads, but enough that I need to find a new alternative. Turns out that I have high arches where higher support is needed than what these pads provide. I purchased a pad from a competitor specifically for very high arches and I am much more comfortable. I will continue to use these in shoes I wear infrequently, such as mud or snow boots, but shoes for frequent use will use a different product. So...if you have very high arches, you may want to consider something else.

Seriously Helpful

I’ve had foot and ankle pain for the last 2-3 years, and wearing Sol has definitely helped. I’m on my feet nearly all day for work and I noticed a difference quite quickly.

A foot saver

I have high arches and struggled with plantar fasciitis for years. I got these and within weeks the pain is gone! Love it.

Works well for dress shoes

Great over the counter pain relief. Works in dress shoes just make sure they have a removable insole.

Best footbeds ever!

I have plantar fascitis and was recommended to these footbeds by a D1 college track trainer. Best things I have bought for my feet. My pain is almost non-existent at this point and I think I have 6 or7 pairs of these insoles already for all of my shoes. Highly recommend!

I'm impressed!

My foot specialist/surgeon recommended the Metatarsol Insole because my right foot pronates and causes a lot of pain. The insole has given the foot more support and stability. I really like the fact you warm them in the oven and then stand in them to "mold" to your own foot. Believe me, I have tried a lot of different insoles and these are the best.

My favorite foot beds

Sole solved my neuroma pain. Don't leave home with out a pair

Reduced My Metatarsal Pain

I have had foot pain for many years and I still am recovering from metatarsal pain. I started wearing these in my Hoka's to provide even more arch support and to help with metatarsal pain. These footbeds definitely help reduce the pain.

Well done.

These provide relief and support for the ball of foot pain I experience. Cork is supportive, not to soft and form fitting.

No More Plantar Pain!

I've been using Sole orthotic inserts for several years now, starting when I had a bad bout of plantar fascitis. The inserts are so good that I was able to play tennis the same day I got them. In fact, my podiatrist asked me where I got them and said they were better than any custom orthotic he could prescribe. I have a pair for every shoe I own. This particular model is fantastic for hiking boots and allows me to hike without any plantar pain at all.

My feet feel so much better

I was having heel pain and these footbeds really helped alleviate that pain. They also provide more comfort all over my feet. Very comfortable.

Durable & Comfortable

I have very flat feet, and experience some pain in my arches. Using these insoles has provided me with much more comfort in my long daily walks.

Active Medium Met Pat

What a great product was referred by a friend put the sole in my shoes so comfortable my feet feel much better and the pain is almost gone. Will be certainly buying another pair.

Best inserts I have tried and purchased.

My podiatrist recommended I get inserts to help and prevent tendinitis pain. Tried a couple different brands and Sole for me is best. All day comfort for my feet!

Great product

They really reduced my foot pain. I love them! Such a great product

Best insole ever!

After having these insoles in my shoes, my foot pain had been reduced significantly. Now I have those in my every shoe. Definitely recommend it.

works well in dress shoes that have removable insole.

It got to the point that just looking at a nice dress shoe brought tears just thinking about how painful they would be. I am now able to buy decent dress shoes as long as they have a removable insole you are golden.

Dramatic change for the better

So happy to report that my back, knees and hips are much happier since purchasing these orthotics. One pair for walking and another for playing tennis. I bought them to alleviate back pain but find that my knees and hips are also benefiting.

Excellent

I got a pair on a after a referral from a friend. It took a few walks, some tenderness at first, but now my pain i was getting on my right leg is gone. Excellent company.

Good alternative to custom-made orthotics

I have a forefoot neuroma that I have worn orthotics for in the past. They started acting up, so I decided to try the Sole with Met Pads. I have used the regular Sole inserts for hiking in the past, and they so I knew they were comfortable and solid build. So far for the past few weeks, the new ones have been fantastic. The neuroma pain has been subsiding. Definitely would recommend as a first line treatment to try before dropping hundreds of dollars on custom made orthotics.

Finally, Comfort!

I've been wearing the Active Met Pad for a few weeks and, from the first few days, I noticed that the pain in my left foot was gone. Due to an accident, my left leg is slightly shorter than my right which causes my left foot to not properly stretch the sole muscles when I walk. The pressure from the Met Pad stretches the muscle and relieves the pain. Also, there is a residual effect so that, after walking on the Met Pad for a few days, walking without it is still comfortable for a day or two. I also am glad that I can swap the Sole between shoes so I don't suffer just for style. I'll be buying the Thin Active Met Pad next so I can wear some of my tighter shoes comfortably.

Thi footbeds

Love the sole products.helps with pain reasonably priced. Sometimes even great sales..... I love these thin soles for my dress shoes. Fits well

Footbeds

Comfortable helps with knee and hip pain love these products

Love this footwear.

Easy to install in shoes. Makes walking comfortable and no more knee pain

Solved my problem

I have used Dr. S's pads for years. My Doctor told me to invest in a better product. To my pleasant surprise these pads have eliminated the painful aching in my feet. I will order a second set soon. Thank you.

Great arches

These were recommended by my Dr. they took a few wears to get used to. But now I don’t even notice them. My pain improved tremendously. Highly recommend!

Very happy with my Sole product.

Able to get back to my daily walks with no pain.

Best footbeds!

These are the gold standard for pain free living! My feet feel so much better and no other foot bed works like these!

Best footbeds ever

Was struggling to run without pain and instantly brought me back to enjoying my runs pain free.

Great arch supports

I’ve worn these arch supports for years. They are extremely comfortable and allow me to run without pain.

Work great!

Walk five miles a day and they have provided me with no more foot pain!

life changing

very comfortable and erased lower back pain in two weeks!

Life Saver

At age 67 with a retail career that is physically demanding and lifestyle that enjoys working out and a good 5 mile jog. My bottom line is I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE A SUCCESSFUL DAY WITHOUT YOUR AMAZING LIFE CHANGING SOLES! My first purchase was 2018? With a coupon from a vendor. I was so broken thought I had chipped a bone or cracked my hip! Sad shape limping around for weeks. When I say life saving 🌟🌟🌟 that’s exactly what you gave me! Thank You! I’ve been pain free without issue since that first purchase and I still have my first pair of insoles!! THANK YOU!!

Great Insoles

These insoles have really helped my foot pain. Highly recommend them.

BEST orthotics!

I've switched to these metatarsal support footbeds and have noticed a huge difference in my forefoot pain. The thick soles are ideal in my running shoes and hiking boots. The middle thickness soles are great in tennis shoes and lighter weight boots. The thinnest footbeds are perfect for flats and loafers. I love having the option of different thicknesses!

Great insoles

I have these insoles in my blundstones and they work great! This has really helped my foot pain!

Had the worst plantar fasciitis. Not anymore.

Was walking lots of kms in safety toe work boots and the pain in my feet was awful. A co worker recommended these and they worked so well in my work boots I ordered another pair for all my sneakers at home.

Morton Neuroma

Got a Morton Neuroma, and this insole help me a lot with the treatment of my injury. I can walk a lot with them without any pain. I would buy an another pair more thin for my running shoes.

Love the Met Pad!

Just having been diagnosed with metatarsalgia, I bought the Active Thin with Met Pad. My foot pain is relatively gone now!

Best footbeds

I have been wearing these footbeds for 20 years and have recommended them to many friends that are having foot and heel pain, and they have really helped. My son wore them for 10 years while he was playing baseball and now my grandson started to wear these at 8 years old.

Amazing Insoles

These are so great....I ordered a second pair! Help with metatarsal joint pain tremendously!

Sole inserts are critical to foot health

I’ve been using sole inserts for many years after a painful experience with Plantar fasciitis. I’ve been able to hike and walk without any reoccurrence and pain free. Can’t recommend enough.

No More Back Pain

Over the last few years I had started to experience periodic back pain. Especially after long days of business travel. I started using the performance insoles in all my shoes; thin, medium or thick depending on the shoes. Back pain significantly reduced. Great product.

No more back pain

Over the last few years I had started to experience periodic back pain. Especially after long days of business travel. I started using the performance insoles in all my shoes; thin, medium or thick depending on the shoes. Back pain significantly reduced. Great product.

Back pain relief

Walking back pain Is no more. I used to get low back pain when I walked but the Sole foot pads it no longer happens! I use them every day.

Stability & Preventive Care for Plantar Fasciitis

Really like ‘em, would recommend! After acquiring P. Fasciitis in my heel, I looked for a professional sole plate and material wise, this one impressed me the most. Other insoles may offer more comfort but the fit & molding offer a “perfect fit” similar to footwear like Birkenstock for which they are famous for. And the Met Pad is key to weight distribution. Anyone with a medium to high arch will quickly adapt to it, hardly even noticing the Met Pad after some use. Again, speaking from the perspective of heel pain, it helped relieve pressure from my heel with the Met Pad. Here’s a tip: Rest your feet and ensure there is little to no pain before using. Understand this is not a pillow but a stable foundation for your shoes/cleats. This is preventive and stability care, those with inflamed feet/aggregated symptoms should wait until symptoms subside to a manageable degree. As for sizing, length is easier to cut and width is fine, just use care to cut precisely. I’m usually a 9.5 and bought the 9M, works well.

Helped with high arches

I have high arches and these helped with foot pain while training for half marathon.

Finally, comfort!

I have worked my way through many footbeds and orthotics, and spent lots of money and have never been completely comfortable. As a marathoner I understand pain is part of the process but finally these SOLE foot beds are comfortable straight out of the box and keep my feet happy mile after mile!

Helped my sesamoiditis!

These have been a huge help in alleviating foot pain for me!

Best Footbeds Ever

I have been wearing these footbeds for the past month and they are great. I have plantar fasciitious and the pain has completely gone away. I like them so much I have bought 2 more pair.

Helped my husband a ton!

My husband was having a lot of foot (specifically heel) pain. These insoles helped a ton!

Easy and great for skiing

These footbeds were easy to trim and customized and have worked great. I have about 20 ski days on them. They take up little/no volume in the boot, support my foot well and have helped with foot pain and cramping. I am a part time ski instructor and coach high performance. For me, these footbeds have been an very good alternative to custom($$$$) footbeds.

Help for plantar fasciitis

When I began using these soles in my running shoes, the pain from plantar fasciitis decreased significantly. I am optimistic that they will help the healing process.

Don't leave home without them.

I have been wearing these for 1 1/2 years. I've tried others but none compare. Before these inserts, my hip and knee pain were unbearable. I won't use anything else.

Way better than pharmacy insoles

These keep my knees from pain when standing during the workday, I will be re-purchasing the same items when the time comes.

Buy them!

I have hip and knee replacements in the right leg. The joint pain resolved after surgery but I had persisting mechanical issues and chronic pain in my lateral knee, thigh, hip and butt. My PT recommended these for over pronation. My gait improved almost immediately. Wearing these just feels right. Under the guidance of my therapist I am able to exercise again without aggravating and worsening my pain symptoms.

Helps Relief Joint Pain After Running

Wearing the insole helps reduce my discomfort after a long walk or run. I tend to step on the side of my left foot. The insole make it feel I’m more aligned when I step forward.

Best zero drop insoles

These insoles helped with plantar fasciitis pain. They fit well and are comfortable.

Very good quality

These insoles have really helped me walk without pain.

No more pain

They have been fantastic support for my feet. They have gotten rid of my planters fasciitis

Feet Saving Foot Beds!

I've purchased a number of SOLE foot beds over the past 15+ years for all my shoes & I LOVE them!! They've saved me from debilitating foot pain - I've even tried those $400+ custom orthotics but the only thing that took plantar fasciitis pain away are these amazing foot beds! Thank you SOLE!

Very helpful met support

I was using arch support insoles from another manufacturer to recover from plantar fasciitis. With continuing pain, I saw an orthotics specialist, who helped me understand that I was also living with reduced metatarsal arch and reduced fat pads under my toe bones. I ordered the met support insoles from Sole, and it has helped a lot. I use them in my cushy sneakers, and afterwards bought a 2nd pair of medium for other shoes and a pair of thick met support insoles for my stiffer hiking shoes.

Lifesaver!

These have been fantastic! A coworker recommended them, almost 2 months in and so far my left foot plantar fasciitis pain has vanished. Thank you!

I use sole active with met pads allow to walk with no pain.

I use the medium active sole with met pads I have them in all mu shoes and have been using them for 3-4 years. Love them.

Really helps!

Takes a little bit to get used to them, but I teach PE and am on my feet all day and come home with less foot pain. My feet don’t like shoes without them now

No more pain!!

Highly recommended for plantar fasciitis.

footbeds provide great support

I use Sole footbeds as part of caring for my plantar fasciitis. I walk daily for exercise, and the Sole Active Medium footbeds always outlast my (sneaker) walking shoes. Typically, I only need to replace the footbeds after wearing out at least 2 pairs of sneakers. And, with daily stretching, my plantar fasciitis no longer causes me any pain.

Works well

I have been wearing these for a couple months and they are helping with the foot pain.

Love These Footbeds

These are super comfortable & fit perfect in footwear. Highly recommend....and I'll be ordering another pair. I suffer with metatarsal joint pain & need to wear footbeds and/or orthotics. These ones help immensely.

Saved my shoes and my feet!

I have used SOLE insoles in the past, but it has been several years since I purchased my last set. But, I bought a pair of HOKA shoes that I was struggling with. The side of my feet were sore from the way the OEM insole angles up. I tried other basic insoles, cheap ones from a discount department store, but I still had pain in the same area. In desperation, I ordered a set of Performance Medium Cork insoles from SOLE to see if I could save these pricey shoes. The difference was AMAZING! The SOLE insole is supportive, keeps my feet in place and has enough thickness so the outsole of the HOKA no longer pushes into the sides of my feet. It is no doubt the best thing that I could do for my feet. I am on my feet for long periods of time. When we travel, we put in a lot of steps on uneven walkways, cobblestones and brick, rocks, concrete and I never want to worry about my feet being sore. I need my feet to be supported and stable. These insoles are a good match with my shoes!

Noticable difference in comfort

Took a few days to help break in on my right foot but I chalked that up to my previous support was lacking. Now they feel great and I notice way less back pain walking and standing on concrete.

Healing and pain relief

My doctor recommended the Sole brand metatarsal insole for Morton’s neuroma pain. They are helping. I am able to walk longer distances and I believe the inserts are helping heal the neuroma. They hold up well.

Game changing foot beds

These made more of a difference for my foot pain than the $500 custom-made foot beds

Fits perfectly, exceptional support!

I wear size 11 mens shoes and sole # 11 fits perfectly without trimming. I developed pain in the bottom of my left foot from 5 day per week rucking with 65lbs and the sole met pad resolved the issue. Fantastic product.

Jasper Chukka

I wear them in the hose all day instead of slippers. They are comfortable and have releaved back pain.

Definitely an Improvement

Replaced the clapped out stock soles in my ski boots and immediately relieved some foot pain. Wish I would have done this a year ago.

Foot pain gone

I was suffering from planter fasciitis, to the point that I was unable to walk and stand. I tried these insoles, and it went away. These are my 2nd and 3rd pair, because I wore out my cork sole ones. I would highly recommend this product to get you back on your feet.

Helpful but not perfect for me

I have extremely high arches and so get pressure on the heal and the ball of my feet. These inserts are comfortable and helped my heal pain but then I was feeling pressure on the ball of my foot so I had to get an extra pad for that.. even so, I will be using them for long hikes.

Best footbeds ever!

I love these I feel no foot pain after walking or standing for long periods.

Wonderful for Plantar Fasciatis

I have high arches and strained them pretty bad last summer while running the Hood To Coast. I've been dealing with arch pain for months, but after a few weeks of using these insoles, my arch pain is mostly gone and I can hike without pain once again. These are going in all of my shoes!

Ideal for athletic footwear

These insoles fit in place of the ones that come with athletic footwear. They provide the same comfort and feel as the original insoles but now you have the comfort and pain relief that the insoles were intended to be for.

Relief for planter fasciatid

Helped relieve pain from planter fasciatis within a few days of using.

The Perfect Orthopedic

I recently developed Morton’s neuroma and was searching for an orthotic insert that could help with the pain. I discovered the SOLE Active Thin with Met pad and am thrilled that they not only can be utilized with my existing shoes but have given me the support and relief that I was searching for.

great footbeds and service

my wife has these in every shoe, helps solve her neuroma pain. Great service , great product

Fabulous Orthotics

After using very expensive and bulky prescription orthotics for years, I was given Aetrex inserts by my foot doctor last year. However, I decided that I needed to find an insert vendor with DEI practices that are more aligned with my feelings. That's how I found SOLE, a company that supports equality and gives back to the community as part of their mission. With some trepidation, I made the change from Aetrex and bought my first pair of SOLE metatarsal inserts, and wow (!) what a surprise. They are even more comfortable and effective than the prescription orthotics or the Aetrex inserts. They are easy to put into shoes, feel cushioned, and yet incredibly supportive. No more foot pain for me. It took a couple of days for me to adjust to them, and now I want more pairs for all of my shoes. I highly recommend SOLE inserts AND SOLE the company.

Game Changer

This is my third pair. I love them so much I want to have multiple pairs so i don't have to swap them out. I had terrible ankle pain which abated as soon as I started using these inserts. I used others previously....for many years. Some were custom made and cost hundreds. These SOLE inserts made a big difference. A game changer for me.

Great for a sore ankle!

My ankle was quite sore due to arthritis flare up. I put these insoles in my shoes and the pain and swelling have reduced significantly!

Great product

I have 4 pairs of these footbeds in separate shoes, slippers and boots. I plan to buy more so I don’t have to shift them to other boots,shoes. They have given me great relief from my heel spur pain. Love this product !

Great product

I have big arches which causes pain if I exercise without support. These work great for support.

Instant Difference

I’m a runner and, out of the blue, started having metatarsal pain in one foot. It made running less fun, but especially the time after. Googled potential solutions and came upon small inserts, which didn’t seem like they’d work well for runners as they’d surely move about. Purchased these instead and am so glad I did! They started helping immediately. I’ve been wearing them while running and in all other shoes for about a month and a half and am pain free so am now weaning my feet of them :) Will keep them close just in case! Great product.

Capri

Best footbeds ever

I love these cork boots! The material is really nice and the color! I love how my foot feels in them. I just recently wore them on a trip and did some walking and they really kept me balanced with no knee pain. I highly recommend

They work for helping pain

Love these things!

Huge improvement

i got these as I'm a daily walker with no car and extremely high arches and the improvement in my pain and the way i walk has improved so much. I highly recommend

Footbeds for work books

These were recommended by some friends to help my husband's sore feet and sore legs from hours of standing on ladders and other construction job requirements. Since putting these in, he has noticed the extreme foot ache and pains extending up his legs has drastically reduced. I definitely recommend these to others and will purchase more when these are due to be replaced.

Best footbeds ever!

Relieves heel and plantar pain. Can walk long distances. Game changers for walking or running

Great for foot health

I got plantar fasciitis several years ago. I healed my foot by wearing Sole flip flops with cork foot beds. Now I keep the pain from returning by using Sole insoles in all of my shoes that don't have arch support

Very Comfortable Shoe

The Jasper Chukka is very comfortable from the first moment you put them on. It is very warm and cozy even in subzero temperatures. On long walks the shoe remains very comfortable with no pain points. The Jasper does runs slightly short for me and if not for the super soft uppers would be uncomfortably short. If I were to purchase again, I would definitely size up.

Comfortable Support

I now have three pair, for my most often used shoes. Very comfortable; I don't even think about them. My inner knee joint pain has decreased.

Performance Medium Sole footbeds

I've been using this footbed for years after developing plantar fasciitis. Very pleased with this product. I'm now running with very little to no pain in my feet thanks to them!

Fixed My Plantar Fasciitis

Previously had a tremendous amount of pain due to Plantar Fasciitis. After a month of wearing these, all pain has gone away. I’ll be purchasing additional ones for all of my other shoes.

No more knee pain

I've been eating these insoles for 10 years now in my work boots, and for the past 4 years my primary sneakers. Usedto be be whenever I find myself standing for a long time or working hard I will get severe knee pain that will last days. Because of these insoles I don't get severe pain no more, and I can now work and stand comfortably for hours every day.

I buy these for every pair of boots I have.

I've had symptoms of plantar fasciitis in the past. Ever since I've bought these footbeds with the high arch there has been no more foot pain.

Saved me from pain

I had terrible foot pain. A switch to these insoles took it all away!

The best

They are the best thing to happen to my feet. No more foot pain. They are wonderful!

better than my RX insoles

Even with the thin met pads they only fit my fashion cowboy boots but no more foot pain after long hours walking around carrying heavy items!

Randa

Good wool boots

I have been wearing these for a few weeks now and am overall pleased. They do run a bit small, so I cannot wear thick socks. However, they are warm enough for my needs, so i do need thick socks. I wear them at work and sometimes around the house to have warmth and arch support. The sole is fairly hard, but the foot support is great and has molded well to my foot providing needed relief from my foot pain. I like that wool repels water so I don't have to worry about quick jaunts to and from the car when it's wet outside. Overall, quite pleased with these, and the company's customer service is truly top notch

Game Changer

Goodbye foot pain! Almost instantly eliminated significant foot pain / issues!

Helping my feet

I’ve been wearing these for a couple of months. I am noticing a difference in my knees - I am experiencing way less pain.

Michael

Pain relief

Comfortable and feeling no pain at the end of the day

My wife loves these insoles

I got these for my wife to reduce foot pain. She loves them. They help make her shoes last longer and help keep foot pain at bay.

Great for work boots!

I've been wearing them for about a month in my work boots and haven't had any heel pain. They are very supportive and fit perfectly into my boots without cutting or resizing. After many 8-10 hour days, my feet still feel great. Ordered another set within 2 weeks.

Love these

I love that these fit perfectly in my training sneakers. Ever since I started wearing thes insoles, I no longer have lower back pain.

Active Medium with Met Pad

My friends have been using these soles for years, and recommended yoursole.com when I’d plantar fasciitis. Was somewhat suspicious about the difference and effectiveness of their products. Though I don’t have Morton’s neuroma nor metatarsalgia, I ordered the Active Medium with Met Pad. Surprisingly, the fit and width were true to size, comfortable, and immediately relieved my fasciitis pain!

Feel great

Had some tendon and ligament related arch pain related to overuse. Got these footbeds in all my shoes, boots, running shoes, and no more pain!

Insole for Foot Conditions

On order of an orthopedic foot surgeon for insoles with a met pad, purchased for a few foot problems that cause pain during and after walking for exercise. So far they are comfortable and are rotated between multiple pairs of running shoes that I alternate.

Relief from Foot Pain

An orthopedic foot surgeon recommended an insole with a metatarsal pad for metatarsalgia & morton's neuroma. They're still in the break in period but seems to be working and they are comfortable so far. It's replacing a decades old custom orthotic for use in my Brook's Glycerin running shoes used to walk about 25 miles per week. The active is the best to move between my multiple pairs of walking shoes that I alternate.

Very comfortable

These are relieving my pain

makes good shoes great

I have half a dozen pairs of Soles for various shoes, dress shoes, casual walkers, etc. They make a less than perfect original shoe sole great by substituting them with the Soles. Wear them in (don't heat them) and they form perfectly to your feet. Amazing and does wonders for anyone with foot pain.

Best Footbeds I have Used

I really needed something for my feet as they were in pain for the last 6 to 9 months after injury. That’s when I found out I had a high arch., these foot beds have saved me. I now have them in every one of my shoes and don’t wear any shoes without them.

Best footbeds ever

This is my 2nd pair. I started wearing Sole footbeds 3 years ago after seeing a podiatrist about plantar fasciitis. I LOVE them. I no longer have foot pain or back pain.

Good product

Started wearing these 12 years ago on the recommendation of a PT to address chronic PF pain, and have not had a single occurrence of PF since, in spite of running 2,500 to 3,000 miles per year. Tried the cork-based version once, but they didn't hold up in wet conditions of trail running. These will last through four or five pairs of shoes.

Very helpful for my Plantar fasciitis

This was recommended to me by my Dr when I developed Plantar fasciitis out of the blue. These soles paired with a nighttime brace got the issue resolved and me pain free.

MC

Made my hiking boots ver comfortable and alleviated the pain from knee juries .

Great footbeds

I've tried many different types of footbeds and these along with the other Met pad foot beds from SOLE are the ones that consistently give my tired feet the most relief. I have arthritis in my toes and could't walk without pain until I started using these. The version without the Met pad is also one of the best.

Cured my neuroma pain!

Adding Sole footbeds to all my shoes has been life changing! No more plantar fasciitis and minimal pain from my Morton’s neuroma!

the Answer to my PF pain!!

My podiatrist recommended these. The break-in time was easy and I was experiencing a dramatic reduction of my plantar fasciitis pain, imediately. I bought 3 additional pairs, a few weeks later!

As usual

These Sole inserts perform miracles with every step I take. Walking is always comfortable. No foot pain ever and I have a pair in all my shoes.

No pain

About 10 years ago I had plantar fasciitis and was in pain. A physical therapist I knew recommended SOLE products to me and I’ve been wearing them ever since. I make sure all my shoes have room for them and I am no longer in any pain. I love them.

Daily Drivers

I use these in my daily boots in place of the stock footbed’s and it’s made a huge difference in my arch. I no longer have the lateral ankle pain r/t flat feet.

Best footbeds ever!

I wished I discovered this brand earlier these soles make my shoes so comfortable and eliminate foot pain.

Met Pad Works Well

Added to running shoes to address forefoot pain. Worked well. Needed to do some extra trimming for women's shoe.

Great for kids cleats

Added to daughters cleats to address ankle / shin pain, great results.

Very comfortable shoes

These are very comfortable almost no foot pain even if you have to stand all day.

Best footbeds

Super comfortable. They have helped greatly with my foot pain.

Sole to the rescue

I've been wearing Sole moldable insoles for the past 4 years and have owned 5 sets in that time, in boots and tennis shoes for support and pain relief since I do over 10000 steps per day on hard concrete. And they have been game changers for me, since I'm a big dude so when my wife started complaining about pain in her heel and cramping in the night in her Achilles heel, doing some research it looks like she developed collapsed arches in her left foot. So I ordered a pair of Sole Active thin moldable insoles, and it's solved her pain problem the same day she put them in. She's a teacher and stands all day typically on fashion style flat tennis shoes, and her being petite she got away with less weight on her feet, but it finally caught up and one of her arches looks collapsed. The Sole inserts give her the support she needs all day and by the end of the day she has no foot pain and her lower back pain has been relieved as well. Shows to me once again, when you lay the proper foundation to your body, is the feet and give them a solid supportive footing instead of soft unsupportive gel, the rest of your body is aligned and happy. I will continue buying from Sole and recommending them to anyone that I speak to.

Swapped in my GORUCK shoes

I had some sudden pain on a run in August and had to take a break from running while I healed. Even walking ended up being painful - with the exception of when I wore Birks. I couldn't very well exercise in Birks, so when I found SOLE, I was thrilled. Used my first pair in my GORUCK shoes (figured I could at least keep doing a *little* more than running while my foot healed) - they were magic. The shoes themselves have a wide toe box and an 8mm drop, and these insoles fit perfectly. I did the heat-mold before wearing, and I've been so thrilled!

Support

My regular shoes, however comfortable with cushioned insoles, did not provide the proper arch and support and led me to a diagnosis of plantar fasciitis. I now put the sole inserts into my shoes and can avoid the heal pain. Very happy 😊

Foot pain relief

I love these insoles and I have tried every one of them known to exist. They support my foot and help with balance. They are so worth the price.

Best arch support ever!!

Until I found Sole I was miserable! Aching feet that I could not step on or live with. The foot pain left me unable to do anything. Then I found Sole and my whole life changed. I have my life back! Thank You Sole!!!!

These are excellent inserts!

I started using Sole inserts to help with plantar fasciitis. After trying other inserts with little relief I was amazed as to how fast the pain went away after putting Sole inserts into my work boots. I use them in all of my shoes and boots now. I highly recommend them!

The best solution for multi sport athlètes

My collapsed arches combined with my over mobile joints where causing my knees and hips to be out of alignment resulting in injuries and pain. I discovered SOLE while researching fit solutions for ski touring boots. The low profile and water resistance of the active thin insoles make them perfect for this. As a long distance trail runner I am amazed at how these affordable and simple to use insoles have allowed me to run and ski pain free! I am also amazed at how well they last through everyday wear.

Allows me to walk long distances

I've relied on Sole insoles for years to help me walk longer distances without pain due to fatigue from a collapsed arch. The added cushion and support seem to work better for me than other insoles I've tried.

Helped with foot pain

I make a point of buying good shoes but these insoles are much better than the ones that come with the shoes. Relieved metatarsal pain.

Best foot inserts ever

These saved my life! No more foot pain and so comfortable. Highly recommend!

Great Upgrade from my previous sole insoles

I have several insoles that i purchased from sole that I'm extremely happy with and they've lasted for years. This is the first sole insole that I purchases with the met pad and I find it to be a great upgrade that helps reduce my forefoot pain and aches after a long walk or run.

Game changer

I’ve been wearing these for a year now. Absolute game changer of an insole. I’ve tried many other brands including customer made. These are easy to use and completely stopped any foot pain. Order a size larger and cut them to fit just like they say.

My feet are so much happier!

I am using the active medium in a pair of Ons. What a world of difference. Shoe pain is gone!

Great footbeds!

No more foot pain since I started wearing these in all of my shoes

works!

Almost instant pain relief

Total satisfaction

The best footbeds. I had a lot of issues with my foot. My podiatrist recommended these and within in days the pain and discomfort started to get better. I have already recommended these to 4 other people. I have a pair in all my shoes

Active with the Metatarsal Pad

I have both the Active thick and the medium with Met pads. I have metatarsalgia in my right foot and these insoles make hiking and long walking possible without pain. I also wear the Performance mediums with Met pad in my house slippers. I tried a few other brands and got less relief. My son-in-law turned me on to Sole, and now he's my favorite ;-)

Highly recommended footbed

After wearing this for a week it feels comfortable and it lessens the pain in my heels.

Excellent product.

Footbed is made of high quality material and is very comfortable. It has ameliorated my foot pain.

Awesome!

These have taken care of my heel pain I was having!

Best arch supports ever!

I had found another brand and while they were cork also, they just weren’t quite a perfect fit for my high arches. Once I received my SOLE supports I changed my walking shoes immediately. I’ve been THRILLED at how my foot pain is going away! Almost never have pain now…before I had pain every day. I’m a lifetime buyer!

Works like a charm

I’ve tried several inserts to help with Morton’s Neuroma and the SOLE insert with the Met Pad was the only one that helped. I put it in every pair of shoes I wear and I’m basically pain free. It works!

Purchased For Plantar Fascitis

Purchased 2 pair of the Sole insoles for the relief of plantar fasciitis. These are the only insoles I have tried that have made a difference and have so far almost eliminated my pain. The advantage of these Sole insoles is that they can be heated and custom fitted to each foot.

Makes great shoes fit perfect

These insoles are simply marvelous. I use them in all my shoes. I have two very different arches and they mold quickly, without any heating other than the heat of my feet, to fit perfectly. Being able to get a wide width in a thin insole is a rare and wonderful thing. What makes them even better is that I have yet to have a pair wear out on me. I can walk for miles, pain free.

Tried these for plantar fasciitis - excellent!

These footbeds have been a game changer! I’ve been wearing them for over a month and at first, they were a bit uncomfortable (maybe a week) and then they gradually formed to my foot and I’d say my plantar fasciitis pain has been reduced by 80%. I bought these on sale after seeing them recommended online and figured for the price, they were about the same as drugstore brands, but had very good reviews for plantar fasciitis. I also liked that they are made from cork.

These are the best insoles ever!

After wearing these insoles for several months in my shoes, I have found that these are the best insoles I have ever owned. I didn't do the fitting process but simply wore them and let the insoles form to my feet. I have had less foot pain and other issues that I was experiencing. Highly recommend these insoles.

Pain free

I’ve been struggling with plantar fasciitis for several months now and tried all the exercises and home remedies. Sole inserts have relieved my pain and I’m even able to walk regularly again!

Great footbed replacement

Assisted with foot pain during activity and after.

Solved my metatarsal problem

I developed a bone bruise on my metatarsal and was told by the podiatrist, that it would not heal due to the lack of cushion on my feet and to buy Sole metatarsal insoles. I have four sets which I use in all my shoes and while I still have pain if walking barefoot, the Sole insoles have enabled me to walk as much as 12 miles in a single day. I highly recommend them for anyone with a similar condition.

Foot pain gone

Completely removed foot pain.

Perfect for soccer cleats

These are just what my son needed for his Nike soccer cleats! He was experiencing heel pain with his new Nike cleats( the top of the line ones :/) I ordered these and the night he put them in his heel pain went away and hasn’t been back!

Foot pain is gone

I put these is my tennis shoes and my foot pain is gone. Great support and comfort.

Fixing My Feet

Since I purchased SOLE insoles with a metatarsal pad I no longer experience foot pain after long walks.

Never Did I Ever ...

That's right! Never did I ever believe something as simple as a footbed would make such an immediate and profound difference in my physical wellbeing, but the SOLE performance footbed with a cork base has done it. I have a long history of lumbar degeneration that has become more problematic over time. At 62 years young, I keep active by walking several miles daily. Unfortunately, my lumbar issues has caused left hip pain that has increasingly made it challenging to walk and sleep. No exaggeration ... the FIRST TIME I slipped this footbed set into my sneakers and walked it was instant relief. No hip pain, no low back pain. Incredible results! After several weeks of daily use, I am feeling better than ever and preparing to order again, so that I have options. I highly recommend anyone sitting on the fence to move these footbeds into your shopping cart and purchase. You'll be as surprised as I was!

Great Product…

I having been using Sole footbeds for some time but, never realized the impact until recently. I started working in a building where I was walking ~15,000 steps a day. The first week was hell. I added Sole Performance Think footbeds to my work boots and my back pain went away. I highly recommend this product.

Love the met pad for pain

Use these in my hiking boots. Found the medium changed my heel placement in my ASICS shoes. Heel slid up and down a bit. Put the thin met pad sole in those. For Morton’s neuroma these are wonderful. Relieved the pain that my podiatrist couldn’t with custom orthotics.

Found relief

I’ve had sesamoiditis for a couple months and was using metatarsal pads to relieve the pain, but my doctor said I needed inserts. After reading reviews for the recommended brands, I opened up my search and stumbled upon Sole. The met pad isn’t as pronounced as what I was using, but with the arch support I don’t need a half inch of cushion to walk normally. I’ve been using them for a little over a month and I’m almost back to my regular pace. The 30-day warranty is also peace of mind that I couldn’t find with other brands.

Bye Bye Pain

After giving up on my podiatrist trying to fix my Morton’s neuroma by adjusting my custom fit orthotics, I thought to give these a try. The met pad has greatly reduced the pain in the ball of my foot when wearing them. I like the thin ones because they don’t change the fit in my shoes. If you have a well soled shoe they are quite comfortable. I would like a thicker pad, but they cause my heel to slip in and out of the shoe. The thicker ones work better in boots. I like the cork pads because they seem to get more comfortable with time as they mold to your foot. They don’t support my arch as much as my custom orthotics but the difference has not caused a recurrence of my heel pain. For the amount I have to pay for custom I can buy several of these. Don’t yet know their longevity to see if it is cheaper in the long run, but the pain is gone so that’s a win for me!

Pain relief

These relieve foot pain, where Super Feet only did for a couple weeks. I continue to use Sole for long hours with comfort to keep going.

Excellent product

I have worn SOLE inserts for years. They never fail me and they have made running, hiking and everyday walking pain free. My life would be different without them and I appreciate them each day when I put my shoes on.

Very good quality

I was told of this brand of inserts by my physical therapist after my knee replacement. I also suffer from narrowing of the lower spine. I work on concrete all day at my job. These have helped me very much with foot pain, knee pain, leg cramps and my back. Would tell anyone they are worth their money.

Thick cushion

I bought these because I have plantar fasciitis in my feet, and after a lot of research into a lot of insoles, these looked the most promising. I bought 2 pairs and have worn these in my sneakers and work boots for about 4 months. They are definitely worth it. I can’t remember the last time I felt the plantar fasciitis pain in my feet. Also, my feet don’t fatigue when I’m on them for a 12 hour day at work. This isn’t an immediate miracle cure, It’s a gradual lessening of pain until you forget you were once in pain. I found that they molded to my feet pretty quickly and did not have to put them in the oven. They were also easy to trim to a 10 1/2 using my old sole as a guide. The active thick insole fit into my sneakers and work boots just fine.

Save Your Feet, Save Your Mobility

Your feet are often neglected and unattended. I worked in a manual labour industry where I was on my feet 11 - 15 hours a day. I chose sole footpads in my 30’s and have been wearing them everyday for over 30 years in both my women's CAT work-boots and my lined rubber boots. Women and men around me developed a number of foot problems as they aged with serious consequences and immobility issues. I have no foot problems and I KNOW they are because of Sole footbeds. Over the years I have recommended them to thousands of people who have shared their foot pain with me and I will continue to recommend them until I die.

Works like a charm

My work boys are incredibly uncomfortable. These have saved me from so much pain

Best support for back pain

I've been wearing these inserts for years to support my flat feet and bad back. I don't leave home without them.

Patti Garrity

Nice boots

I have received a lot of compliments on the look of these boots. The cork support seems a bit hard, and I would have liked it if the metatarsal pad was a bit bigger to support better neuroma relief, but the toe box is roomy and I'm able to wear them to walk around in style for a while with no added pain, which is a big deal for me.

Best sole

I’ve been wearing them for weeks and they are very comfortable and they reduce my back pain.

My husband loves SOLEs

The best way to purchase this product is using the official SOLE website. I purchase them for my husband who has been using souls for over 10 years. He swears by them. They are great for posture, back pain, being active being on your feet for long periods of time he puts them in his work shoes, his boots and his athletic shoes.

Ahhhhh

They made all the difference. No more pain, well worth the money for my recovery.

Arch pain has gone away

I have a collapsed arch on one foot and normal on the other. These footbeds are perfect because they conform to my too different feet and give me the support I need where I need it! I have several pairs for different shoes. Couldn’t afford to do that with custom footbeds. A great alternative.

Best products

I first started wearing sole footbeds when recommended by my podiatrist These footbeds are so comfortable and provide much relief for foot pain

Works well

I’ve been having heal pain, and these soles seems to help. I will continue to wear them.

Luv my Sole inserts

I have flat feet and after being on my feet all day, my feet, hips, and back will be barkin’. With the Sole inserts in, I am not in as much pain at the end of the day. I luv them!

Life changing for my foot pain

Not only would I recommend these but I have - to family and friends and coworkers!

Good old standard with some extra

I own too many to count pairs of SOLE products in all three thickness variations plus a few "special edition" ones that I acquired over the years. In the last couple of years my previously undiagnosed pelvic position asymmetry (and the resulting gait asymmetry) started to cause me a pain in my left forefoot. Adding the met pad to the standard foot arch support contributes to the correction of this gait asymmetry and gives my foot some pain relief (on top of the physio treatment and focusing on the proper body posture, of course).

Good support

These insoles improve my foot pain and make walking much more comfortable. My doctor recommended them.

Nice

Put in daughter's soccer cleats, resolved her ankle pain.

Best for work

I’ve been wearing these for work and haven’t had any foot pain since I got them.

No more back pain

I have converted all my shoes with sole inserts. Thin ones for my dressier shoes, and medium ones for my athletic shoes. It has been a game changer for me. No more back pain! I highly recommend them.

I’ve put these in each pair of now shoes for years

I love these things. I have bad feet. The pain is sometimes excruciating. The SOLE inserts have made a huge difference. I don’t dare ware a pair of shoes without them.

Love sole brand insoles.

I own 3 pair of active with met pad, medium. No more ankle, knee, or hip pain. The best insole I have ever owned. Better than foot levers insole in my opinion.

Best insoles

It takes away the pain from heel.

Performance Thick

I was having some back pain. After adding the performance thick footbeds to my work boots the pain went away

Very stiff

Its very stiff, the arch support is too rigid, high and painful on the arch. Used it on a Salomon xt6 and it was way wider than the shoe even though i did not order the wide version

Plantar fasciitis relief

I started wearing these years ago when my heels hurt from lack of arch support in my running shoes. Since that time my pain has gone away and I put sole inserts in all of my shoes—even dress shoes. I just completed my 6th marathon and my feet are pain free thanks in part to sole inserts.

Super comfortable

Takes the pain away from heel

Has helped with foot and back pain

My husband was wearing a different brand of insoles. His new foot doctor told him he was wearing the wrong size and that there were better choices. This was one of the choices so he gave them a try and they have really helped with his foot pain and his back pain.

Amazing For My Foot Pain

I've been using these for about a month and have switched all of my shoes to them now. I've been able to run again.

Love them!

Soles insoles have helped by under pronation so much. I do not have heel pain any longer. Thank you so much!

My new favorite hiking orthotic

These cork based orthotics have kept my feet pain free over hundreds of hiking miles this summer. The cork cushioning and support feels markedly different from previous orthotics I've worn. I really recommend these and have several pairs now.

Pain free hiking

I have a Morton's neuroma and these rigid insoles with metatarsal support keep me pain free during long, hard hikes.

Great arch support

I love the heel and arch support. I wish that these soles had more support in the ball of one's foot. That's where I have most of my foot pain when I walk a lot.

Very good insole

I wear Dansko sneakers, they have good insoles, but even then I was having toe pain. I have a bunion on one foot with a dropped arch on that foot, so better arch support was needed. I ordered the Sole active with met pad. There is a noticeable improvement. I heat them in the oven initially. I have now ordered a second pair.

Exactly what I needed

I’m a runner and have been having metatarsal pain. Using these footbeds in my running shoes last few weeks have made the difference.

True Comfort

I've been using these footbeds for years. They have been comfortable and have made my foot, leg and knee pain dissappear.

Nice

Placed in soccer cleats and quickly removed some shin pain.

helped to relieve most pain from my Mortons Neurova

I will defintely get a second pair.

No More Pain

I am 75-years-old and I have worn orthotics for more than 40 years.... often custom-made. But in the last year, my ankles have been hurting, especially after a day of walking even just a little. I was told that I have arthritis in my ankles and that there isn't much that can be done about it. I reluctantly went to Physical Therapy to see if I could get a little improvement. The PT suggested the Sole brand shoe inserts. I got them and it's been a Total Game Changer. Within weeks, the pain went away. Went away! I can walk further and for longer periods of time without pain. I bless this company!

An affordable alternative to custom orthodics

Seven years ago I was on a trip in SW USA. I was in much pain walking, I was thinking I might have to forego all of my planned hikes. I went into an REI store and asked one of the shoe people and he said "You need SOLE, I use the Performance Thick." Several pairs later, dress shoes, sneakers, causual shoes, every pair I own has SOLE. The way the mold to your feet makes them perfect. I highly recommend.

Great product

These insoles have relieved the pain in the ball of my foot and allowed me to walk our golden retriever daily!

Planter fasciitis finally GONE

1st it's the right then it moved over to the left exercises, orthotics ,shockwave helped alitte. . To make things worse my walking abilities diminish agony. Then my cousin suggested Sole insoles and a miracle has happened I have found relief from agony I like him will have multiple pairs of insoles for all my shoes. We just came back from Disneyland 12000 steps per day diminished leg strength was cause of my discomfort not pain in my feet very happy to be with my grandson's and family instead of waiting for there return. By them!! Cheers Clay

Relief

These insoles were recommended by my podiatrist for my plantar fasciitis. Along with exercises, the insoles have helped me overcome my foot pain and limitations. I have recommended Sole to many of my family and friends.

Consistent quality product

First started using Sole in 2018, back pain is gone, never looked back. Fit my runners, business shoes and casual footwear. Highly recommended.

Great footbeds

Helped take pain away in my feet while cycling

Best insole’s I have ever had !

I’ve been wearing them for 6 weeks, I feel great, no pain in ankles, knees or hips. Wear them in all my shoes.

Great footpads

I’ve been wearing these inside my running shoes and have had no foot pain since using.

Excellent non-custom footbeds

I have had several pairs of Soles at this point, with and with out Met pads. Simply put, they have been the best non-custom orthotic for me. The arch support is excellent and while it feels strange at first the met pads really do help relieve and redistribute pressure. While they are by no means cheap the are definitely the best affordable option to relieve foot pain from fallen/flat arches etc.

Definitely deserves 5/5

Did some research into finding something to alleviate ball of foot pain, for me it was the left foot around the big and 2nd toe. The issue was any hockey skates I tried on would start causing pain and discomfort in that area. I actually got to the point of thinking I'd have to play and skate less to deal with the pain. But after comparing Superfeet, Sidas, and several insole brands actually, I found that the SOLE met pad in medium was the best for me and actually eliminated the pain and discomfort I felt while in skates. Can skate again without issue for 3-5 hours a day. I don't advocate for like any products, I've written very few reviews over the years. However, these definitely deserve to be praised since they actually work as advertised. I wear size 10.5-11 shoes and have been using a men's size 11 met pad in several pairs of size 8.5 Wide/Fit 3 hockey skates for over a month. If I get a year out of them then totally worth it, they do seem to be durable and good quality, no problems so far. As a side note, the CCM AS1 skates came stock with an almost 5mm thick insole which I got used to. 100% medium works well in hockey skates, the thin met pad will obviously work too but don't think thin is the only choice for hockey skates. I have the medium met pads in Bauer M4's, M40's, M5 Pro's, and Mach's. They all fit amazing and I definitely prefer the extra padding.

Great foot beds

Great foot beds. These have dramatically decreased my foot pain. However, I think I prefer the athletic ones over the performance option. The athletic ones seem to be a bit more firm and ridgid, which is what my feet seem to prefer. The only other downfall with the performance option is that the cork base on the footbed does squeak in certain shoes.

So happy I finally bought these

My podiatrist actually recommended these insoles a year ago and I put off buying them. I have high arches and was having foot pain. From the first wear I had less pain and now after several weeks, I can walk much longer and no pain! I don’t know how I lived without these for so long. I’ve bought several pairs now and cannot wear shoes without these anymore.

Best Insole

Always replace insoles in new shoes with Sole insoles. After having plantar fasciitis for a few years since using Sole for years now no more issues. Pain free!

Changed my work life

Bought these as a bartender. 100% recommend to anyone looking to ease the pain on their back/legs

Great

I use these in my work boots, they help a lot with foot pain and fatigue during a 12 hour work day.

Great

I use these in my day to day shoes, they help a lot with foot pain.

Amazing shoe inserts

I have been using SOLE inserts for over two months and have found them to be extremely comfortable in all kinds of activity. My feet are no longer swollen and the aches and pains have ceased. I wear the inserts 100% of the time in all my shoes.

Metatarsalgia relief

These sole have relieved the pain by 90%. Great product. Been using the products for many years now. Wondering if the metatarsal padding on the sole was adjustable if it would totally cure my discomfort and eliminated the inflammation compleyely.

Better than expected

I bought these insoles for my hiking shoes and my first impression was that I should have bought the Active Medium -- but no, after forming them in a warm oven, following the instructions provided, they fitted perfectly. On a long hike without these insoles I had the sensation that my socks were gathering up under the ball of my foot -- in reality they weren't. With the insoles I have no such sensation and my feet come off the trail relaxed, pain free, and ready for more. Build quality is great too. Highly recommended.

Great footbeds

I have many problems with my feet but these are great insoles! I didn't need to break them in much and they are really helping me when I have pain in my feet.

NO PAIN

I used to have pain wearing redwings insoles and now I don’t!!

Night and day difference!

My feet feel so much more supported with the met pad on these insoles. It takes some getting used to, but there wasn’t any pain or discomfort while wearing them

Perfect for my new hiking boots

My hiking boots have a large toe box and these thick sole pads fit great into them, giving more cushion, comfort and support than the supposedly "orthotic" footbeds that came with the boots. Wearing them while gardening has reduced the foot pain I usually have in the ball of my foot.

Perfect for my "cute" sneakers

This fit great into my little white sneakers giving me excellent foot support and reducing pain in the ball of my foot.

Earthing shoe

I am very interested in your Jasper Chucka. With very little change, this shoe could become an earthing shoe. The earthing/grounding shoe market is wide open and so far the shoes available don’t work for those who would like a cork footbed or have specific foot pain issues. This is a growing group as boomers age. I hope you will consider this alteration. Please continue to offer cork footbeds, I love love love your products.

Comfortable

I have to wear work boots at work. The pain in my heel was making my day difficult. The sole insert helped me get thru the day

Really helped with my foot and ankle pain

Recovering from two broken legs and nearly 3 months of bedrest these soles are really helping with my foot and ankle pain as I get back on my feet.

Michael Haler

Mr

I purchased these Work Medium inserts for my shoes to replace my Softec Ultra Men's 9 that I have been using. This was a mistake. The Softec feel better and I'm not having the constant pain in my left heel that I have with the Work Medium.

Island Style

Perfect

I’ve been using sole footbeds awhile, and when they were able to accommodate my wide keen work boots. It was a blessing, it has helped and corrected my plantar fasciitis pain. I’ve raved about them to coworkers and sent them a pair. They too have enjoyed the footbeds..it’s worth the money, only footbeds in my shoes.

Very supportive

These are very supportive and they have helped lessen the pain from PF.

Diane W

Pain relief

Sole insoles are literally life savers! My go to for insoles for over a decade. I've never had a bad pair.

Diane W

Support as needed

Great support for less pain

Pain relief for my legs

My legs and feet don't hurt anymore when I have my Soles in!

Pain Relief

Bought these for pain relief, they seem to be helping although I had a flare up this week. However that might have been from overdoing it. I’ll keep an eye on it for now and do an update later.

Satisfaction

Hello, I've been wearing the Performance Medium with Met Pad for about a week and all I can say is wow. I was skeptical purchasing insoles online but decided to give them a try. I must say that I'm extremely happy with the fit and function of my insoles. After trimming the insole to fit into my shoe with ease and then the comfort having them in my shoes has been a blessing. I don't have any foot or back pain after a days work like I did previously without the insoles. Best decision I made was to purchase and will definitely be a return customer.

Love them!

I started to have planter fasciitis like heel pain and walking for more than 15 minutes would trigger it. I did some research and bought these inserts. Now I can be on my feet for more than an hour, no pain at all!

Good from the get go!

These were recommended to me by my podiatrist for everyday walking to help with ankle & metatarsal pain. I was pretty hesitant after seeing some bulky/stiff looking orthotics that didn’t look comfortable at all. Not to worry - these work great. I put them in my hiking boots without any trimming needed and had no problems getting used to them at all! Highly recommended!

Relief of pain

The Sole footbed's are a game changer! I would like to have them in all my shoes. I noticed a difference in the foot and leg pain after a very short time!

Best footbed for bad feet.

I have really bad feet. The pain is excruciating at times. I have to wear hiking shoes and boots mostly but even then my feet hurt a lot. SOLE footbeds are far superior to the insoles that come even with the the most expensive brands of shoes. I literally cannot hardly function without them.

the solution

I had very bad plantar fasciitis and my doctor recommended these insoles. It lets me walk without pain

Love them

I wish they would continue to make these, I love them in my Altra shoes and will continue to buy them if possible. I have been using this combo for a few years now and my foot pain is virtually non-existent now.

Great for plantar fasciitis

This is my second pair of performance wide thick soles, after the first pair made such a difference for my feet. No more pain! I wear them in Altra Lone Peak 8 shoes, and the combination has worked better than the cushier big-soled shoes often recommended for plantar fasciitis. I used the oven method to warm the soles and have them mold to my feet, and that worked well.

Feet savers

I’ve been using these on my runs for the last month now. I wake up pain free. Love these insoles!

Works great

Great for my knee pain

Helped with foot pain.

I never assumed I really needed and soul to help get rid of the pain of plantar fasciitis

Hip and back pain relief

Used in combination with heel lift to align hips and prevent hip/back pain. Also thankful for the eco friendly cork.

Pain relief

Works great to relieve pain in feet and legs.

Best footbed

I’ve been wearing these for a few years now and my foot pain is gone. I have them in all my sneakers and shoes. They make all the difference in the world , no more heel pain!

Glad I found these

The SOLE met pads were exactly what I needed. They definitely helping me get through the day with less foot pain.

Incredible for foot pain

This footbed is perfect - medium thickness so fits easily into my hiking boots and gives excellent support plus the met pad for my foot pain - thank you Sole for providing this product!

Feet and money saver

Developed plantar fasciitis and some Achilles tendinitis in January. Ran a 10k and a half-marathon and dealt with the consequences of the feet/leg pain. Looked up some treatment options (ie., PT, custom orthotics, etc) and decided to pull the trigger on purchasing these insoles. Along with weight training, I’m preparing for a marathon. After wearing these insoles, the aforementioned pain has definitely subsided.

Fixed my foot pain

I’ve been using Sole products for a number of years. I’m a nurse and am active outdoors. This footbed has decreased flares of plantar fasciitis and Capsulitis of the second toe. I highly recommend this item.

Best foot pads I’ve ever worn!

I’ve tried numerous foot pads/inserts over the last 49 years, including custom made inserts, I have finally found the solution to my foot and lower back pain, the Sole full length foot pad. I’ve been wearing them now for 8 weeks and absolutely love them. They were easy to trim as needed and the best feature is the cupping of the heel plus the full length. Strongly recommend this product.

No more pain on the arch of my foot

If been wearing this for years

Quality Product

I've had several pairs of these over the years and find them to be the only insoles that work to relieve my foot pain.

Made all the difference!

After using these in soles for the past 6 weeks my pain level has dropped from a 10 to a 4. I am so happy to have found these.

My solution to knee and back pain

I’ve been wearing Sole footbeds for years and have them in literally every pair of shoes I own! My flat feet cause pronation which jacked up my knees and lower back as I aged. These things have affordably and conveniently solved my problem. Absolutely no pain! Could not recommend them more.

Best footbeds!

I cannot even begin to describe how excited I am about these footbeds! I couldn’t even walk before without pain. I can now walk in comfort !They are fantastic !

These are amazing foot beds!

The Active Thick with Met Pad, with arch support, met pad and just enough cushioning, has given me the ability to walk on trails and hard surfaces with amazing comfort without - neuroma pain. Medical foot care is no longer needed. Soles Active Thick Met pad was the answer. I extremely grateful.

Great pain relief

First performance version I have tried and they feel great. Relieves pain from high arches really well. Recommended whole heartedly.

Very comfy and supportive, sizing is way off

These are great and nearly eliminate foot and back pain when I'm on my feet all day. Only complaint is that I had to cut a couple inches off the end because the advertised size is so far off. Also, I never received a shipping confirmation so I wasted the time of customer service trying to figure out why my order had not shipped.

Shoes

The sole itself is very comfortable, but the shoe offers no foot or ankle support for those wearing these shoes for pain relief/injury.

The best!

Cured my foot pain!

Sole Savers

Working outdoors with heavy boots really wears on my feet, back and hips. Since I started using these foot beds in my work boots, I actually look forward to putting them on everyday. I used to count down the hours until I could take my boots off, and now most of that pain and discomfort is gone.

Good for Arthritis

The cushioning really helps minimize my arthritis pain.

Great footbeds

These take away all the pain from my feet. I got got one for a friend.

Great

These are great, they have helped with my pain issues.

Eases my foot pain

I love them

Love my Sole footbeds!

I have the active thin foot beds in my hiking shoes; golf shoes; and tennis shoes. After wearing the foot beds for a short time in these shoes, my knee pain and hip tightness have disappeared. I am thrilled and also love the feel of the footbeds when I walk - they are so comfortable!

Can walk for miles

Made a huge difference for me. I can walk and play pickleball without pain.

Excellent Product

I recently began a walking/hiking program and suffered from foot pain even with high level hiking shoes. The Sole Active Medium insole has totally illuminated any foot pain making my walks and hikes pain free. I purchased an additional pair for my golf shoes and love them.

Great for low arches, comfy

These are very comfortable and keep me pain free thru the entire long workday. I have low , fallen arches, and I could not be happier with these.

Great insoles, best ever

Great arch support. Makes walking easier, less painful

You’ve done it! I’ve been using a pad but your footbed is so much better. Thank you!

My foot is happy hiking with this footbed. Been using it for a few weeks now and I have less pain and faster recovery.

Great for hiking shoes

I added these to my hiking shoes for a trip to Az and I didn’t have any foot pain the enture trip!

Helped with foot pain, support.

I use sole footbeds in all of my shoes.

Great footbeds

Relieved the pain

Best present I have given someone

Always have recommend Sole insoles for pain relief to all my family and friends. This pair was purchased for my cousin who LOVES them… immediate pain relief and support for nurse who works on feet all day!!

Immediate pain relief…

Wearing these insoles for years after luckily finding them during a search for plantar fascia pain relief. I currently have them in every shoe i wear daily (work, running/exercise, and casual)… best investment I have made for my feet and back

No more pain

Occasionally get metatarsal pain when on the bike for 2+ hrs. Got these for my primary cycling shoes when the medium thickness seemed to help in my ski boots and have had good results. Just to test, I wore a different pair of cycling shoes on one of my trainer rides and started to get the pain after 75 min. I went back to the shoes with the insoles and haven't looked back.

No more pain

I purchased these in an attempt to stop the occasional case of hotfoot I sometimes get after skiing 5-6 hrs. I was a bit skeptical when I received them. thinking the "pad" wouldn't have enough support to solve my problem. Well, I haven't had any pain since I put them in my boots in December. Very happy this past season with about 25 days on them.

My doctor recommended these to me

My doctor recommended that I use these to help with an Achilles injury that I’ve been facing. I’ve noticed almost an immediate difference. Pain has shift but in a good way. The soles product really has helped a good bit. Worth the investment.

Excellent for pain relief

Wearing the pads in all my shoes for over a year now and they are absolutely awesome.

All my shoes

I have been wearing the active medium met pads for over a year now and I wear them in all my shoes, including my dress shoes every day, shoes, and my golf shoes. They have helped my feet be pain-free and it is such a relief that they worked that well.

Amazing support

My orthopedic surgeon recommended these for my bunions and they have been so helpful! I no longer have pains AND can wear my dress shoes with added support!

Goodbye Foot Pain

Have used these footbeds for years - have them for walking shoes, dress shoes, and everyday shoes. Far superior than any I was able to buy.

Five AT Thru Hikes

I’ve used Sole insoles on dice complete hikes of the Appalachian Trail over the past ten years. I’ve never had a moment of foot pain in over 10.000 miles of backpacking. I recommend Sole insoles to everyone. I am a lifetime fan.

Pain relief

My arch fell and wife suggested I start wearing my insoles again. Forgot how comfy they are with great support.

helped with pain

I had pain in my foot and physio recommended this type and it helped

Great fit and durability

I have had a few pairs of Sole insoles, the thin ones are perfect for ski boots, cleats, and running racing shoes. I have yet to need to replace any of them, the ones in my ski boots have over 100 days of skiing and have saved me a lot of foot and calf pain. I have been recommending them to others over any other brand and overpriced custom-made insoles.

These are the ones to buy!

Love these soles! I've been wearing them in my work boots and my foot pain has disappeared. Now they're in my hiking boots, too! Wonderful!

Best Foot Beds

My PCP recommended Sole Footbeds to me 20 years ago for my running shoes to help relieve a case of painful plantar fasciitis. Within a month of using the footbeds the plantar fasciitis had healed. I was impressed enough that I bought a pair of the footbeds specific to each type of shoe that I wear — running, hiking, golf, street, and topsiders — and have continued to refresh them with new pairs every few years. Comfortable, effective, and supportive, I don’t wear shoes without them. No more plantar fasciitis.

Great for sneakers

Effective in reducing foot pain and comfortable in sneakers.

Excellent product

These footbeds are effective in reducing my child’s foot pain. The only issue was that they were purchased for her soccer cleats and they do not fit them but they do fit well in her sneakers. These are the second pair I have purchased for her. Great product.

Absolute comfort!

Using these for basketball shoes that were hurting my feet. Tried other generic insoles and almost gave up on relatively new shoes until I tried these SOLE ones. What a difference they have made! No pain and more energy in my movements.

Love them

I was recommended wearing these years ago, what a difference they have made. I’ve never dealt with foot pain like I have in the past. They are great.

Great footbeds

I’ve been wearing Sole flip flops for years so decided to try their footbeds. They fit great and have helped with my plantar fasciitis. The pain has gone away without the need for me to get expensive orthotics.

Every shoe has them

These cured my plantar fasciitis pain probably 20 years ago I’ve been using then since in every shoe even my running shoes.

You can’t go wrong with these foot pads!!

I have been wearing the performance thick with Met Pad for several weeks. I have already noticed I am having less pain in my legs

Foot beds

I have a son with injured feet and the SOLE foot beds allow him to walk mitigating pain and discomfort.

Pain is gone

I always buy these insoles , I walk 12-16 miles a day for work and these have saved my body along with prayer and Jesus Christ .

Cushion and support

Highly comfortable with the met pad being present but not intrusive providing good support. I have been wearing these in combat boots daily for flight operations and they have improved my foot fatigue and I believe have reduced chronic back pain because of the support they provide my feet and lower body.

Excellent foot beds

I buy the performance thick foot beds for my work shoes and I’m so happy with them , they are thin enough that my shoes don’t fit to tight but they are strong enough to provide support for my feet while standing all day , I had heal spurs but these foot beds have helped relieve that pain

Best footbed wear

I have been wearing Sole inserts for years. I have high arches and when I hike these have helped relieve pain. I would recommend.

Pain relievers

These insoles align my whole body making my foot and back pain go away. I am delighted I found Sole insoles!

Excellent for sports

My son loves these for tennis! Significantly reduced his pain.

Game changer for my feet.

I have had bad feet for many years. Sole insoles have made a miraculous difference in reducing the pain I have experienced in my feet. I won’t put on a pair of shoes without them.

Pain relief

I am happy to have eliminated most of my heel pain.

Best Support for Flat Feet

I've used the SOLE inserts for many years. Specifically, the red footed with white writing. They have provided the best long term support for my fallen arches and flat feet. Without these SOLE inserts I would experience pain in various locations to include my arch, achilles, and knee. Yes, they are expensive, but I have not found a more durable effective product.

Best footbeds ever

I have been using SOLE Met foot beds for about 6 months now as recommended by my podiatrist and I am back to my Jazzercise class (which is a lot of jumping and turning) and no more pain!!! I can go on long hikes again without pain. Thank you SOLE!!!!

Freedom and comfort regained!

These footbeds with metpad make all the difference, especially for sustained &/or strenuous activities like skiing, cycling and hiking. And no more pain from plantar fasciitis, period.

Comfortable and Supportive

High quality construction, perfect fit and great support for my arch pain. I can highly recommend.

They definitely make a difference

After playing soccer the first time with these insoles plantar fasciitis pain was reduced by about 60 %

Super comfy

I am impressed with the quality, comfort and style. I feel amazing when I wear them, my feet feel supported , free and without pain. I get a lot of looks from others, they are unique and I love them more than my running shoes. The cork insole offers excellent support. I was afraid because I wear a size 11 women’s and size 11 is a 9 men’s I was worried they would fit on the larger size - but in fact they are a tiny bit short (maybe I just have longer toes toes than most people). I also love they are made of wool, my most favourite material! Keep up the great work!

Ordered 3 more pair…immediately

Got my first pair of footbeds a few weeks ago, and I immediately ordered more. Best insole I’ve ever had. Spent hundreds on custom orthotics, and they don’t even come close to the comfort and pain relief I get from Sole.

Pain relief!

Wow! Finally I have found an insole that works. I’ve spent hundreds of dollars on custom orthotics, that never provided relief. I was skeptical, but as I researched the brand and footbeds - I thought I’d take a chance. Could they really be that good? Well, they are! I work on my feet 8-10 hours a day, and my pain is down 50% and I have more energy after work since my feet aren’t screaming in agony.

Feedback on Performance Thin with Met Pad, Men's 9 / Women's 11 | Final Sale

I bought these to help with plantar fasciitis, but they didn't help at all. Rather they actually led to more foot, knee, and hip pain.

Best insole ever

Insoles are durable and really help reduce foot pain. I hike 5-6 miles a day and couldn't do it without my Sole insoles. Met pad works well and holds up well to long term wear and use.

I can walk without pain again!

I developed a metatarsal problem in my right foot and my podiatrist recommended SOLE Meta foot beds for this problem. They work so well I have them in every pair of shoes I own. I purchased the thin Meta pads for my dress shoes. Thank you SOLE for such a great product!

Best footbeds ever

I have been wearing these for years, so when my husband and sons started having back issues and knee pain, I knew just what they needed. We are a family who all wear these Sole footbeds and we have never looked back. Thank you for making such a great product that doesn’t cost $300. From a customer for life!!!

I LOVE my SOLE!

Ive been using them for years and they provide such confort! I can stand or walk for long periods of time without any pain during or after. Thank you!

Transforming.

I had a lot of discomfort walking or running more than a few miles prior to using these insoles. Now I can get out there and enjoy myself for the entire day pain free. Better than surgery for sure.

SOLEs

I bought my first pair of footbeds. And I love them I can work all day with no pain. I walk all day on cement floors.

Very Comfortable

I have flat feet which can lead to pain around my feet and ankles if I do not have arch support. I wear these footbeds every day when I am walking around my home. Rather than wear shoes, I opt to put these footbeds in a pair of snug fitting socks for arch support. They are extremely comfortable and I no longer have any pain. As an added bonus, they are a fraction of the price that I have paid for customer orthotics and are more comfortable.

Love them

Right from the minute I put them on I noticed the difference. No more pain across ball of my foot . I also like the high arch support. I have since bought 2 more pairs

Love these

Bought these to go in my flatter shoes and they helped a lot with foot pain

My son love them

I bought them for my son and he's happy he no longer feels pain when running

Solid feel

Upon the advice of a racing ski coach, I decided to give these a try. I have no pain issue with my low arch feet and I had been skiing with my Striders for 4 years with the stock flat insole without any arch support. It took one turn with the SOLE performance thins to immediately feel the difference. Crisper, quicker edge control and the feel of a more solid platform. Such a simple upgrade for a significant improvement made me decide to try the active line in my runners, hikers and work boots. I've used the active wide medium and thin in my runners, and I like them a lot. With a gradual increase of running time approach, the integration was easy.

So worth the price

I would never consider not using SOLE footbeds in any of my shoes. Been using for at least a decade. They make a huge difference in both confort for walking and reduced back pain.

Great product to relieve lower back pain

I walk our dogs nearly five miles every day, and these SOLE products have been a game changer in terms of allowing this activity to greatly reduce or totally eliminate lower back pain. Worth every penny!

No more aching feet

I have been wearing these in all my footwear for over a year now. My feet used to ache all day and very painful when I got out of bed in the morning. I am pleased to say that pain has ended for me now. I am very pleased with the results.

Best footbeds I have ever used.

No more foot pain!

Love these foot beds.

I have been using these foot beds for years. Finally no foot pain!

Amazing footbeds… super comfortable

Bought them for my husband after his podiatrist suggested that we buy these footbeds to help relieve his archilles tendonitis pain. He loves them and finds them super comfortable.

Great support

I have these foot beds on all my shoes and boots ( even my house slippers). The relief from the pain of my plantar fascitis keeps me going otherwise I can barely walk.

Great for dress shoes

I love these in shoes too small for bulkier footbeds like dress shoes. Provide same pain relief from plantar fasciitis.

Great footbeds

I have these footbeds in all my footwear, only effective way to relieve my plantar fasciitis pain for a fraction of the price of the professionally custom insole. These SOLE footbeds provide better relief at a reasonable price and I don’t have to keep moving them from shoes to shoes since I can afford several pairs.

Excellent foot relief

These are the best footbeds for foot pain relief.

Great for Work Sneakers

I wear size 16 shoes and am over 300 lbs. These have been great at helping me with my foot pain and have gotten me more active. These "medium" footbeds are in my work shoes shoes, which are currently New Balance running shoes, and I'm very happy with them.

Great for Big Feet and Heavy Bodies

I wear size 16 shoes and am over 300 lbs. These have been great at helping me with my foot pain and have gotten me more active. These "thick" footbeds are in my basketball shoes and I'm very happy with them.

Amazing footbeds

I have extremely wide feet and have been suffering from knee pain during and after pregnancy. These footbeds (wide) fit my feet, are extremely comfortable and help to alleviate my knee pain. Highly recommend!

No Fear!

Having be plagued with chronic foot pain, due to a fallen arch, I was willing to try anything. While visiting Staunton, VA I stopped in Wilderness Adventures where SOLE products were sold. I put the footbeds in my Keen boot that day and felt instant relief. Now I have "No Fear" of going on hikes, playing Senior Softball, or just walking around in general thanks to my SOLE footbeds.

Eases plantar fasciitis

Daughter uses the in both her spikes and cleats. Resolves the constant pain and allows her to run, twist, and jump pain free

Solving My Problem

I have been wearing them for a few months and they are keeping my feet happy, no pain. I have never worn footbeds before but my feet are changing as I age.

Feedback on Active Medium, Men's 10 / Women's 12

This footbed is great, it has soothed my back pain after use. I use it in different shoes.

Great product, much less pain

I have chronic pain in my right foot as well as pain from having flat feet. I now use these in the shoes I wear most often and my feet only hurt once in a while now. So much better than any footbed I’ve ever purchased.

footbed review

I ordered these to help with fallen arches that led to lateral foot corn/ callus development and pain on my left foot with running. I was limiting my running because of this. I used the footbed finder tool and ordered these based on the recommendation. I trimmed them a little to fit into my shoes. It took a couple of months to break them in so that they were comfortable. Now they work well for supporting my foot and I'm back to long distance runs! These are great and have moved them into new shoes without any problem.

Needed some support!

I have high arches and many years ago wore custom made orthotics, which were very expensive. I have also tried Dr Scholl's arch supports that you can buy at most stores. They hurt my feet quite a bit. So far, SOLE supports have been great. I have been using them for several weeks now. I ordered 1 pair that I am trading out between the shoes I wear for work. I do a lot of walking and standing at my job and these arch supports are doing great to alleviate the heal pain I was having.

Great fit

I love this brand of footbeds, my feet pains have gone. This is my third pair and they give my shoes comfort as well as longevity as my shoe footbeds last longer.

Best footbeds ever

My foot pain is gone after putting these in my work shoes. Now I am buying more for my other shoes for convenience.

Great product, I would not be walking well without these! Used these for years now and love them!

I am a veteran and without these footbeds, I would be in much more pain and not walking much at all.

Great foot bed

I really like my foot beds Had issues with my arches, lots of pain and these beds made the pain go away.

Best product

SOLE footbeds have been a mainstay for the past ten years and I stopped having issues with my feet and heels. They have really allowed me to do things I could no longer do without having pain

Comfort

I've been wearing them for 10km walks and my feet not longer get metarsalgia pain They get more comfortable through break in.

My go to foot bed

I've been wearing them for 10km walks and my feet not longer get metarsalgia pain They get more comfortable through break in.

Great pain for pain relief

Wearing them in my hiking boots. I am way less tired and way less pain in my knees, hips and back

Great for pain relief

Wearing them daily for 8 hours in my work shoes. It helps relieve my knee, hip and back pain to the point where it’s on some days nonexistent.

Have These in Evrything!

The SOLE footbeds worked better for me than custom orthotics! Foot pain is gone.

I'm thinking about cutting my feet off less

Prior to getting these footbeds from SOLE, I was thinking pretty regularly about chainsawing my feet off due to the discomfort of a collapsed arch on one side. I don't know what the plan was...it would probably feel worse to have no feet and be walking around on bloody stumps. Still, the brain kept thinking ok feet, you had your chance and this is what you did with your life, time to die. My doctor said to try these out and see how it went. I'm still not a feet person, but at least I'm not a chainsaw my feet person thanks to the comfort and support I'm getting from SOLE. They have legitimately allowed my corpse to heal, and the foot pain I had has faded, and now I'm just left with all my other problems.

Love these footbeds!

I’ve worn SOLE in my running shoes and my every day shoes for over ten years. I used to have arch issues (plantar fasciitis). The SOLE's have been a big help in keeping my feet pain free!

Pain Reliever

I had Plantar Faucitis and the SOLE footbeds resolved and eliminated the pain after one week of wearing them. I play tennis 8-10 hours per week and these insoles are incredibly comfortable. I am a believer and promoter!

Sole Foot Orthotics are life changing!

I visited my podiatrist hoping he would order custom orthotics for me. I've had lower back pain, while walking, for years. My Doctors examined my issues and, it was his opinion that I don't need expensive custom orthotics but could find relief from back pain with SOLE orthotics. I ordered them and do not leave home without them!!

Great footbeds

My husband uses these for everyday wear to support his feet and try to reduce pain in his feet. They are comfortable and wear well. Would highly recommend!

They help tremendously with foot pain

I added these to a flat soled sneaker that offered no arch support and I can now wear them comfortably! They are even thin enough where the close fitting shoes does not feel too tight.

Excellent foot relief product

This product has changed my life walking without back pain. Thank you.

Active Thin with Met

These fit nicely into my training shoes without lifting my heel too high in my shoe's heel cup. They fit than my $700 orthotics and with the "Met" fit it reduces my metatarsalgia pain. I will buy more.

Great footbeds

These footbeds have help remove the pain in my feet

Perfect Footbeds!!

Been using these footbeds in my gym/running shoes for a few weeks now and all I can say is WOW! These are game changers! Great feel, super comfortable and best of all, zero foot pain after those 5km runs!

Only Brand I Use!!!

I've always had issues with foot pain being very flat footed and SOLE footbeds were recommended to me by a family member. I went to my local Mark's store and grabbed a pair, close to 20 years ago, and have never looked back. This has been the only brand I've used since. I'm not particularly happy that Mark's no longer carries this brand as I do like to shop locally but the brand they carry now just doesn't compare to SOLE. Do yourself a favour and order a pair! I guarantee that you will not be disappointed!

The metpad is amazing!

Use these in my Hoka walking shoes d/t pain and numbness and it helps immensely, leaving me feeling more stable on my feet. Takes a little bit of getting used to, but now it’s uncomfortable without the added support.

Awesome footbeds

Started wearing these for plantar fasciitis and greatly helped with pain! I wear these at work and at the gym and haven't had any pain since. Highly recommend!

Your foot problems melt away!

I have planter faciatis 15 years ago. And one foot had some nerve zinging.(once in a while pain between 2 toes) Bought custom inverts and they didn’t get rid of my problems. Went to REI and the shoe sales person said try these. Felt great in the store….. so I bought them. I have them in every shoe. I don’t go anywhere with out them. I’m an avid Pickleballer. These will change you stride and quicken your step. Totally worth in price($500 custom vs. $60) Let your foot problems melt away. Buy the Active Thick today. I wear 7-71/2 size shoe. Size up to W8.

Great for planters

These have alleviate pain. Very helpful

Decent Footbeds

I've been wearing them for over a few months and I find that I can go on longer walks without experiencing pain at the bottom of my feet. They are comfortable and my feet feel well-supported! I'm a size 7.5W and the size 8 I got fits me.

Best footbeds EVER

Love these footbeds- don’t leave the house without em. They really balance me out and alleviate ankle/knee pain I used to have. Thank you SOLE!

Knees don’t hurt.

Using these arch supports almost instantly relieves my knee pain.

Best for avid walker

I have walking 4-6 miles a day for many years. I started having foot pain. These footbeds have helped me so much. I highly recommend them.

Such A Relief!

Initially I purchased my first pair of SOLE inserts at Wilderness Adventures in Staunton, VA with the hope the inserts will lessen heal and arch pain. The inserts did, thus I have now purchased several more pairs of these inserts, so I did have to continually do shoe insert swapping. Great product, great customer service, and most of all a reasonable price.

Best ever

Helps lessen the pain in walking

Great for dress shoes

I was leary of the thin pads but I purchased a pair anyway, they fit great in my dress boots and I have no pain when walking. I would recommend these pads to anyone who has metatarsil foot pain.

Best footbeds EVER

I have been using these footbeds for about 3 months now. They have changed my life. I had tried several other brands of metatarsil footbeds previously but nothing really worked for me, I was in constant pain. I am now back to my normal life, I do my Jazzercise classes without pain, walk the dog without pain. These inserts have been a lifesaver for me.

Amazing fit and improved comfort

Bought the performance thin with met pad for my ski boots.I needed something that would not take up to much room and help support my arches while skiing. I had purchased a set of the performance thins with met for my cycling shoes, that I have been using for 6 months. So I bought a set for my ski boots. I have skiied in them for 5 days and have felt relief in foot pain from day two.

Best footbed ever

Very comfortable and relives the pain

Excellent

Feels good for my foot pain!

Footbeds

I have been using footbeds for about 12 years now. They aways do the job of being comfortable and relieving foot pain

The best insoles

These are the only insoles that I use. After trying several brands, sole insoles are the best. I use these specifically for my running shoes. I run anywhere from 5-13 miles a week and these last about 4-6 months. These help alleviate pain I have from my flat feet. Will continue to repurchase.

Love these footbeds

I have been bothered by foot and heel pain for years. All that has improved since I started using SOLE insoles. I LOOK FORWARD to putting my shoes in the morning!

Best company

This company has the best customer service! And of course an amazing product. I been running and hiking with the footbeds for years . But now that I am way in my 60’s they are also a way to manage foot pains . I highly recommend them !

Exceptional support

I have issues with my feet that cannot be rectified with surgery and a podiatrist has not been able to make an instep that i can wear, but he did recommend SOLE and I am so grateful; I can walk for longer with less pain, I have fitted out two set of shoes so far and will continue to do so. I bought my second pair of SOLE's directly from the company and the service and delivery time was superb. Thanks again SOLE.

Best footbeds I've found!

SOLE footbeds have eliminated the shoe discomfort and foot pain I've lived with for years. I can now wear a pair of shoes all day and my feet feel great.

Worked like the doctor said it would

Footbeds fit in all my shoes and relieved foot pad pain.

Excellent orthotic foot support

I used these for the last few years to relieve plantar fasciitis pain. They provide excellent cushioning for my soles and high arches. They are the only ones who provide this level of support over a long period of time.

Met Pad footbed surprisingly comfortable

Purchased for my daughter who has very high arches and was injured (tendonitis in her arch), but didn't know if the Met Pad would be uncomfortable compared to the regular foot bed. She loves them. They provide extra support, help with pain relief, and are totally comfortable for everyday use.

Awesome footbed

I've been wearing SOLE footbeds for years. I've tried others but they just don't compare. I have plantar fasciitis. These help with heel pain and have great arch support. They also last a long time due to their construction. Highly recommend

Almost perfect

Probably the most comfortable and supportive footbed I have ever tried. I work on my feet all day and these have eliminated most of my foot problems. Only issue is the squeak that occurs sometimes, usually fixed with a little powder but I haven’t had the issue with the thick ones. I would still highly recommend this for anyone with plantar/ misc foot pain. I bought my wife a pair as she has suffered from plantar fasciitis for years and she has noticed a huge improvement.

Best for roomy shoes

I have been using these for about a month now along with the medium version, these are great if you have the space for them. The medium version is probably more versatile but these are the most comfortable. Had to move to the thinner profile of the medium temporarily as a cold snap has necessitated thick socks, although the thick footbeds do a great job of insulating underfoot. Was having plantar pain until I switched to this brand and no longer having issues.

So great for hiking

I have some great hiking boots, but they insoles they came with are as flimsy as a piece of paper. I found that the soles of my feet would hurt after long hikes, so I tried these. I have wide feet so I need a footbed that's fit to a wide arch. These worked great out of the box. My feet feel supported and cushioned, and I no longer have pain after hiking. I bought two pairs to keep in both pairs of hiking boots. They do get better with use too, as they mold to your feet. I also liked SOLE's great customer service when I ordered two pairs to figure out the sizing and one was too small. They really do run true to size!

Life Saver. A must have

I'm a Union electrician and im on my feet all day. Some jobs i rack up 5+ miles a day. I've been using SOLE footbeds in my work boots for 10+ years. Really made a difference with fatigue. I have high arches and the SOLE footbeds have been a game changer. I recommend them to all the tradesmen I've ever heard complain about foot pain. Most if them I run into down the road have also become repeat customers.

Old feet feel young again

After heat forming I found a pain relief I haven't felt for years. Nice to be pain free after Pickleball.

Amazing

Spent eight hours in ski boots with them yesterday with no pain in feet. Still getting used to them but great so far!!!

Bunions and flat feet

I wear these in my hockey skates and it makes a huge difference and off loads pain on my bunions and provides the perfect level of arch support

worth trying

I bought these for my wife ... she has started to get Planar fasciitis ... My advice was to try various footbeds and see what works. These are very well made and offer a great choice in styles and fit. The cork and plastic offer two distinct functions ... and they are helping with foot pain. The Met Pad is an interesting option as it has a bump under the arch rather than adding to padding in the fore foot. I've long had issues with my feet as I do lots of long and extreme off trail hiking. My wife walks every day on trails around town. This is the first time she has had problems with her feet my advice was to try shoes and arches until she got relief. Also to slow down until there was zero pain. Your feet should not hurt when you walk. Good shoes ... even better good boots ... and good footbeds can help. the problem is there is a bit too many design options out there. The SOLE's are a good place to start with footbeds.

Best foot beds I have ever used!

I have a bone spur on my metatarsal joint and lots of pain when walking. I am now using SOLE footbeds, after having tried several other good brands. The SOLE footbeds have the best support, my pain is almost completely gone - I can even go for long walks and do my exercise class without having to stop because of the pain.

Pain-free Arches

I've been wearing Active Medium footbeds for years and love them. I have very high arches and these are the only footbeds that have been able to support them. I wear them in my running shoes as well as in my Crocs! I recently decided to try a pair of Active Medium in Wide because my new running shoes have a wider toe box and I was starting to develop a callous on the side my big toe from the small gap in between the footbed and the shoe. The Active Medium Wides fit perfectly in my new running shoes and I have no more big toe irritation. I'd definitely recommend trying these footbeds.

Active Medium Met Pad

The SOLE met pads were recommended to me by a fellow golf enthusiast who understood the pain that I was feeling in my feet as I have plantar fasciitis. I am so glad that they were recommended to me as he had similar problems. I now have a met pad SOLE in every pair of shoes and boots that I wear. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who has difficulty with foot pain as I have.

Saved my feet!

I have been wearing these footbeds for a few weeks a now and they are amazing. It is very hard to find anything that does not give me foot pain and I was so very happy to find these.

Fixed my knee pain

I've been wearing these SOLEs for over 5 years after my physiotherapist recommended to use insoles for flat feet. These footbeds are very durable (still have and use he ones from 5 years ago) and comfortable. No more knee pain and flat fleet. My footbeds didn't take long to naturally mold to my feet shape. Highly recommend this brand.

Love these

They were instantly comfortable and have gotten better as I've worn them. They've really helped with ongoing pain in my foot and lower back.

Good pain relief

These provided good pain relief but take up a fair amount of space in athletic shoes. They elevated the center of gravity of the shoe and made it unstable. I switched them to some boots with much better results and put thin footbeds in my athletic shoes.

Relieved my foot pain

I had 2 years of pain in the outside of my forefoot and spent too much money on shoes which did not help. My insurance rejected a claim for custom orthotics and I tried some SOLE footbeds. They provided excellent pain relief for full days on my feet on hard surfaces. I would highly recommend trying them.

Great Product

I purchased this pair of footbeds to replace my previous worn out pair or SOLE footbeds. I was having ball of foot pain and these footbeds with the Met Pad solved the pain issue! Great products!

Great Product

I had pain on the ball of my foot after long periods of wearing my normal SOLE footbeds. I purchased this new pair with the Met Pad and my pain went away. Definitely worth the money.

Best everyday footbed

I have been wearing these in my daily work shoes for the last year and they have been a lifesaver. I walk about 4 miles a day at work alone and can go home with no foot/body pain now!

My favorite footbeds!

These were recommended by my foot doctor. My feet had been starting to hurt in all of my shoes. I haven't had pain when using these and now wear them all of the time. Love them!

Great support and comfort

I’ve worn these for several weeks and my foot pain has disappeared. They add support and yet are still ‘soft’ and comfortable. Great value compared to custom orthotics and in many ways they are better.

Pretty good arch support

I like the arch support compared to alot of other insoles I've purchased. Orthotics on a budget. Would like a tad bit more arch support as my right foot is pretty flat and painful.

Perfect footbeds for metatarsal support

I've been wearing SOLE footbeds for 20 years and the Active Thin with Met Pad are my favorite! I have a lot of feet pain and these help me the most.

Best foot support

I had so much pain in toes , and with the SOLE active met pad, the pain is gone.

Pain Relief

I developed plantar fasciitis to the point I was unable to walk without a severe limp and was considering using crutches to get around. My wife suggested SOLE footbeds like she got after her knee surgery. Now I can walk with minimal discomfort. If I go without the footbeds for as little as an hour the terrible pain returns then the footbeds give instant relief as soon as I am back on them. Great product!

Foot beds

I have used this product for quite a long time and usually walk about 10 kilometres a day with zero foot pain. I would highly recommend this product

Closest thing to a custom footbed

I was having issues with pronation, and my podiatrist recommended these footbeds. I was training for a marathon and having Achilles tendonitis. These footbeds immediately got rid of pain and were thin enough to go in my running shoes without making my foot numb. I have them in four shoes now and they working great!

Plantar pain relief

Several months of painful plantar problem finally resolved with these footbeds referred by my daughter. Tried 2 pair of mediums to start and now just ordered 5 pr, including 1 thin and 1 thick, so that all my shoes are ready to go without switching around. Have a pr for my slippers too!

Really helps!

I have a Morton’s neuroma and usually get burning pain in the balls of my feet after walking or wearing certain shoes. I tried the performance thin with met pads with one of my shoes and it was a game changer. I was having pain after 15 minutes of wearing the shoes. With the footbed, I can walk for hours without pain! Really incredible! I highly recommend. I just wish I got them a long time ago.

Best Location

I have metatarsal pain in my left foot and my PT gave me a pad to put under the sock liner. I couldn’t seem to find just the right spot to place it but these footbeds take the guesswork out. Now I just slip on my shoes and run without having to readjust the pad.

Great foot beds

I’ve had major injuries to both of my feet from a fall. After 11 surgery’s I’ve been trying everything from custom made foot beds to over the counter ones. So far the SOLE foot beds are my favorite ones less pain and can make it through the day at work. My Surgeon suggested that I try these am glad I did. Will definitely buy more!!!

Relieved My Pain Immediately

I am a senior and enjoy my daily walks but I had started to develop some pain on the bottom of my foot. The doctor recommend SOLE footbeds, and I tried them and my pain immediately went away. The SOLE product was easy to slip into my shoes (I bought several pairs lately) and I am very happy with the results.

fixed ankle pain in my cycling shoes

These were comfy sitting to my shoes that have silver the pains I was experiencing.

World of Difference!

I started wearing these when I had a bad case of plantar fasciitis a number of years ago. They really do the trick, providing the arch support I need. I recently developed a bone spur in one heal and I turned to SOLE, hoping to find something that would alleviate some of the pain. They did not disappoint, the cork SOLEs are a blessing!

Helped relieve pain from plantar fascitis

A friend recommended this product and it delivered as expected -- the footbed is thin and firm and is very comfortable in my sneakers. I've had quite a bit of relief from pain since I've been using the footbed.

Best footbed ever.

Following an injury many years ago I was left with one leg shorter than the other. I tried "approved" orthotics but nothing worked to give me back an upright posture. Since wearing just one medium footbed my posture is the best its been for 10 years, not only is my posture better but the constant pain I was feeling has diminished accordingly.!!

Flat feet feeling better

I am hypermovile, and my feet flattened a bit from pregnancy. The footbeds have reduced the pain in my feet significantly.

Best footbed for High Arches

I have tried multiple inserts over the years and these are the best. I have high arches and arthritis in the front of my feet so I need the arch support along with a stiff foot bed and SOLE is the answer to my constant foot pain. Love both the cork and the plastic models...

Solid

Excellent footbeds that alleviate foot pain and help align my ankles/knees. They become more comfortable with prolonged use as they break in, and the amount of different footbed options means there is a pair for every occasion and shoe.

Amazing !!!

Relief for plantar fasciitis. I suffer from severe plantar fasciitis. Usually after 5 minutes of wearing the wrong footwear I am I agony. I have custom orthotics in my work boots but it is annoying to have to swap them every day. These footbeds allow me to wear whatever footwear I want for as long as I want, from runners to hikers without any pain at all. These truly are life-changing.

Outstanding product!

I’ve been using these foot beds for several years now, and will rarely athletic shoes without them. I originally chose them to relieve the pain from planters fasciitis, but soon found that they offered a degree of comfort, not found in any other foot bed I’ve tried, and I have tried many. On top of this they are durable. I’m still using one pair purchased several years ago in my daily work shoes. You cannot go wrong with them

Best SOLE's ever!

I wear my footbeds everyday for work . My back and knees get great support! No pain! I bought another pair for my every day shoes.

Metatarsal Pain

I managed to irritate the metatarsals in my left foot just at the end of a long run. I’m in the middle of marathon training and can’t afford to take weeks off from running. These footbeds have enabled me to keep running without pain.

Relief!!!

Relief from foot pain caused by flat feet with bunions! My new go to orthotics make walking possible again!!! I appreciate the variety of widths too!

Great Medium footbed

This is my go to! This foodbed is a must for comfort, stability, and relief from foot pain!

Met pad great

These support the middle of my foot and relieve arch pain, esp when I'm exercising. Used to get this tearing feeling at the bottom of the arch of my foot that this helps to support.

Comfortable and long lasting

I use these in all my shoes including running shoes, lifting shoes and work boots. They are so comfortable and have really helped keep my feet from anymore pain and have decreased my heel pain by a lot especially on long runs

Helps my heel pain

These footbeds are FANTASTIC! I have them in multiple pairs of shoes. They have really helped eliminate my heel pain.

Great footbeds

Bought these a few months ago and they have been a great relief of for pain when running

Helpful, but take getting used to

These are pretty harsh on your feet when you first start wearing them. They are not very comfortable at all, and I am pretty active/on my feet all day. I was told they would be good for someone with an active job like me and help me with my ankle strength, but not sure if the pain is worth it..

Wonderful

I put these in my house slippers to help with pain - they are wonderful. So comfortable I hardly know they are there.

Amazing

I was in a car accident where my foot was damaged. Pain is an everyday thing. These SOLE footbeds were recommended so I tried them. They are amazing! I have way less pain. My husband also tried them, in his work boots, and could not believe how wonderful they are.

Great Footbeds

I’ve been wearing these footbeds for about a month, I have Morton’s Neuroma, they have really helped with the pain I had been experiencing.

Excellent in my safety shows

Wearing these now for several weeks. Typically trying to find different insoles to help with side achi g feet at end of day walking in concrete. These we t straight in and have given my feet a new lease on life. No aching or foot pain at the end of the day iw. Highly recommend the thick metpad footbeds.

Performance and pain improved

Started using these footbeds and felt instant relief. Great product!

Definitely will buy again

I was recommended these by my therapist after my second ankle replacement. I have history of severe trauma to my ankle and have had issues with shoes for a long time. These footbeds are the best I’ve ever had. My feet are comfortable, supported and I experience no pain when I’m wearing them. I currently have them in my work boots. I plan to purchase them for my tennis shoes as well. The heat mold process was very simple also. Very happy with this product.

Truly Amazing Footbeds

I’ve been wearing these for several weeks now and have noticed a tremendous difference. I am a consistent walker on the golf course and my feet used to be so sore after 18 holes until I started wearing these! The first round of golf I wore them, they were a little stiff because they had to mold to my feet. I did not opt for the oven molding method. Despite them being just a little stiff, I had zero foot pain after my first round of golf wearing these! I have a flat foot and the arch support these provide is awesome. My feet haven’t hurt since I started wearing these! They easily swap in and out between shoes, and the ability to cut the footbeds to match your OEM footbeds is super easy and convenient. Highly recommend for anyone that experiences any pain in their feet!

Amazing Product

I ordered my first pair of SOLE footbeds with the Met Pad to relieve some foot pain I was experiencing. Very quickly my symptoms were resolved and I promptly ordered another 3 pairs to go in my other shoes. Highly recommend these to anyone looking to level up their footwear!

Doing the job well!

I’ve been wearing these in sneakers for a few weeks and have noticed quite a difference in terms of knee pain when I run! They also fit well in the future, sometimes insoles mess up where your ankle meets the top of the shoe, but these keep everything at the right elevation. My podiatrist gave me other insoles that also worked well but since they were made of synthetic materials I went looking for something more sustainable! Cork is great for a footbed because it’s anti microbial and in general I want to keep chemical-heavy synthetic products away from my skin and places, like feet, where I sweat! I’d love for SOLE to start remaking their cork flip flops (which are great too!) in a more cushioned version. Consider this a customer request :)

Super comfy

These footbeds are super comfy. Came exactly as described. The heat molding is perfect and there was zero transition period getting used the them. They felt amazing right from the first use and I would say my general foot pain has decreased since wearing them

Love these footbeds

I have falling arches that come with a lot of foot and low back pain and these have been the only footbeds that have ever relieved that pain.

Amazing footbeds

After 9 months of having plantar fasciitis I experienced excruciating pain in the outside ball of my feet. I purchased a pair of SOLE footbeds with met pad and voila, the pain stopped and I was able to walk without pain. I now have SOLE footbeds in all my shoes including sneakers, hiking shoes, and work boots. Amazing product, Amazing company

Have a pair in each of my shoes and boots

I love these footbeds. I have a pair for each of my shoes and boots. My feet are pain free and happy!

Amazing footbeds

I got these a few weeks ago and they've made such a difference in my sneakers! I no longer have foot pain or foot fatigue.

Much less pain!

I have suffered with frequent foot pain for years and only recently did I learn that it was because of my lack of foot arches. I got these as soon as I learned that there was a solution and now my feet hardly ever hurt!

Comfortable footbeds

These footbeds seem great so far. I have been having foot/ ankle pain and was looking for a footbed to help. The foot pain seems good when I use these, the ankle pain not so much but I'm thinking it is stemming from a different issue. Good quality, comfortable footbeds that look like they will hold up to daily wear. I will definitely get another pair one day for my boots :)

Helped my husband's Flat feet

My husband uses the footbeds for his dress shoes in the office and switches them to his steel toe boots for the shop. It took a bit for him to get used to because of his flat feet but gradually his back, knees, and calves pain started to decrease. He's going to buy another pair for his runners. He has size 9.5 in shoes and bought size 9 footbeds. Fits perfectly. I highly recommend.

Orthotic relief

These footbeds have helped lessen the pain in my foot. Much appreciated.

Amazing!!!

I'm a nurse and work 12s. I also am a larger sized human who struggles with foot pain daily. A decade ago my foster mom gave me a set of SOLE footbeds for sports and I loved them. So about 6 months ago I found these old footbeds and tried them for my work shoes, desperately seeking relief from the agony. To my amazement these helped immensely with my foot pain!! However because those footbeds were 10 years old, they stunk to the high heavens and I was told I was not allowed to keep my shoes and footbeds if I wanted to be allowed in the house. Nevertheless I set off to purchase a new set of SOLEs!! These have been AMAZING since they arrived at my house, I have loved them so much I've been swapping them into every shoe (including moccasins) to provide me comfort. I have recommended these to coworkers because it is a constant struggle to work 12 hour shifts while hobbling in pain. Thank you for making it so I don't quit my job.

Awesome Footbeds!

I have been wearing these for several months now. I have nothing but good things to say. When I purchased them, I was having some heel pain, and from the first day I have worn these the pain is gone. I use these in my every day, shoes and another pair for my running shoes. I’m a physical therapist and I’ve told many of my family and friends about these. Love your product!

The met pad is my savior

Took it running ASAP. Foot pain was non existent during my run and after my run. The met pad did its job. Now if they could add in over supination pad to the footbed we would be golden and I’d order that to replace my entire line up of shoes

I loved mine so much I got a pair for my mom

I'm a huge fan of SOLE footbeds and my mom is on her feet all day and was getting back pain so picked up a pair for her to help with comfort. So far so good.

Smashingly good!!!

I've been suffering from heel pain and have to attend a trade show for work. I used a pair of these inside my shoes and it felt like I was walking on a cloud all day! Amazing!

Saviour is here

It would be an understatement to say that these saved my feet and legs. I took up running and had the worst shin splints. I tried every modification to technique that I could but it barely helped. I tried these footbeds and within a week I noticed a huge difference. As soon as the break in period was done I started to run without pain. Now with my body fully healed, I can run further and faster than ever without worry or concern of shin splints. My feet feel better, my legs feel amazing. I absolutely would recommend these to anyone, especially those who are running. Fantastic footbeds. Helpful note, make sure you know the shoes you’re putting them in. My running shoes did not fit the medium thickness footbeds, I had to go to the thin ones (these) in order to fit in my shoes properly.

Highly recommend SOLE footbeds

When I went to my orthopedist due to clicking then pain in my foot while walking he recommended SOLE with met pad. Since I've purchased these footbeds I wear them in my sneakers for walking and running, work boots and even my dress shoes. My feet just don't feel right if my shoe doesn't have a SOLE footbed in them. I started with 2 pairs and now have 1 in every sneaker, shoes and boots I own. Even purchased a few for my son. Highly recommend SOLE footbeds

Dr recommended, patient approved

My orthopedist recommended SOLE with the met pad when I started having clicking and pain in my foot while walking. Really glad he did. I've since started running again.

SOLE footbeds=happy feet

Discovered SOLE off Google a couple years ago. I have tried others including custom orthotics. Sure the customs work well, who the heck can afford those though ! I was skeptical, two days wearing SOLE and that was a game changer. I have low arches and plantar fasciitis. Some days it was very painful to walk. After wearing SOLE for two days I had minimal foot pain. It didn’t take very long for the pain to go away all together. I have also recommended these to friends and they prefer SOLE over everything else. Try a pair, you will not regret !

Very good footbed

I ordered a pair of these footbeds in the hopes of relieving my metatarsalgia which negatively affects many of my daily activities. I also ordered a pair of SOLE Active Medium with Metpad. AFAIK the only substantial difference between the two models is the footbed's bottom layer: the Performance bottom layer comprises cork embedded in a matrix whereas the Active bottom layer is EVA. If either of these footbeds didn't help me then my next course of action would have been very costly custom orthotics. Both Performance and Active models work as advertised. However, I find the Performance footbed molded to my feet better (I heat molded both) and feel more comfortable. Overall, I'm very pleased with these and the pain in my feet is slowly decreasing. It looks like I can skip the custom orthotics! I've ordered a pair of Performance Thick with Metpad for my work boots.

Perfect for my Skates

Fitted well in my skates, provided great comfort with no pain in the adjustment period

effective support

These SOLE footbeds really help relieve the pain in my feet due to arthritis and fallen arches. They allow me to walk more than I have in years.

lifesaver footbeds

Had been complaining of foot pain while working long shifts. these footbeds have been a complete lifesaver. fit well and have had great pain relief

Amazing product!

I am super happy with my SOLEs! I have slightly flat feet and tendency to overpronation. With SOLEs I can run long distances without pain, I even ran a full marathon in them wohooo :-) If I may add one small feedback: The footbeds are slightly narrow. I would love to buy one pair of wide footbeds with met pad (the met pad does not need to be larger as far as I am concerned). This way, the footbeds would fill in the even my looser fitting running shoes without leaving any gaps to the sides.

Very comfortable

I recently developed osteoarthritis throughout my feet. I use these footbeds in my indoor shoes and sometimes the arthritis pain goes away completely. They are extremely comfortable, debatably better than my custom orthotics.

Pain Solver

I had a plantar fascia injury and these footbeds helped dramatically in the pain reduction in my heel.

Sturdy support and pain relief

Other footbeds could provide the arch support that I needed, but then I ended up with pain in the balls of my feet. The Met Pad really helped alleviate that pain. These are my go-to footbeds for Achilles tendonitis now. They are pretty thick, I thought they my fit in my roomy On Clouds, but I had to go down to the Medium width. The thicks are perfect for my hiking boots, though!

Satisfied Customer

I love my new SOLE footbeds. Have only been using for a few weeks and have yet to experience knee pain due to over pronation.

Outstanding footbeds!

I've been wearing a pair of these for just on a year. I use the wide version in a pair of Altra road running shoes. It's really hard to find footbeds for the wide toe box shoes; I only needed to trim a little off the toe of the footbed to conform to the same size as the original in the shoe. The instructions were super simple & logical to get them perfectly sized. They take a little of the cushion/spring out of your shoe, but I can get through long runs with little to no foot pain. I have also noticed significant improvements in my knees and hips. Along with this replacement pair, I have bought a pair of the cork footbeds These footbeds are worth trying and cost a lot less than customized soles from a podiatrist.

So long, metatarsalgia!

During training for my first marathon, I began to experience metatarsalgia for the first time in my life (early 40s) on runs longer than 14 miles. I have not once experienced this pain since I purchased the footbed with met pad. I finished my marathon with not one ounce of foot, knee, or hip pain and I know these footbeds take a lot of the credit for that.

Really helped with pain

This was recommended by my physical therapist and they work.

Great if you have plantar fasciitis

I started using these after being diagnosed with plantar fasciitis and they have helped reduce some pain.

miracle !

my podiatrist recommended SOLE footbeds. my feet hurt so badly that I could hardly walk. I've worn these for 3 years now and have NO foot pain at all. would not hesitate to recommend SOLE !

Great product

My husband had struggled with pain in his feet these are by far the best footbeds

Great footbeds!

I love your products - they have made a huge difference in reducing the pain in my feet, and they are WAAAAYYYY cheaper than (my) orthotics and work just as well. I have them in every pair of shoes and boots that I own! They stand up very well - I am able to do running (5 - 10 km) again and cycling (50 km at a time). I am so very glad I found this website and tried them.

Like magic

These are great in work shoes with some room. I have the thin, medium, and a pair of these Active Thick, and these are the most comfortable. You def. need a shoe with some room, though. Since I put a SOLE footbed in all my shoes, my foot pain from plantar problems is gone.

Really Helps

I bought these footbeds at the recommendation of my doctor. They have helped my pain tremendously. The thick footbeds work best in my hiking boots. I have been wearing these a while now and have really noticed the difference when walking and hiking.

Great footbeds!

I cannot live without these footbeds. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and these have made it possible to live without pain!

Great footbeds

The seem to be all purpose footbeds, I believe they will fit pretty much any shoe/boot and help with foot pain etc. If you are waffling between these and the medium for a shoe, I don't think you can go wrong with them.

Very Helpful

In late August I experienced my first ever bout of Planter Faciitis in my right foot. After about two weeks of significant pain and some inquiries, I ordered SOLE footbeds. They have been a big part of my recovery, and I ordered two more sets of footbeds.

Love these

I need to use footbeds in my running shoes, and these are always a great product. Some of my children started experiencing foot pain when they started up cross country this year (my daughter started getting plantar facia pain from her Hey Dudes) and these solved their problem. It took a little bit to break their feet in- they had to pull them out after a few hours to give their feet a break, but after a week or two they were fine. We did not heat mold them but should have to speed up the process.

Fantastic footbeds.

They were very comfortable right out of the box and only got more so after wearing for a time. My knee pain had reduced significantly since using the SOLE footbed.

Great footbed!

Great bed for price

These been game changer for workouts. Without them to much pain to really work out to potential

Life Changer

Was having issues with feet that was restricting my work and my not work. Three weeks using the footbeds and I had no restrictions from the previous pain. Highly recommend them - better and cheaper than a doctor.

Best ever

After 40 years working all day on concrete floors these are the best thing ever made. what used to be 2-3 hours of sore feet everynight after work, my feet are in way less pain after using these footbeds. The first day was unbelievable and after a month of using them, i will never be without them in my shoes.

Saved an otherwise unusable shoe

I like it! These are the only footbeds I've tried that help my achilles pain on one side, as well as overall comfort for the other side. Highly recommended. They usually have to be trimmed to fit your shoes, as toes are different in every brand. I wear an 11.5 and buy a 12 to trim down. They are heat formable, but I don't usually do that, instead just breaking them in the old fashioned way by wearing. Seems to work ok. These are expensive at first, but once you get into their system they offer discounts occasionally. So it's good to have a back up pair. They have kept their heads and not "improved" them (ruined them, in other words), and I hope they never do! If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I'd rather pay more for the same thing than have it become useless. You won't find these just anywhere, like Amazon. Other brands wish they were this good.

Love these food beds!

I've been wearing these food beds for years now! I'm a teacher and on my feet all day, I buy the active thick and just love them. I have one for every pair of shoes and would not go without them now. They have really made a difference in my back and knee pain.

Great indoor!!!

The footbed is good for relieving pain on my feet. I stand and walk a lot, they give me proper arch support

Excellent foot beds

I was having a lot of problems with foot pain for some time and my physio suggested these and have been game changer

All day use

Been wearing for over a month in my everyday shoes at work and have helped relieve a lot of pain I used to get throughout the day.

No more pain

As a long time long distance runner, I'd started experiencing foot and leg pain. The DR and physio said it was over use, this was common among runners. Orthodics were prescribed but they are $500. I had to find a solution so i could run pain free, SOLE was the miracle I needed to get back to running, my zen! Thanks 😀

Best footbeds ever!!!

I’ve tried many for plantar fasciaitiis and metatarsal pain. Most footbeds don’t do both no one makes one as thin to fit in shoes better. The medium thickness good for tennis shoes. Absolutely the best

Best foot beds ever

I am flat footed and these foot beds give me so much pain relief and helps where the Dr's couldn't. The customer care was wonderful when I made a mistake and ordered the wrong size. They fixed my mistake and sent me the correct size, So we ordered a pair for our neighbor and he loves them also.

Perfect for my walking addiction

About 5 years ago I developed some hip and lower leg pain. I accidentally discovered SOLE in a sports store and have never looked back. This was my first pair of Active Thick and they are every bit as good as the Performance Thick I normally use. The cork molds to your foot quickly and provides the support I needed to avoid meds and/or physio - my walking is all the meds I need.

Best footbeds ever

These are in every pair of shoes I wear. They are so comfortable that it doesn't feel right if they are not in the shoe. These have given me back the ability to walk without pain

Best footbeds ever

These fit perfectly in husband's dress shoes and wears them whenever he has the shoes on. It has given him the ability to walk pain free

Game changer

I've had 2 accidents and walking/being on my feet was very painful. I wear these everyday and my knee pain is gone.

Cushiony but firm!

My son has tried various brands and forms of inserts due to his flat feet caused pain. He was surprised how firm the support is yet very ‘cushiony’ for his long walks in school activities.

Better Than Orthotics That Were 5 Times The Price

Very comfortable and these were far more effective in eliminating my foot pain than my previous orthotics which cost five times more than these footbeds.

Best footbed.

I play tennis in these 2-3 times a week and they have reduced my hip pain and recovery time after and during matches.

Happy customer

I ordered a pair hoping to help with foot pain, and they delivered! I'm very happy with these footbeds and I will be buying more pairs for other footwear.

Great Pain Relief

These footbeds are comfortable and fit easily into my shoes. They provide great cushioning and comfort.

Thank you SOLE

Been wearing for a month now in my work boots. I have plantars fasciitis and my $500 custom orthotics cause too much pain to use. SOLE has saved me, allowing me to continue to work with way less pain. I'll be getting another pair to wear outside of work.

Great!

Helps relieve foot pain caused by standing for long time.

Great Footbeds- they are the only ones I will buy

I have worn these for two weeks and the pain in my feet has began to go away. these are excellent footbeds and great quality.

Really great quality

Shipping was very fast. I wear these at work on my feet for 8 to 10 hrs and no issues. My body isn't in as much pain prior to getting these. I highly recommend getting at least one pair!

Great footbeds

I have been walking with horrible pain in my feet for years. These footbeds have done wonders for me!

Great footbeds

I’ve been using these for a year since developing plantar fasciitis after a hike. I’m a teacher and on my feet all day, these, along with stretches, have helped get the pain under control. FYI- I noticed a little squeak when I walked in these at first - putting powder in your shoe bed under the footbed stops it.

Amazing footbeds Helped Me Heal

I sprained my ankle many years ago & re-sprained the same ankle badly again in 2022. My food doctor recommended custom orthotics & physio. As I was unable to afford the custom orthotics he suggested that I try SOLE footbeds for my shoes and to wear them inside as well as outside. I was absolutely amazed at the difference the SOLE footbeds made for me & within a few months I was no longer in constant pain when walking. I was so impressed that I bought pairs of SOLE's for my husband & son as gifts.

Pain free running!

I highly recommend SOLE as a long time and long distance runner! Started to experience severe pain in my feet and shin, to the point that it was keeping me from running. But thanks to SOLE footbeds I am no longer experiencing foot or leg pain and back to my zen state of running :)

Better than

I get more support and comfortable than anything I can buy at the store. I walk without pain and stand longer than all the foam insoles I was using including Dr S.

Grand canyon rim to rim

Fortunately my hiking shoes have enough room for these, as I needed the extra cushioning on a 24-mile, 1-day hike across the Grand Canyon -- with full pack. Thanks to the metatarsal pad I had no forefoot pain.

Work shoes

On my feet all day for work. Feet have less pain by the end of the day

Positive Foot Torque!

My experience with this brand of footbed’s has been outstanding. For several years in hiking boots, leisure shoes and workout footwear. No injuries, No soreness, No pain! As an enhancement to general everyday living and providing “Torque” to my workouts I would advise anyone to avoid store bought products. “Find your size, style and run with it”. You will love these footbeds. Retired Park Ranger; RL

Shocked!!!

My orthopedic surgeon actually recommended this product! He receives no payment for doing so, but simply stated how beneficial it has been for him. I currently have metal and screws in my left leg which was causing some swelling discomfort. The pain in my right foot became unbearable due to the way that I was compensating my gait. I wanted to do everything that I could to avoid another surgery so, I reluctantly ordered the product with a very little hopes. I followed the instructions on the box to a "T". I remember thinking, "how in the hell is this going to help me?" Well, little did I know it changed everything for me! I have cancelled my last two orthopedic appointments because my pain is gone! I interchange them between shoes from work to the gym! In the last 7 years I have dealt with two surgeries, pain and consistent swelling on a daily basis to now virtually pain free and very minimal swelling if any at all. I will be honest the first week it felt very weird in my shoe but give it a fair try! I personally found that removing the original insole in your shoe, makes the transition must easier. Be sure you have plenty of space to compensate for width and depth. ( Asics running shoe did not do well w/insert) I'm not disappointed and I will order more in the future!!!! From a very impressed customer and absolutely shocked that it worked like charm, give it a fair try!!! It changed everything for me!!!! Thank you!!!

These are great

These helped reduce my foot pain from having flat feet and multiple injuries

Actually works

Am a Size 9.5 so had to trim it down, but it still works really well. Haven't gotten arch pain, knee pain, back pain since wearing these.

Patella tracking issues solved

Was reccomended these by my PT for issues with my knees (see title of review). They've significantly helped not only my knee pain, but my preformance weight lifting in the gym (bulgarians are no longer the bane of my exsistance).

Great for skateboarding

Love these footbeds… especially for skateboarding. I have been nursing a major heel bruise from skateboarding that I received prior to using these footbeds. If I try skateboarding using any other insoles, my heel hurts which makes me reluctant to skate. The footbeds have great impact resistance. When I use these footbeds, my heel barely hurts and I feel as if I can move around like normal. I have also found that these significantly reduce the pain I receive from plantar fasciitis when skateboarding. Would recommend.

SOLE brand footbeds are great!

For neuroma pain I got the SOLE met style and I've been able to return to the ocean trails.

Soooo good for easing my PF!

These thin footbeds allow me to wear all my dressier shoes again. I can't believe how like magic they have relieved my plantar facitis pain and my walking is not so limited or with an obvious limp.

Great support!

I use these with a slip-on type shoe that basically offers zero support and were actually painful to walk in. Problem solved with these footbeds!

The Performance Thick really deliver

Have used their other ones which are good. However the Performance Thick is my new go to. I work on my feet for 8 or more hours per day (10 to 12 hr shifts). I was using a green pair but they were worn... switching to the Performance Thick took the foot pain and ache away!

Amazing footbeds

Great footbeds, wishing I would have went with the thin ones as I have to remove original insoles from shoes before putting sole met pad insole in. Makes for a more difficult transition, but overall a great product. Stopped metatarsalgia foot pain withing a day. Thanks

Great Footbeds

Put them in my golf shoes. Love the met pad. It relieves the pain from my Morton's neuroma. Great for walking the course.

Finally, a footbed that works!

After countless attempts at getting the proper orthotics made, often at great personal expense, I was turned on to SOLE by a running specialist. Since sliding SOLE into my running shoes, basketball shoes, hiking boots, ball cleats, and my everyday wearers, my feet have been super happy. Since making the switch, my sometimes debilitating bursitis, capsulits, and metatarsalitis have stopped bothering me completely. I have several pairs of $400 orthotics sitting in a bin next to my shoes that are all running on SOLE power! I can't recommend this product enough! Reasonable price, fast shipping, and finally pain-free mobility!

Great footbeds

I’ve been wearing these in my golf shoes. I walk the course 5 times a week and my feet feel great and there is no foot pain despite my foot issues.

Revived my tennis shoes

I replaced a competitor’s insoles in my tennis shoes a month ago. Now instead of feeling pain and soreness after only a couple of hours of use, my feet feel fine after 5 hours of using SOLEs! They really do adjust to your feet.

Very comfortable foot beds. Highly recommend.

I had been experiencing pain in my left foot, and these MET foot beds have helped a lot to alleviate the pain.

Perfect for my PF

I had terrible plantar fasciitis and this footbed for my shoes was a game changer. Light pain is there but that’s the stretching that I have to do on my own but as far as foot pain when I am on my feet all day had gone from an 8 to a 1. Will be ordering more soon so I don’t have to change them from shoe to shoe all the time.

No more pain!

I got these for my 13 yo daughter. She plays a lot of volleyball, in turn a lot of jumping and agility moves, plus she’s growing quickly. She was having pretty consistent knee and foot pain. At home we noticed her arches collapsing and she was overpronating so badly, it even looked painful. She takes these in and out easily when she switches shoes. Since using them, she no longer complains of pain! We are so grateful that a small change could make such a big difference!

Solving foot pain

I bought one pair to start and now have 6 pair In most of my footwear. Thx to my athletic therapist who diagnosed fallen metatarsal arches and thx to SOLE for solving the problem!

Really helped metatarsalgia

Gave my feet enough arch support and pressure distribution to stop a big callus continuously forming right under my middle metatarsal heads. Recommend giving these a shot if you have pain in that area.

Great foot Beds

SOLE is a very solid company without standing foot beds. I have been using them for years to alleviate foot pain and knee pain. I am a physician and frequently see patients with plantar fasciitis. They are also a very good therapeutic option for this condition.

Should have gotten these years ago!

I was experiencing from some foot pain and recommended I try some orthotic insoles. I immediately thought of SOLE as I love their sandals. I ordered a pair of footbeds and WOW! They have made a huge difference. I plan on ordering more for all of my shoes.

helps with plantar fasciitis

My daughter uses this brand of footbeds in her running shoes, and she recommended them to my for my plantar fasciitis pain. They're low-profile so I can wear them in casual flats while I teach. Definitely recommend!

Perfect

Exactly what I was looking for - I needed the support without sacrificing a bunch of room inside my footwear. I have degenerative disc disease so I am always in need of support starting at my feet to help with my back pain.

No Foot Pain

I have a pair in all my running shoes. Ran several marathons where my whole body was in pain except for my feet.

Better than prescribed orthotics.

I’m very surprised at the quality. I have the footbeds with the met pad, which I need because of pain in my forefoot. I have spent a lot of money on orthotics that don’t work well, and these are a nice change.

Disappointed!!

I originally bought the insoles with the hard sole and though the cork would be better for me. I followed the instructions of heating for 2 mins at 200 and when I went to insert them in the shoes the cork began to fall off!! Was able to save them to the point they are still usable but would not recommend heating them at 200. still rather disappointed at the fact they feel apart that bad. Maybe the instructions should be changed that they should not be heated so long!! But I am impressed at the insoles have definetly help with my foot pain!! would recommend but with the cork I would probably not heat them up too long and just take the time and break them in slowly??Just my opinion!!

Really do work

I am surprised once again at how well these footbeds work in relieving foot stress. Not to sound like a crazy 'cures everything' person, but for me they have been a successful alternative to my prescription mega money orthotics. Hip and joint pain from being on my feet all day are reduced at the same level as those chonky expensive orthotics. SOLE are priced so that I can have more than one pair and custom fit them to each shoe! Great great product and I love the ethical production and Enviro packaging. Way to go!

Active medium with met pad

So far, great. No foot pain or cramps during or after pickleball! Just what I was hoping for. Already bought a second pair and will need a few more for all my shoes

SOLE wonders

These footbeds are the equivalent to my 300$ orthotics in my other shoes, I am very impressed that I can wear all day without feeling pain.

These footbeds work great!

I have been having heel pain. These footbeds were recommended to my daughter for her feet issues by her orthopedic doctor so I thought I would try them myself since they worked so well for her. I can hike, walk, and go up and down stairs with no pain when I wear these. It's amazing!

Great for Capsulitis!

I chose to try the footbeds with the met pad to help relieve foot pain from Capsulitis. They work! I no longer have to worry about being hurt with every step I take.

Solved my foot pain!

I work on my feet all day and started to get foot pain recently despite any types of shoes that I would try. Finally I stumbled upon these so I thought I'd give it a shot! My feet feel so much more supported and comfortable now and my foot pain is completely gone. They were a bit thick for my running shoes, so I ordered the active thick as well and plan to put these ones in my winter boots. Highly recommend!

Stubborn husband finally happy

I've been using these for a few years and love them. Finally convinced my husband to try them to relieve his Plantar fasciitis and for the first time in years he is almost completely free of foot pain.

Great Footbeds

Helps receive my pain due to plantar facitis and they are comfortable as well

Great support

These footbeds have help my arches and decrease the pain after a workout or exercise.

Perfect for soccer cleats

My 11 yo has super flat feet which cause his ankles to roll in and leads to other leg pains. He needs inserts to keep his legs in alignment, and the SOLE brand works for him. The support is firm, so it lasts, and these thin footbeds work in his soccer cleats, too.

Total Game Changer

First off, I want to thank SOLE for coming up with an amazing foot sole. I am 59 years old, I have had problems with my feet for about the last 15 years, to the point they have caused me to not be able to go for a walk, ride a bike etc. I’m in pain all the time, constantly having to buy new shoes to try and get comfort. I have seen podiatrist twice, I have paid hundreds of dollars for insoles that are obtrusive to the point of not fitting in any of my shoes. The metatarsal soles were like walking on rocks. I have flat feet and I have a neuroma on the ball of both of my feet. I was told the only thing that could be done was cortisone shots, as surgery is not an option because the neuroma is on the main nerve in my feet. My feet are also causing knee and hip pain. I saw these on FB and decided to take a chance. WOW!!! Followed the instructions, total game changer, the material used is awesome, I did remove the soles in my shoes as my heel was slipping out with both soles in my shoes. Did not have to trim them down. I have had these in for about 2 hours now and for the first time in years my feet feel like the used to in a shoe. Usually my toes are scrunched in the toe part of my shoes, the arch support has lifted my feet to the point that I can finally wiggle my toes in shoes. The metarsal portion is like it is not there but it is lifting my foot so that I am not walking on the neuroma. I’m am so happy with these soles I am going to purchase two more immediately. When I placed my order on FB, I received 50% off because they had already sent a free pair to my postal code. Plus shipping. I received my order in about 36 hours. This company and these soles have literally changed my life. For those of you who are skeptical about these soles you really need to give them a try. They are a fraction of the cost that orthotics cost even at regular price. Thank you SOLE.

Work great

These have certainly done the job , my feet do not pain like they did and are not as fatigued very happy with the purchase.

Such relief

My husband works in the trades and is on his feet all day long often doing very physical work. He has often struggled with foot pain. He has used other inserts but said SOLE’s are better. They provide him with the relief he needs.

Fixed my knee pain!

Got a pair of these on a whim because my husband was ordering a pair and they totally exceeded my expectations! Light years beyond any drugstore insole, and more effective than other higher end ones my husband had tried previously (in his opinion). I’d had chronic pain in my right knee for over a year, and one day after wearing these for a few weeks it just disappeared! I hadn’t expected it to go away, but apparently it was caused by thhe way I was walking and these footbeds did the trick. Highly recommend!

flat feet wide foot

I received my Sole product about 2 months ago and have used them extensively during my morning walks. As a flat footer and with a wide forefoot, these insoles fit me very well. They fit in my daily walking shoes, as well as my Jordans. I've noticed a decrease in my lower back pain. I hope to try their wide foot insoles soon.

They are great!!

Bought these for my son and he loves them. No more foot pain when he runs.

These work!

My husband walks 10-12 miles a day and these footbeds save his feet from pain.

So comfortable

The pain In My feet was horrible. Once I started using SOLE Active Thick, almost all my pain is gone.

SOLE comfort

Taking the dog for walks and for park play I find that I am not experiencing any problems or pain in my feet or ankles. This product is very affordable and I highly recommend the SOLE footbeds. I have them in both of my walking shoes.

Support required and received, my workboots which were only one year old were causing a lot of pain.

I have been wearing these footbeds in my workboots for over a month and it’s now a pleasure to spend 8 hours in my boots. The boots which are a well known quality brand come new with cheap insoles that don’t provide arch support and left my feet sore. I suffered for a year and was ready to throw out the boots. I will be buying another pair for my next new boots.

Helped with shin splints

Really comfortable, and I was able to get additional support added by a foot specialist for my extremely high arches. They've almost completely erased the pain I had from shin splints.

Just what I needed

Purchased these for my golf shoes to help with metatarsalgia relief while walking 18 holes. These really helped support my arch and prevent pain.

Love these

I always recommend these to anyone that complains about foot/back pain.

This is a superior product - don't hesitate to buy them!

I really like the Active Thin footbeds; they work well in all my shoes. These were recommended by my podiatrist for foot pain that I no longer have as I have multiple sets of these for all my shoes and never go without them. -- I feel I'm properly aligned now and well supported in all my shoes. -- I put them in the washing machine and set out for quick dry. These will last you for a very long time.

The BEST foot beds ever!!!!

I have been using these for over a year, I have put them in all my athletic shoes. I have Plantar Fasciitis and these have stopped the pain immediately. Great support, super lightweight, sturdy and slim enough to fit into most closed toe shoes (with a removable sole or ones that are loose).

Fixed my feet problems

Teacher of 10 years and my feet were always hurting. I started using these and swapping them around in my shoes and I have absolutely no pain any more. 10/10 recommend!

A Must Buy!

I have plantar fasciitis and bunions. These footbeds were recommended by my podiatrist and I’m so glad I got them. They fit perfectly in my Nike’s and I can for miles without pain.

Great Fit

I have been wearing these for a month and have ordered another pair. I use them every day and change them from shoe to shoe. They have helped control my back pain. Also, I ordered them a 1/2 size smaller than the shoe size and they fit perfect.

Great support

I struggle with ankle pain that makes stair climbing painful. I’ve found that wearing these footbeds go a long way to reducing that pain

Fits well and ends pain

I have used these for years. I have not had plantar fasciitis pain since the first day I wore these some years ago. The thin versions are great for avoiding toe crowding.

best footbeds

so comfortable, no more pain!

best footbeds

everyday i use them, they make so comfortable, no more pain!

A must have for any shoe

I've been using these in my work boots for years now. They are a game changer on steel flooring. Foot fatigue is gone, pain after hours of walking nonexistent. These are incredible. I have purchased SOLE foot beds for everyone in my family.

Best footbeds Ever

I have been using the footbeds since May and my foot pain is gone. I love them!

Amazing insoles

I began to have excruciating pain in the balls of my feet to the point where I could only walk a mile at best went to REI and mentioned the problem and the associate in footwear suggest I try the SOLE footbeds with Met Pad. Wow what a decision, I was able to walk again with no pain. Since then I’ve purchased four additional pairs and just ordered two pair of the performance medium with Met Pad. SOLE makes an excellent product that is affordable and their customer service is rated number one in my book

Great product

My son uses these daily now for his chronic foot pain due to flat foot and over pronation.

best footbeds ever

My wife uses these in her workout shoes. makes a world of difference for her ankle and knee pain.

Great foot bed

Have light flat foot and those work well for relieving pain prefer this model over performance one ( too stiff)

Excellent support

This is my third pair of these footbeds. I bought it as a spare, so I'll hopefully never be without. I have one in my running shoes and another in my cycling shoes. Multiple foot injuries/problems kept me out of running for years, but these provide excellent support, and I've been able to run moderate amounts without pain. They are comfortable when you first put them in, but they do get more comfortable as time goes on. Seems to take me at least a couple weeks for me to fully break them in.

Versatile and Comfortable

The active thin foot bed with mat pad are the foot beds that I have in all my shoes. Because of their low volume I can wear them in dress shoes or runners. The zero drop and arch support provide everything I need to participate in any activity. These foot beds, completely removed my plantar fasciitis, helped with alignment, and even helped alleviate pain in my ankles, knees, and lower back. I can’t recommend these enough!

Great Product for Altra Wearers

I bought these for two reasons, I wear Altras and I have been dealing with Plantar Fasciitis. First, they fit almost perfectly out of the box. I trim a tiny bit for a perfect fit. Second, the pain from PF was nearly debilitating and over the weeks of wearing these footbeds the pain has almost completely gone away. Highly recommend trying these.

Great in Running Shoes

Before I started using SOLE in all my shoes, I would wake up dreading that first step out of bed in the morning. My feet are very flat, and I used to wake everything morning with a stabbing pain as I put weight on my feet. I've been pain-free since being a SOLE-man. For those wondering if they should get the cork or this material for their runners, go for this. The cork would produce a squeak in my running shoes as I picked up the pace, but these eliminated it.

Allows me to walk further without pain

SOLE footbeds have helped with pain from my flat feet and bunions for years. I wear these or their Active Medium footbeds depending on the shoes.

My preferred footbeds

SOLE footbeds have helped with pain from my flat feet and bunions for years. I wear these or their Active Thick footbeds depending on the shoes.

Orthopedic doctor was right!

These footbeds have helped eliminate my foot pain from metatarsalgia. They are comfortable without adding bulk to my shoes.

Good stuff

Lots of pain working out before footbeds now working out is enjoyable and no issues getting threw my whole workout

Love these footbeds

My feet are very happy! I am really enjoying pain free feet. I had a bunion that these footbeds fixedI also have knee pain that these footbeds have helped. I notice a big difference when I don’t use them. I recommend them to anyone who has issues with their feet, ankles, knees or hips.

Great for my golf shoes

Adds comfort to my golf shoes and I am able to walk the course now with less pain from arthritis. Definitely a good purchase.

Very good for arthritis in feet

Fits my trail running shoes very well.Very comfortable and supportive. My feet are less tired and painful at the end of a day.

Reduces Pain

My husband broke his foot as a teenager, and now that he is older he gets aching pain from the break when he’s on his feet all day. I bought him these footbeds, and now he has mostly stopped complaining of foot pain when he gets home.

Great Price, Great Fit, Foot Pain Gone

Having gone through two other brands before settling on Sole, I was running into a problem where the correct size shoe for me had a toe box that was just too big even with the aftermarket inserts I was using. My orthopedist had a foot specialist who recommended this company, and happens to supply them in his office, and not only were they a great fit, but the thick version helped to shore up the toe box. With proper fitting shoes and proper fitting inserts from Sole, My foot pain has almost entirely ceased and what remains is getting better by the day.

Great footbeds!

I immediately had relief from my foot pain when I used these footbeds.

Taylor

Had severe foot pain until I tried SOLE! Now it’s gone best money I ever spent!

Helped my feet recover

I've been struggling with foot pain and trying to continue playing tennis. Using this insole reduced the pain significantly. If this continues, I'm hoping that the pain disappears entirely.

Amazing support in my cycling shoes

I swapped out my stock footbeds in my gravel shoes after having arch pain and a burning sensation on top of the foot during my extended rides. The relief was immediate from the swap and I noticed a gain of 10w on the power meter. Definitely recommend these as an upgrade

Really happy with these footbeds

I use these in my house shoes and sneakers and experience much less pain than usual after long walks/standing. I also had an injury that caused severe pain and haven't had any pain in weeks.

Great footbeds

I use these every day and they really help with foot pain from an injury. Much better than what's available at regular stores.

Amazing footbeds

After wearing these for only days on the recommendation from the orthopedic surgeon the ganglion cyst decreased to near nothing and the bone spur on the top of my foot has had a huge reduction in pain.

Really help plantar fasciitis

I’ve been wearing these inserts daily for weeks and they help lessen my pain.

Excellent product

Took foot pain away and helped my back

Helping with foot pain

Making a difference with chronic pain

Comfortable for Everyday Wear

About 10 years ago I had a painful case of plantar fasciitis. My primary care physician recommended that I start using SOLE Footbeds in addition to the calf and Achilles tendon stretching that I was doing. Problem solved! Since then I use the “Thin” in my everyday shoes, the “Active” in my running shoes, and the “Performance” in my hiking boots. They are supportive, form to my feet, and comfortable. No re-occurring plantar fasciitis since I started using them.

SOLE footbeds

After seeing my podiatrist, he suggested I try these. I have plantar fasciitis in my Left foot and find walking difficult without much pain. I have worn these for several months and no longer have problems with pain in my foot. I owe this to the footbeds. It has made a big difference in how far I can walk, which I enjoy as my main form of exercise. Thank you for this product!!

Great footbeds

I have previously used these footbeds for years and have found they give good arch support with sufficient cushioning to avoid heel pain. Of course they need replacing from time to time. I walk a dog, so they get lots of use.

A footbed so comfortable!

Everyday, all day long, this footbed makes me happy without feet pain even I stand up many hours.

These are the ones

I have tried lots of different insoles and none work as well as SOLE footbeds. These footbeds are even better than my custom made insoles. No more pain at the end of the work day. Thanks!

I bought these to wear around the house while I recover from a metatarsal injury. Super comfortable, pain free, and cute too.

CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT THESE

No ball of foot pain as long as I’m wearing these. The met pad relieves all the pain.

A MUST HAVE

I have serious ball of foot pain which is totally relieved with the met pad in these footbeds. Love them!

Supportive Insoles

I was having occasional pain in my feet, but not anymore. These insoles are great at providing firm support in shoes that don’t require added cushioning. I wear them in my running shoes, and I can go anywhere without pain.

Feedback on Active Medium, Men's 14

I purchased this product to support my supination and either it was meant for pronation but the opposite effect occurred. It was very painful to walk with and after a day made my condition the worse

Best Footbeds EVER!

I buy these for myself and my tradesman husband and sons. They love them in their work boots! Great fit, great support - and less pain at the end of the day.

No more pain in my feet at the end of the day

Walking distances with no pain.

Works as expected

Helps with foot pain

Works well

Reduced knee pain.

Love my new footbeds.

After wearing these for a few weeks now, I cannot go back. Resolved a lot of issues around foot pain and they make my footwear all the more comfortable.

These are perfect for my son

My son has overpronation and these have worked perfect for him. They are comfortable and definitely have relieved his pain. We are so thankful to his new doctor for suggesting these.

After several failed attempts Sole saved me.

The footbeds have brought relief after several months of pain. Tried others but these were the ones that worked. Thank you I can go for pleasant walks again.

Met pad really helped

The extra cushioning and met pad really helped my foot and toe pain

Great support

I have bad ankles and I am on my feet all day for my job so I come home with my feet and ankles in pain but ever since I bought these I have had little to no pain

Great footbed upgrade to my ski boots!

I tried these out to see how the met pad feels to help with lower foot pain due to bunions in my ski boots and was pleasantly surprised how much better they felt than the stock inserts! Great fit around the heel area and didn't take any more volume in my already well fitted boot. Highly recommended!

Super comfortable

I’ve been wearing them for a few weeks and they have really been helping with my knee pain

Brandi C

Best sandals for relieving foot pain!

This sandals have been a game changer. My plantar fasciitis is no longer a daily struggle after the switch to these flip flops from my previous rubber soled sandals.

Best

I TRIED MANY A FOOT BED WASTED ALOT OF MONEY ON CHEAP KNOCK OFFS...THESE ARE BY FAR THE BEST 👌 MY FOOT PAIN IS GONE...

Comfortable helps with my foot pain

I been wearing these SOLE inserts for years I love that that my foot pain has disappeared. They are comfortable and fit in many different shoes.

Pain relief for my Morton’s neuroma

Bought these for my Blundstones. Would often get metatarsalgia . it was relieved completely with these footbeds

These are INCREDIBLE

I have been suffering near-debilitating-at-times plantar fasciitis for about the past 9-12 months. Nothing I did seemed to help in any meaningful way. I saw these footbeds advertised on Facebook and out of pure desperation thought "Why not". They arrived quickly, in beautiful, eco-friendly packaging. Within a day of wearing these in my running shoes, my foot felt better. Not cured, but better than it had felt in ages. Now, a month later, I can honestly say that I feel like my plantar fasciitis is almost cured. I still have some pain, but it has gone from what I'd rate as a 9/10 to a 1-2/10, and the pain is far less frequent as well. The telltale morning pain on stepping out of bed has almost even been alleviated! These footbeds are absolute miracles. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I will definitely be ordering more, and am looking forward to trying out the footwear line as well! THANK YOU, SOLE!!

Great footbeds

I needed to get footbeds bought and I have used these before. Once I started using them, the pain in my shins decreased considerably. They are very durable footbed and fit my shoes well.

First footbeds

Never used footbeds but with lots of foot pain after pushing hard at gym. Once I used them I was able to continue to push my goals at gym again with out horrible pain

Love the met pad

Met pad really helps with foot pain.

Met pad is great

The met pad footbed has really helped my toe pain.

My Feet Were Surprised

I have flat feet that make it hard to find the proper support. That balance between too much and too little often results in pain and sore feet. The performance thin strike that balance for me. At first, I wasn't sure, but I knew I had to give it the time they needed to break in. I know the oven method accelerates the process, but I wanted to give my feet time to earn it. Sure enough, the insoles moulded to my feet after a few days. Most days, I don't even feel they are in my shoes. But the most telling result is the lack of pain and soreness. They work.

MimiSC

Super Comfortable

Just tried the Baja Flips and they are wonderful. No metatarsalgia pain!

Sore forefoot

Pain resolved over 2-3 week.

Using these supports immediately remedy my foot pain

I use SOLE footbeds every day and recommend it to everyone in my family.

Breathable Footbed

I have used the performance Footbed and decided to grab another pair for my other shoes. These are definitely much more breathable than the other model which is great for summer but the others are much better for winter. That said both Footbeds are awesome and have fixed this random foot pain I've had for years so they get a thumbs up in my book.

Solved my knee pain

I have issues with over pronation. Bought some new tennis shoes and had knee pain from them not having enough support. Put in these footbeds and they instantly fixed the issue!

Must have for flatfeet

I have flatfeet and knee pain because of that. I can get my 10k steps/day without any feet or knee pain wearing them.

Foot beds for freedom

Since using SOLE footbeds and sandals my lower back pain disappeared. “FREEDOM of pain has changed my life.

Thin

Ran a couple marathons with them. They seemed to reduce the pain from a lingering morton's neuroma.

Excellent footbeds that made my feet comfortable again

This is my 3rd pair, this time for my daily use shoes ( I have the thicker ones in my ski boots and hiking boots). These have been a real game changer for me. My forefoot pain has been virtually eliminated.

Foot Bed & Sandals

I play quite a bit of tennis and have hardwood floors in my house... so lots of hard surfaces and I have high arches. I'm 62 and was starting to experience a chronic pain toward my big toe that was activated playing sports etc. I started with the footbeds and now have them in all my athletic shoes. I also wear their sandals around the house instead slippers as the arch support makes my feet feel livelier and pain free. Gonna buy a pair of the sandals for my friends dad that works on a hobby farm. He wears the footbeds that I recommended and i think the sandals would be good for him too!

Best footbeds ever- have worn them for years!

I have worn these footbeds (including the blue and black varieties, depending on the type of shoes/boots) for about 10 years, and literally couldn't walk without them; so I have them in every pair of footwear that I own. I suffer from metatarsalgia and splayfoot, which created unbearable pain that literally made me cry, even when walking for a couple hundred yards only. Since I am wearing these footbeds, I am walking pain free- on concrete as well as on rocky hiking trails. Highly recommend!

Just as good as the ones from my podiatrist

They feel great and help me avoid foot pain.

Truly makes a difference

I’ve been using these for years and they’ve always been great. Morton’s Neuroma has always been an issue for me - whether I was running or just walking more than usual that day, I’d get a sharp pain in one particular spot on my sole. These footbeds have almost entirely eliminated that issue. Highly recommend!

I think I finally found my footbed

I've spent hundreds of dollars on insoles for the past few years to correct a combination of AAFD, flantar fasciitis, and hallux rigidus. I've tried just about every competitor with some success – but it's never perfect. I can't believe I went years without trying this brand. I'm finally pain free and can run again.

Been wearing this brand for years

I’ve been buying this brand through Amazon for many years. Glad I found the company site.with a better selection. These are so much better than superfeet which always squeaked. Eliminates knee pain. Podiatrist said these insoles have saved me from needing foot surgery.

Footbeds relieved foot pain

It's only been 10 days since I've been wearing these, and they've already relieved my foot, ankle and knee pain that was caused by a fallen arch. The shipping was very quick - they arrived two days after I placed my order, which was great.

Best footbeds

I've been wearing these for weeks and they have solved my knee and hip pain.

Love these

This is my second set. I wore the first in my work shoes for over a year. The footbeds are amazing at keeping my footpain in check. With less pain I'm not as tired at the end of the day. So happy I found these. Thank you.

Excellent footbeds

I’ve been using these for nearly 20 years now. I’ll only buy shoes that will accommodate them. They’ve relieved pain not just in my feet but knees and back too. You may need to get used to them if you’re not accustomed to actual foot support, but once you do it’s sooooooo worth it! I recommend them to anyone!

Best footbeds!!

The Sole footbeds have helped my plantar fasciitis tremendously. My foot specialist recommended these and I am so glad he did. Now I can walk with no pain.

Good for Plantar Faciitis

I have been wearing SOLE inserts for over 20 years. They really worked for me in reducing plantar facilities pain. I wear them in all footwear. I started using the thick versions after removing the shoe manufacturers insole. I needed a little more cushioning so I switched to these thin versions with a pair of store bought cushion insoles on top of them. The combo works great. I still take out the manufacturers insoles.

oh to walk again without pain

I like my SOLE footbeds so much that I brought another pair. If you want to walk with comfort buy this product

number 1 for pain relief

My SOLE footbeds are great for the pain in my foot. I now can walk better and enjoy walking my dog once again.

Absolutely amazing!

I had terrible ankle pain from walking on concrete all day. After around a week with these insoles the pain is gone

On my feet all day!

Working in healthcare I put a lot of miles on my shoes on hard concrete floors. These have eliminated my plantar fasciitis pain even on the heaviest days. Life changing! I recommend these to all of my coworkers.

Cam McDougall

Thermal Thick Wool footbeds

I've had issues with my feet for years and find the SOLE footbeds help relieve pain and and are very comfortable. I use these specifically in my work boots they really make a long day on my feet go by much quicker. 10/10 would recommend

Great thin footbeds!

I had a pair of (almost) new white leather sneakers that I couldn’t wear as they didn’t provide enough support for my feet and my orthotics were too thick for them. Decided to try the SOLE Performance Thin footbeds as a last resort before giving the shoes away - so glad I did! They worked perfectly in my sneakers and I can wear them for hours pain-free. Would definitely recommend!

Recommended by my Podiatrist

Love the arch height. Seems to make a difference in foot pain. Good product.

Lifesaver for Snowboarder with Morton's Neuroma

I've been looking for this my entire snowboarding life. I have been snowboarding for at least 9 years. In the last 5 years, I started developing metatarsal pain in both feet while snowboarding. The pain and occurrences got so bad that after two runs, I needed to remove my boots and rest for at least 30 minutes. On longer runs, I would start hyperventilating and wincing because of the pain. I tried on different boots, inserts, and even got the Step-On boots and bindings since I thought the "no binding" bindings would stop the pain. It didn't. Then I found SOLE and their products. This literally changed my life. I went on multiple runs on my last trip without stopping. There's some tightness but no pain! I could not believe it. This was my first time trying this insert. I wear size 7 Burton Step-On boots, so I ordered the size 7. I removed the original insert and had to cut some of the SOLE footbed to fit the boots. I wore the boots around the house for at least 30 mins to break them in. For anyone with Morton Neuroma (pain between your toes and balls of your feet) and loves to save their sanity while snowboarding, this is the SOLE for you!

Awesome footbeds

Ever since I started wearing these footbeds, my foot pains went away.

finally relief from pain

I tried many different solutions at substantial cost. SOLE was by far the best and less expensive to alternatives.

Lifesavers!

I have been using SOLE footbeds for years; and because I have issues with my feet (plantar fascitis and no padding on the bottom), these make it possible for me to be on my feet all day without pain.

Heal pain relief

I’ve been wearing these for weeks and live them

Love these footbeds!

My husband has these footbeds in his cross country classic boots and they’ve been great. His foot pain is reduced, perfect level of support.

Candace

Injury

I tore some ligaments in my ankle last year and have had trouble with pain there ever since. My physical therapist recommended this brand and it has helped immensely! I plan to get a pair for all of my shoes :)

Best foodbeds ever!

I've been wearing these for weeks and my feet love the difference. I spend much of my day on my feet and I have no more pain at the end of the day or the next morning when I awake. They do the job well.

Ralph D

The Best and at a Low Price

I have been experiencing foot pain for about a year and eventually went to The Good Feet Store. For $400 they gave me arch supports which really never solves my problem. BTW thy have. No return policy. For 1/8 the price, my SOLE sandals are incredibly comfortable, and my foot pain is gone.

Only footbeds I get!

I have flat feet and will get pain in foot/ankle or shin splints with support. I have these in every single pair of my shoes and they really make a difference. I can especially notice when I walk around bare foot too long. I wish there were sandal options with this exact support!

Finally found footbeds that work for me.

I've tried dozens of footbeds to alleviate or at least reduce my foot pain caused by years of working on old, hard concrete hangar floors. SOLE footbeds are the only ones that I've found that are durable, and help my foot pain. Good product.

Good Product

Very comfortable footbeds. I have been wearing them about a month now and am very pleased. The extra cushioning has allowed me to walk further with no pain.

Great gift for those with foot pain

After much success with my footbeds, got a pair for my sister. They have relieved her foot pain and she tells me they are very comfortable too.

Solved my incessant foot pain

Had this pain along the side of my foot that I lived with for some time. Thought it was just how things would be. I saw a video of someone recommending these and decided to take the chance. Glad I did, pain went away almost immediately.

Work greats!

I've been using the thicker footbeds for well over a decade. Was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis back in 2002. Wear them in every shoe I own. But had my daughter's wedding coming up and using the thicker ones in the fancy dress shoes they got me made my foot feel very cramped. My wife suggested trying the thinner ones, and they worked awesomely! Would love to say that with the footbeds I was able to dance 'the light fantastic'. Alas, I still dance like I have two left feet but I was in no pain! Thanks again, SOLE Products!

Love these!

I have bought 2 different thickness of these footbeds. I am dealing with foot pain and these have helped so much. I have put them in my dressier boots and they work great. I bought for my sandal type shoes but yet to use for that. Think they will be good.

So comfy

Honestly so comfortable and relieve any foot / back pain .

Perfect fit and comfort

I bought these for some every day shoes I was finding hurt the soles of my feet when walking on hard surfaces - these footbeds have eliminated that pain. I thought they may make my shoes too tight as the original insoles were very thin, but they don’t.

Shawn

Met pad footbeds

Great footbeds if you have the issues these resolve. They helped with my nerve pain, I haven’t had it since I got these, but they have caused an unintended issue with my 2nd metatarsal so I’m going to stop using them for a while and see if regular insoles resolve that problem. I’m bummed because I bought a bunch of these.

Great footbeds for pain relief

Got these for my wife and it has helped her with her foot pain.

Best insoles

I've been wearing these for for at least 5 years now and they are fantastic. I am a diabetic and have problems with my feet and help relieve the pain. I'm a school bus driver and wear boot all day and if it weren't for these footbeds I wouldn't be able to.

Best footbeds ever!

I have been wearing these for 2 years now and got my husband 2 pairs for his dress shoes he wears to work. Both of us suffer from foot pain and the footbeds have allowed us to wear shoes comfortably, walk and hike without foot pain, and enjoy the gym again.

The answer to my foot problems

These have really helped with my foot pains. Years ago I broke a metatarsal, and these have made the discomfort and pain from that really disappear. Also, I have relatively flat arches. I chose the medium arch to help out. It felt unusual at first, but after 4-5 days it felt completely natural. Now I can't imagine not having these. Great product.

Foot pain cured!

Love these footbeds for their ease of installation into any shoe I wear, and because they have cured my plantar fasciitis when nothing else could!

These Footbeds are Great

I have these footbeds in my work boots and hiking boots They are so comfortable and relieve all my aches and pains. No more tired feet!!

Fantastic Footbeds

I had plantar faciitis and suffered for more than a month A friend recommended Sole footbeds and after using them for only a week the pain went away and has never returned. I love this product!!!!

These really work!

These have definitely helped to ease my pain.

Active footbeds

I have a Mortons Neuroma, I play pickleball, and the forward/backward and side to side motion make it very painful, these have really helped in alleviating that pain, - Thank you

Solve arch problem

I was having pain in my arches, so I started wearing these footbeds in everything I wear and now my feet don't hurt anymore.

Shoes With Poor Support Are Now Wearable!

I am thrilled with these footbeds. They have made several pair of shoes wearable again. The provide excellent arch support and relieve back pain that the shoes original liners used to create. One point is that it is important to get the correct thickness for the specific shoe that the footbed will be used.

Solved my aching feet problems

I have been using these footbeds for about a month and my feet are so grateful! My podiatrist recommended that I get insoles, and offered to sell my some for $100, but I got these instead. So glad that I did. I had been running daily but my feet were getting to sore, callused, painful to continue. after about one week of wearing these daily I am feeling much better and am looking forward to running again soon. thanks!

Mr

Helpful for pain relief

Serving their purpose well

Using these in my work boots. The flat sole heavy boots and walking in concrete all day were starting to cause knee pain. These have helped a lot

Bronwyn Amesbury

Good for my feet

These are a great brand. The comfortable design has made my life better as I was suffering from pain in the feet. Now I feel like my feet are almost back to normal. I am thankful for SOLE.

Very happy with the results

This is the second pair of "active thins with met pad" I bought. I found them to be extremely comfortable and have helped deal with my foot pain during exercises. I bought the thins because of the existing running shoes I have (i.e., not a lot of room). They fit well. Though I thought the break-in period might take a while, I found them to have shaped my feet within a few days of walking and running (after about 10-12 hours of activity).

Great footbeds

These have eliminated all the heel pain I was getting wearing my hiking and winter boots. I want to buy a thinner pair for my dress shoes.

Amazing Support!

I work long 12 hour shifts on my feet and these pads have provided great support. I haven't felt any pain or discomfort and they fit my shoe perfectly. I was a first time customer but i will definitely be buying again!

Athletic use

Absolutely love these! They are in my workout sneakers but I need to also put them in my regular shoes. Recommended them to my sister who had two surgeries on her foot and still in pain.

Helped my feet so much!

Within a week, I noticed my feet feeling so much better. I have foot pain related to bunions and flat feet. I've since bought pairs for my husband and son.

Never with out them

SOLE has given me my life back. Vicious circle, knee injury, gain weight, more problems, can’t walk without pain, more mobility problems, more weight gain, more problems. Thank you SOLE.

Releived instep pain

Surprisingly effective from the start, easing instep pain. Effect persists.

Relieved bruised arches and midsole

Jacked my arches and midsole in a pair of Hokas over a one day 36mile hike. A friend suggested the SOLE footbeds and I'm glad I got them. I put them into every shoe now and the comfort is immediate. Has helped me stay committed to daily long distance hiking by eliminating arch and midsole pain

Best foot beds for leg/back pain

My wife and I have been wearing these for the past few years. Have multiple pairs to satisfy all our footwear. Lower back pain and leg pain has been decreased to a bear minimum.

Marilyn Laursen

Shoes I can wear without pain!

After reading the previous reviews on this shoe and also the flip flops I had to try them myself. I have had Mortons Neuroma for 10 years and had not worn a flip flop or slide without pain for a long time. I was so happy to find that I can now wear these shoes all day with no issues. Thanks SOLE!

Finally no pain

After dealing with pain on the bottom of my feet, and after trying several pairs of shoes and different insole combinations, the SOLE footbeds were the only footbeds that relived the pain.

For Ski Boots

I bought these to use in ski boots. I trimmed them a bit. They molded during the process of molding the liner. They work great: no pain from Morton's neuroma!

Hypermobility friendly

I have HEDS, and my feet cannot stay in alignment on their own. I've tried other insoles before, but these are the first I've found that actually support my feet and keep my pain levels down

Easy to use and feel great

I've worn these now for the last couple of weeks and they've been great. I had this foot pain that I would get when walking for long distances and since wearing these, the pain is totally gone. These are great.

Rae Conway

Comfortable

I have foot issues and these footbeds help with the pain in my feet and ankles and give enough support so when I'm not wearing shoes, my feet are in less pain. Customer Service is outstanding.

Beckie Willows

Best Customer Service

First I want to say I love my SOLE inserts. I have Mortons Neuroma in both feet and was heading towards surgery. My SOLE inserts have helped so much with the pain and discomfort I am no longer considering surgery. I can walk and hike without pain. While I love my inserts, I truly want to sing the praises of their amazing customer service. About 10 days before I fly to Iceland I see a sale on the Thermal Thick insole with wool. I immediately place an order and knowing I was expecting a miracle, I wrote a note and asked if they could possibly ship them out quickly, Not only did they get them out the same day but an amazing employee wrote on the envelope "Recipient going to Iceland on 11th, deliver soon" Well they arrived today, two days before I leave. Without their prompt service and note on my package I doubt they would have made it in time. They went from Vancouver to Los Angeles to Virginia in record time . THANK YOU so much!!!! You are the best!!!!

Vonda Harms

comfy flipflops

I wear these flipflops as I have plantars fascitis and no pain with these. Thanks

No more hip pain

I started wearing these right away and noticed that my hips no longer bothered me. I adjusted to them after a couple of wears. Can’t imagine not wearing them.

JUDITH

SUCH WARM COMFORT!

Ordered these Wool SOLE inserts and use them in my sneakers. Keeps my feet warm and comfy on the cooler days. Best inserts ever for my feet!! No knee pain or hip pain. Can wear these all day long.

These are awesome insoles

I was very skeptical of these at first, but since my doctor recommended the black ones I decided to give it a try. At first they hurt my feet, but when I did the oven trick for 2 minutes these insoles feel awesome. My plantar fasciitis pain is almost all gone. This things are gold.

Happy Feet

I have been wearing SOLE for years for plantar fasciitis with great results. No more pain in my happy feet!!!

Sharon J

Very satisfied

This is my 2nd pair and they definitely help with the pain I have in my back

Really helps with metatarsal pain

I have tried lots of orthotics including the Thick with metatarsal pads from SOLE as well as other brands. These work best for me for preventing foot pain. With the thick orthotics the metatarsal pad is too rigid and hurts my feet. I have bone on bone in the 2nd and 3rd metatarsal joint of each foot due to osteoarthritis and these pads in my rigid vibram-sole hiking boots and Hoka bondi tennis shoes have allowed me to keep walking and hiking. Some reviews say they wear out but I used to have custom orthotics and at the price of the SOLE Medium Performance with met pad inserts I can replace 2 pairs 4 times for the price of custom orthotics. Some may need custom orthotics but these work well for me. My hiking boots are Size 8 and my Hokas are 7.5. These SOLE inserts fit both really well and the heel cup is deep enough that my heel doesn't slide.

best ever

These are the best insoles I've ever used. I had a pain in my hip before using and a couple weeks after beginning to use them, the pain is almost completely gone.

Best footbeds for Work Boots

I purchased these for my work boots after I had already had some for my everyday boots. They help with my foot pain and stop the pain in my lower back from wearing work boots all day. Will buy again

Best Footbeds I ever Bought

I purchased these footbeds because I get pain in my foot and have drop foot. After putting these in my work boots ,the pain is almost gone while I am at work. Will be buying some for golf shoes.

Anonymous

Great footbeds

Keeps my feet from feeling sore anymore halfway through the day. Can go 8 hrs or more pain free. Would recommend to anyone that wants comfort all day.

Awesome footbeds!

I have worn these footbeds (Active Medium) for five years now. I did try one other brand but there was no comparison. These were actually recommended by my podiatrist! Not only was my pain eliminated, but my feet feel refreshed.

Most comfortable insole I’ve purchased

I’ve been wearing these for a few weeks now and I’m noticeably more comfortable throughout the day. I have to be on my feet all day for my work and these insoles lessen my pain. I’m already looking to get more for my other shoes and sneakers!

no pain

relieves foot pain

Goodbye foot pain

I wear these in all my running shoes. They’ve taken care of the foot and ankle issues I usually encountered. The insoles are well-made, long lasting, and comfortable. Highly recommend for foot health.

The best footbeds on the market!

My feet have mild arthritis and I suffered with pain and discomfort until I was introduced to SOLE by chiropractor! My feet are so appreciative! Thank you SOLE!

My Go-To for foot comfort

My feet have given me pain for years, and I've worn through a lot of insoles, trying to find something that works--and lasts. When a friend suggested I try SOLE, I thought, okay, I'll give them a go. That was at least 10 years ago, and I've never looked back. These insoles are by far the best I've tried, and they really do hold up well. I give them my highest recommendation.

Awesome footbeds

I love there footbeds, they are slim enough to transfer to all of my shoes and boots. No more pain in my feet.

Finally found insoles that work for me.

I have tried dozens of different footbeds over the years. Trying to ease my foot pain from working on old, hard concrete hangar floors. I have stacks of ones that I have tried and did not work. SOLE footbeds are the only ones that have helped. They have deep heel cups to keep my foot stable while walking carrying a heavy tool bag. The arch is just right. Many of the high priced ones have too extreme of an arch. The bottom layer is firm, and keeps your foot from squishing around in your shoe, like some of the overly cushioned ones. They have just the right amount of cushion. Also, they are not overly tall at the heel. I need this. Because of the damage to the nerves in the balls of my feet. I cannot have the forward rake. It causes too much pain. I need as neutral a platform as possible. The material layer that your foot sits on is extremely tough! It has held up to very demanding work conditions that include a lot of walking and an active work environment. I am completely sold on SOLE footbeds. Also, they are more reasonably priced than many of the ones that i have tried and did not work for me. Plus, they give you discounts once you become a customer. I wish I would have had them years ago! It would possibly helped keep my foot pain from getting worse as time went on, and would have saved me a lot of money wasted on footbeds that did not work. Thank you!! ............ Also, the thick ones are good if you have a little extra room in your shoes. The mediums are good as a direct replacement in shoes that fit just right. ...... My search for good insoles has come to an end!!!

Keri Stanley

Best sandals

I've been wearing SOLE products for a few years and love them. Great for pain relief.

PG

Super comfy flips

Finally! A flip that gives me metatarsal as well as arch support for metatarsalgia. From the first time I put them on I could walk around in them with no foot pain. I am usually a half size, and the recommendation to order the next full size up was a good one - they fit just right. I am very happy with the comfort, look and quality. I hope they hold up as well as I expect. You have a new fan, SOLE!

Life saver!!

I bought these along with ones with Met Pads. I prefer the met style. I wear safety shoes 8-10hrs a day and I no longer have any pain while wearing my shoes. I hope my plantar fasciitis will eventually heal now that I have found great supportive insoles.

Saved my feet!!

I started having pain from Plantar Fasciitis about 6 months ago. I paid $500 for custom orthotics. After 3 months of constant pain and going back to the foot doctor after my ankles were hurting. I came across SOLE online. I figured I had nothing to lose!! I wear safety shoes 8-10hrs on concrete flooring. I felt immediate relief. I'm hoping eventually I will be pain free now that I great support. But these were a life saver and I have now bought a pair for all my shoes!!

Happy feet

I have been wearing my inserts for years. They are in my running shoes, boots and daily sneakers. I cannot imagine not wearing them, everyone complains about knee or arch pain…. Not me

Great but squeaky

These have helped some arch pain I'd occasionally have while jogging. Only downside is they're squeaky so took off a star. Not a huge deal when outside by myself but does get annoying if I'm just walking. I saw "baby powder or anything that creates a barrier between the shoe and the bottom of the insole" could help with this but I've been too lazy to try.

Fantastic x2

I got a pair for my son and he liked them so much I got a pair for myself and have enjoyed both the comfort and reduction in foot pain.

Fantastic

My son was struggling on and off with achilles tendonitis and the Active Medium with met pad made a huge difference in his running comfort. He hasn't experienced the pain again since starting to use the insoles a year ago.

Awesome Footbed

Fits great, great support, back pain improved.

Great inserts

Bought them for support and pain relief from plantar fasciitis. Works great

Great inserts

Loved these inserts. I have a Medium and a Thin. Bought the Thin one for my sneakers. They help me with the arch and relieve the heel pain.

Bronwyn Amesbury

Comfort for summer

These shoes are well designed and have helped my foot pain improve over the weeks I’ve been wearing them. I wouldn’t wear anything else because of the difference they’ve made.

Amazing product

I’ve been wearing them for a couple of weeks and I love them. They’ve reduced the pain below my foot. Very comfortable!

Pain-free

I wear them in all my shoes since my Podiatrist recommended SOLE footbeds to prevent the recurrence of plantar fasciitis and I haven’t had any foot pain in years!

Excellent

Bought another pair after having such good results with first pair. They have helped my metatarsalgia pain greatly. Slowly wear into them; don’t expect them to be comfortable right away.

Relieved food pain

I had been having pain in the ball of my foot after working all day, or going on long walks. I purchased my first pair in December and have been very pleased. They really have helped give my foot the support it needs to alleviate the pressure on the ball of my foot. I will be buying more.

Feels great

I have been wearing these insoles for my metatarsal fallen bone arch for close to three weeks. I am being totally honest when I say I have NO more pain, I'm walking without a limp, and walking at my normal pace! I am thrilled. Thank you so much. Now I don't have to go to a foot clinic and dish out 450.00. Love my insoles.

Back Pain Relief!

Been wearing these for my back pain for the last 10 years. It helps so much. Need to change every 4-6 months to get great results!

Helpful

I have been struggling with severe foot pain for months. A friend of mine recommended these SOLE inserts and they have helped a lot.

Best footbed

I have plantar fasciitis and this footbed is the only insert that relieves the pain and keeps the fasciitis from becoming severe. I take the sneaker insert out and put the SOLE inserts in. They fit perfectly in the sneaker and have a great arch support.

SOLE

I've been wearing these for months while I work. I work long hours so I decided to try these out to help with lower back pain. Let me tell you this was the best thing I could have done.

Dressy without feeling flashy.

Once in a while I need to step up my work attire to something a little more business casual. But I can't wear the traditional dress shoes I used to be able to wear 20 years ago. Age and a brutal career have damaged and widened my feet. I needed something that would go with the skinny legs of pants these days and these are perfect. I was a little skeptical but definitely not disappointed. The first time I wore them, EVERYONE noticed and complimented me. It was so unexpected! They aren't even a flashy shiny shoe. My feet felt supported, but I still experienced some fatigue and pain by the end of the day (a chronic condition I deal with). But it was far less then if I'd worn a traditional store bought shoe. Because of my experience with the SOLE Flips, I bought these a size bigger than my usual size to avoid the need for an exchange and this was definitely a smart move as they do fit small. I did notice very quickly that the sole of these shoes (black) DO mark floors which is too bad. Maybe there's a way they could improve them to be non-marking. They also have the traditional sound of a dress shoe. You won't be sneaking up on anyone if you wear them (but at least you'll look great!)

Heidi

Sturdy and comfortable

After 20 years wearing work boots my feet have taken a beating (metatarsal fractures to prove it). I can't get away with cheap flimsy flip flops anymore (outdoors or around the house). I bought these to use as "house slippers" so I could still enjoy the comfort of bare feet but have the support for all the things that busy mothers have to do. These are serving me well! Although historically I prefer a soft bottom to avoid noise while everyone else is sleeping, the comfort of these flips make up for that one downside. I'm able to wear them to work all day in the kitchen and to clean the house top to bottom without any of the pain and fatigue I would normally experience. I did have to contact the company to exchange these for one size bigger as they fit small, but they were super responsive and fast. I wouldn't hesitate to try their other products either.

AMAZING product saved my feet

I am very flat footed. Add to that I had MAJOR ankle surgery on my right ankle (all 3 sides opened up, bone removed, ligaments cut and re aligned, screws in heel area) so it’s safe to say I have daily foot pain. After working all day my foot is stiff and sore like a peg leg. For an active person like myself it wasn’t good. Tried all kinds of creams, pain killers, even other inserts and orthotics…. Today I wore my SOLE inserts for the first time in my steel toed work boots…. It was LIFE CHANGING! After 8 hours on my feet, ladders, hauling heavy items…. NO FOOT PAIN!!! I’ve been home and rested… went to get up and it’s honestly like I have been given a new right foot! I am so thankful for my friend referring me to your company!!! I only wish I would have done it about 4 years ago!!! I can’t even thank you enough for these SOLE inserts…. You have given me my full life back! Thank you doesn’t seem appropriate, I will tell everyone I know about your amazing inserts. Lifetime purchaser here.

SOLE has been with me for more than a decade

I first began using SOLE as a foot support in my running shoes when I saw that ultra-endurance athlete Dean Karnazes had a signature footbed and endorsed them. I've utilized them inside my daily work boots for healthy foot support in recent years.... if you have lower extremity foot or joint pain this could be your ticket (without a podiatrist). I must emphasize, I only use the rubber bottom footbeds (the cork/biodegradable bottoms just fall apart too quickly). I've used them in military fitness wear. I once wore a pair during a grueling SF selection course.... which included a 25 mile trek with 45lbs pack for time. Along with multiple other long mileage ruck distances. These footbeds held up in flawless fashion, supporting my movement, and overall training health in noticeable ways over the rest of my class. If you are on your feet regularly occupationally, many times we forget about the critical nature of ensuring foot support is renewed and effective physiologically. It effects the entire day, and I'm so pleased to have found this brand a decade+ ago, and that they're still around!! SOLE has a world class product, and I see why Dean endorsed their gear. Thank you for contributing to overall health of Day in/Day outers everywhere!!!!

Alleviates foot pain

I have metatarsalgia, and many of my shoes were becoming too painful to wear. The pain was so persistent that it became difficult to live an active lifestyle. After a quick self-evaluation on the SOLE website, I found the appropriate insert for me. So far, it’s been super helpful and allowed me to return to my active lifestyle without any pain or discomfort. Highly recommend!

The Met Pad has resolved my chronic foot pain

These footbeds are thicker than most footbeds sold in footwear. You may need the thinner version. The met pad has made activities like skating, skiing and hiking fun again!

Mateo Slides

I’m wearing these slides as my indoor slippers. If you suffer from foot pain, the metatarsal support is excellent. You can wear socks to keep your toes warm.

Sole Performance insole

My recent purchase is for my wife as she was complaining about having foot pain and discomfort on her plantar fascia because of being on her feet, working for 12 hours. As soon as we put the SOLE Performance insole on her working shoes, the first week, she already noticed a big difference. From scale of pain of 10, to 5. She continues using the SOLE insole and it has been about a month now and the pain and discomfort is about 2-3. This insole is a great product, I like that it is heat moldable to customize to the contour of your feet. I myself is using this product in my cycling shoes. I highly recommend this product and thank you for developing a product that serves the purpose and works good 😊

Immediate plantar fasciitis relief

I have been wearing these exact insoles for 5 years since stumbling upon them! I was soo lucky…. At that time I was struggling with severe plantar fasciitis… was directed to an insole online store… typed in my ailment… and this product from SOLE was the first to appear. These insoles were stiff, supportive, and immediately reduced my pain by 90%. I ordered another pair immediately and rotated them through my running, work, and lifestyle shoes. Within 2 to 3 weeks my fasciitis was cured. Try these before you spend hundreds on custom orthotics…

Perfect!

I am a 30 year retired veteran, with many injuries to my feet and knees. These insoles have provided immediate relief to my pains and recoveries. I was very skeptical. I would absolutely recommend the SOLE insoles to anyone who experience feet and knee pains.

Excellent Support

I have a lot of foot pain, probably the result of 40+ years of jobs standing all day on hard floors, running, trail running, and playing soccer. Gave up running and soccer a few years ago. I put these in my cycling shoes. They provide excellent support, pain reduction, and my feet no longer cramp while cycling (which was a nuisance). I have a custom orthotic from a podiatrist. The SOLE insoles provide a similar amount of support at a fraction of the price. They are not quite as comfortable as the custom insoles, but the comfort definitely improves as they mold to your feet. .

So much better!

I have had issues with plantar fasciitis. It’s under control but on occasion, it flares up. I had issues while I was hiking. Thankfully my sister was with me and had experience with your insoles. I always listen to my sister (mostly). I started with one pair and was moving them between shoes. Quickly became tired of that and got a few more. I also have a friend who is on her feet for work all day and gets really sore feet and back. I ordered her a pair. Saw her the other day and she stopped, took off her sneaker and pointed at the insole. She said she does not wake up in pain anymore after a long day at work! I definitely recommend the product.

These are my favorite!

I've been wearing SOLE footbeds for years and years! I think these Active Thin with Met Pads are my favorite, but it depends on your shoes and what you are looking for. The video SOLE provides that explains the differences between the various footbeds is very helpful. I have chronic foot pain and these are great.

Great for big men

I have large feet (US16) and it's hard to find insoles that actually work for me. I got a pair of these for my work boots and love them. They molded perfectly to my feet and helped reduce my back pain.

Better than my custom orthotics!

I have a pair of these in almost every shoe I wear. They last a long time, keep the knee and ankle pain away and are much more economical than my custom orthotics were. I even have picked up a few pairs of their sandals over the last couple years.

Lifesaver

Union electrician on my feet all day in work boots. Been using these footbeds for almost 9 years now. Used to deal with terrible foot pain until I discovered these. I tell every tradesman I know. Great arch support.

Matthew Sonnenberg

Best flips I've worn

I have bad plantar fasciitis pain, I find I need to wear insoles to prevent my feet from being in excruciating pain. I bought these sandals to use as slippers in my house as I find shoes tend to be too hot when lounging. I have really liked them and they seem to fit to size really well and most importantly they help keep my pain low. My only dislike is that I hate the piece that goes in between my toes, I find it very uncomfortable and wish I had spent a little bit extra on the slide-style sandal. If you are okay with a piece of fabric between your toes these sandals are perfect.

THEY HAVE KEPT ME ON MY FEET

Around 25 years ago I developed a foot problem that made walking painful. A podiatrist made some hard plastic orthotics that helped a lot and a few years later I could get by without them. Then my wife gave me a pair of SOLE footbeds and I've been using them every day since. I have them in all my shoes and my foot pain, caused by a malformed bone has not returned. I often go on 5-mile hikes by the way, without difficulty.

Awesome footbeds

I've been wearing these for weeks now and the pain in my feet has diminished considerably. They are very easy to mold, very comfortable, and easily transferable between shoes.

Absolute Comfort

I have bad arthritis in both my knees. I recently bought a new pair of boots recommended by a drill instructor. Of course I also wanted great insoles. I had a couple of pairs and bought a couple of new ones to try. Then I got my SOLE inserts. I can say that my great new boots now have phenomenally comfortable and supportive inserts. And while my arthritis didn't miraculously disappear, these inserts greatly reduce the pain. My boots are wide width. I ordered the wide inserts. I had to trim them slightly. But better to have to trim them than not have them wide enough.

Donna

Can’t Do Without the Catalinas

I have terrible metatarsalgia (ball of foot pain) which is completely alleviated by wearing these. I discovered them in 2012 and I’ve worn them daily since. ❤️

Tracy MacIntyre

Best flip flops ever

I have been wearing these for weeks now and they are very comfortable and very supportive especially if you suffer from foot pain. These are now my everyday indoor shoes. I love them!! Please never discontinue these.

They work.

I had plantar's fasciitis. Painful, until SOLE

Great footbeds

These fit very well and I have no foot pain whatsoever when I walk which is usually at least 10k a day. Highly recommend

Solved my issues at a reasonable price.

I normally use custom footbeds to stabilize my foot and relieve foot pain. So far these seem to do the trick at a much more reasonable price point..

Wow

Love em! Ultra comfortable and helps my foot/knee pain. I put these in any and all shoes/boots I wear. Love the arch support and just amazing when I put them on.

Great orthotic footbeds for my running shoes

I've been wearing these for a few months and they are great, no foot pain.

No pain, comfortable

I often get sore on the bottoms of my foot while on a training run. Since I started using them I haven't had any issues. I was able to complete the 70mile race without pain. I am very happy with the product:)

Very happy with my purchase

I have developed mortons nureoma and its very painful sometimes. By using the Performance Medium with met pad, I can run forever without any problems. Highly recommend

Pleasantly surprised

I started to have heel pain when my work boots were weren’t tight enough. I figured I developed plantar fasciitis but usual treatment didn’t work. I bought SOLE footbeds and I found the heel pain has improved. This can be a result of time, usually treatment and using SOLE footbeds. I’m pleasantly surprised by the feel and advertising by the Darkhorse podcast

Custom Orthotics Step Aside

I was experiencing heel and other pain in my right foot. I am assuming this was caused by wearing my custom orthotics well beyond their expiry. They cost about $400 each. My Physiotherapist suggested SOLE, before considering getting fitted for custom orthotics. My pain is almost completely gone. They feel great each and every time I put them on. I don't know how long they will last (it has been about a month now), but they are a fraction of the cost of customs. I couldn't be happier with them.

Performance Thick with Met Pad

This product deliverers to relief pain from metatarsal inflammation. Unfortunately didn't fix the problem but helps.

They help so much with foot pain

I have sesamoiditis in my left foot it and it really helps with the pain. This is my second time wearing this particular item and it's changed my working out for the better, substantially.

Sarah O'Donnell

Awesome Support!

After owning a pair of SOLE shoes, this was my first time getting the inserts and I LOVE them!!. The cork absorbs impact and cushions great and the met pad and arch support keep my foot pain at bay. Looking forward to trying other styles.

Life changing

Without these insoles I never would be able to run pain free and as many km’s per week that I do. Couldn’t live without these SOLES.

Jeremy Ley

Hunting Boots and Work Shoes

Started using these in all my hunting boots after a recommendation from a Crispi boot tech when I couldn't get a proper fit. Worked great and then began putting them all my work shoes and my back pain resolved almost immediately.

Awesome corrective insole

It's awesome. really helped with my stance and helped with back pain from all the walking and standing I do at my work. Yet to see if it helps on the way the heels on my boots quickly wore off on one side but so far so good.

Fantastic footbeds

I purchased these for my skates. I have tried at least 5 types including custom footbeds, Superfeet, Dr. Scholls and Bauer heat molded speed plates. Given that the SOLE footbeds have all the foot relief remedies built into the sole, topped with the pad for comfort makes these the best yet for my skates. The pain I used to suffer starting half way through my ice times is gone! Now I can skate for hours.

Excellent footbeds!!!!

I recently went from regular Active SOLEs to Active MET Pad SOLEs. I like the hump in the middle of my instep. I can't quite describe the sensation/feeling. I also have other SOLEs without the MET Pad and I like to rotate between them in different types of shoes. I'm a runner and have many pairs of runners that I rotate depending on conditions, terrain, mood and pain. I currently have Active Thin, Active Medium and Active Thick. My feet do get wet from conditions which have steered me away from the Performance models. Depending on how your shoes fit, it's a little trial and error for which thickness you choose. I try and buy 2 thicknesses at a time as I want the ultimate fit in my shoes. On a side note; I purchased a pair of ON Trail waterproof runners and found that both 10.5 and 11 were too tight. Normally, I'm a 10.5, but in waterproof they want you to 1 up in size. I should have gone with 11.5, but found that with size 11 my toes were crunching the top of the shoes. After inserting the Active Thin SOLEs, my toes pulled away slightly and now touch slightly giving them the perfect fit! I finally have a pair of SOLEs in every shoe I own, including my boots. Some have MET pads some don't. I prefer it that way my feet get a fresh feeling every time I lace up a pair. I decided not to switch my SOLEs from shoe to shoe as every time I did, I felt I had to adjust them ever so slightly to get them to fit just right(personal preference). As I see it, every shoe is different and that's what makes up the difference in adjustment. For some, that may not be important, but for me, it's a matter of whether or not I can continue to run and stay away from injuries. I don't want to count how many I have, but I'm sure well over 10 pairs and counting!!!! Enough said...

Tom Land

Finally pain free

I have been wearing my SOLE insoles for almost a year and love them. I have many pairs in all kinds of shoes. For someone that dealt with planter fasciitis for over a year and a half these SOLEs were a savior! I still wear them everyday.

Very Best Footbeds

I ordered the SOLE Active Thick with Met Pad for my husband’s work-boots and he has found tremendous relief from his plantar fasciitis!! He has tried many other insoles but none helped the pain! He is so happy with the SOLE insoles that I am going to order and try them for my bad ankle and knees!

David Marchant

The Flip Flop for Plantar Fasciitis

I wore my first pair out last year, only because I wore them all the time. It was the only flip flop that alleviated my heal pain. Great design!

SOLE inserts make my workday less painful

I discovered SOLE Active Medium inserts about 15 years ago in the outpatient pharmacy of the hospital I use worked at. I was desperate for foot relief and by the time I started using the SOLE brand I wasn't so sure if I could continue to work the 12 hour shifts that I was assigned. At first I kept replacing my shoes and that did not work, then tried some inserts from nationwide retailers and I still pretty severe foot pain at the end of each work shift. One day In was in the hospital outpatient pharmacy and noticed the SOLE inserts and I also noticed what to at the time seemed to be premium prices for shoe inserts at $42 a pair. The pharmacy staff didn't know much about the SOLE brand ,but when I read the package product description and noticed the way the inserts were nicely packaged, I figured that the company must stand behind their inserts and truly believe in it seeing how they invested in the packaging also. I guessed right and it was night and day from the very first day I started wearing these . I trim them to the same size as the inserts I pulled from the new shoes and use my daily walking to mold them to my feet. That was 15 years ago and I've never had work shoes that did not have SOLE inserts in them. They are awesome! Lifetime SOLE customer,

Works as advertised

Fits well, molds appropriately and lessens pain

Great insoles for work

I’ve been buying these for a few years now. It usually lasts for about a year. I use them for work everyday in an industrial work area. I’m on my feet for most of the day. I was looking for insoles because my feet would hurt from standing all day. Once I got these, the pain went away. I usually replace them once a year and they keep working!

Choice of footbeds for Nordic walking!

I bought these for the metatarsal pad and they are amazing! Great support, great pain relief and fit true to size for my shoes. I wear a size 10.5 Altra and bought the 11 to trim it down and to have it a little wider. Just wish there was a bigger market for wide insoles with the metatarsal pad!

He won't use any other insoles now

My husband LOVES these insoles, and will no longer use any other insoles. He sees a dramatic difference in how his body feels after a long day of walking around New York City on a daily basis. With his old insoles, he would come home and his body would be in pain. With these insoles, he has a bounce in his step, and his back doesn't hurt by the time he comes home.

Great support for tired feet

I have high arches, and love to hike. I have been using these insoles for over five years and replacing them every six months, and I have no foot pain, even with long hikes

Game changer

I have very high arches and am very active in the outdoors. Hiking and snowshoeing are my regular activities. A few years ago I was struggling and unable to do any walking activities without extreme pain until a foot specialist told me about SOLE inserts. I am back to my regular activities.

I thought I was going to need orthotics :(

A sudden & very painful onset of metatarsal-area pain prompted me to look for a solution...even if just a temporary one. I bought two different (and less expensive) metatarsal foot pain relief products and both failed miserably. The SOLE Met Pad footbed provided instant relief...but more importantly, lasting relief. It hasn't eliminated my problem - obviously I have a structural issue that needs to be addressed, but when I'm wearing shoes with the SOLE insole inside, the pain instantly drops by about 50% and once I start walking, after about 50-100 steps, the pain drops another 25-40%. Sometimes it goes away completely. On a related note, if you are a DIY kind of person, I have also started the first set of exercises in the book - The Foot Fix: 4 Weeks to Healthier, Happier Feet by Yamuna Zake - and they have made a big difference too. But first, buy a couple of pairs of SOLE insoles...I have recommended them to two friends already :)

Best insert with met pads

I have been wearing these for few months. Initially had one pair but ordered two more pairs. I have experienced no forefoot pain since started wearing.

Best footbeds for all feet types!

As a physical therapist and runner, it’s hard to find solid and sturdy footbeds that last. Well, these insoles are the best! I wear them in my running shoes, work shoes, and kick around shoes. No pain and excellent arch support! No more pain equals happy feet! Recommend these to all my patients and friends!

Work footbeds

On concrete and steel all day these make huge difference in fatigue and pain.

Work footbeds

Had many of these. Last you about 6 months at 5 days last week say good bye to foot pain.

No more foot pain!

Since buying 4 pairs at a great price and inserting them in my work boots, casual shoes and hiking footwear all have resolved my plantar fasciitis.

Replaced $800.00 Orthotics!

I bought these for my wife, who has been dealing with severe foot pain for years. Even her $800.00 prescription orthotics had stopped helping. I convinced her to try SOLE, and bought her both the Active Wide Thick, and the Active Wide Thin, to fit her various shoes and boots. It has been about a month, and her foot pain has improved significantly!

Does the job

Perfect fit. No more foot pain.

Pain Free

I have forgotten how many pairs I have worn out ( which takes years). I have tried a lot of other inserts and these are the best by far.

Hiked the Appalachian Trail with my Soles!

I used my SOLE footbeds on a 900 mile hike on the Appalachian Trail. The product gave support and comfort the entire hike. While other hikers complained about their foot pain I remained pain free and happy!

Best insoles available.

Great product. I replaced my insoles every three months and it helps my knee pain to stay away.

Andrew

Great support and warmth

These are my first SOLE insoles. They are extremely warm in my winter hiking boots. The support took a week to break in for my feet to be comfortable, but now are absolutely fantastic. I have no pain and can walk for hours.

Pain free hiking

As a hardcore, hiker/backpacker, the pain in my knee and outside calf grew with every downhill step. I was turning to orthotics next when the salesperson at Valhalla Pure recommended SOLE. After reading, the pain relief section on SOLE's website I bought a pair immediately. Now after many months hiking and snowshoeing in my met pad soles, I am pain free. I will be purchasing more soles for all my footwear and am looking at purchasing SOLE footwear too.

Andre Remillard

Near instant relief of foot pain

I have been wearing this product in my hiking boots for about five weeks. The “home baked” heat molding process was easy and shaped the insert for a custom fit to my foot and my boot. The wool liner provides warmth in the extreme cold that I hike in. Excellent product. I was also pleasantly surprised by the company’s exemplary customer service when we had a size issue with another of their products. When I requested a return authorization number, SOLE responded quickly and with complete satisfaction beyond my expectations! Great product, great company!

Love these in my winter boots!

I put a pair of these Thick with met pad insoles into my big ass winter boots and they've made them become actually comfortable to wear! I also do not feel my bunion pain by the end of a day of wearing then anymore! Superior win!!

Great product

Fixed plantar fasciitis pain. Very happy with this product

Best footbed I’ve ever worn

Been suffering from plantar fasciitis and other foot pains to the point where I would call in at work because I wasn’t able to walk and my foot would be swollen. I decided to finally give this footbed a try. I’m in steel toes and on my feet all day. Second day wearing these, my plantar and foot pain is starting to go away and I’ve been able to start walking properly again without limping . I would recommend these to everyone and will purchase more for all my shoes.

No Pain

Had foot pain. Started wearing these insoles. Wow, amazing! Relieved the pain. I’m on my feet all day. I’m a nurse. I bought insoles for all my shoes.

foot soles

They sure help, no pain under the heel and muscles don't tighten anymore.

A game changer!

I have worn these soles for a few weeks and truly have been enjoying the comfort and pain free lifestyle I haven’t had for over a year. I wish I had these on months ago.. Thank you SOLE!

Best Insole Ever!

I had foot surgery 3 years ago and I will not wear any other insole. SOLE has saved me from foot pain.

Best for forefoot pain

I use in runners, shoes and boots. Great for forefoot pain. Paid much less for this product.

Can’t go without

I have knee and back pain due to flat feet. These insoles helps a lot. I have a 3 pairs. If you wear them every day, they will last a full year. These insoles never have a smell either.

Donna

Absolutely the Best Footbeds

I have worn these for years because they have a met pad. Without them I have so much foot pain I can barely walk. Thank you, SOLE!

Donna

Love the footbeds

I’ve been using the footbeds with metatarsal pad for several years. They are essential and alleviate my pain from metatarsalgia.

mike curzon

great comfort

my foot was suffering from plantar fasciitis and these have greatly alleviated the pain

Great footbeds!

I started using them for pain relief. They are so comfortable, I now use them all the time!

Great!

These have helped tremendously with my right heel pain! Very comfortable and effective.

Best footbeds I’ve ever used.

I’ve been using SOLE footbeds for years, in my hiking boots and in my everyday walking shoes. They've helped my high arch problems and have provided excellent support resulting in more comfort and fewer foot pain. I’m hard on my shoes and put a lot of miles on them every month. SOLE footbeds are my go-to footbeds, and have performed better than my custom made ones for way less money. And they last a long time.

Help with plantar fasciitis

I’ve been wearing these for a few weeks. Last year I had plantar fasciitis in one foot and it took a long time to resolve. When the pain started in my other foot I ordered these. I follow Philip Carcia on Instagram and he had recommended them. I figured if a guy hiking all those miles liked them then they would be worth a try! I still need to do a lot of stretching to help with the pain but I find these help - they are very comfortable and feel good in my feet. I wear them in all my shoes (running, hiking, and casual wear). They fit great.

Transformed my footwear

These soles made a great looking but painfully unsupportive pair of sneakers to my favourite sneakers! My feet feel so rested after putting these into my shoes.

Exceptional

I've been using these for over years which has allowed me to enjoy pain free 15k daily hill hikes

Sam

Best Flip for Support and Stability

I was diagnosed with mild planter fasciitis back in 2013, SOLE was introduced to me by my podiatrist. I bought by first pair back in 2014 and since then I only buy flips from SOLE. This flip-flop is magic, the stability and support you get from these flips is unparalleled. Not only it saves you from the high arch pain but the stability and comfort gives you so much confidence while walking. I would eyes closed recommend the flip-flops from this company, sharing my 8 years of experience, I have multiple pairs of SOLE flips. With these flips always go one size down if you are 7.5 or 8.5 or 9.5. I am size 7.5 and i always order size 7.

Best foot beds on the market!!

I have been wearing these foot beds since it got too cold for my sandals. They continue to provide me with the perfect support and have eliminated all foot ankle and knee pains. A must to try before spending hundreds on orthotics that did nothing for me!

Really pleased

I've been using these insoles for a few weeks now in my work shoes. They're great! I'm on my feet for at least 8 hours every shift, with a lot of walking. No more foot or hip pain. I highly recommend them.

Good quality, firm support where needed

I am very athletic and have a very high arch, along with plantar fasciitis and rheumatoid arthritis. These footbeds provide firm support where needed. Haven't had any pain or cramping since I started using them. Highly recommend to anyone with foot pain to try these.

Todd McKinnon

Terrific foot support!

I have "SOLE" inserts in most of my footwear/shoes. They have solved my arch/foot problems! I love the fit and comfort that "SOLE" products provide and I can again walk, hike and walk 18 holes of golf without pain or discomfort. I also love the variety of products available and I really like the value/cost of the "SOLE" products! I had previously tried many different arch support products but I am now sold on "SOLE"!

Best Ones Out There

I’ve had these sort of soles for years now. I usually bought them at Marks but they stopped carrying them. So I tried different ones only to have worse back problems. Luckily, I found this site where they sell them. Before these footbeds I would constantly walk in pain from my flat feet and would need to see my chiropractor almost weekly. If it wasn’t for SOLE I’d be walking barefoot.

Best foots beds for the money

I’ve been wearing these in my work boots, these foot beds have stopped my back and knee pains while I’m at work for 12 hrs. I bought more and now have them in my hiking boots.

Performance Medium with Met Pad

I've used these for about a month and they really are very comfortable and I have no foot pain.

Cliff Brown

Greatly reduced my foot pain

I noticed that my big toe pain caused by walking eighteen holes was greatly reduced. My feet generally feel better. Strongly recommend this product!

John

Knee savers

I have very flat feet and spend a lot of time in work boots. Replaced the original insoles that came with my everyday boots with the Work Medium SOLE and I haven’t had knee pain in weeks.

Real quality, unique design, subpar durability?

These were purchased to help with plantar fasciitis pain and right when I received them I knew they were different from any other insole I'd used before. These insoles have very prominent sections of padding that provide support to portions of your foot that would only be barely touched by most other mainstream insoles, especially along the arch and ball of foot. The design of these is very appealing and unique, and the cork material is very satisfying to the eyes and feet! I would definitely recommend these to people looking for more comfort or dealing with pain, as these really helped me. The only issue I have is that after about a week or two, the heel portion, which was initially nicely padded, of the insole compressed down to almost flat, leaving the heel mostly unprotected from impact. The cork material might contribute to this but I also tend to put extreme pressure on my heels. I got these on clearance but next time I'd go for the Active models as they're said to be more durable. But if you have even pressure distribution, definitely check these out!

Excellent work shoe

I’ve been wearing these for years due to plantar fasciitis Great arch support No more foot pain thanks to my soles. Runs about 1/2 size small-normally wear 7.5 and the 8 fits perfectly

Relieved my pain

Had tried adding key pads to other inserts. Never fit or felt as good as these do. Relieved pain on bottom of feet and along top of toes.

Good footbeds

I have a fallen arch and these have improved the pain in my foot.

They work for me

Tried one pair as recommended by a friend. Took a while getting used to them as expected. Happy with relief of pain while wearing the pads. Bought a few more pair and likely getting a few more.

Excellent footbeds

I have metatarsalgia and was prescribed orthotics which were hugely expensive. I find these just as effective and much more affordable. I have them in all my shoes now - for biking, skiing , running, hiking, and everyday wear. It is so good to be able to do all my regular activities again without painful feet.

Outstanding flip flops

I’ve had nagging plantar fasciitis for months. I recently took a trip to San Diego and wore these flip flops the entire time (which involved 34 miles of walking over 3 days). I had zero pain and very happy feet.

So comfortable!

I felt pain relief and greater foot stability after installing these in my new shoes, which are wide width.

Best Insoles for Flat Feet

I have been wearing these for more than 10 years. They were recommended to me by a physical therapist. I have flat feet which causes pain in my shins and knees, these insoles give me the support that I need and take away the pain.

Perfect In Evey Way

Worked wonders for my foot pain. Since I started wearing them, my plantar fasciitis and metatarsal pain have been relieved. Thin insoles fit very nicely in low volume shoes.

Autumn S.

Comfortable

Really nice and soft but helps with foot pains

Best foot beds I ever bought

I have been wearing these regularly. Very comfortable and my feet don’t feel any pain anymore

David Foreit

Great footbed and even better value!

I have all my patients with foot/knee/ hip pain put these on their shoes with great results. Great value. Much better than going to the podiatrist for “custom” and VERY expensive footbeds

Comfortable footbed for running

The cork footbeds are very comfortable! I have very flat feet, and I don't have any pain after a good jog! Recommended!

Very durable

I've used SOLE Active Thick for over 15 years and continue to use them in every pair of sneakers I own. It works great and took away my pain from plantar fasciitis.

J. Lawrus

The go to flipflops!

As a repeat purchaser these are my go to sandals for everyday else. Always help with my flat feet pains!

Robyn Horsager

Stops foot pain!

I put these in some flat canvas shoes and they made them so comfortable! Highly recommend!

Fixed my knee pain

I couldn’t believe all I needed was inserts to fix the pain I had in my knee. They are exceptional inserts and I’ll be using them the rest of my life.

Perfect

I have mortons neuroma. Very painful. These insoles support my feet perfectly to almost eliminate any flare ups. They are very comfortable and long lasting. Highly recommend.

No more foot pain

I’ve been wearing them for several years, and they were finally reaching the end of their life, so reordered them. Love, love love them

Maria Hoffmeyer

Still Loving These

I cannot imagine life without these after having them around now for almost a year. Walking around the house first thing in the am was soooo painful before I had these to ease my way into the day. They are also perfect for a rest from other shoes when my forefeet needs to spread out. I have a wide hyperflexible foot with a high (narrow girth) arch, dorsal bunions, Morton's neuroma and sometimes nerve entrapment.

Kristen Smith

My new favourites

My usual summer flip flops were giving me lots of foot pain this year. I was already ordering the SOLE footbeds so thought I’d try these out too. Super happy I did. Look great and feel great!

jeff elliott

Comfort

Use them every day due to my flat feet and feel less pain in ankles and knees. Very comfortable.

Todd Coles

Top quality flips

The support these flips provide is unlike any others I have ever tried. I can actually wear these without worrying about foot pain afterwards like the typical flip.

Great footbeds!

I bought an expensive pair of shoes that were very uncomfortable and gave me back pain. After buying my Sole's and wearing them in these shoes, no more back pain.

Great boot inserts

I had been suffering from plantar fasciitis for months. I put these insoles into a recently purchased pair of Blundstone boots and they helped reduce the pain tremendously.

Best footbeds

I have been wearing SOLE for now 4 years exclusively after having a series of foot pains. The best pair of footbeds you can buy and rely on

Very impressed

I tried various off-the-shelf insoles to deal with ball of foot pain usually experienced when playing sports. I must say that the "Active with the met pad" model by SOLE has been the most effective for me in relieving pain and discomfort. I've worn these now for the past several weeks and the insoles seem to have molded well to the shape and contour of my feet and are very comfortable. Very satisfied!

Will Henderson

Great flip-flop

I have been wearing these as my around-the-house pair of sandals to try to lessen walking around barefoot too much. I am an active runner and have had plantar fascia issues off and on over the years. Along with more stretching, switching to SOLE flip-flops has significantly helped relieve those issues. I haven't had any re-occurrence of my previous pain, so I have increased my wearing of SOLE flip-flops and am very happy about it!

Best Insoles Ever

Used these for weeks at work and loved them. Relieved foot and back pain.

Natalie

Cute and reduce pain!

I absolutely love these shoes. Not only do they suit my style and are great for work or walking around the neighbourhood, but the footbeds really help with my alignment and reduce my lumbosacral/SI joint pain. Thanks SOLE for making attractive orthopedic quality footwear!

Karen Ricker

Great Support in a Flip Flop

The Baja Flip sandal has been my go-to shoe all summer long! The arch support is TERRIFIC on my flat-ish feet - enough to keep me from pronating, but not so much that it causes me pain. I have very narrow but long feet and generally wear about a 10-1/2 in closed shoes - but the Women’s size 9 in the Baja Flip is perfect. I’ve ordered them in 4 different colors!

James DeMerit

Great insoles

I bought my first pair of insoles about six years ago to releive plantar pain and they really did the job! Since then I have purchased four more pairs and use them in all my shoes. So far, no more plantar problems.

Michael

Good Arch Support

These shoes help with the pain from scar tissue near the arch of my foot. They are very comfortable to walk in and didn't take a long time to break in. I also like the color and style.

Saved my training

I was struggling with chronic knee issues. My doctor did an analysis and said something like SOLE would change my running life. And it has. It helped prevent ITB pain. If you’ve been recommended orthopedics I highly recommend these!

Foot pain?

I purchased these because I have neck pain from an old injury. I can't walk more than a 10 minutes without stopping from pain and headaches, but since I found these I can finally keep up with my wife shopping the Mall all day.

JQ

BEST footbeds EVER!

I've been wearing SOLE footbeds and flipflops for 15+ years and have had ZERO foot pain ever since my first pair! (Waaayyy better than my $400 orthotics!!!) I have these in all my shoes: work (5+ hrs, in an industrial kitchen on cement floor), everyday shoes & dress shoes. Thank you, SOLE, for saving me from a lifetime of foot pain (plantar fasciitis)!!

Great

I stand on my feet all day everyday for work, and these have been so helpful. My foot pain has gone away. Very comfy, highly recommend

Best Friend

Besides my four legged best friend basenji Lucy, my insoles are my second best friends! Taking walks is no longer painful, I can keep up with her for her daily two long walks! Thank you SOLE both Lucy and me!

Cynthia Murphy

SOLE saved my life

I was suffering from PTTD (Posterior Tina Tendon Dysfuncttion) and was told by one podiatrist that I need to have surgery. I saw another orthopedic doctor for a second opinion who said that there was another option. I saw a PT who gave me some exercises and I bought the SOLE inserts for my tennis shoes that he recommended. I could not believe the change in my pain since I starting wearing them. I no longer run around barefoot or in flip flops. I ordered a pair of the Malibu sandals. It is the first thing I put on my feet when I get out of bed. It is amazing. No more pain!! They are cute too! Thank you for keeping me from having a very long recovery from a surgery. Your product is life changing!!

Maria Hoffmeyer

My Only Flip

I have been wearing Balboa since fall of 2021 when I was searching for relief for my painful feet. I have multiple things going on - hallux rigidus, Morton's foot, high arch, hyperflexible foot and nerve entrapment. These flips allow me to walk around when I first get up without pain.....without excruciating pain. I don't wear them for hours as I need more support, but these have just the right contour and cushion for the first segment of my day. Sooo grateful to SOLE for this product as well as the insoles.

Mark Palines

The only flip flops where my heels don’t hurt after wearing!

I have worn many flip flops over the years and after hours of walking around in them, my heels would be in pain. I can wear these Catalina Sport Flips all day long and not have any pain the following morning. Truly amazing product.

Hope Kuo

Goldilocks Flip Flop

I have tried a least a dozen other flip flips/sport sandals to find some that didn’t cause pain to my back and legs after walking and standing. This was it! I have had lumbar surgeries and my back, legs and moderately arched foot are just cranky with the wrong support. I’ve sworn loyalty to SOLE inserts in my athletic shoes for years and don’t know why it took me so long to realize they also made flip flops. I put this on and it was perfection right away - not too hard, not too soft, arch placement was supportive but not aggressive and the straps were soft yet keep the shoe right in place. I have since purchased the Baja (slightly harder sole, very stable) and Monterey cork (firmer yet) but the Catalina is my favorite for putting on in the morning and wearing all day.

Best footed ever

My wife has been wearing them for work and they reduce foot pain a lot.

David

Comfortable, supportive and light weight!

Having had lots of foot issues, (plantar fasciitis mostly), flip flops are not generally a good match for my feet. Most of them on the market have no support in the food bed. However, SOLE flip flops offer a comfortable, supportive foot bed that allows my feet to do their job without any pain or issues. They are very lightweight and comfortable to walk in. The straps don't give me blisters either. To make them perfect for me, they would have a more durable outsole on them, however, I guess that might take away from their light weight.

Joanne

Best flip flops ever

For my feet, these are the best flip flops ever. I have had bunion surgery and have nerve pain. I wear these year round because they are the only shoe that works for me. The metatarsal pad is incredible.

Sheri Unrau

Comfortable Casual

Since I have plantars fasciitis- I have been able to wear flip flops without pain. These have provided me with the support I need.

Best Orthotics I Have Ever Owned

I discovered these amazing footbeds when I was doing some research on arthritis relief for the feet/ankles/knees. Over the last couple years, my arthritis has gotten so bad in my lower extremities that I struggle to walk without a cane or walking stick. When I started searching for ideas to help alleviate the worsening pain, I found a number of articles recommending the footbed offerings from SOLE. I was leery that they could make too great a difference, but even a small improvement was welcome. When I received my footbeds, I immediately placed them in my walking shoes and tried them out. It took a couple wearings for the footbeds to completely form to my feet, but the improvement was nearly immediate! After I stand and stretch a bit, I can get around so much better now. I am able to go grocery shopping (or anywhere else for that matter) without taking my cane with me. I have even been able to return to the gym and walk a couple miles with limited pain. These footbeds have been a true life-changer!

Relief!

I'd purchased 'better' shoes to try to alleviate the knee pain from a slight pronation, but it wasn't until I added these that I finally had shoes that fit comfortably. I have purchased several additional pairs.

Not sure yet

Took me 2 tries to cook the footbeds sufficiently -- more like 3+ min than two. Can't use the metatarsal pad since no position seems right. Might try cutting one pad to a better shape. Cautiously optimistic that toe pain is abating with weeks of wear, but also alternate with another insole/shoes.

Best Footwear for Plantar Fasciitis

SOLE flip flops are must have. I have wearing them since 2013. I have plantar fasciitis and, thanks to SOLE I have been pain free. This is the first time I purchased the flip flop with cork material, I am super impressed with the quality, much better feel. I am size 7.5 and always order 7 but with the cork footbeds I would recommend going half a size up.

Greatest Foot beds ever

I have been using SOLE footbeds for weeks and they make my feet feel so much better. At the end of a long day on my feet I have no pain like I did before I tried them!!!

Dean

Changed my life

My foot pain is completely gone. I wear SOLE products in every shoe I own and I’ve never been disappointed. Canadian company with amazing shipping. If you’re thinking about it, just get some. You’ll be happy!!!

Excellent Product

I've worn my SOLE insoles for about two weeks. After a few days, I noticed no foot pain or aching. I have no specific injury or pain, just aching. My feet feel good at all times. Very good product, and very comfortable.

SOLE insoles

Excellent value . Bought for my husband who constantly complained foot knee and hip pains. He says his feet no longer hurt at days end and he is able to walk again in evenings. Very comfortable and excellent fit

Jenny A Moffat

My favourite sandals

I have been wearing these for several weeks now. I love them! They are super comfortable and because of the met pads I do not have pain from Morton’s Neuroma. I really like the materials used. Took a few days to break in but I can definitely recommend them. Thanks!

SOLE Medium

I have been wearing the medium performance insoles for several years now. I am on my feet about 14 hours a day at work and walk about 12 to 18,000 steps on an average work day carrying tons of weight. These are the best insoles I have ever owned I now have them in my tennis shoes too. They last a long time and don't seem to get worn out very quickly like other shoe insoles. But I do rotate them daily. I cannot work without them. I have a high arch and plantar fasciitis and have zero foot pain with these inserts. I love them.

The best insoles ever!

This insole with met pad has saved my feet when wearing my Rykas. They are in my exercise shoes, and while I no longer jump as high or run, my feet are supported and without pain. The met pad has been the key. All my shoes, whether for exercising, walking or just everyday wear have Soles. Soooo much better than what I got from the foot doctor!

Lori Barnes

Love Love Love!

Although I have owned several pairs of rubber SOLE Sandals, this was my first pair of Cork SOLE Sandals. And let me tell you... these are amazing! All the support my feet need, pain relief for my knees and hips... with just a little bit of dressier appearance. I can still wear them casually, but even pull them off at work! I've been caught in a rain shower and both the cork and fabric strap have dried perfectly fine. You definitely need to try these!

Maria

Necessary Flip

I bought these last fall as I was working my way out of a bad nerve entrapment issue causing pain in my heel that stopped me from walking, SOLE insoles have been very important and time on these Balboa Flips is essential, especially first thing in the morning. I have a high arch. These fit perfectly and give just the right amount of support and cushion to get my foot used to the transition into the day, I hope that this sandal will still be represented in the new line up! Thank you SOLE for getting me back on my feet!

Worked Great

These insoles worked as advertised, my foot pain diminished after about a week.

Happie Tootsies

My order was shipped promptly and as soon as I fitted the SOLE insoles to my shoes, my feet are much less painful and I am much happier: I could not recommend any product higher. If you need support I hope you find the fit and comfort that I have with SOLE insoles: I now have 3 pair distributed between my riding/walking shoes and hiking boots. Cheers and I hope each of you reading this can achieve more miles with more smiles from such quality foot support .

Foot pain relief

I was suffering from Morton's Neuroma for years & finally decided to go see a podiatrist. They suggested I try SOLE footbeds before anything else. Wow, what a difference in my day to day! I love them! I even got a second pair & recommended them a few times already.

Helpful to reduce my foot pain due to nerve issues.

I think these have been helpful for sure, especially in my running and cycling shoes. I really like the idea of the cork footbeds, but I’m not sure they will keep their shape as well over time, and perhaps that met pad will disappear. It would almost be a good idea to reinforce that area so it cannot collapse in the future, perhaps with a removable piece in case the met pad becomes bothersome. I may try some of the standard non cork met pad Sole insoles.

Heel pain gone

Put these in my golf shoes. Heel pain went away and scores improved.

Nothing short of magical

I work in the events industry, so I spend an average of 8 hours standing in dress shoes - and it’s usually on concrete. By the end of an event my feet are killing me, and that translates all the way through my hips, and my lower back too. I’ve had these for about 2 months now and can truly say they are life changing, and make my dress shoes feel like runners. The pain is gone after a long event, and it sure beats ugly looking supportive dress shoes. Thank you SOLE!

Eliminates foot pain

Got these to help with my metatarsalgia, and they have worked wonders! I wear can hike all day now without any pain. Would recommend!

Karen luzny

Flatfoot style

We discovered in the spring that my 13 yr old daughter has flat feet and was experiencing pain in her knees and back. Not cool? But what was even less cool was the prospect of not being able to wear flip flops. When I remembered that SOLE had flip flops made using the footbeds it was an easy decision to order. They were delivered within days of ordering and have been worn daily. My daughter doesn’t complain about knee or back pain and always looks hip and with it.

I have happy feet again!

My foot pain is gone. I purchased this product for my low profile sneakers and casual shoes. I already own SOLE insoles for my sport runners for jogging. They just didn't fit my other shoes for work (retail). I gave these insoles a chance and they didn't disappoint. I have been wearing them everyday for approx a month now. I am impressed with the cushion from the cork.

Great product

I have had multiple surgeries on my knees and walking proved painful most days. Since I have started using SOLE insoles the pain is minimal, which is wonderful. I buy quality shoes and quality insoles and they are worth every penny spent. I switch the insoles out every 4-5 months and keep on truckin. Thanks SOLE

GREAT!

I have fallen arches. I know when it's time to either buy new shoes or replace the arch support. In the most recent case, it was both. The signals that my body produces so that I realize that "it's time", I start to get pain that radiates to my right knee and then the right hip, if I wait too long to replace. Once I do make the correction, the pain dissipates within a day or two. I have been using SOLE products for over 10 years and I have tried other products! For-me, these are the best.

Penny Perry

BEST on Market

I was suffering from PTTD and Plantar fasciitis along with knee and hip pain. After wearing the Baja Sandal for one day there was an incredible difference. This sandal did what 10 weeks of physio couldn't do. I am the proud owner of 5 pairs and have now ordered inserts for my winter footwear. THIS WAS DEFINITELY THE BEST SHOE EVER. I have encouraged many people to try it out and not one single note of negative feedback.

Life changing inserts

Avid golfer, had significant plantar fascia strain in my left heel due to pronation and high unsupported arches. Since wearing these in my daily shoes I have zero fascial pain. Highly recommend

FOR ME, THE BEST OF THE BEST

I have SOLE shoe liners in all of my all-day shoes, about a half dozen pair. They make pain free days for my feet, and that's a major upgrade for me. My wife gave me my first pair maybe eight years ago and it made quite a difference for me. This is my first pair with met pads and I believe they are a little better than the regular thick ones for my feet. Your results may vary.

Sharon Parker

Fashion and function

These are my third pair of sandals and once again they are beautiful and very comfortable. Helps greatly with plantar fasciitis and I highly recommend them for alleviating foot pain.

Glad I got the thin size

I’m exclusively a barefoot shoe wearer but was getting a lot of knee pain from walking so ordered insoles for my barefoot shoes before a trip to New York. So glad I ordered ‘thin’ as these were tight getting into my barefoot sneakers. I also didn’t think the ‘wide’ size was really wide enough for my monster feet but once they were in the shoes it was fine. I can’t really say whether these helped with my knee pain as it was still very much present during our trip but I think they helped a bit, and we did a lot of walking!

Works great

I have Morton's Neuroma and these insoles work just as well as Birkenstocks with no pain at all! I had hoped it would be a little narrow to fit in some of my flats. They do say you can cut it to size but I was nervous about doing that and I usually have to switch the insoles between shoes I'm wearing so that isn't ideal. But still, they do the job of getting rid of the pain, so I am happy!

Penny Perry

Best ever!!

I cant say enough how great thes flips are for my foot pain! They did what $600 in orthotics failed to do! Customer service is outstanding! They are quick to sort out any problems that may come up, and make ordering so simple! Gold Star rating

Christopher Kappler

Comfy and fashionable

I love wearing sandals but with my arch I needed sandals with support. I got my first pair of SOLE 10 years ago and I can wear them all day, pain free. Just like everything in life, you get what you pay for.

Love them

Got them earlier this year & using them in my running shoes. I walk quite a bit & they are very comfortable. I need the met pad and the pain in my foot has subsided because of these insoles. I have a wide foot size 6 1/2 & ordered a size 7. They fit perfectly. I will buy them again.

Kathryn McArthur

Comfy

I bought this shoe because I have flat feet and after wearing a flat sandal for a full day, my feet ache. Wore these for a 2.5 hr walking tour and no pain. Only negative is that the shoe looks large where my smaller toes are. It's almost like it should have more of an angle cut. Hard to explain. Arch support is in the correct spot so I know it's not too big. Otherwise very comfortable and worth the investment.

So good..

I have had SOLE insoles for many years now. The SOLE insole features that works for me are: 1) Rigid - I hate soft insoles. They are hard to put in and have no support. SOLE insoles is just perfect going in. 2) Support - It took awhile but once the insole got molded to my feet, it feels so good. No more feet pains.

I love it

I love the met pad active! I suffer from knee injuries, plantar fatigue and back pain. I've been using SOLE for several years now they are a game changer! I can walk my dogs with more confidence and less pain. I love them so much, I have them in all my shoes and boots. I also have metatarsal foot pain and the met pad really helps that. I used to use those sticky pads and never could get them adjusted right, the sole with met pad is perfect for me! Thank you so much for easing my pain.

Active Medium

These insoles are well made & durable .I tried them for a month. They fit my foot well but I need more cushioning for all day use. Perhaps the "Active Thick" would be better for my heel & arch pain..? I have considered this but the cost of upsizing my shoes to accommodate the insole is not attractive.

Joan Betton

Best Sandal Ever

Just purchased my second pair of SOLE sandals. Love them!! These sandals are so good for relieving pain for planter fasciitis and bunions which I have both. The cork that is used to make the Women's Laguna Flip is very cushioning but great support. These sandals will last, and will only get more comfortable with age. I highly recommend these sandals

good stuff

These seem to work well and have helped my standing and walking posture. I made a mistake on the order and immediately emailed them and they adjusted correctly, so good customer service on that. I've never used orthotics before and found some lower leg pain. I asked the person who recommended them (my yoga instructor) who said that I should "ease into them", wearing them only a little each day and building up to more time. So I've taken to that and still only wear them for short walks. I do hope to wear them for longer periods. But even with the short walks, the improvement regardless of what I am wearing on my feet is evident. so, good stuff...

Awesome product

The product was recommended to me by a friend due to plantar fasciitis. I was a little hesitant and skeptical but it has made a significant difference. After wearing SOLE for a couple of weeks I did not feel my heel anymore. Being a trainer and dance coach, I can now get back to all activities, pain free. This will not be my last pair!

Straighten Up Those Ankles

My new Asolo walking shoes almost fit my very narrow feet. But when I realized that my ankles and feet were rotating inward, I tried some SOLE Active Medium footbeds. But they were too thick. So I ordered a pair of SOLE Active Thin footbeds. The heat fit formed these to my feet, but kept the arch high. My ankles and feet are straight again, and my shoes fit so much better. I've walked many miles in them over the last six weeks both over rough terrain and on concrete paths with no foot pain. If these Thin footbeds are as tough as their thicker siblings (and I think they are), they should last for years.

These Really Work

I had the painful condition of PTTD (acquired fallen arches). I needed very major and specific support for my feet. I had heard about this product on a podiatry blog and decided to try it. I followed the instructions on heat molding, creating the future shape that my foot required to return to functioning. I could feel the relief on the very first walk with them. I showed them to my podiatrist, who gave her full approval to the shaping. They are lightweight, cushy, yet offer amazing support. I bought several more pairs to have them in all my shoes. If you need more support than you get from standard inserts, these are for you. If you need a custom made orthotic, you may want to try these first. They really work. Now several months later, my foot is no longer painful and I am back to running - shorter distances this time. Very satisfied customer.

Tspoon

Cured my tendonitis

I have suffered with posterior tibial tendonitis for YEARS, and these shoes have been a life saver. I wear them as slippers in the house and they have cured my tendonitis. For the first time in years I can walk pain free.

Very effective ! Say good bye to heel pain!

These insoles work great! I have them in every pair of my shoes. The heel pain from plantar fasciitis has not reoccurred since using them, which is huge because I am on my feet all day.

Keeping me moving

I have been using these inserts in my hiking boots for about five years. I buy a new pair of Oboz boots every year and a new pair of SOLE inserts to go with them, as recommended by my podiatrist.Just before getting my latest pair, I had begun to notice back pain when walking. This went away immediately when I began wearing the new boots with inserts..I'm 76 years old, over weight and walk one to two miles per day. This combination of boots and inserts are vital to keeping me moving. I and my dog thank you.

Just Amazing

For years I've had massive pain in my feet due to fallen arches. Working 10 hour shifts became a nightmare. Honestly I'm not even sure how I came across SOLE insoles..but I thank the Lord above that I did! They are true to size. The Thick has firm padding which I love. And sturdy arch support that does not hurt my arches (flat feet). If you ave pronation problems you really should try these.

Very satisfied with Active Thick insole

I've now tried 3 insoles and my preferred is Active Thick without Met pad. Better to order the larger size and it's easy to trim it down to fit perfectly. Relieves foot pain for outdoor work boots.

Ann Gilbert

Pretty and practical

I have wide feet and these sandals are perfect. The support is wonderful and difficult to find in a pretty flip flop. I have ankle pain from injuries and wearing these support sandals lessens the pain. Some of my other sandals feel fine when wearing but my ankles hurt after taking them off. That does not happen when I wear these.

Fantastic Relief and Comfort

I am an older retired male who hikes almost daily in the local hills and mountains near Vancouver, BC. I was finding the one foot in particular was becoming progressively more painful and required icing after my hikes. It was getting to the point where I was starting to wonder if my hiking and backpacking days were coming to an end. I can't say enough about the SOLE Active Thick insert with the built in met pad. Over the past 2 months my condition has dramatically improved and continues to do so the more I use this product. I also purchased a second set for another pair of shoes as well as the flip flop sandal with the met pad so that my foot is supported even when I am not hiking. I am now looking forward to a coming summer filled with a number of multi-day backpacking trips in the Canadian Rockies and Vancouver Island. Thanks for providing such a brilliant product line.

One word- Amazing!

I love running and working out but have flat feet. For months my hip and knee have been hurting. I decided to give these insoles a try and can’t believe how amazing they are. They provide the perfect arch support to align my body. No more pain! I bought three pairs!

Adam Sherlock

Flippy Floppies

I have been searching for a while for a flip flop with good arch support. For years I’ve dealt with foot and knee pain from having flat flip flops. I was excited to come across these when I bought insoles. These are comfortable to wear, my feet don’t slip around when wet and they have good traction on wet ground. The only setback would be the hard plastic piece that goes between your toes, that might be more comfortable if it was fabric. But it was only the start of the season and my callous hadn’t formed yet. I would definitely buy these again. Thanks

Huge difference

I have been wearing SOLE for years. My doctor recommended them for me because I was having a lot of pain in my foot (arches). When it came time to replace my old pair I was able to purchase them online. Which was much easier than trying to get an appt at the doctors office lately.

Exponential Improvement

I can't believe how much difference these Active Thins w Met pad have made. Huge improvement in hip pain. History of injuries, twice broken right heel, never did knit back together properly, the arch dropped and basically the whole foot changed shape and function, been awful. Affected the entire right leg. The SOLE insert is the only one since 2007 that's given me any relief and stabilized my foot. It allows me to have a normal heel to toe roll on the bad foot. Used the size chart to order correct size women 10 and fit is perfect .

Comfort and pain relief with cork SOLE flips

I bought and wore out 3 pairs of cork SOLE flips years ago. I was crushed when SOLE stopped offering them. I have bought the EVA SOLE flips but never liked them quite as much, so when I saw the cork SOLE flips were once again available I instantly ordered a pair. The cork does feel a little different than what I previously ordered, although it’s been so long I’d be hard pressed to say in what way. Regardless, I’m happy to have them!

great product

This product was recommended to me by my sports medicine physician. It has delivered a great experience all around, mitigating foot pain due to a neuroma and keeping me on the right track to good foot health. Thank you.

Great insoles

These insole products have corrected a problem with my daughters walking and alleviated pain. I am delighted. This was why we ordered a second pair and will order more for each of her pairs of shoes. When ordered, they arrived two days later. Great work. Thank you!

pain no more

These insoles eliminated the foot pain I experience while cycling from Morton's Neuroma. I highly recommend these for anyone else suffering from foot pain.

Pain Free

Sometimes a product comes along that just changes the way you view a product. I have tried many different shoe inserts to help with pain in my feet and I have never found anything that totally stops pain in my feet the way that the SOLE inserts do. These inserts made me wonder if I was in my 20s again. If you have ever had foot problems and need to feel pain free from your shoes I would encourage anyone to give these inserts a try. I am not one who usually gets on the band wagon touting a product but these inserts are the closest thing to forgetting about foot pain I have ever experienced. MAGIC.

Thank You SOLE for giving me my life back

I have numerous issues with my feet. Ball of the foot pain, heel pain and bad arches. I had tried many different products in the past with very limited results. Then I discovered the SOLE products. Instantly after inserting these into my shoes I got some relief. As the insole wore in some more, they got more and more comfortable. I was never able to spend many hours on my feet before getting the SOLE product. This product allows me to function again! I was so pleased with the results that I ordered some more for spares, as I now know that I can't survive without them!

Great Product!

I have had a nagging ankle sprain for quite some time now, and I finally got around to getting some SOLE inserts, as my doctor explicitly recommended SOLE. I wish I had gotten them earlier! I'm on my feet for all of my time at work and they really alleviate a lot of pain that I didn't realize I had for so long. My feet in general aren't as sore after my shift and my ankle hardly has any pain. I, of course do ankle exercises to also help but there was drastic change and relief after having started to use the inserts in my work boots. I would recommend these to anyone that needs arch support for sure!

Made a difference

Had weight bearing episodic pain in ball of foot in proximal third metatarsal joint. The Thick met pad Sole reduced the pain when used with a wide toe box shoe. Can't notice a difference from heat shaping the pad as instructed.

Comfortable Sandals

I’ve been using these since April 2, 2022 and find the sandals are comfortable to use despite bunions on my feet. These wear-moldable, water-friendly sandals made of Bloom Algae Foam makes it light and the surface feels good on the feet. The cushioning is sufficient plus the padded microfiber strap is super comfortable. As advertised, the METATARSAL SUPPORT PAD relieves pain and pressure in the ball of the foot by lifting toe bones into natural alignment.

Little things in life make a big difference

I have been wearing these for quite a while and love them. I recently purchased a pair for my 72 year old mother. Mom was experiencing heal pain. The pain was at its worst first thing getting out of bed, or after sitting for prolonged periods of time. Once she was up walking the pain would get better, but never completely go away. The pain in her heels caused her to walk with a wobble. I bought these insoles for my mom, and had them shipped directly to her house. Mom called me a few minutes after receiving them. Within a few minutes of wearing them she felt some pain relief and more stable walking. After a few days of wearing them all day the heal pain has completely gone away. I will be ordering a second pair, so that she has a pair for her house shoes, and outside shoes. Thank you to the people who designed these insoles.

These are great!

I’ve been using these for a couple years. I’ve always needed shoes with extra support but hadn’t found the right inserts. I had some pretty significant foot and ankle pain a couple years ago and saw a podiatrist who recommended these. These help a lot with my pronation, yay

Why I recommend Sole

I walk on concrete floor all day and my feet were so sore at the end of the day. Since finding SOLE insoles, my feet feel fabulous. The way they mold around my feet, I can spend the entire 8 hrs walking and my feet, knees and hips are not in pain. There is cushion, comfort and end of day relief. They last longer than my shoes do, I have used them consistently for over 3 yrs and would (and do) recommend them to anyone who needs comfort on their feet!

Awesome insoles

These things are great. I've had these insoles in for about 45 days. I'm walking on concrete floors for 12 hr+ a day and my feet don't hurt one bit. Use to have heel pain about 2/3 through my work day and now none.

Always Impressed

I have used SOLE products for the last 5 years and have always been impressed with the product. I used to wear orthotics, my Physio recommended SOLE and I've never gone back. I have recommended this product to friends and family who also have enjoyed ending foot pain. Every pair of shoes I wear has SOLE insoles

Finally, relief from foot pain!

I am one of the numerous sufferers of peripheral neuropathy. For years I have endured foot pain that has taken me from an active runner to rarely going for walks because of constant foot pain. I prefer to stay clear of the pharmaceutical pain relief strategy, and decided to try a set of SOLE footbeds. Not sure which product to purchase, I used the SOLE Product Guide to determine which product was best for my condition. Sure enough, the Active Medium with Met Pad was suggested. I purchased the product and it was delivered to my home in just a few days. Following instructions on how to form the footbed to my foot shape, I set the footbeds in the oven at low temperature for a few minutes. Next, I placed each footbed into a pair of my shoes, put the shoes on and waited for the material to conform to my personal foot shape. Skip forward two months, and I can say that after years of foot pain, I am much relieved. Not only can I now go back to long pain free walks, but I have more energy, because I am not in constant pain. These soles are great. The Actives with Metpads easily transfer from one pair of shoes into another. Now that I am satisfied with how well they work, I plan to order another pair for my runners. Relief is a great thing!

Amazing

These soles have saved me a lot of pain ! Thanks

Jo Flower

Still Happy!

I started using SOLE insoles when I started having foot problems from lack of arch support at least 10 years ago. They have been 5 star the whole time, relieved all my pain. I have worn SOLE sandals as well and they worked great for me. I highly recommend SOLE products and have been in my shoe repair shop as well as sharing them with friends and family. Thank you SOLE!

indispensable

I use these insoles in all my shoes: runners, boots, dress shoes because since I've been using them for at least 4 years, my Nortons neuroma has not bothered me. Metatarsal pads in your shoe inserts and removable metatarsal pads can also offload the ball of your foot where you are having pain. They are comfortable & I use a variety of thicknesses depending on the shoe and activity.

What a difference!

I tore my arches over a year ago, and they've caused near constant pain since. I figured I'd try the met pad souls. At first they didn't feel right, and I figured I was just gonna have to suck it up. I kept wearing them in hopes that they'd do something eventually. (Kind of like a painful massage) Within a couple weeks, the pain that has been haunting my arches had subsided. I am in awe! Truly didn't think insoles could make this kind of difference! I am beyond grateful! Truly appreciated!

Best thing since sliced bread!

I’ve been using these products for about 2 years now. I had these new work boots and They killed my feet. I’ve tried everything i I could from stores and nothing. My buddy told me to check out SOLE. I was skeptical about the price but, I gave it a go. It relieved my pain right away. I bought some new daily shoes and replaced the sole with a new one with the met pad. Took a bit to get used to but, I love it. SOLE saved my feet!

Perfect in winter hikers

Thank goodness for these insoles. I live in an area that doesn't have sidewalks everywhere. With my plantar fasciitis, I need to feel secure when I am out in the elements. Once I realized how reliable this footbed was, I knew I could purchase footwear without worrying about comfort and pain management.

Sport flips

Purchased the orange Sport Flips and love them. Have been wearing SOLE sandals and using footbeds for a number of years now and the sandals are pretty much all I wear in the summer. Great support which helps to align feet and knees. No more knee pain. Extremely comfortable with long lasting material. Highly recommended.

Best fit best value EVER!

I have been wearing these in ALL my shoes for 5 years. I have 6 pair that stay in each set of shoes. Dress shoes, hunting and fishing boots and cross training shoes. These SOLE inserts have saved me from years of aggravated foot pain. They fit my foot and shoe size perfectly. They are comfortable - I have had custom made inserts from other companies, made for much more money (thousands $$), and they didn't work and they weren't comfortable or durable. I tried these out of desperation and now I wouldn't leave the house without them. Thank you! SOLE!

SOLE saved me!!

I can’t begin to describe how happy I am that I was recommended SOLE for my feet by my chiropodist. I’ve been having terrible feet issues(fat pad atrophy)for the last 4 to 5 months. I’m an avid hiker and on my feet all day long. I was literally hobbling around in pain all day. A few weeks after incorporating SOLE footbeds into my life I am completely pain free and continuing my active lifestyle. Very easy to put into any shoe. Thank you from the bottom of my feet.

Comfortable insoles

This review is on the "Performance Wide Thick" I also bought the Active ones, but I haven't used them yet. I suffer from lower back pain (sciatica). This pain hit me pretty hard. I see doctors about my lower back. That's all they are focused on: my lower back. I started to think about my childhood and how I needed arch support in my shoes. Knowing general construction and basic biology, a improper foundation leads to a poor construction relying on that foundation. I started looking at arch support inserts. Most are just a heel cup with a partial sole. The ones that were a full footbed were gel or memory foam as padding. Gel leave your foot in it's own sweat. That creates foot rot. Foam collects the sweat and grows bacteria. I came across a "SOLE" ad online. It caught my interest. I started to read these reviews on most of the different styles to order from. I did the fitting questionnaire to find what I might be looking for. I ordered both that came up being that they have the return policy also they are both different materials. When I received them I looked at both and felt the cork ones would be more cushion. I work on my feet 6-8 hours straight per shift. I heated the cork ones in the over per instructions and I haven't looked back. It's been a couple months now and from day one of wearing them my back pain has subsided. I still need surgery on my back, but I believe with these "SOLE" inserts I'll have a better foundation to help strengthen my frame during healing. Yes I would recommend these inserts to those looking for comfort and support. Also those looking for lower back pain relief. I wear a whole size in shoes so I just order that size of inserts. They fit my shoe like it belongs. Nice bed for my foot to sit on. The cork is very comfortable they seem to form to your foot and hold it in your shoe.

Work awesome

I have trouble with metatarsalgia and pain on the top of my feet along the my toes. I have a pair of custom orthotics for my work shoes but needed something for all my other shoes to keep my feet in check all day long. These give my feet relief now. I also ordered flip flops because these insoles work so well

Great for snowboard boots

I bought these specifically for my snowboard boots after my old foot beds were making my feet hurt incredibly bad. My issue with the old foot beds was lack of arch support, despite buying ones that matched my arch perfectly. However, when I snowboarded the beds would push down and provide zero support. That's when I did some research and found out about SOLE, and bought a pair online. They took a little getting used to but I could immediately tell that my issue with arch support was gone. The SOLE foot beds kept their form and relieved the pain that I had dealt with before. Great product for snowboard boots

Best Insoles!

Recommended by a podiatrist, these are the best insoles I've found, for relieving my plantar fasciitis. Love them - they are super comfortable, and make a huge difference in pain level of my feet.

Met pads

I bought the met pads for a high arch, metatarsal pain. They did not help at all.

A lot less pain

I have been using to product for 3 months. I can now stand up for several hours like a normal person. Being able to walk is a matter of mental health for me. This is a very sturdy product and comfortable.

All about the forefoot

From a tiny functional foot clinic serving Yukon Territory and northern BC, SOLE Active Medium is the only insole recommended. Recently purchased 5 pairs to have on hand for clients. Bonus dollars will directly benefit remote harder to reach clients. :) I no longer wear the product - which is a good thing b/c my foot, with the assistance of SOLE, is now barefoot. I like SOLE b/c it helps people's feet, lower limb, pelvis and lower back regain function after years of foot binding. SOLE provides the heal cup, active arch support and the vital forefoot needed for people to regain mobility while comfortably supported. Specific injuries and pain I recommend SOLE treat are the forefoot - which is stabilized when the heel, in the heel cup of the SOLE anchors the foot allowing the forefoot (metatarsals) to regain their beautiful full function - all the way to the tips of each straight toe - which is why I often recommend the wide.

Purchased the Sport Flips and love them. Have been wearing SOLE sandals and using footbeds for a number of years now and the sandals are pretty much all I wear in the summer. Great support which helps to align feet and knees. No more knee pain. Extremely comfortable with long lasting material. Highly recommended.

Thank Goodness!

I'm a martial artist, training and teaching karate and I'm an acupuncturist in private practice. I'd suffered an ankle injury years ago, which was acting up and affecting my knee and lower back and foot beds from the physio therapist were going to cost $400. It was then someone told me about SOLE Footbeds. When my first pair of Active Medium with Met Pad footbeds arrived in their slim, environment conscious packaging, I got them in my shoes and I immediately felt relief and comfort. It took just days for all my pain to disappear! Now I recommend them to all my patients with back or lower extremity joint pain and I wear them in all my shoes. It's been about a year now that I've been wearing the footbeds and I'll keep wearing them forever.

Giveaway Review

-I bought the product because I have had flat feet my whole life and would like to avoid any issues with pain down the road as I get older. -2 Months Daily -I like how the sole forms around the foot and offers daily support -The sole fits perfectly around my large feet -I think the materials used were combined for a perfect design -The sole is very comfortable!

Great product

These insoles are as good as my custom orthotics. I use them daily running or walking! Great arch support and nice padded heel cushion. Definitely helps my plantar fasciitis pain.

I love my insoles

This is my second set of SOLE Active Medium Wide insoles and I have been using them for the past year. I walk and hike a lot and have ongoing issues with soreness in my feet and my knees. These insoles have reduced the pain in my feet and I can walk even farther these days and not take so many rest days. The insoles are comfortable and the fit is true to size so they slip into my shoes like they are made for them.

Ball of Foot pain

Bought these insoles to see if they would help with pain in toes and ball of foot. They have helped a great deal and have now purchased three pairs to keep in different shoes. They are comfortable and fit perfect in my shoes.

Performance Thin Soles

I purchased two pairs of these insoles for use in ski boots. I purchased one for myself, and one for my wife. My wife and I have put about 20 days and a few short tours on these insoles since buying them in the middle of February and we both love them. My arches have a tendency to hurt after a day of staying on my feet, these insoles have alleviated a lot of that arch pain. My wife broke her ankle a few years back and sometimes complains about pain and the feeling of instability in that ankle especially when we are doing tours. Since using this insole she feels much more supported and a lot of that pain has gone away. As far as performance goes these insoles are a giant leap over the stock insoles we were using in our current boots and not nearly as expensive as custom insoles. They were also easy to install and form, and as you can imagine the more days you put on these the more comfortable they become! Since using these in my ski boots I have plans to buy a pair for my work-boots. Due to the nature of my job I often times end up walking several miles in my work-boots inspecting job sites, which often leads to very sore feet at the end of the day.

Happy feet and calves

I use these in a pair of otherwise useless and painful leather loafers. Unfortunately, I like the quality leather and look of them. Decided to try some SOLEs to see if I could salvage them. I was 100% right. I can now use these loafers like a regular everyday shoe. I've been using these now for 1 month now with much success. I am now in the process adding SOLEs to all my shoes and runnners.

Relieves foot pain

My podiatrist recommended these insoles and they help with foot pain . I need to get more for the rest of my shoes as currently I am just using them in my hiking boots. I wore deck shoes today without the insole and my feet really hurt!

Foot pain is gone

I purchased these insoles several weeks ago after having significant foot pain for many months. The discomfort when walking was gone after one week of wearing these insoles. I have purchased two more pairs for my other shoes as well.

Work Boot Perfection

I bought these for my work boots. I have to wear rubber boots that have no support for my job. These basically made my feet feel like I was wearing a pair of sneakers. I can easily make it through my long work days with no pain. Great insoles.

Solved my foot pain

I’ve been using SOLE footbeds for a few years now for pain related to over-pronation. Recently I began to have pain on the ball of my right foot. After doing some research I discovered that this was likely due to metatarsalgia. I decide to look to SOLE for help and found these Performance footbeds with built-in metatarsal support. I’ve begun using them regularly and my pain has disappeared. I’ll continue to buy the footbeds with Met Pads from now on.

Life-changing insoles

I've always had a problem with foot pain wearing shoes, ever since I was young; I just thought it was normal to have aching feet after spending a day in shoes. Sneakers, flip-flops, dress shoes, boots, it didn't matter; everything hurt. When a shoe sales person at The Right Shoe in Vancouver suggested in 2016 that I try SOLE footbeds, I was skeptical because I didn't really believe they could help. She told me to trust her, that they had a return policy if I wasn't satisfied, and that she thought the "aggressive arch support" design would really help my tired, aching feet. So I listened to her and got a pair of Active Thicks for my Bluntstones and I was converted overnight. Those Bluntstones went from being those cool boots that I really liked but always avoided because of fatigue and pain, to becoming my daily shoes. No pain or fatigue, even after hours and hours of walking in them, day after day! Transformative and life-changing. I went back and got a pair Active Thins for my Cons too, and when I started spending more time in dress shoes, I got some for those as well. Now, every single pair of shoes and boots that I own has a pair of SOLE footbeds in them—Thursdays, AEs, Clarks, Vessis, chukkas—and I wouldn't have it any other way. I love that SOLE is designed locally (I'm in Vancouver, BC); I love their company philosophy of reduced environmental impact, carbon negativity, wine cork recycling (I make and bottle my own wine too, so it's a real plus for me), planting trees, giving to charities, donating to the needy, and social and ecological responsibility in general; I love the fit and the design; I love love love the comfort. They literally transform any pair of shoes from being totally insane torture devices into comfortable, meaningful footwear that reasonable people can actually wear, walk around, and stand in. Amazing! I mean, what's the point of even wearing footwear if it makes your feet worse and causes pain? And why did it take so long for me to discover SOLE? Seriously. Just get them. Thank you, SOLE, for making my foot life pain-free! I will always be grateful, and I will always have your footbeds in my shoes!

Excellent for running

This is my third pair of Active Medium which I have been using for the last 3 years. I am a regular runner but overpronate when I run. These soles provide excellent support, particularly on longer runs (over 10km) and I find I have less hip pain after the run. They fit perfectly in my running shoes and it didn't take long before I had forgotten that I have inner soles.

Extremely Helpful!

I had been dealing with foot pain for quite some time and tried a few products but the problem was never truly resolved. Then I heard about SOLE from the Darkhorse podcast and I have faith in their endorsements so I went for it! It was a great call. I have been using the footbeds for several weeks now and the results are very noticeable. The foot pain is basically gone and I'm on my feet for hours at a time. Also, they're very easy to transfer from shoe to shoe. Highly recommend!

THANK YOU FOR A GREAT PRODUCT!

PRICE IS MY FIRST CONSIDERATION WHEN CONSIDERING A NEW PURCHASE. SOLE ACTIVE THICK WITH MET PAD PREVENTS MY ANKLE SPRAIN, PATELLA FRACTURE, AND HIP REPLACEMENT PAIN! MY PODIATRIST RECOMMENDED YOUR SOLES TO ME 20 YEARS AGO! I HAVE BEEN BUYING YOUR SOLES FOR 20 YEARS! I STARTED PURCHASING SOLE INSERTS WITHOUT MET PADS. I HAD SUCCESS WITH COMFORT AND NOW I PURCHASE ACTIVE THICK WITH MET PADS! TOTAL COMFORT AND SUPPORT! I LIKE THE CORK SOLES THE BEST! WITH SOLE ACTIVE THICK WITH MET PADS I CAN WALK AND HIKE FOR MILES!

Great Product

My wife and I are both using the Medium with met pad and they really help with foot pain. We normally walk 4 miles a day and found that SOLE has helped with eliminating foot pain. We are wanting to try the Thick next.

Just buy them!!!!

My son has plantar fascitis and could hardly walk after practice. We have tried many different insoles and finally tried these. I can honestly say that these were the only ones that worked. With in a week he could go to practice without foot pain afterwards. We are getting ready to order him more for his other shoes!!!! He wears a size 8 basketball shor and the size 8 insoles fit perfectly with out trimming. They do not slide around and he has zero complaints!!!! Trust me.....we have tried them all and these are the only ones to help him.

Pain relief at an affordable price

It was a foot doctor who told me I had flat feet and the same doctor that told me about SOLE footbeds. I was looking at cortisone injections for bursitis in my left hip and within 2 weeks of wearing the inserts, all the pain went away! When I stopped wearing them the pain came back. I started wearing them again and the pain went away. Why I stopped it beyond me, and I cannot live without these! I also used to switch them between shoes but it doesn't always work as they mold to the shape of not only the foot but the shoe as well. So I just bought 3 pairs for my new runners and a spare to tuck away.

No more sore feet!

My arches are falling and it’s painful. These inserts improved my situation dramatically. The pain is gone. Plus, I can walk and stand for longer periods of time. Best of all, they fit a number of my shoes. Get them! You have only to gain.

The amazing woman’s Catalina sport flip

The women's Catalina Sport Flip was absolutely amazing. I've felt very comfortable in them and just love how good quality it is. It just seems so good for me that my heel pain went away. I highly recommend this to anybody who is buying this product.

SOLE Arch Supports

My wife and I run 4 miles/day 6 days/week and so it's critical we have the best support possible. We purchased our first pair of SOLE arch support inserts 6 years ago upon noticing a bit of arch pain and just purchased new sets via their website. The inserts eliminated any and all tenderness, they are comfortable, supportive, and durable; they fit like a glove, and the materials of the inserts keep our feet cool and dry. If like us you need added support, you can't go wrong with SOLE.

Save the Day with SOLE

I have been wearing SOLE for over ten years, ever since I was introduced to them at my favorite running store in Bend, OR. Each time I bought new running shoes they sold me a new pair of Soles. When I came up with hip pain I went to them, they analyzed my stride on a treadmill w/camera and recommended a level up on my Soles and my go-to running shoe. My problem was solved and saved my planned walking tour of Spain. I've been sold on SOLE ever since, they're worth the price! They fit so well, and offer different levels of support so as you age you can increase your level of comfort by upping that support.

Son Inner soles

My son requires inner soles for his feet. We tried different inner soles, and he could it wear them for 4 hours. Today we bought this brand and he can wear them all day long, plus he doesn't have any more pain in his feet.

No more ankle pain when snowboarding

I was getting horrible ankle pain in my front foot while snowboarding and my trainer told me it was because of my flat feet. The SOLE thin beds fit in my boots perfectly and now I ride all day with no pain!’

Best insert ever!

I have high arches and I was having pain in them. I decided to get SOLE inserts to see if they would help, and I was amazed of how they supported my feet. My arches do not bother me any more and my feet feel more stable in the shoes because of the SOLE inserts!.

COMFORTABLE SLIDE SLIPPERS

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE COMFORTABLE SLIDE SLIPPERS. I WAS TOLD BY MY DOCTOR TO WEAR AN ARCH SLIPPERS, AND WHEN I ORDERED IN INSOLES, I SAW THE SLIPPERS OFFERED, I ORDERED AND IT HAS BEEN MY ONLY SLIPPERS I WEAR. VERY COMFORTABLE AND HELPED MY FOOT PAINS

HIGHLY RECOMMEND INSOLES

HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. CURED MY ACHING FOOT PAIN

Decreases my foot knee and back pain!

I have been using SOLE supports for years,because they help control my pronation and plantar fasciitis. In turn my knee and back pain are reduced by 80% and 40% respectfully. They keep me active and I can't thank you enough.

Changed Everything!

Great purchase! They fit well in my shoes and eased my foot pains. They are very comfortable and significantly decreased my flair-ups with plantar fasciitis.

I can run!

Every time I'd try to run, I'd end up with terrible knee pain after about 1/4 of a mile that would last for several days. I was trying knee and hip exercises with no relief. I finally looked towards my feet and found an over-pronation. With these insoles, I can run pain free! They also make my everyday shoes more comfortable. Thanks SOLE!

Amazing

Able to be on my feet all day without pain. Love these insoles.

Awesome insoles!

This was my first purchase of SOLE insoles. I heard about this company by doing a Google search for ski boot insoles for metatarsal foot pain. I've been suffering from foot pain in the balls of my feet for a number of years and my ski boots exacerbate the pain. I've tried other insoles in my boots which has helped a bit, but I still experience some pain after a day of skiing. I purchased these insoles prior to this year's ski season and so far, they have helped tremendously! I just returned from a 4-day ski vacation, which normally would cause a lot of foot pain, and I was so impressed with how comfortable these insoles are in my ski boots and that I was able to ski for multiple days in a row with hardly any discomfort. I plan on purchasing another pair of insoles for my street shoes as even regular shoes cause discomfort when walking.

LOVE SOLE

Love SOLE inserts. So comfortable and easy to fit. I am extremely flat footed and used to have to spend $ 800 for lift but my doctor recommended SOLE inserts, I love them and no longer have back or knee pain.

Best Inserts Ever!!!!

Title says it all. Best insoles I've ever had, and I've probably tried over 20 different brands to help with plantar fasciitis and metatarsalgia. Within just a few days, almost all the pain was gone. Will never buy another brand of insoles, a customer for life!

Worth a try!

I bought the Performance Thick to insert into my Manitobah mukluks so I would be able to enjoy them again! They have been amazing! My leg pain aka shin splint ache at night has all but disappeared. I wear them all day as my slippers! After the first week I noticed the change and then after 6 weeks, it is no coincidence. I like them just as much as the custom orthotics that cost 10 times the price. Highly recommend!

Solved some issues

Have been wearing these for several months and has resolved some Met pain issues in my foot. Comfortable and fit well in hiking boots that I have with almost no trimming and adjustment. Would like to see different Met levels. Could use a bit more Met padding for me personally. All in all, a good investment for foot comfort.

Greg

Great insoles

I have used these insoles in my winter boots for about 6 weeks. The are super comfortable and supportive. Previous pain I had wearing these boots is gone. The insulation on the bottom of the insole is a nice touch. These are quality insoles.

Susan I Gordon

great support slide

I previously bought the Mateo sport slide and liked the support and comfort it gave, but not fond of how the material stretched out after a couple of months, making them slip off easily. After reading a review about the Mendocino Sport Slide where the person said you could adjust as they stretched, I decided to give these a try. They do help a lot with my ankles as I have broken then several times over in the past and my doctor told me I need to wear support shoes at all times and not to go barefoot. We have hardwood floors at home and before I started wearing these support shoes my ankles always hurt when I wore other types of slippers, now I don't have any pain. I have been wearing a few months and like how they feel on other than the material gets a bit hot like the others did as well, but I would rather have my ankles happy so I will continue with these. I bought my husband a pair of the Mateo Sport Slides he likes to wear around the house.

SOLE is the best product for your feet

Starting from the beginning, about five years ago I got plantar faciitis on both my feet. Having to deal with the pain while working on feet for 8 hours a day was rough. Almost a year later I found SOLE products through a foot specialist. My life changed and I was cured of this issue within 6 months of using your insoles and sandals every time I was on my feet. Now with these clog style shoes I use for work everyday I feel confident my feet will never have any issues ever again. I highly recommend SOLE to anyone who works on their feet for any length of time. These shoes are made with high quality materials, the pair of sandals I wear only when I'm home I've wearing for 6 years and it's still in great shape. Extremely comfortable and fit very well.

Claire Kunigonis

Comfortable and supportive

I bought the Men's District by ReCORK for my grandson who requires orthotics due to extra-wide, flat feet. He absolutely loves the shoes. He doesn't have to have any additional support structures with the built-in footbeds. The contemporary style gives him the opportunity to have support without the obvious "orthotic shoe" look. Unlike previous shoes we've tried, he hasn't experienced any foot pain or fatigue during long wear use. I'm very happy with the quality, value, and durability of these shoes.

Good product

Bought these to use in my bike shoes. While the met pad isn't as pronounced as others, its thinness and support overall makes this a great insole. I've ridden for over an hour with them in the shoes without any pain with them and couldn't say that about the shoes before these insoles.

Nice style/tight fit

I really like these shoes! They look and feel great, and when I wear them I think it helps with my back pain. The only regret I have is that since the shoes are pretty rigid/stiff, I feel I should have bought a half size larger (like one does with sneakers). The fit is true, but the stiffness makes it feel too tight. I still wear them, and enjoy them!

My feet are smiling now

I recently visited the podiatrist 3 weeks in a row for a pain in my left foot right at the heel. They tried inserts, shots, wraps helped a little. But I was kind of shuffling around and not walking the 6 to miles daily as I had in the past. On the last visit one of the young ladies who assisted in my various treatments told me I should check out your website and buy the "Active Thick" version of their insert. I did and I was immediately better. I was so pleased I ordered a pair of your shoes and I am very pleased with them also. I am back to walking 6 to 8 miles per day with no pain. Thanks

Awesome!

These have helped my plantar fascial pain so much! Thank you!

Recovering from metatarsalgia

These insoles are helping my recovery from metatarsalgia. Dr suggested these in August, I took a month off from running and then slowly eased back into the miles. It took about 3.5-4 months to return to my pre injury mileage and the pain is now gone. I also have occasional post tibial flare ups due to flat arches and none of them has occurred since I started using these insoles. Forever a fan and will stick with these insoles.

Best I've found hands down.

I've been wearing these for a month or two now in my work boots, and a pair in my big rubber boots. I'm size 15 almost 16 and these are one of the few arch supports I can wear that actually fits my foot size. These last about a year or so with constant daily usage around the farm. Much easier to get used to than the hard inserts, and I have no arch pain since I started using them years ago when they were made for Redwing. I can't live without them. Does take about two weeks to get your arches used to some real support though, and if your arches are shot, wear them for an hour a day for the first week. Once I got used to them, my arch pain stopped and my knee pain got significantly better.

Great insole

Short of custom-made insoles, this is the best insole I've ever worn. Comfort-wise they are equal perhaps SOLE insoles are more comfortable. Custom insoles provide more arch support. I wear it in tennis and running shoes. 5 stars for comfort, 5 stars for support. Heating and molding is a great way to shape it to your feet. Since started wearing met-pad insoles the pain I used to experience in balls of my feet after playing tennis is pretty much non-existent. I don't have anything negative to say. Great product all around.

Red Sole inserts

I have used SOLE products for about 4 years . They were recommended by a foot doctor. I usually purchase the black SOLE inserts. The shop where I purchased them closed so I used the online site and did the online help for selection . It recommended the red SOLE Inserts because I have pain in the ball of my foot and need arch support. I've been wearing the red inserts for about 2 weeks and they do help with arch support and metatarsal pain. Since I do most of my walking in my neighborhood sidewalks & streets, sometimes I wish I had the added cushioning of the black inserts.

First Time Buyer

I was recommended this brand by my podiatrist. Bought these (my first insole purchase from any company) for the first time, put them in my hikers, and instantly foot pain receded. Every day there was less and less foot pain. until I have not had any problems now for months. I will be a lifetime user for sure!

Better than the old plastic soles!

I was a long time user of SOLE inserts for correction of over pronation associated with flat feet. They have made a huge difference for me as far as foot pain and allowed me to walk and jog comfortably for years. I was so excited to discover the they now have a recycled cork product - it's such a great model to have people return their wine corks to stores for re-use. I find that the new ReCORK soles feel springier and more comfortable that the old soles that I relied upon. I have been using them in my Saucony running shoes for 2 months now and they feel great. I wear size 8 1/2 or 39 shoes and found that the size 7/9 insert fit perfectly without trimming. I hope that more companies will follow this model of using recycled materials to create an excellent product.

Out on walks again

My husband has had foot pain for about 2 years now and it just stopped us from going on our walks. Although he still has some pain, the Active Medium soles have allowed him to get back to walking. He has a pair in both of his shoes and will definitely get more as needed. These slipped into his shoes perfectly after the heat up. After standing in them for the few minutes required to form he knew right away these were going to work. Comfortable enough he could wear them all day. No issues of any kind

Heel pain relief

My heels and ankles were killing me. I tried a pair of these and it relieved my pain almost completely. I saw such great results I ordered three more pairs for my other shoes. I also appreciate that they are eco-friendly.

Highly recommended

Really helped for pronation & knee misalignment. It’s all connected, so great for my low back pain as well. I have wide foot & high arch, the Thin insoles are ideal for most of my shoes & run true to size. I love that the heel is NOT elevated which can be common in other brands. It’s wonderfully comfy & I really appreciate SOLE getting on board with Eco friendly materials.

Overall a great flip

It's now well over a year that I've been wearing SOLE's Balboa flip on a daily basis. The three things that come to mind are: 1) No break-in pain. The straps are soft and comfortable and never caused blisters or pain. 2) The arch support is just right (for me) and has helped to keep my back issues at bay. I used to wear Havaianas and often deal with a sore back. 3) They are surprisingly durable. I usually chew through shoes pretty quickly and wear the outside of the sole. I guess because the back of the sole is sloped up it wears less. All in all I am very happy with them and would easily recommend them to anyone looking for flip flops with some arch support.

Nishtha C. Sanghani

SOLE is the best footbed brand

I have been SOLE customer for 15 years I am also a physical therapist and not only use SOLE myself but also recommend to my family and patients. The arch support and the level of comfort helps with any routine walks, runs, work outs, long standing activities and makes it all less painful. I have recommended SOLE to patients with knock knees, pes planus, plantar fasciitis, foot pain and also knee pain and back pain. They are very comfortable and not to forget, durable too.

Great Insoles

I had a foot issue and was awaiting an appointment to get an orthotic made. Since the pain was increasing and I had an upcoming backpack trip, I needed something for the interim period that might alleviate this pain when hiking. I took a chance on some SOLE Active Medium inserts and couldn't be more pleased. When I showed them to my Podiatrist, she was very impressed and told me to continue using them until the orthotics were made. Well, eventually the orthotics arrived, felt extremely uncomfortable, had to be modified several times, and eventually were abandoned. I have since bought 5 pairs of SOLE insoles over the past year and couldn't be happier. They have eliminated my foot pain, are super comfortable, and are very affordable when compared to custom orthotics.

Nice

Purchased these insoles (size 11 U.S. fit is exact), because my $200 pair of Asics AWL size 11 US, were causing extreme pain to my Achilles tendon. I needed a winter shoe and although the shoe fit great at the store when I purchased them, they certainly didn't after the first 10km. I was forced to go up a half size with my shoes because my right toe was feeling cramped. Decided to purchase both the Active Medium and Thick, because I wasn't sure which would be enough to fill in the extra room in my shoe and possibly elevate my foot to keep the back of the shoe from touching the upper rear portion of my foot. Ran 100 km in the Active Medium and my feet started to feel great after the first 20km, almost instantly (I didn't heat fit them to my feet). After 100km, I decide to try the Active Thick and they filled the extra space in the shoe that was needed and elevated my foot ever so slightly. First impression was a full shoe and feeling like I was 1 inch taller. At first, when I put in either insole, they felt lumpy. After about 20km, they tend to mold to your feet and feel very natural. You can, of course, heat treat them to fit, but I wasn't sure I was going to keep them, so I decided to try them, out of the package. I do get Achilles pain once in a while, but this is probably due to my running technique and not the insoles. I use my Active Medium Soles in my summer runners (Mizuno Wave Sky Waveknit 3 in size 10.5 U.S.), which fit me perfect before inserting the Soles and fit snug after installing. 450km now and still great. I'm sure my shoes will wear out before these Soles will; they will be going in my next pair of Asics AWLs. Overall I'm very satisfied with my purchase. Initially I found them to be expensive, now not so much because they work.

NOTHING BUT SOLE

I've been wearing SOLE inserts for several years now, and I will admit that I have tried other brands in between. I've always had to ditch the other brands--nothing but SOLE helps my feet with plantar fasciitis pain. I simply put them in my shoes and allow them to mold to shape naturally. These are the most comfortable inserts I've ever used, and I've decided I won't try anything else again.

Goalie Skates

Returning to the ice after COVID, I was suddenly dealing with constant foot pain every time I put my skates on and I tried different things. I’ve been using Medium SOLE inserts in my field hockey turf boots for about 10 years and started wearing a pair in my everyday shoes about two years ago. I decided to try out the Thin, hoping they would fit comfortably in my goalie skates. With the added foot pain in the sole and forefoot, I also tried the met pad for the first time which only took a little getting used to. The Thin soles fit just fine in my skates and have definitely helped the foot pain. I do remove them after every ice time so the skates dry properly and the rivets don’t rust, which is the only issue as it’s a tight fit around the heel and arch, so it can be a little hard to remove them. I worry a bit that the friction will speed up the wear on the skate liner and/or the insole. I’m trying to figure out an easier way to pull it out with a tab or something, but the pros definitely out way that one con.

Saved me from years of pain

Highly recommend the SOLE products. After years of off and on pain on my left foot, a friend recommended SOLE to me and I decided to give it a shot. After only a week of using the Active Mediums, my pain went away. I’ve now been a loyal customer for three years and I have been pain free for three years :)

My Happiness!

I have used SOLE products for a long time. 7-8 Years with one bottom line: COMFORT without PAIN! I have had foot issues since I was 50 years old ! SOLE was the answer! If you are having any foot pain is good for anyone who is approaching a painful problem with one's feet! Best move I have made for my overall health

Sara Christon

These are WONDERFUL!!

I broke my foot many years ago. Years of pain and problems lead me to try the SOLE inserts and FINALLY, I am free of foot, leg and back pain. Thanks to SOLE inserts, I can walk and hike for miles and I'm back to a normal life. I have these soles in all of my shoes and because they're so comfortable, I have purchased them for my family as well. THANK YOU SOLE!!

Great addition to cycling shoes

Put these in my Sidi road shoes. Thin enough to fit well, and a huge improvement in arch support over the stock units. Had to buy a larger size to ensure the arch support fell in the correct spot on my foot, which necessitated a fair bit of trimming to have them fit my shoes. Luckily I could try them on in a local shop, otherwise that trial and error would have been a pain. They’ve been brilliant ever since. Improved stability, power transfer, and no more hot spots or numb toes on longer rides.

Great!

Ive been wearing these insoles for about a month now in my sneakers and Blundstones and they are great! My feet feel supported and I can walk much farther without pain than when I've used Superfeet in the past. Already ordered another pair (Thick) for my hiking boots!

Rosmal Seneviratne

SOLE Footbed

I like the material used. Very comfortable and helps my back pain. Excellent product.

Aussie boots fixed

I had recently replaced my 'Australian' work boots and found them to be painfully uncomfortable compared with my old pair. Assuming that they just needed to be broken in, I bore with it for months. I'd hoped my 12h+ work shifts would break them in and back to the feeling of my old pair. Didn't happen. Nor did trying the old footbeds from my previous boots. I ordered the SOLE footbeds with the most cushioning and the met pad. Had a moment of regret thinking the met pad would be a mistake but a rep coached me to keep the order as is. Essentially the SOLE footbeds have fixed the misery caused by my work boots. I no longer have foot and hip pain from my long shifts. It's been maybe a month now and I'm loving them. Only slight issue is that now my feet are a bit snug against the uppers. A quick tap at the heel moves my toes off the steel toe cap and it's fine. These footbeds have taken away my workboot pains.

Great addition to my rugby boots

I had been experiencing some heel pain during and after playing so decided to give these footbeds a go based on my experience with the Active Thick beds that I have in my work boots. . I've been using the same pair of Active Thick in my work boots for more than 10 years. When my boots wear out, the footbeds go to my new boots. They make a night and day difference in comfort and fighting fatigue from standing on concrete for extended periods. I trimmed the beds to size, heated and formed them to my feet then put them in my rugby boots. Not sure why I was surprised, but they elevated the pain during and after playing. Being able to play without pain certainly elevated my game.

Victoria Leah Dunton

Great product

I purchased these for my pre-teen son, his feet grow so quickly that this is a great cost effective way to provide him with the support that his growing feet need. They have been great and offer support to his high arches! The fit his shoes great and have really help to relieve his foot pain.

Will keep buying them

I’ve got a bunion on one foot and bad ankle on the other. After purchasing these soles years ago, the conditions finally became manageable. I have them in every pair of shoes. Pain free walking is a gift that you owe yourself!

Great for Golf!

I have been struggling with plantar fasciitis so thought I would give the SOLE Active Medium insoles a shot. Game changer! Great support, comfort and full relief of any pain! The fit is perfect and the quality exceptional. Certainly could feel the difference right away and they just get more comfortable every time I wear them!!

Game changer

I've been using SOLE insoles for over a decade. Love them and highly recommend. I use them for plantar fasciitis, and back pain

No More Plantar Fasciitis Pain

I have had plantar fasciitis over 30 years. Treatment has involved many pairs of custom orthotics, numerous steroid injections, and years of debilitating pain. I started wearing SOLE insoles a couple years ago. They are now in every pair of shoes I own. I wear them ALL the time and I'm pain free. To paraphrase James Brown, "I'm a SOLE man!" My wife recently visited a podiatrist for, guess what? Plantar fasciitis! He examined her footwear. She wears Hoka One One shoes which he said were great. She had a new pair of SOLE insoles I had insisted she try. He told her custom orthotics would be no better than the SOLE insoles. After one injection and daily exercises, she is now back on her feet.

SOLE footbeds

Suffering from plantar fasciitis, dealing with huge pain in my heel, until I discovered SOLE footbeds. Got a new pair of boots, the insoles lifted my arch, felt so much better and continues to do so. Incredible incentives on the website and I have recommended them to four of my friends who have purchased them. I have also gotten a second pair for myself. Everyone raves about them. My feet feel better everyday, thank you so much

My Daily Soles

I put soles into just about every pair of shoes I wear because they’ve helped me totally get rid of with chronic ankle/instep and leg pain. The Active Medium are perfect for my day-to-day shoes that I use to walk to and from work.

Megan St. Marie

Perfect Soles for my winter boots!

I put Soles into just about every pair of shoes I wear, and they have helped me totally get rid of chronic ankle/instep and leg pain. I was thrilled to find these wool soles, cozy and perfect for my winter boots!

Game changer

These inserts are the best I have found. All of the SOLE met pad versions have made walking a pleasure for me after years of searching for pain relief.

Excellent Product

As someone who occasionally suffered from foot pain, I needed a more sustainable solution than prescription orthotics that need routine replacement at a very high price. While perhaps not as precise in foot correction as a customized orthotic, the SOLE Active Medium was a perfect solution for me. A very reasonable price for an excellent product by an outstanding, thoughtful company. I can highly recommend these insoles for anyone needing greater support or an alternative to overpriced orthotics. They resolved my foot pain issues and I'm a happy customer for life.

KKR

Perfect for flat foot

I have flat feet and this footbed helped me to reduce the pain while wearing for long periods of time. I recommend this footbed as it has microbial and warm wool properties as well as the arch support.

Kickass Insoles

I was originally diagnosed with a fallen arch three weeks before a planned 5 day hike on the Camino in northern Spain. I was new to SOLE insoles but I completed the 120km hike with no knee pain at all. Recently I developed a metatarsal issue and my pedorthist added a little egg shaped bump to reduce the impact in the affected area. Then I ordered these new Met Pad insoles and they are a joy to walk and hike in. Cannot live without them!! Great company and customer service too!! Thanks SOLE!

Fixed my feet

I was a little skeptical for the price, but I was pleasantly surprised. My arches were collapsed from years of flat insoles, so my feet were pretty sore the first couple times I used these. But after a week or so, the pain went away and my feet straightened out. I now can walk and stand for hours without foot pain.

Plantar Fasciitis Relief

I’ve had to deal with plantar fasciitis for years and even purchased expensive orthopedic inserts for $400 a piece. But the condition was never relieved. Always searching for something that worked I stumbled onto the SOLE inserts page. Within a few months of wearing these inserts (Active Thick with met pad) I finally starting feeling relief. Now after a few months of wearing these inserts I can say I have no more plantar fasciitis pain. I ended up buying a pair for all of my shoes so I didn’t need to keep taking them out and putting them in other shoes. Thank you SOLE. For the first time in 7 years my feet have no pain.

Stacy L Sloan

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

I can not write enough good things about my SOLE sandals! They are so comfortable and I no longer have back pain when I wear them. I actually love the men's sandals more but only because the straps are a bit looser than the women's and my foot isn't wide but more rounded on the top. I even have my family buying them and loving them! :)

Absolutely worth it

I had an old pair of SOLE from high school (10+ years ago) that I forgot about. More recently, I'd been experiencing sinus tarsi pain from running/overuse that persisted despite PT, cortisone, and other non-surgical treatments. I decided to dig up the old insoles, and after wearing them for about two weeks, couldn't believe the difference. I decided to buy a second pair so that I could rotate them between runnings shoes and regular street-shoes. Overall, wearing them consistently has probably cut my pain down to 10% of what it was originally. They are true to size and fit into my shoes no problem. I wish I had started wearing them sooner (or never stopped wearing the pair I got in high school)!

Great for golf

Great insole for my golf shoes. I walk the course and these help support my high arches for a pain free round. Great product and value.

Got rid of Metatarsal Pain

Have off and on metatarsal pain and had gotten away from wearing insoles for a bit. Then I started in on a hiking challenge and soon my metatarsal pain returned. Ordered a new set of these and instantly it felt better and after a couple days I was basically pain free. These fit shoes perfectly, have great arch support and you can trim them if needed. Highly recommend!

Thomas J Frazier

Great for your feet!

Love the flip as much as my inserts, I wear them around the house when I don't want shoes on, and they are helping my foot/plantar fasciitis pain tremendously. Besides the pain relief, they look great, can't wait to wear them this summer on the beach!

Joyce Burrell

Women’s Mendocino slide support

Very comfortable fit. Purchased to help relieve foot and lower back pain. Works great, full support sandals that are adjustable. Thank you SOLE for your support!

Every Pair of Shoes

I have a very high arches, arthritis in my feet and a tendency to get plantar fasciitis. I have to wear innersoles in my shoes all the time. I have used SOLE for years. They give me the best support and prevent any foot pain. Grateful.

Great Insole!!!

This insole has been a big part of me getting back to normal after some bad heel pain. Sometimes what seems like plantar fasciitis is nerve irritation. That was the case for me and the inserts I had been using since 2009 were irritating the nerve, I started working these inserts into my rotation in mid October. It wasn't long before I relied mostly on these. I have high arches and the Dr. tells me that can give me heel and forefoot pain. These inserts cover all the bases. Now I am on my feet again most of the day and enjoying walks around my village. Next season, I will be hiking again!

Great Insole

I have been using inserts for decades. I have low arches. I have tried MANY different products including $500 custom orthotics. I am also a runner. 20-25 miles per week. Expensive customs wear out. Not unlike any other. It can become a money drain. Off the shelf insoles from various suppliers are very generic. Too spongy, not light weight, not enough arch support and wear out quickly. A friend passed along to me a recommendation from his podiatrist. "SOLE" insoles. I looked over a lot of info from the SOLE website as well as from other sources and decided to try the SOLE Active Medium. SOLE provides a wide variety of insoles, as well as other products, to suit MANY different needs and foot and body designs. This alone separates SOLE from other offerings. It is also very obvious that they have done their due diligence on R&D and have included some very smart and experienced people into the works to develop products for a wide dynamic of people and purposes. I have low arches and a knee that has had cartilage repair and a torn stretched to useless ACL. (Skiing injuries from my youth). The soles obviously won't repair these things but provide support and alignment that allow me to run comfortably and vigorously without pain. I bought my first pair, used them for about 2 months and then bought another pair. All total I have been on them for about 5 months now. I also played Hockey for decades. Skate providers went away from traditional leather outer shells quite a few years ago and adopted moldable outer shells. You warm up the skate in an oven, quickly put them on, lace them up tight and the skate adopts the shape of your foot. Providing a very custom fit. It took a minute but once I got used to them I fell in love with the technology. The EVA base in the Active Mediums is very much similar. I did not put them in the oven I just put them in my shoe and wore them to shape. It took running on them about 10 times until they formed to fit. This wear in period was a bit uncomfortable in the beginning but since then they have been awesome... Now they fit great and are beyond comfortable. They are super supportive, lightweight, and I can trust them to be perfectly in place with every stride. I love the product, I love the price point. Customer service has been excellent. I am absolutely a SOLE customer for life. You might think that I am just a shill for SOLE who is being somehow compensated. I assure you that I am NOT. I'm a very satisfied customer who is simply illustrating my experience with their product. This is a product that I truly need and very much appreciate. I am 61 years old. A life long athlete. This product allows me to continue to enjoy training and competitive athletics... Priceless.... Thank you SOLE

Great support

I have very high arches, narrow feet and plantar fasciitis. I gave been told I am high risk for collapsed arches, told that's very painful, and have been going to physiotherapy for foot and related knee pain. Custom orthotics were quoted at $300 with Insurance only covering maximum 50%. I thought I'd give these a try first! I did not heat fit them as I was worried about getting it right, instead choosing to fit them by wearing. First few days were an eye opener, my toes clenched and I was uncomfortable wearing them for long periods if time. 2-3 hours at once was enough. I am on my feet, running after kids all day at work so I needed more support than drugstore insoles. After wearing them for a week my feet felt so much better at the end of the day! I really needed the extra arch support and my feet have relaxed, no more toe clenching! I will be getting another set for my ski boots and anticipate a much more comfortable downhill ski season this year. 100% would recommend trying these before getting expensive orthotics if you have high arches.

Made a huge difference

I had tried every non surgical / non drug solution for my planter fasciitis without success. I tried SOLE fully expecting it to not to make much of a difference but I was surprised. SOLE has reduced my foot pain by at least 75%. I would say that is a huge win. I was disappointed that the mediums wouldn't work in some of my shoes and so I ordered some thins and the problem is solved. I am totally pleased with my experience with SOLE

THESE WORK

I could not be more happy with both the price and the overall performance of SOLE inserts. I have had issues with my plantar fasciitis for years that have now produced heel spurs. I am close to needing surgery and as a PE teacher and coach I'm on my feet all day! I had custom-made orthotics that just were not helping me get through the day. An athletic trainer friend told me about SOLE. I didn't believe her that at $50- a pair they would work. I was wrong! I noticed a difference after 2 days. I no longer get shooting pain up my leg from my arch issues. I have two pairs of sneakers with SOLE inserts and rotate my shoes daily. What a difference! I have tried everything, trust me, these work! -Jen S. Albany NY PE Teacher and Coach

Foot saver!

I have suffered for a year with plantar fasciitis, and wasn't aware of these inserts until my daughter suggested I give them a try. What a relief! The support they give has remedied my pain and I can now walk distances never considered prior. I am in process of now ordering inserts for all my footwear, they are a lifesaver!

Great product

I am a very active person who needs arch support. I had special orthodics and they were uncomfortable and painful to use. I tried SOLE Active medium a year ago and it made a great difference. The Met Pad is slightly different than SOLE Med but both work well.

Game changer

I have genetic flat feet. I'm 44, and have lived the "strenuous life." Very active - hiker, power lifter, stone mason, former Marine. Over the last 4 years I've developed pttd, and over the last 5 months it's gotten very painful. As someone who can usually physically do whatever I want, having to avoid simple things like stairs has been very difficult physically and mentally. I have tried lace up ankle wrap braces, custom rigid orthotics that cost 1000.00 dollars, special shoes, and been religious about foot strengthening- they all sort of work, but there's always some pain. I have routinely been told "otc" orthotics aren't effective. Regardless on a whim I bought a pair of SOLE insoles, and after I put them in my gym shoes -INSTANTLY - the pain went away almost completely. I bought a second pair for my Danner hiking/work boots, with the same result. I can't wrap my brain around how there can be such an immediate dramatic change, but running up and down my stairs without a second thought or wincing in pain is absolutely amazing. I haven't worn them long, but they seem durable. I hope they hold up, though for this level of regained mobility, I'd buy a new pair every month if I had to. My hope is, as they are clearly relieving the strain on my tibial tendon and over pronation, over time with continued wear and foot strengthening I can reverse some of the damage done.

I think it's working!

I believe these insoles are helping with my metatarsal pain. I have a nerve that is bothering me and impeding my ability to walk. With these soles, I can still enjoy walking because of the excellent support they give my feet. I have been using them for at least a month now and need to put them in every pair of shoes I own.

Relieving pain

My podiatrist recommended this for metatarsalgia. It's relieving the pain and discomfort. I also rested for a month and cut back on the running mileage. The situation is definitely improving, and I know this process will take awhile. The arch support also seems better than my previous insoles. Will be buying more of these.

Life-changing

Before using these inserts, my feet hurt every day, all day long. After a few days of using these inserts, I have zero foot pain. Truly life-changing.

Heaven

I bought these for my grandson who is 12 and his achilles hurt every day all day even if not moving. After the first day he wore them the pain was gone. Thanks to my father for telling me to try them. He has been wearing them for a while now as well. Will definitely be buying more.

Success

I bought these because I have metatarsalgia. They are very comfortable. My pain disappeared quickly and I have not looked back. My gratitude and highest recommendation to SOLE on a high quality product that does what it advertises.

Del Mar Sport Flip

The flip has a metatarsal cushion which definitely improves my comfort. I experienced pain in the metatarsal area of my foot and the flip resolves this issue.

Best slippers

I have previously used Superfeet, and custom orthotics. I tried SOLE, and found that they are as good or better than even the customs. As I am into my 50's, my arches have fallen, and my feet hurt. Occasional bouts of plantar fasciitis also cause me grief. I have put SOLEs in most of my shoes/boots. Depending on the fit of the boot, I have used thin to thick SOLEs with great success, and even improved fit. I also bought "slippers", the SOLE flip flops that I wear in the house as much as I can remember to. These made a huge difference in my foot pain, or lack of. Highly recommend to ease your foot pain.

Met pad

I have used SOLE insoles for years. The met pad is a awesome, a well needed touch to relive pain in the ball of your feet

Great footbed

Great inserts! I have been wearing them now for a month or more. My hard orthotics were uncomfortable. I wasn't able to stand for long periods, which my job requires. My feet were always tired and sore at the end of the day. These are very comfortable and my chronic foot pain has diminished significantly. It's like wearing the right shoe with the right amount arch support. They fit perfectly into any shoe. My old orthotics were very wide and stuck out from my instep stretching the shoe. These basically replace the shoe's original foot bed. I wear a 9.5 shoe and bought a size 9. i will be buying another pair for my hiking shoes but will get a size 10. I can feel the end of the insert in my sneakers. It doesn't bother me or cause any pain but I will get a size bigger and trim if need be. Price is right too considering the price of hard orthotics.

Really improves my day in work boots

I was referred to try non-Rx insoles for plantar fasciitis. Started with the less aggressive ‘Work’ soles. After a while felt I could go with the higher arch of the ‘Active’. Heat-molded them this time. Even less heal pain with these. Can go all day with my feet in work boots. Ordering another pair.

Did not help

The pain in my left arch went away however I started to develop pain in my right heal as though a heel spur was developing so I had to discontinue using them

10/10 recommend

Outstanding product I've had plantars fasciitis for years. I stand on hard concrete at work all day and within the first week I could tell the pain and fatigue going away. I've had them maybe 2 months will definitely be buying more. Love the cork and the price is definitely fair as well

Wonderful

They work! They fit into all of my shoes and I no longer have pain from plantar fasciitis! I love the fact that they are made from a renewable product. I will be buying more of these!!

The best insoles available

These are the best insoles available anywhere. I started out using the SOLE DK Signature insoles and switched to these when they were discontinued. All of my SOLE insoles have been great, but these are my favorites. I have them in all of my shoes, boots and running shoes. Since I switched to SOLE from Superfeet I’ve had no more issues with plantar fasciitis, and no foot pain or fatigue. They aren’t cheap but they are worth every penny. Try them. You’ll be glad you did.

Immediate Results

The SOLE insert with met pad has really eliminated my heel and foot pain. I could see a difference the day I put it on. That achy heel and painful feet feeling is gone. Thank you SOLE.

Pain Relief!

SOLE was recommended to me by a friend, after confiding in her about my recent diagnosis of plantar fasciitis. I purchased these to wear around the house to help with the pain, and they have been life changing! Finally I have supportive, perfect fitting sandals that have made walking painless and has helped me make great progress in healing! Thank you SOLE!

Hilda Angeles

Supportive Sandals

I had foot surgery 3 years ago and have been wearing SOLE insoles ever since. This is not your regular flip flop. The sandals have excellent support and look good too. I can wear them all day and have no pain on my feet.

SOLE inserts

Three family members use the SOLE medium in our sneakers, we've had them for at least 3 years. I had heel pain and they were recommended by a Doctor. Since using the SOLE inserts I no longer have any pain. They are comfortable and fit well. I certainly will keep using them, as will my husband and son. Thank you, Cheryl

Worth the purchase

I have collapsed arches from pregnancy and these insoles help a lot to support my arches and relieve pain and discomfort while I get back into shape. Glad I brought these and going to purchase more.

Game changer

I have been wearing the Performance Wide Medium in my work shoes for over a month now, and they have helped my foot pain at the end of the day. I am 57 years old and average about 15000 steps a shift, so I needed the help. The only drawback is this model does make a significant weight increase to the shoe. I just put my Active Wide Medium into my New Balance walking shoes. Within my first walk I knew this was a massive improvement to the performance of these shoes. They give the same feel as the thick model, without taking away from the shoe’s cushioning and do not add a noticeable amount of weight. I am buying 2 more pairs right away. If you are looking to try SOLE, I think that the Active Medium is the best place to start.

Best sandals ever!

These are the best sandals I have ever worn. I wear them all day everyday (indoors in winter). Because of these sandals, I don’t have pain in my arches, Achilles or calves (which I usually do). The material is amazing, not sweaty or hot, and they handle water like a dream! I’ve worn this model of sandal for over 6 years and will continue to repurchase them as long as possible.

Shelley Elmblad

Sturdy and Looks Great!

I recently bought my second pair of Mateo Sport Slides. I love the comfort and support these sandals offer, and they look great, too. My first pair lasted over two years of wear (almost daily 8 months out of the year), being hosed off and tossed in the wash machine a couple of times because they were mucked up while I worked in the garden. These sandals are a value given how sturdy they are while looking fashionable while eliminating my back pain.

Amy

Best flip ever

I have high arches and suffer from severe nerve pain in both feet. Since I started wearing SOLE Catalina Sport flips 10 years ago, my pain has disappeared. I put them on as soon as I get out of bed and wear them all day when I can. I have different shoes for work and walking but I have worn my SOLE flips on my hour long walk in the morning and they are great. They mold to your feet and provide firm but comfortable support to your arch. They are very well made and last forever. The only reason I have purchased new ones is because I wanted a new color or I got my white ones really dirty doing yard work. I still wear my first pair purchased in 2010. I hope they expand their line into athletic shoes because they are a great company with great products. I called customer service because they were only carrying black. They explained the supply chain issues they were experiencing and then they sent me an email months later letting me know they had new colors in stock and gave me a coupon to use. Outstanding customer service.

Fantastic!!!!

The SOLE Thin with metpad has been a game changer for me!! I’m a pronator who experienced back and hip pain when walking. I’ve tried every shoe you can imagine with no sustained relief. The SOLE Thin insert with the metpad has made a HUGE difference in resolving pain issues. I definitely will be ordering more. Thanks SOLE!!!!!!

smiling feet

I needed quality XL size insoles to stop my foot pain. SOLE was a home run for me. Easy to buy and exactly what I needed. Life is good when you find a company that helps supply what you need without a hassle. My feet thank me everyday.

Foot Pain

Occasional foot pain was bothering me. I puchased the insole and it has helped tremendously. I can now enjoy golf and long walks with no discomfort

Metatarsal Pad insoles

I bought this product because I had pain on the ball of my foot and the Dr. Suggested a metatarsal pad insole. I have been able to hike again without pain. I am so thankful I bought these! My runner is size 7 and the insole is a size 6 and fits perfectly into my runners and even into my Toms.

Game changer

After not being able to run for months this year due to the dreaded neuroma, I am excited to say I am running pain free. I couldn’t understand why numerous pairs of shoes did not eliminate the pain. Odd to say, it’s not about the shoe - but more about the sole! The soles fit perfectly in my shoes, no blisters, just ready to go. I love the cork material, a sustainable product, and a quality product too!

Jin Koh

Good for plantar fascia

I have diagnosed plantar fasciitis in my right foot. Especially, I have heel spurs. I have used two different brand footbeds (Dr. Scholl's and Trek Support) for my injury. My PT specialist suggested putting a SOLE brand footbed. When I put on it in my regular shoes and wear it, it gave pressure on my foot arch a lot and felt really different immediately. It did not give me any pain in my heel spur. I used it only for seven days. So far, it is really positive. I just ordered three more to put in my all shoes (two Thin for tennis shoes, one Medium for working shoes).

CINDY J YARASCAVITCH

Comfortable!

Love the Bajas. Have 3 pairs of them and find them to be the best fitting and most comfortable of all my SOLE flips (have 9 pairs total of various models). I have fallen arches, plantar fasciitis and wear orthotics. I can wear SOLE all day without pain. Have got 3 pairs for my husband and a pair for my sister too!

Relief

I was recently in a lot of foot pain at the ball of my foot and was informed by doctor that it was matatarsal and to see a foot specialist. Without medical coverage this can cost a min of 500$ for appointment and orthotics… I found this company and decided to try them… I get a lot of relief from my Active Medium with met pad insoles and would highly recommend them!!

Gregory Nilevsky

Everyone needs it.

Great product, Fits my needs for the arch support, eliminating knee pain. I actually got 2 pairs: one I use at home and one is always with me.

Shirley Epp

No pain anymore

These are the ONLY flips I can wear. I have problem feet /back surgery/osteoporosis and I have no pain in these flips !! The best.

wearing for years

I used the Active Thick for work for about 6 years for work shoes as a server and in winter boots, now I use them for walking shoes too. I get pain in my heel when I don't have enough cushion so I like these best for walking in, especially for long periods. With the right shoes I can walk for many hours with no pain, even on harder surfaces. Not as good as the Medium for running in because they are more rigid, but much better for when I'm not running. I need to size up tight-fitting shoes by a half size to allow these to fit as my usual size 9 runners made me feel like I was losing circulation with these in them but feels great with a 9.5. My boots still fit them fine with a 9. Immediate improvement when switching to a fresh set and then gets better in the next couple wears as it molds to the foot.

Michelle Ebert

So comfy, even for "hard-to-fit" feet

These flip flops are amazing! It's my second pair (in a different color). They take a couple days to get used to the support, but it's just what I need! My feet are VERY difficult to find sandals or shoes for. A bunion on 1 foot plus high-aches. My feet hurt everyday. Not saying these completely alleviate the pain, but they greatly reduce it! Thank you, SOLE. I'm a convert!!

Joanne Bonney

Love these shoes!

These are great supportive shoes for everyday. They are very comfortable and light. You wouldn’t think you are wearing supportive flip flops they are just like regular everyday shoes - but they stop foot pain and plantar fasciitis. These are the only flip flops I wear and have worn for several years. Definitely worth the money!

Mimi Straka

Thanks SOLE!

The Mateo Sport Slide is very comfortable and is helping my foot pain on the balls of my feet. I've been wearing them much of the day for about a month. It fits pretty well, though it's a bit long for my foot. I usually wear a size 8. It's light, which is nice, so my feet don't get tired when wearing them. I would like it to be available in other colours though, especially a light, white or cream colour for the summer months. Thanks SOLE!

Nicole Gallant

Solved my knee pain.

The SOLE products were recommended by my physiotherapist for pain in the knee and the ankle. Not only do I have the insoles, I have 2 pairs of slides and I find them most comfortable and so convenient to wear both in the summer and in the winter inside.

Helpful but not my favorite

I’ve been wearing these insert in my turf shoes for soccer games for the past month or so. They definitely have relieved the pain in my feet and ankles but not quite as much as the performance foot beds with met pads that I wear in my cleats. I did have to cut the inserts down quite a bit which was kinda difficult because of the thickness in some areas.

Great inserts!

These things are outstanding. I wish I had discovered them years ago. They allow me to run longer distances and with less fatigue and pain. They are also very well made and durable.

Marcia Carpenter

Sooooo comfortable!

Comfort and support in one! I wear these inside from when I wake up to when I go to bed. Helps with my lower back, knee, and ankle pain. I can’t live without them!!!!

Awesome product

The Active Thin insoles are incredibly useful for me. I started to use them 7 years ago after a piece of advice from a podiatrist as I am having a mild flat-foot and I was getting sole pain after walking or running. Since I used them, my problem disappeared completely. I am using them in all my shoes, whether classic ones or sports ones. I usually remove the original footbed and replace them with my SOLE insoles and once they are in place, I am comfortable with no walking issue. I did not have to mould them as I believe they should maintain their original curve to support the foot arch. At least this worked for me. I have bought 8 pairs up till now to cover all my shoes. Highly recommended product.

Great support and comfort!

I had pain in my foot for years. Nothing seemed to help it until my doctor recommended this insert. I wear them for every workout, and walking and hiking. My foot no longer hurts. I recommend them highly!

Helps My Plantar Fasciitis

I recently bought my second pair of SOLE Active Thick insoles. Plantar fasciitis causes me a lot of pain in my right heel. Along with proper stretching and ice, supportive and well-cushioned insoles help keep discomfort at bay. The thinner SOLE insoles support my foot in the proper position to avoid trouble, but these are even better because they cushion that tender area that gets battered with every step. I just wish I had a pair for every pair of shoes I own!

Mary A Needham

comfortable

I was pleased to find these Catalina sandals that also can provide the metatarsal support recommended to me by podiatrist this summer when experiencing foot pain. Found these to be very comfortable, enjoyed just slipping them on first thing in the am and hanging out with them. Had a momentary issue with strap rubbing one area, didn't wear for a few days, and now just fine. So glad to have a supportive option for summer wear.

Great insoles!

I got my SOLE insoles recently and love them! They help reduce the leg and knee pain I was getting from walking and hiking, and now I don’t go out without them.

Great for athletic shoes

I bought performance insoles recently to add to my other insoles . They provide excellent support helping to keep planter fasciitis and Achilles pain at bay. I have these insoles in my crossfit, tennis and running shoes. My athletic shoes always fit great with the insoles inserted. I go up a half size in shoes for a better fit.

Debra L Massicotte

great support for tired, achy feet

I bought a pair of SOLE flip flops years ago at the office where I got fitted for orthotics and wore them everywhere until they finally wore out. I wear orthotics in my shoes for bunions and back pain. I ordered 3 pairs of SOLE flip flops recently as I wear them for house shoes as they are far more comfortable than anything else I have worn. They look nice, are so comfortable that I look forward to putting them on after walking 18 holes at the golf course. The fact that they are made from algae blooms make me even feel better about my purchase.

Restaurant worker

I wear these for work and I stand for long hours. It will form to your feet but still provides the support. The material is good too!! Durable material and cool designs! Would recommend the met pad for problematic foot people like myself!! It helped with the other leg pains bad support caused to knees, ankles, or hips.

These Work!

Super. I will definately buy another pair. These orthotics fit perfectly into my running shoes. I didn't even need to adjust them! I have recommended this product to several people already. It has relieved the pain I had which was related to a bunion forming. I can wear them all day and my feet feel great after wearing them.

Changed Everything

Attn: Fellow foot pain sufferers! I have for too many years, purchased prescribed shoe inserts at the cost of $300/pair plus and they never seemed to change the game. Let's face it, your feet grow and the prescribed inserts are supposed to be replaced every two years. That's $150/year for not much gain on the pain. I was just about to replace a pair (now $400 pandemic price) when I happened to walk into an REI store and was looking at shoes and talking about my feet and the salesperson recommended SOLE Performance. I will never buy another prescribed insert, full stop. My shoes feel completely different now. From the moment I pulled these warmed inserts from the oven and slipped them into my work boots I knew, this was/is the answer and at $60/pair a tremendous savings. After the oven treatment they formed to my feet and offered instant comfort, arch support and my general foot pain is diminished to an amazing degree. I now have 4 pairs in different shoes and could not be happier. At this price point I no longer have to switch one pair from shoe to shoe, I can now just slip on a pair and walk out the door. The comfort, form fit and sense that my feet are being hugged is invaluable, add to that I am recycling cork and it's a win all the way around. Thank you SOLE and REI salesperson for a life changing moment..

Customer - on my feet 12- hours a day!!

Had horrible pain in my heel-(tried everything) went to Physical Therapy and he recommended these. The best insole ever- have had about a month and from day one- so comfy-awesome insoles- will be ordering more really soon.

Nicholas Bontorno

Just what I needed

I have very flat feet and tried out these books to help with my walking and some pain I have in my left ankle. I've had these for about a month and wear them most days and they've really helped in how I walk and how my feet and ankles feel. The leather is very stiff and has taken a while to soften up, and it rubbed against my legs a lot at first. But besides this, I'm very pleased with these boots.

Life saving insole

Love this insole. I’ve got a bad case of metatarsalagia and have been on the hunt for non-surgical relief without having to completely replace my sneakers, dress shoes, casual shoes, boots, running shoes and cycling shoes. This insole solved that problem. Easy to swap between shoes but always providing the net relief I need. I love the higher heel cup, the moment you put it in the shoe and lace it up you can feel your heel supported and hugged without being too tight. I cannot recommend the Active Medium with met pad enough!! If you have foot pain, pick a set up and watch the pain become more manageable and hopefully go away!

Love my insoles !

I was experiencing a lot of pain in the balls of my feet after months of long hours on my feet in steel toe work boots. Due to covid 19 I have been unable to see my doctor so I took it upon myself to do some research which in which it was apparent I needed insoles with met pads so I order the active thick with met pads and they have made all the difference in the world. I would highly recommend these insoles :)

Frances Leukhardt

Awesome flips

This is my second pair; I have high arches the the sport flip allows me to walk without pain.

Great for Morton’s neuroma

I was hesitant buying the footbed with the built-in met pad in case the pad wasn’t large enough or in the right place for my Morton’s neuroma. I am happy to report that the built-in pads are just right, and I can wear the footbed with no pain. They also fit my shoes perfectly.

Great for neuromas

I found these insoles to work the best for long days on my feet when my neuromas typically bother me the most. The met pad is in the perfect location for my foot. I prefer the plastic material over cork as it seems to have more cushion. The insoles molded without heat to my high arches nicely. I will say, I try to use them only as needed, when my feet are really hurting. I have noticed spending too much time in these insoles makes my feet hurt worse when they are not being artificially supported. Living in these insoles (as with any insoles) will only lead to weak, stiff, and painful feet in the long term. There is no replacement for foot strengthening in mitigating foot pain. That being said, these are great insoles that can help alleviate foot pain when used to temporarily relieve overloaded tissues and in conjunction with foot strengthening activities.

Great pads

I now have 3 pairs of these for my shoes and 2 pairs for my husband. These are fantastic relief for foot pain, very comfortable and hold your foot in place without movement

Wonderful

SOLE insoles are the only thing that have helped my plantar fasciitis. I have been using them—mainly the Active Thick—in all of my shoes for over a year now. I highly recommend them to anyone with foot pain.

Amazing Foot Support

My first pair of cork footbeds. I put them in my Rockports and have an amazing combination of foot support. I also wear the SOLE footbeds in my Dunnam Battery Park Shoes to help keep the pain away. I love them and absolutely recommend them.

Great option

My experience of getting and trying these insoles was exemplary. They do not work for me. I have flat feet and am having trouble with metatarsal pain. The purchase through refund was completely painless - you can't go wrong to give them a try. The insoles appear to be very well made and they fit surprisingly well into my wide toe box zero drop footwear.

Living Pain Free

I suffer with plantars fasciitis and as long as I wear these insoles with met pad support, my foot pain is gone. I have been using SOLE insoles for 4-5 years. They are great in any of my shoes. They fit perfectly and are so comfortable. I don't even notice them in my shoes. You have nothing to lose except for the pain! I highly recommend buying these insoles for anyone with foot pain or even if you don't - an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!

Helps a lot

Been using my insole now for a few weeks and it has helped a lot with my planter fasciitis. I do a lot of walking and it has been quite painful lately and I needed to try something to help with the pain. These have been amazing and I have now ordered a pair for all my hikers and work boots.

Graham McDonald

Awesome flippy floppy’s

These are by far the most comfortable sandals in the world. I left them for a few other pairs that just didn’t live up, and had me crawling back for a new pair of SOLEs. The have a ton of support, which takes away any of my lower back pain when standing or walking around all day. I’d highly recommend them!

Best insoles!!

I have been using SOLEs for the past six years and they are the best insole! I have them just about every pair of shoes I have. They helped with my knee pain and extend out the time until I needed knee surgery again. The cork makes the insole very comfortable.

Great product!

These are my favorite insoles ever. The only product that relieves my plantar fasciitis pain. Thanks SOLE!

Purchased for Son w/ Severs

I purchased these for my son who has been dealing with Severs for a long time now. He said they seem to help lesson the pain and he does not complain about his feet hurting after participating in various activities as often as he did before wearing the insoles.

Great Product

I have noticed vast improvement with my Achilles pain after using my SOLE inserts!

Good quality, thick and supportive sole

I have been wearing these Active Thick insoles for about 5 years now. They're my go to. I work on concrete floors in a retail setting so it's extremely hard on shoes. But these are amazing. I used to pay upwards of 400 dolllars for custom fit orthotics but tried these at a fraction of the cost and honestly, they last longer than my orthotics did. They offer amazing support and if you suffer from foot pain, or plantar faciitis, trust me and try these. You will not regret it. I recommend the Active Thick insoles as I have tried 3 other types of thinner ones. These ones just feel better. I tried the met pad ones this time as I usually get the ones without and I love them honestly. Will definitely buy again!

Jacqueline May

Knee pain

I bought this sandal because of knee and heel pain. I originally purchased a pair from my physiotherapy office, helped with Plantars Fasciitis. Now with having both knees needing replaced and heel tendinitis. The podiatrist suggested a sandal with a wedge and good support. I only wear sandals all year round and need to replace my indoor ones. I tried so many orthopedic sandals and these once were the best. I even ordered the mules and another sandal. Love the footbed, can get wet and still like brand new.

Can hike forever!

I bought the Active Thick with Met Pad insoles to use in my hiking boots. We do lots of hiking around where we live and also in the mountains and I always suffer from sore feet and can never do two days in a row. After putting these insoles in my hiking boots, I can hike for several hours and getting out the next day is no problem - I have no pain from the day before. I have bunions and mortons neuroma and these insoles have taken away the pain I used to have!

No more foot pain

I put the Active Medium with Met Pad in my indoor workout shoes to see if it helped with my foot pain and occasional numbness. It took a few days to get used to them as my foot was forming them but after that - they have worked great. I no longer dread doing my indoor workout! I have no more pain in my feet.

Gary C Stevenson

Walking on Clouds

If you want to feel like you are "walking on clouds".....this is the flip flop for you. I completely forgot I had foot pain(corns) when I slid into these shoes. Soft, flexible with just enough form....heaven. Wore them for 2 hours the first time and the next day for 6 hours....now that's comfortable. The soft "spongy" form fitting base provides all day comfort. I wear them as slippers indoors and sandals outdoors. This is my 4th pair of SOLE Flips and I love them.

John R Davis

I Live In These Things

My wife bought me my first pair in 2014 for Mexico and I wore them almost every day until they wore out in 2021. As soon as I got home from work they went on and my back started feeling better right away. I stopped working in 2016 so they got constant use after that. I swear by them! They really help my back pain, sometimes completely, and are so comfortable. They improve circulation in my feet and eliminated leg cramps after exercise. I even walk my dog 2-3km each day in these unless it’s raining (I have SOLE insoles in my walking shoes too) but then they go back on as soon as I get home. My new pair are almost exactly the same and are molding to my feet nicely. I hope they last as long and work as well as the first pair!

SOLE arch support insoles

One foot has a fallen arch as the result of an ankle injury a few months back. It was suggested to me by an athletic trainer to try the SOLE product before going the route of seeing a foot doctor. This might mitigate the pain in my ankle and across the top of my foot, and on the inside of my foot. There was also considerable swelling on the ball of the foot causing some minor numbness. I have been wearing this product for a month or so and can attest to the fact that the pain is negligible and most days the swelling is much decreased, which also lessens the numbness. It is by far the best insole I have ever used...very comfortable. In fact, I am going to order two more pairs for other shoes. Once you warm the insole, slide it into a pair of shoes, and step into the shoe, the insole is definitely shaped to your foot but also then seems to be shoe specific. Thank you for making such a good and affordable product.

Terry L Bergen

So wonderful to be able to wear flip flops again

Having problems with my back and with plantar fasciitis, I hike and have five acres to look after. So back and foot pain was really hard to deal with. Years ago I had got my first pair of SOLE footbeds for pronation and they fixed my pronation which in turn ended my knee pain which threatened to end my hiking. I have a lot of faith in the SOLE product,. Now SOLE is first place I look when I have problems. Two days ago I climbed crossover pass almost 2000 meters of gain 20 km with SOLE inserts and my body feels fine today, I wear the flip flops around the property I am constantly gardening, mowing, pruning, etc and I feel great, by the way I am in my 70’s . Thanks to SOLE I don’t have to slow down

Great product, Narrow

I really love these insoles, however, even though I ordered the right size they aren"t wide enough in the toe portion of my shoe and I often find my toe slipping off the side of the insole which causes some discomfort. The insole itself however has greatly balance out other pain that I was previously experiencing. I recommend ordering a larger size and trimming down if you have wider shoes or feet. otherwise great product. I've been wearing for a few months now with improved walking distance every day.

Like magic

My son's feet were hurting really bad after track season started and we were referred to a foot specialist who suggested SOLE. So glad he did because within one day of using Sole, my son was able to run again without much pain. We have only using SOLE for about 6-7 months and just had to buy a 2nd set but my son loves them as he has no pain when using these!!

Brad Hookey

No Problem

I would get discomfort and pain after standing all day for work. Since I started wearing SOLE Softec Ultra liners, I don't notice my feet at all. Not having to worry about foot pain is great!

Perfect for my work shoes!

I’m a paramedic on a busy 911 service so I’m on my feet a lot. I purchased these for my work shoes because I was having horrible left foot pain to the point I was wondering if I had a stress fracture and needed to see a doctor. I placed these in my shoes as soon as they arrived and the difference has been phenomenal! I no longer have pain. I believe a lot of my issue was coming from a lack of support for my arches and these insoles provide the missing link. I wouldn’t be mad if it was slightly more “cushy,” but it’s great support and I love that I’m not in pain anymore. Thank you for helping me take care of my feet!

Huge improvement

I got these footbeds because I have incredibly flat feet and I get a lot of foot pain on my road bike. These are perfect! They give just the right amount of support and cushion. My knees track straight now instead of pronating. I'm using these in Shimano RC9 shoes and they fit perfectly.

Wayne Earl Thomas

Most Comfortable Sandals

I have had problems with foot pain for years and the SOLE products has brought me much relief. I have 4 pairs of SOLE slides and unless it is snowing or unless I am going to church - I am wearing them. I use them on dry land and at the pool. Thank you

Husband was skeptical and now loves them

I already love this brand but my husband was skeptical. He was having knee pain with his new expensive work boots and wanted to buy another pair so I ordered him these inserts and he's great. Knee pain is gone and now he loves them.

Adrian Levin

Walking on air

Lifestyle Medium SOLES: I purchased these SOLES a few months ago since I have a flat arch and recurring heel pain. The medium support gives me enough room to wear with dress shoes or active wear, and the sole leather color blends well with almost any color of shoe. It fits like a glove, especially after molding the sole to fit my arch. It is support without effort, like walking on air, and I will probably be fitting my other shoes with more of these ...

Combining Firm Support & Comfort

The Active Medium Met Pad SOLES are great. Firm, comfortable support with underpinning touchpoints throughout the sole of my feet. I use it mostly for recreational footwear since I have flat arch and pain develops with daily walks. But not anymore ! I am considering getting the thicker version for longer walks & hikes. l like smooth material, even without socks you won't know you're wearing them. Overall, great support & comfort.

Ryan martin

Great flip flops

Great flip flop works well. It solved any arch pains I had I’ve been using SOLE products for the last 6 years very comfortable

Curtis Uffelman

Incredible Flips

My first SOLE flips were recommended by a local orthopedic store to help with my insole and heel pain. I wore those steady each summer for 6 years. I’ve had these for the summer of 2021 and they are as awesome as the last ones. Raised arches, comfortable fit and long life is why I bought more. Well worth the investment.

Pearl Galiz

Catalina flip flops

I bought these flip flops as I have heel spurs and was in a lot of pain when walking. Have been wearing these for over a month and love the support and look of these and they fit perfect. They are well made and worth the money as I find them very comfortable and the pain in my foot has lessened so much that I wear them in the house and outdoors! I would highly recommend these for anyone suffering any foot pain,

Mary K Bailey

Comfortable Sandals

I usually can't wear a flip flop style sandal, with the thong between the toes, but this sandal is very comfortable. The thong strap does not rub, and there seems to be enough support in them to prevent the pain I get from metatarsalgia. I ordered a pair for my son, and he is happy with them too.

Foot pain

These slides are comfortable, and fit true to size. They offer support and allow me to find relief from foot pain and swelling in my foot during the day. I like them so much I have one pair for inside and one for outside!

Incredible reduction I'm foot pain

The foot supports I bought are simply amazing. I work as a mechanic for heavy injection molding machines so I'm on my feet all day carrying heavy parts, driving bolts using my legs and feet for leverage and jumping and climbing onto machines. It put a lot of pressure on my feet and I would go home to pounding, swelling feet every day. After I tried these, it was instantly better with the burning pain replaced by only soreness as my feet adjusted to the mold. After about 2 weeks of my feet adjusting to the pads all my foot pain is gone and I go all week without them burning, swelling or hurting so bad they cause a limp anymore. Overall an amazing product especially for the price

Flip flops

Love this flip flop! Have bunion and metatarsal issues and this flip flop really helps me to be able to stand/walk with much less pain. I have 7 pairs of them.

Excellent foot bed

I have been using these footbeds for years now. They fit both my shoes and my feet perfectly and are very comfortable. The arch shape is exactly right for my foot and allows me to stand and walk without pain. The material used to make the footbeds is the right combination of flexible and rigid. An all around good footbeds for me.

Helped plantar fasciitis pain

I've used the SOLE inserts before and have loved them, but recently have developed new plantar fasciitis pain which the inserts did not seem to be helping as much. For my next pair I tried out the inserts with the met pad and wow did it make a difference! I actually can wake up and walk easily without pain in the morning. Highly recommend!

Game changer

These custom heat-molded insoles are by far the best product that I'm aware of for my collapsing arches and uneven pronation. In fact, a shoe expert in North Carolina recommended them when I was attempting to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail in 2016 (but was having a lot of ankle and hip pain and didn't know if I could continue). After I got SOLE insoles, I was able to backpack another 1,500 miles with none of the same pain I'd had. Now, after a few years of wear (and many more miles of use), that pair wore down and I ordered these for everyday urban use, and they're just as amazing. I feel so much relief, all the way up to my neck, when I wear these. It's well worth the few extra dollars for these. I wish more podiatrists and sports retailers knew about just how much of a game changer SOLE heat-molded insoles can be. Thank you SOLE! - Ben (Pittsburgh, PA)

Caroline Heuermann

Ahhhhhh!

Love these! Comfortable and good looking. Been wearing SOLE sandals over a year now and they are worth the extra price over cheap flip flops and sandals. Glad I got this flip flop style to add to my collection. The met pad makes a difference for me when it comes to alleviating foot pain from chronic osteoporosis and arthritis issues. And they wear well too. Been to the beach and all over wearing these beauties. Good quality material. True to fit. Purchased black but there were other cute color choices too.

SOLE inserts

I purchased this product after a suggestion from a podiatrist nurse recommended them. I suffer with metatarsalgia, bunions and fallen arch. I love these inserts. I was in constant pain. I had difficulty walking and standing because of the pain. With these I am pretty much pain free. I even feel relief from my back , leg and hip pain. They help align everything. Highly, highly recommend. I am on myfeet for 10 to 12 hours daily. I wish I would have had these inserts long ago. I have them in all my work shoes and also my everyday shoes. Love them!!!

Robert Wiebe

Very comfortable

I purchased these flips in June, and find them very comfortable. I wanted something I could walk into to go out to the garden, and kick off when I was done. They 're even comfortable to drive in. I have plantars faciatis and knee arthritis so I needed proper support. The cork footbed is very helpful and I am experiencing less foot and knee pain. I have even work them all day out running errands, and have much less knee pain than before.

Jon T. Wall

Love SOLE products!

Excellent orthotics that help with chronic back pain, and always help if I get plantar fasciitis (from not using them). I've sworn by SOLE for the past 20 years; very comfortable from the start for my high arches. Excellent, durable products!

Quick relief

I have been using SOLE inserts for almost 2 months for planter fasciitis. I experienced immediate improvement. While the issue still remains, the pain is tolerable and getting better each day. I have now purchased several pairs to replace other inserts for the same issue several years ago. SOLE inserts really do help.

Great value, great product.

Always had issues with flat feet, requiring some form of support. These insoles were perfect for my run racing flats and immediately remedied the pain and blisters I was getting. I will be coming back for more pairs!

Debra Massicotte

Thank God for SOLE

I have flat feet and mild bunions with foot/back pain relieved by orthotics. However it is hard to find flip flops that accommodate orthotics. I bought a pair of SOLE flip flops years ago and they are my go to summer shoes and will be my indoor shoes all year. The fact that they are more eco-friendly is an added bonus and I recommend these sandals to family and friends.

Frances Leukhardt

Awesome flips

This is my second pair; I have high arches the the sport flip allows me to walk without pain.

SOLE is number one

SOLE has delivered where others have failed. I have had foot issues for most of my life. One of my major problems is supination. Most insoles address overpronation. SOLE takes care of both. I have been using Performance Medium with Met pad (cork) for about 6 weeks. The medium works great in a pair of shoes I have that are very roomy. I then ordered 2 more pair in the Thin Performance for shoes where I needed a little more toe wiggle. My balance has improved and the achilles heel pain in my right foot is gone. I only wish I had discovered SOLE insoles years ago.

I can count on SOLE

I got my first pair of SOLE inserts maybe 10 years ago. I teach motorcycle riding, and when I do that, I'm walking about eight miles a day on pavement, and I have to wear boots. I got my first pair of SOLE inserts then, and what a difference they made. I actually felt like doing something other than sitting after teaching. A few years later I ended up with surgery for a Morton's Neuroma, and the doctor would tweak other inserts for me to use. Those worked for a little while, but I've had issues for a while with a metatarsal as a result of the surgery. Wearing any shoes that aren't made for problem feet doesn't work. Ahead of an important motorcycle event where I had to dress for the period, I purchased a pair of high top Converse, which I thought I'd wear once for the photo and that would be it. I purchased the Active Thin with Met Pad for the shoes. Perfect! I wore them throughout the week for the whole event and had no foot pain or discomfort. I never thought I would be able to wear shoes like that, but thanks to SOLE inserts, I can.

Husbands feet are happy now

I purchased these for my husband who was having pain in ball of foot. He has not had any pain in that area or his entire foot since the first day of use. He loves these insoles!

Pain relief!

My husband developed plantar fasciitis; we stopped in a local running store and the owner highly recommended the Active Thin inserts. What a difference they have made for him! It takes a few days but with the inserts, stretches and exercise his feet are so much better. When I woke up one more with my feet feeling cramped and on fire, he told me to try the same inserts. Within two days, my pain was significantly less (plus no more bare footing for me). We both have custom inserts from our foot doctor, these Active Thin inserts work so much better for us and last several months. We’re definitely sold!

Andrew Ver Planck

Significant improvement in foot pain

These sandals are great for anyone who needs a metatarsal pad for comfort. The feeling is night and day compared to standard flat sandals which caused unbearable pain. Time will tell how durable they are, but so far I am very happy with them.

Penny Gowler

Walking Freedom

I have been wearing the Sport Slide for years. I suffer from Morton’s Neuroma in both feet as well as have very low arches. I am unable to walk without pain unless I wear shoes with orthotics. The Sport Slide is very comfortable, has good support & allows me miles of pain-free walking. They last years and I will continue to buy them .

Awesome

I was having issues with my plantar fasciitis especially after spending hours on my bicycle. I decided to try the SOLE Active Thin with Met Pad. It was very easy to cut to size and mild the insoles to my feet. They seemed to be well made. I placed them in my cycling shoes. It was odd at first but I became accustomed to them. Within a few rides, I no longer experience any pain on long rides. Truly recommend.

Foot problem corrector!

I had been having bad foot pain in my big toes when I went to bed after running. I have a high arch, and the podiatrist recommended a metatarsal pad, which helped a little. After adding these insoles to my shoes, toe pain and hip pain went away. I deleted the extra metatarsal pad since these had them built in (a plus for me). Pretty great, and a surprise as I had just accepted that the pains were to be expected with my advancing age (55). I've been using the Performance Thin with Metatarsal pad for about a month now, and it took about a week for me to normalize with them. They didn't have any break in period per se, they just worked fine out of the box. Had to do a little trimming to fit my shoe exactly, but no big deal with a pair of scissors. The cork base is good, and appears to be very durable (I have plenty of cork shoes that last well). The rigid nature seemed like it would be an issue for shoe flex, but I haven't noticed anything different. Glad to be back in the happy zone and out of the pain zone!

Able to Hike Again

I started using SOLE footbeds three months ago and couldn't be happier. My bunions and flat feet used to get so painful from skiing, hiking, and long walks. I put the Active Medium with Met Pad in my shoes and never looked back. I was able to hike 20 km a day, several days in a row, with zero foot pain or discomfort. Before using these a 20 km hike would have had me in tears and out of commission for a few days. I did find the thick pad took a few days to fit properly to my foot but it was so worth it!

Michelle Ebert

Super comfy, good support

My feet are impossible to find a comfortable, supportive fit for. But these sandals fit great! I have bunions and high arches. Often experience sore feet and sometimes arch cramping. When I first tried them on, they felt a little lumpy. But turns out, they are lumpy in all the right places. They provide me great support and keep my feet pain-free! My only complaint is that when my feet sweat or get wet, the sandals feel a bit slippery (where foot meets sandal, not where sandal meets the ground). Love them and highly recommend to others. Wish they came in more colors (light or dark brown, teal).

Bree Raymond

Comfortable flips

I wanted a pair of flip flops that could tolerate being worn at the beach and near water, but offered more arch support than cheap foam ones. (The cheap foam ones give me very bad back pain by the end of the day.). I ordered the Balboa and the Baja. First impressions were that they seemed well made and solid. I was unsure about the lower heel. I'm very happy with both pairs - they have solid enough soles that they keep their form while walking over gravel terrain, they slide on easily (Balboa seem to be slightly looser than the Baja), they can tolerate sand and water. And of course, best of arch the support is very comfortable and my back certainly doesn't ache by day's end. The lower heel is quite nice while walking, despite seeming odd while standing. I would happily order again, and refer the brand to anyone looking for more support than cheap foam flips.

Perfect for morton's neuroma

I was leery buying the foot bed with the built-in metatarsal support. I have never had any luck with shoes with built-in supports, so I was afraid these wouldn't work. (I generally buy a regular foot bed and add the support.) I've been wearing these for weeks, and they are wonderful! They are very comfortable and I have had no pain.

Kara Jorgensen

helped relive bottom foot pain

After carrying twins my foot shape changed. Barefoot shoes fit great but I needed more support. My arched were screaming by the end of the day. These helped relieve my foot pain right away.

The definitive answer to foot pain

After spending over $600 on custom orthotics that were horribly uncomfortable and frankly, brutal for athletics. Hundreds at the physio to sort out a neuroma and tendinitis- THESE INSOLES have me my sport life back! My job requires serious fitness and on my feet for hours- I have little to no pain thanks to these insoles. I am gobsmacked at the quality. if you are on the fence- GO FOR IT

Good for planar faciitis

I ordered these for my running shoes after dealing with PF for a few weeks. I first got shoes with more cushioning/support with marginal benefit. The insoles fit perfectly inside my shoes right out of the box. For reference, they’re in a pair of NB Fresh Foam 1080v11. No need to cut them down. I wore them for a few days without running to allow them to mold. I was able to increase running distance by double (5k to 10k) with considerably less pain the next day.

Jacob Alan Albers

Impressed

I have been wearing these flip-flops for the past month. I was initially skeptical since I was unable to try them on in-store prior to purchase, but the comfort level has definitely proven the purchase was well worth it! I would recommend for anyone suffering from plantar fasciitis or knee pain.

Saves my feet and ankles

The insoles work great. I have little cartilage in my ankles and my arches have fallen made walking sore. This the the 5 pair of these I have bought because they are so effective in mediating and managing my foot problems. I walk pain free after every meal 6 to 8 miles a day.

Great product

I have had these insoles for about two months. At first they felt awkward, especially in a well loved pair of shoes. But they broke in nicely in only a few days (I chose not to heat mold them). I was struggling with pain in my ankles and feet. These insoles greatly helped relieve the strain and made it so I could actually walk and not just hobble. I have since gotten a few more to put in different shoes. I can't recommend them enough.

Great insole!

I have been suffering from pain and numbness in my middle toes and pad of my foot for a while now. I recently read that it may be Morton's Neuroma. I started looking around for a foot bed that would help and found the SOLE with met pad. I cannot believe what a huge relief they have brought me. I ended up ordering three pairs. for everyday walking shoes, golf shoes and hiking shoes. Since I go them, my right foot has gotten progressively worse so I have started the process of going to a specialists but it is confirmed as Morton's Neuroma. It is worse without shoes and, honestly, my only real relief is when my feet are up with no weight on them or in my shoe with the SOLE foot bed. I've now had them for about 4 months and they are holding up amazingly well. Besides helping with my toes they are comfortable in every other way. They make you really laugh at what comes with your shoes or what they sell in a pharmacy.

Jack Streich

Extremely comfortable

I have a broken bone in my foot that is always painful. It is attached to the outside foot tendon, which keeps it from healing. I have to give you all two big working mans thumbs up, Between your foot inserts and your flips, I have a very active life. I recently even ran most of a 5K . Thank you so much and keep up your excellent service also😃.

They really do work

I was told that these would help with Plantars Fascitis...yes! it has helped so much. I don't know why but it really makes a difference. Try them if you are in constant pain. It may make help you too

Deborah Cahill

Awesome Sport Flip

I recommend this sport flip to anyone. I have bought a few pairs now for my husband who suffers from plantar fasciitis and myself with lower back pain. The Catalina sport men and women's flip are very support, comfortable - just a great flip.

Shirley Keating

Answer to foot issues

I had Plantar Fasciitis about eight years ago which is very painful. My daughter recommended SOLE products as it had helped her. I bought my first pair and my foot problems stopped. I wear them faithfully around the house and outside and highly recommend them to anyone who has problems with their feet. I have tried several different types and do like the cork soles the best.

Heel Spurs relief!

I ordered the insoles and received them within a week and put them in my runners! A huge relief in heel pain within a week! They fit in so easy and stand up! I’ve been wearing mine over a month and the are like new.

Great insert post-surgery

These are helping my recovery so much. I recently broke my second metatarsal and had a Lisfranc injury. My surgeon recommended SOLE because I have high arches. When I was allowed to start walking again it was obviously painful. These supports make it easier to walk and have helped me get back to everyday life a little quicker. It was recommended that I use these footbeds for 6 months as my body heals. The met pad wasn't a requirement from my surgeon but I think it helps on days I know I'll be on my feet a lot. I now have 3 pairs of SOLE footbeds and a pair of sandals. I love them all.

Sheila S Hampton

Can't do without these!

I suffered from foot pain for WAY TOO LONG. My orthopedic doctor recommended these many years ago and I absolutely can't do without them. If I go one day without, my feet, ankles and legs just ache. It's amazing that one little addition like this insert makes a HUGE difference in the best way possible.

Great product

These insoles feel like they would be great for someone with metatarsal pain. They're firm and very supportive. Sizing was accurate. This is a quality product. I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis shortly after receiving these so I can't give a proper review on comfort. The firmness actually makes the pain worse but these insoles are not meant for rheumatoid arthritis pain. My mother has metatarsalgia and she swears by SOLE products. She has multiple pairs of sandals and insoles and she says they have helped with her foot pain immensely.

Jennifer Zagar

Great purchase

I have Plantar Fasciitis. My feet were hurting non stop for months. If I sat down for five minutes I could barely walk when I got back up. I bought these inserts and wore them a few hours a day for a few days and then every day. I have NO foot pain. I am absolutely, totally amazed!!! If they are a little uncomfortable at first do not give up. These are life changing!

I SWEAR by SOLE !

SOLE insoles are the best I've found for my particular feet: I've had a bunion since my twenties, 50 years. It was painful off and on but not now for several years. Since then I've developed a hammer toe and the start of overlapping toes. I recently declined a surgical option when it was revealed I would be off my feet for 10 months postop!! The foot surgeon referred me to a local store that carries supportive and orthopedic insoles. I DISCOVERED SOLE! and the rest is history. They make my feet comfortable in my shoes again. The ongoing changes in my feet have stopped. The bunion and hammer toe are easily managed with SOLE insoles. I'm ready to buy SOLE sandals next!

60+ hours a week on your feet? These are yours!

I work 60+ hours a week in an industrial environment, and these have been a life saver. No they have never “saved my life”, but they have saved my feet. This is my third pair in almost 20 years and I wear them to the breaking point. I highly recommend these if you are having foot pains in a work style boot.

Quick relief

I have been using SOLE inserts for almost 2 months for planter fasciitis. I experienced immediate improvement. While the issue still remains, the pain is tolerable and getting better each day. I have now purchased several pairs to replace other inserts for the same issue several years ago. SOLE inserts really do help.

DAVID E WATSON

Great shoes

When planter fasciitis kicks in the pain can be severe. Since I had the same issue several years ago, I knew the process. I bought SOLE inserts and they worked so well, I bought the SOLE shoes as well. They absolutely help to relieve the pain and after two months, I am at a level 3 compared to 8 when the issue began. The SOLE shoes and inserts for other shoes and exercises all together are working. It is a slow process but much more tolerable until it clears up.

Bye bye foot pain

I’ve never used a met pad insole and was a little worried I wouldn’t like it. I thought I’d feel it and it would be uncomfortable. Boy was I wrong. Not only did I not really notice it but after a long day on my feet instead of being sore and tired my feet felt great. I can’t believe what a difference it made. Buy with confidence that you’re getting a great product 🤙🏽

Kevin E Naser

Days Without Foot Pain

Ordered 3 pairs of Softec Response to use in various casual shoes. Have use inserts by SOLE for years in work footwear (in response to planter fasciitis issues) & have been 100% satisfied. Have also used SOLE Hiking inserts in my hiking boots and have been very happy. Also, have worn their flip flops with wonderful success. However, am not completely sold on the results of my recent switch to the Softec Response for my work boots. Have experienced a little return of planter heel pain and am still trying to get it worked out. I will continue to remain a SOLE customer however because of all of my past successes. When you are 68 years old and have always worked on your feet, you realize that your days with out foot pain have far outweighed those with and applaud the reasons why.

Saved my feet

I saw the podiatrist for plantar fasciitis. He recommended Hoka running shoes and SOLE inserts. I bought the Hokas and my pain didn’t get any better, so I added the SOLE inserts and the pain resolved after my first wear. I stand all day for work, so I keep a pair at work and a pair in my running shoes. I am sold on these! I have been wearing them for about 6 weeks now and they make every shoe incredibly comfortable. They saved my feet!!

Did not work for me

I was advised by a nurse practitioner to but insoles with met pads for support with metatarsalgia pain. I chose these. However, when they arrived the built in met pad did not seem to be a pad at all. It is not wide and cushy like most met pads are. The met pad in this sole is hard and pointy. It instantly made my metatarsalgia worse so I was not able to use them. I ended up going to shoppers drug mart to buy some soft wider triangular/pizza shaped pads to slip into my shoes.

No more pain

I am a barefoot girl, I like to exercise my feet, and I'm a stickler for posture including movement dynamics. In spite of all the care in my body alignment, and buying no heel shoes, I still experienced pain every time I wore shoes. Up until now! Since wearing SOLE orthotics (and SOLE sandals are now my house slippers) my feet feel amazing! I have tried all sorts of premade and custom made orthotics, foot taping, etc, and nothing helped until now. I might even try heels again, on occasion! SOLE gets my highest recommendation.

They work

Bought these instead of expensive orthos. The met pad helps with my heel pain.

Pain free with SOLE

I love SOLE! I have Plantar Fasciitis and these insoles work wonderfully,

Walking in clouds

I use these for my military job and when I say it's helped my knee pain and foot issues, it's a complete 180 degree change. I was prescribed a pair during basic training and have finally bought new ones. They lasted almost 8yrs in boots for me and are extremely comfortable. You guys definitely saved my military career.

Sarah Grant

Have them in EVERY COLOUR!

I have Costa's in almost every colour, I have them for inside the house & pairs for when I head out. Costa is ALL I wear in summer and thanks to SOLE I can still wear flip flops without the pain of my Plantar Fasciitis. I had to try a couple different styles before I found my glass slipper in the Costa! Best purchase I've ever made.

Julia Onderwater

Love them!

I really like these - I like these more than my 400 dollar custom orthotics. My favourite thing about them is that they make my gait feel more natural. I've always had foot/ankle problems, including overpronation, peroneal tendonitis, os trigonum issues, etc. I always feel awkward when I walk. These help my bad foot do that natural heel-to-toe motion properly. Overall, they reduce my foot and ankle pain a lot - I can't believe how affordable they are. Only problem is that now I hate walking without them.

Sarah Grant

Love Love LOOOVE

I work in a hospital and i spend up to 12 hrs a day walking on nasty cement floors , I have Plantar Fasciitis in my right foot, and these insoles have SAVED ME!! After only a couple of weeks of having them in my work shoes my pain level is DRASTICALLY REDUCED! If you suffer ANY foot pain you can't go wrong with SOLE, just give their products a chance. You WONT REGRET IT!

Great insole

I have very flat feet and have struggled with foot injuries because of it. This insole with the met pad feels a bit different at first but ultimately relives my foot pain I have had for years. These insoles offers such great support. I have been fitted for very expensive custom inserts from my foot doctor but I hate wearing them. My custom made inserts are hard as a rock no padding and squeak like crazy. I have worn my SOLE inserts for a few weeks now and I'm sold on these. I love them. I have since bought two more pairs and sandals from SOLE. I hope they are all just as great. I'm so glad I found this company. Life changing.

They're great!

My right foot has problems; a pronounced bunion and no arch at all. When I walk, it's like walking on my ankle, and is painful. At the end of the day, there's a huge swelling on the outside side of that foot. I have been through so many insoles I've lost count. None provide support where it's needed; they concentrate on being squishy, and what I need is firm support. I bought your insoles on a chance, fully expecting that they'd be the same as all the others. WOW! They weren't! They were firm at the arch and helped counteract the flatness. They're comfortable! The only thing missing is a wedge on the inside side of my heel, to tilt the whole foot outwards. Thanks people! I love them.

great product

I was given this information from a friend and decided to try SOLE as nothing else has worked for my constant foot pain. After putting the Active Thin Wide one in my loafers that I had not been able to wear for very long at a time, I can now wear when shopping, for longer stretches of time. My feet still hurt but at least I can walk with less pain. Thank you for your product.

Carol Momy

Best sandals ever!

I have bought several pairs of the Catalina Sport Flip over the years and have always been very happy with them. I have plantar fasciitis and these sandals are a life saver, when I wear them I have absolutely no pain. I have some for inside and others for outside. I can say without a doubt that these are the most comfortable flip flop sandals I have ever had. Thank you SOLE for bringing us such an outstanding product.

Wei Y Tu

Love it!!

I have been wearing SOLE shoes for 6 years. I normally would buy from a store that's close to me. This year because of covid I bought right from SOLE. Let me tell you best decision I have made this year!! They where cheaper by $30!!!! They also had a WAY better colour selection then the store I normally go to! I can't wear normal sandals from regular stores because they give me instant pain. If it wasn't for SOLE sandals I wouldn't be wearing sandals at all!! The sandals I bought right from SOLE are very comfortable and fashionable. I wear 1 pair as slippers and the other as outdoor shoes!! I plan on buying from them permanently!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

Jo Flower

No More Foot Pain

I am very thankful to my co-worker that suggested SOLE insole. I was having terrible foot pain in my toe area. I tried wider toe boxes which helped a small amount but after wearing the Softec Response insoles for a week or so I no longer have any foot pain! I highly recommend them to everyone I know!

Great cushioning

Added these to Alpine touring ski boots to fill some space as the liners packed out and found the cork, although firm, adds some welcome cushioning to the heel while walking in the boots off skis and while striding while skiing. Very nice. Also helped a little with a increasing tendency to get a trigger point in the calf aggravated that produces perceived (referred) heel pain.

Cute and comfy

I received my flips a month ago and practically haven't taken them off (I wear them like slippers around the house then outside in the yard) . They are casual, sexy looking, completely neutral and give a nude look to my feet! They stay on my feet quite well when I'm walking, but I would love another pair with a back strap so that I could do some serious walking with them. And most importantly - absolutely no foot pain!

Feedback

This product helped my son as his Chiropractor suggested he needed some arch support. He works on a kitchen staff and has been wearing SOLE for 2 months now I don't hear complaints about pain. I am so glad this product is affordable and very comfortable to wear

Incredible

I've suffered from hip pain and tarsal tunnel syndrome for years. Then I read about supination, which is walking on the outside of your foot. I realized I did that and looked up ways to correct it. SOLE's website came up and I ordered what was recommended. After just TWO DAYS my hip pain had receded to the point where I barely noticed it. I also found that my tarsal tunnel syndrome symptoms (caused by nerve compression in the ankles) were drastically reduced. When I took off my shoes and socks to go to bed, I was amazed that I could actually feel the texture of the carpet under my feet for the first time in years. AFTER TWO DAYS! I immediately ordered a second pair. It's rare that I've been so satisfied with a product, especially one ordered online. THANK YOU SOLE!!!

Great for running

I have high arches and was having pain under the ball of my foot. These insole fixed that immediately. Highly recommended.

Feet are in love

I purchased a variety of SOLE products for all of my shoes. Boots, running shoes, work sneakers, casual sneakers. I did the oven/heated custom fitting as recommended, and the SOLEs have formed to my feet perfectly (I have a medium arch). I'm finally at a place where I love putting on any shoe and moving around without pain and discomfort. I can finally purchase stylish shoes without looking like I rolled out of the foot doctor! My running game is back on, and the impact absorbing material doubles my recovery time. I HIGHLY recommend this product to anyone.

Great Insoles

I have had foot and ankle pain for years. I was using expensive orthodics untill I found these insoles. When I first received them I compared them to my expensive insoles they were almost the same. The arch height was the same - the only difference I could see was the heel cup was not quite as deep. The thickness was a little softer. In my opinion these are better then the expensive ones. I have them in all my shoes and work boots.

Everyday comfort!

I bought these as a third pair during a sale SOLE was having. I absolutely love these insoles, they provide great support and have helped my Plantar Fasciitis more than anything else I have done, yes pain relief!! I use these daily in my athletic shoes, also love there flip flops for summer time, the same great support.

Great insole

Have arthritis in big toe joint. Has alleviated pain and provide great support

So far so good!

Originally I bought these to alleviate toe pain from an old turf toe injury. I liked that they are made from recycled cork and that they are molded to my foot. They fit great in my On Cloudboom runners without a need to trim them. I've had them for about a month and, granted I haven't done much for long distance, I haven't experienced any toe pain and really like the added support they provide. Only issue is I notice they make a low squeaking noise when I walk. Don't really notice it when I run though.

Game changer

I have had several foot surgeries and have lived with foot pain for years. My SOLE inserts have been a game changer for me. My pain is much better and I can do more active things again!

Offers Stability

I have paralysis in both of my lower legs and feet. The insole provides arch support and stability. Otherwise I would stand and walk on a hard, flat carbon fiber footplate. The insole provides support arch support and decreases nerve pain. Also prevents my foot from moving side to side within my shoe.

Take no steps! Without this.

If you are on your feet all day or night, walking on hard (concrete) surfaces or uneven ground while hiking or running, this footbed will not only keep your feet comfortable but they will help align your back so that you're not placing pressure on one section of your feet causing back pain and spine misalignment. These were recommended to me by a board certified podiatrist for arch support, but I have discovered over the years I've been wearing them that they are much more than arch support. Without a good foundation life can be challenging. Wearing these may not eliminate those challenges but they will make them easier to bear. I wouldn't consider wearing any shoe without these inside with the exception of my reefs. I know these cost more than their competitors but once you've experienced the quality and comfort, you'll realize they have NO competition. These are life changing!

Walk again

Can finally walk again without foot pain. I now own six pairs of these in all the different styles. Will not walk out the door without them.

just the right product :)

I needed some new insoles. My friend told me how her new pair of SOLE Active inserts way fixed her foot pain and showed me her pair. They looked exactly like what an active shoe insert should look like so I bought a pair. Wow! What a difference! New life to my old shoes. Better life to my hiking boots and way happy feet to my work boots, all from one new pair of SOLE Active inserts. I've had 'em for about 2 months. They're durability seems to be great (looking forward). The fit is good for 4 out of 5 pairs of my footwear. And yes, they are comfortable! My fifth pair is just a bit small for the insert so I have to stay with my old pair of inserts. Exceeded my expectations for comfort. In my opinion, BUY 'EM!! They work!

Allows me to walk pain free

The product was recommended by my Doctor. Allows me a pain free day.

Great results

These insoles have been a key part of my eliminating achilles and arch pain. It keeps me running without pain. They are in all my everyday and running shoes now. It does take a little time to feel comfortable while running if you haven't had this good type of support in the past but they allow me to run injury free for the problems caused by lack of arch support in the past. I have been using them for the last 1-1.5 years and love the results.

I NEED the Costa in EVERY COLOUR

I originally ordered the Balboa Flip in a sz 10. Unfortunately it didn't fit at all, too short & tight , SOLE were awesome and sent me a new pair in a 11 , but they were to BIG... I sent both pair back and SOLE refunded me. I ordered the Costa Flip sz 10 & was nervous about trying them on, they slipped straight onto my feet , perfect length and fit !!! Now as soon as they are restocked I'll be getting them in every colour.... They are soooo comfortable I can't believe I didn't know about SOLE sooner . If you do order and they don't fit , try another style... I'm glad I did. They have helped reduce my footy pain dramatically. 10/10 Thank you !

A new beginning

I have suffered with a left foot Morton's Neuroma for years. I could never hike more than 4 miles (with or without backpack)....UNTIL NOW!! These inserts are no joke and there is absolutely no hype in the claims. Proof? I just returned from a backpacking trip to Sedona, AZ & the Grand Canyon with newly installed Active Thick with Met pad. It was trial under fire. Result? Zero foot pain....and I mean ZERO. Canyon hike alone was 16 miles with steep descent and ascent. That hike was followed up with long hikes in Sedona...again with zero foot pain SOLE is truly a game changer and I highly recommend them!! - Charles Dyke, Winthrop, ME

Great soles!

These soles really help me out with my back pain and being able to walk and stand longer with out increasing my pain. If you are on your feet a long time or want to walk longer without pain I strongly suggest getting a pair!

Works very well for my metatarsal pain

After an increase in snow shoeing and cross country skiing frequency, I began to feel acute pain in my metatarsal head when walking, especially barefoot on hard surface, but then it progressed to walking at all times unless I taped my foot to lift the metatarsal heads. It's tough to tape your skin daily so it was time to finally get orthotics. I bought a thin pair with met pad for my every day shoes and the thick ones with met pad for running. With the insoles I was able to KEEP running in spite of the injury (although I taped at the same time at first) but soon stopped the tape and the orthotics alone were enough to give me relief. After about 6-8 weeks it had healed enough that I could walk barefoot indoors occasionally without pain. I still prefer to wear the insoles on a daily basis as my transverse arch has chronically dropped and it is more comfortable to walk/run with them supported by the insoles. I am also a physiotherapist and I recommend these SOLE moldable arches as a first resort before spending hundreds of dollars on custom orthotics. Great service also!

Ski boot footbed

Put them in an Intuition liner that was heat molded for my ski boots. Met pad is not so large that it is noticeable while skiing but works well and prevented and cramping or pain under the forefoot,

Game changer

I had a friend that got these for me and it changed my world. I wear boots all day, everyday on concrete. My feet would throb every night but now I have these in all boots and no more pain. I have purchased these for several friends who now have them in all their boots. 60 bucks well spent.

Yes they are great

I'm a park ranger and I hike for a living. I have suffered from neuromas on both feet and two years ago got the gift of plantar fasciitis in both feet. After several cortisone shots and trying costume orthotics and several expensive other brands I stumbled on SOLE products. Now after several months with SOLE my feet are 90% better and I can hike without pain again. Yes they do help.

Plantar Fasciitis

I have had an injection in my heel that worked but went away and physical therapy for plantar fasciitis for 3 months. I ordered a pair of medium footbeds designed to help with the pain I have experienced for months. I have followed the therapy recommendations and with the footbeds the pain is virtually gone. I have tried other footbeds and experienced some help but no where near what SOLE is giving me.

Love these SOLEs!

I've used my SOLEs for years and just reordered for my new sneakers. I love them, super comfortable, great support, easily fits inside any tennis shoe.. most importantly, I have plantar fasciitis and they save me from foot pain daily!!

No more foot pain

I have for many years used support insoles. I was using the Barefoot Science product and really liked it. The reason for the change was price. I decided to look around for an alternative support. I was looking for a Canadian product and the bonus was SOLE used recyclable material. I decided to try a couple or pairs and I am very satisfied. I walk to and from work with a backpack for about 2 Km each way. I've been doing this for about ten years. I started to suffer from foot pain (plantar F) because I was carrying more in the backpack. I'm happy to say that since using SOLE my the foot pain is almost totally resolved. The Performance Mediums I purchased for my golf shoes. I also purchased Thins for my dress shoes and about six pairs of Thick for walking shoes and snow boots. I also bought slip on shoes that I use for slippers, they are great. I recommend the product to all the sore feet. Thank you SOLE!

All Day Comfort

These are my first pair of SOLE sandals. I always had Reefs but recently would get plantar fasciitis pain after being in them all day. I switched to the sole sandals and haven't had any pain since. They look like normal nice sandals and provide all day comfort.

Lifesaver

I was looking for help for my plantar fasciitis which struck me suddenly as I turned 60 and entered retirement. Golfing, Hobby Farming, Fishing, Hiking, Walking all became activities that caused me to search for all kinds of products to help with pain until I found SOLE. This product works effectively, right away, and it is simple to customize to your arch. I now have them in all my shoes. Because I am thrifty (married people like myself may insert "cheap"), I purchased SOLE products one at a time at first. I needed to make sure they worked and I still had a few other products on the go that I had already spent money on --that didn't work by the way. SOLE arch supports are durable and comfortable. They fit well in all shoes from rubber boots to work boots to golf shoes even work well in slippers. I have used these products in my daily shoes for over two years and I have now converted all my shoes to SOLE because they work!

Saved my snowboard boots

Had foot pain when wearing my snowboard boots. Replaced the old liners with these and the pain is gone! Super comfortable, I can't recommend them enough!

Great for chef shoes

Bought them for my son who as a chef works 11 hours on his feet. Previously his socks would shred under the balls of his feet from all the pressure and cause a lot of foot pain in that area. After using the active medium pads he can't believe how much better his feet feel! He wants pairs for his non work shoes because his feet ache without them.

Bunion Suffering, Foot Care Nurse Recommended

I have had bunions since the age of 13 and am now 36 likely related to flat foot arches. I first purchased one of these insoles to place inside my K-Swiss shoes (which I purchase in men's sizes despite being a women due to the larger toe box) a few years ago. I absolutely love these insoles. LOVE. LOVE THEM! I have had virtually no bunion-related pain since using these in my work shoes when previously I was on the surgical wait list for bunion removal surgery. For more context, I am a nurse who works acute care; 12 hour shifts most of which is spent speed walking through the unit. I can't say enough good things about these insoles. My feet are no longer in excruciating pain by the end of my shifts -- and this has remained true through the 2-3 years that I have used them. I am still happily using my first purchased SOLE insole in my work shoes and ended up buying another pair for a video review and to use in a new pair of work shoes that I am currently breaking in. I tell EVERYONE about these insoles because I love them so much.

Very happy!

I broke my foot 6 months ago (Lisfranc mid foot multiple bone and ligament injury) and the recovery has been brutal. I tried many therapies, but the constant aches and pains have not yet gone away. The SOLEs made such a big difference for me, I no longer wake up with stiffness in my mid arch and toes, it helped tremendously! Very very happy I found these, thank you!

ANNE-MARIE FRANDSEN

work medium

These footbeds have saved my feet. I paid $375 for a pair of orthotics and wore them for 2 months and still my feet hurt so thought i would try SOLE bought a pair of medium work and within 2 days my feet were so much better i could walk around without pain so happy I tried these there awesome Thank You SOLE

Joe Byrnes

I am a cyclist and I have been having knee and metatarsal joint pain for over a year. When walking my left foot tends to land on outside edge first and then collapses towards inside. This puts a lot of stress on my left knee and met joint especially when I am on the bike. I read about cycling shoe insoles and SOLE was highly recommended. I decided to try and ordered a pair of Active Thins with Met Pad. What a difference they made in a week. I wear them in my cycling shoes and metatarsal pain has decreased a great deal. My knee also tracks straight as opposed to making an elliptic travel during up and down strokes. Met Pad in my case helped a lot. Despite my left leg being the stronger one I was only able to push 32% on the bike. It's almost at 50% right now. I guess my foot was all over the place. I ordered a medium ones for my walking shoes and they work great also. It has been only 10 days but the difference is big. Custom molding them is very easy, great soles at very affordable price. I highly recommend this product.

SOLE gave us relief

I bought two pairs, one for my husband & one for myself. My husband had used them sometime before, but this was my first experience. Jim had not worn the inserts for a period time & was experiencing aching and cramping in his legs & feet. He is a hard working contractor and also a detailed & precise cabinet maker, which causes him to stand for long periods of time. A few days after wearing his inserts he no longer suffers from the pain he was having. This was my first time using this product. I have bad knees, and am enjoying some relief after I started wearing my new insert.

Love my SOLEs!

Before I purchased SOLEs, I started to get plantar fascia pain. Ever since I have been wearing SOLEs, my pain has disappeared. It's very comfortable and fits well!

Foot pain no more

I have purchased 2 SOLE cork foot beds now and I will never buy another brand. Last year when I was experiencing foot pain in my functional fitness shoes I decided to give them a try. I was sold nearly immediately. They confirmed to my foot and soon after all of my pains and aches had disappeared. There was no question in my mind when the insoles of my beloved boots folded up that I replace them with the Thin footbed. Nothing short of amazing. I could stand all day without issue. I only wish I could have these in every pair of shoes I own. On the fence? Don't be. You'll be glad you tried these.

Can't live without them

I have really high arches and having to wear steel toe work boots for 10 hours a day is excruciating. I've been using SOLE insoles for years now and I can't imagine wearing my boots without them. I recently tried the Met Pad version and it helps with the pain I would occasionally get in the outside area of my foot right below the toes. These insoles are thick so make sure there is plenty of room in the toe box if you plan on using them.

Great for sneakers; too thick for Crocs

I am recovering from hip replacement surgery and have learned that I need arch support to correct my leg alignment from "duck-footed" to straight ahead. This Active Thick SOLE with Met Pad is perfect support for my daily walks when placed inside my sneakers. I first tried them inside my Crocs, my "inside shoes," and this was painful, as the Crocs have surprisingly little give. So now I know I need a Medium thickness with Met Pad for Crocs, Thick with Met Pad for sneakers. I don't know how I managed without this support for so long! Thank you, SOLE.

Best walking SOLEs

I had been wearing my Thick SOLEs for about a month now, unbelievable. I have 2 dogs so I am walking twice a day 7 km total, no foot pain, it all resolved. Prior to Thick SOLEs I had good runners on but always had heel etc .pain, these SOLEs are life savers, I also have slim ones for my flat shoes and medium for my high boots, I love them all and they all work for a different shoes.... very well made. With the thick SOLEs I will order half size bigger my runners... the comfort is so amazing for my walks... love my SOLEs!

pain prevention

I have been using SOLE for several years. The active Medium with the built in Met Pad is excellent, great for the feet.

Like Having Brand New Shoes!

I'd been having back and heel pain and I have high arches, which sometimes makes my feet hurt too. Once I slipped these into my running shoes, not only did my shoes feel like they were brand new, but within a couple of days, my back and heel pain was gone! Such an awesome product. I'm telling everyone!

Relief from pain

I was already feeling metatarsal soreness which would be relieved with a taping technique I used. I was considering orthotics since taping my feet regularly was starting to irritate my skin. Then with winter boots and a cross country ski day, I further irritated my left foot and was feeling sharp pain at my first metatarsal head. I ordered the Active Thin with Met Pad and instantly could walk without the pain. This is helping me walk more normally again. Customer service was AMAZING when I had an issue with the medium thickness pair I ordered. Definitely recommend this product! The shaping of the orthotic in the oven was actually very easy to do also. Happy customer here!

Foot pain no more

I have purchased 2 SOLE cork foot beds now and I will never buy another brand. Last year when I was experiencing foot pain in my functional fitness shoes I decided to give them a try. I was sold nearly immediately. They conformed to my foot and soon after, all of my pains and aches had disappeared. There was no question in my mind when the insoles of my beloved boots folded up that I replace them with the Thin footbed. Nothing short of amazing. I could stand all day without issue. I only wish I could have these in every pair of shoes I own. On the fence? Don't be. You'll be glad you tried these.

Cross Country Ski Boot Companion

These met pad insoles were the secret weapon for a full day of cross country skiing with a Morton's Neuroma. I've been enjoying them for the past 2 months in my ski boots and am able to enjoy pain free fun while using them for both classic and skate ski adventures. They are very comfortable and are easily switched between ski boots. I also enjoy the environmental footprint of these reusable materials. The ordering process and shipment and delivery was easy and fast. Super impressed!

Amazing inserts

SOLE inserts saved my life literally. Had planters facitis for months trying shoes, inserts, creams you name I was desperate! Finally found SOLE, ordered online and wow within days the pain was gone. SOLEs fit for me as I have high arches and they are perfect. The quality of the material used is firm but not too firm, just right. You do not want soft inserts. I would recommend SOLEs definitely. Lets just say from now on I will never be without them. Go order yours immediately!

Exactly what we needed! So happy we found these :)

Bought these for my mom as she's been using SOLE inserts since she injured her foot/leg. The local shoe store she usually gets them from recommend her the medium active & price gauged them. Active Medium have been working for her, but coming straight to the website we found so many different options & she herself picked these Thick ones out. Got them quick & she loves them. We will continue to order these from here for now on. Even though she has surgery in March to correct her foot issues, we're ordering a second pair for my house. She NEVER takes her shoes off (her arch is really bad) due to the pain, so we're putting them in some recovery sandals and then she'll have a pair for inside and outside. Very satisfied with the quality, fit, and quick delivery.

Lorna Conner

Amazing

I have had 3 surgeries to my neck...so I am in constant pain in my neck...back and feet. I purchased these and they are by far the only thing that keeps my neck and back aligned properly....my feet are the most comfortable they have been in years. I wear them all day long...I wish you would make running shoes out of this material...I would buy them. I have just purchased the cork insoles and fingers crossed they are going to help....I unfortunately can't wear sandals outside in the winter time. I highly recommend these....I just ordered another pair lol

The BEST

I've had 3 or 4 other brand of insoles over the years looking to make my shoes more comfortable and relieve plantar fasciitis pain. A friend was ordering some insoles for her husband work boots and I thought what the heck I'll check them out so wrote the SOLE name down and then googled and found you. When I saw the met pad versions I decided to "gamble" on yet another insole. It was a good gamble because now I have 6 pair of met insoles, thick for hunting boots and medium for tennis shoes and dress shoes all with the met pad. Guess what? No more plantar fasciitis. The SOLE insoles were easy to mold, fit my shoes perfectly, are comfortable and the met pad seals the deal for me. I honestly will get more of these in the future. Love'em!!

Sole

Two years ago I was having a lot of pain in my feet I went too a Podiatrist after a examination found I did not need special orthodics made. I was sent to a store that sells running shoes and SOLE inserts, they have eliminated most pain. I am very satisfied with this product.

No more pain

I have a Mortons neuroma, and the pinching had become unbearable. I was searching online for inserts with metatarsal pads and found SOLE. I ordered the performance medium with the met pad for my winter boots that have no support of any kind. What a difference! This insert, unlike my others, is full length, which keeps it in place. If it had needed a trim, it could have been cut to fit. I highly recommend these inserts. I have not felt a single pinch!

Michael Chinn

No pain on Monday

I ruined my arches by wearing cheap flips as a kid thru my twenties. That took a toll and required me to get orthotic inserts for my shoes. On the weekend, I looked forward to wearing flips but always paid the price on Monday with really sore feet. SOLE orthotics have been a gem and I was so pleased to have the same comfort and support from their flips. I love wearing these! No pain on Monday!

Greet insole for cycling

I use these for cycling and they've turned a once so-so pair of shoes into very comfortable shoes that i can use on 3+ hour rides. I used to get pain on the outside side of my foot after a few hours but this insole has helped get rid of it. Plus my higher archer know feel nice and supported.

Chike E.

Feels Great!!

I bought the Costa because I'd been feeling pain in the balls of my feet probably from being at home so much during the pandemic. I'm glad I got them because they made a difference right away. I've had them for about 2 months now. The shape is perfect and seems to give just the right support everywhere my feet needs it: arch, heel, and ball. The material is soooooo comfortable with just the right balance of firmness, cushion and bounce. I feel like I'm walking on air. This is one of the best things I've bought anywhere this year and last.

Too Thick

I have metatarsal pain that hasn't gone away for months, so I tried these soles out. I ordered them originally for my work boots, but they were too thick. So I've tried them in every shoe and boot I own and they are too thick to wear in anything. I actually twisted my ankle going down some stairs trying to wear them with a pair of sneakers because my foot was too high in the shoe and my ankle wasn't supported. They would be really comfortable and help me if they weren't SO thick. I wish I hadn't bought them.

Best insoles ever

These insoles are excellent. I had to give up my daily 8 Km walks for 8 days and ride the stationary bike because of extreme pain from metatarsalgia in my right foot. This condition had been undiagnosed but getting worse over the last few years and I googled the symptoms, which brought me to your website. I followed the oven instructions and fitted the insoles in place of the factory insoles and began using them that day. The met pad made a 100 percent difference and I am now pain free when I walk or hike. I have a pair in my hiking boots and my trail shoes. My only regret was that I had not found your company 5 years ago when the metatarsalgia started.

Didn't help

I'm a bit disappointed with my 2 pairs of Sole insoles I bought a few months ago, for the purpose of easing pain with a morton's neuroma. I specifically got 2 pairs with the Met pads because reviews were pretty good. I don't know if it's because I have high arches, but the med pad didn't do anything to help with my foot pain. It feels like the pad needs to be much more pronounced. I might just add an additional met pad onto the sole myself. They are really comfortable insoles, but not worth the money for me at all.

Roy R Plana

Quality Continues with this Slide

Replaced my current Slide with this and it continues to meet my needs. Specifically, I have flat feet and need the SOLE stability in the arch to avoid pain. I had my prior slides for over five years so the return on investment is excellent. The soles are still in great condition, I just wanted to get a new pair. The only suggestion is that the seam on the band on top simply eroded. I tribute that to a lot of wear, both inside and outdoors for many years.

Cycling Shoes and Ski Boots

I have these in my road cycling shoes and they've eliminated any discomfort and keep my feet feeling good on century+ length rides. My 11 year old son complained of foot pain in his ski boots so we inserted a pair and he's commented on the comfort ever since. The Met Pad is particularly important for me and not something I've been able to find in any other option. Great products I will continue to buy well into the future.

Majid Goodarzi

Great product

Amazing product I don't get back pain like I had before and no cramp foot and legs i highly recommend this product I got 3 insole and 2 sandals and can not be happier . Thank you SOLE!

Thank Heavens for these insoles!

Oh I'm so happy to have found these insoles! I've struggled with plantar fasciitis pain for the last year or so. I've tried wearing a walking boot 24/7, wearing a variety of different night splints, and have tried a couple of different insoles, and these have made the most difference! I love that the SOLE Active Thin w/Met Pad fit into more of my shoes than the other insoles (the size 8 pad fits perfectly in all my size 8 and 8.5 shoes), and after wearing them for a little more than a week, my foot pain is GREATLY REDUCED! While I can't speak to the longevity/long term use of these insoles, I'm optimistic and I've planned on order a couple more sets so I don't have to take them in and out of different pairs of shoes.

Love it!

I have plantar fasciitis and it was bad enough that even my running shoes didn't feel good after a few hours. I got these insoles about a month ago and my foot pain is gone! Unbelievable, been fighting this for two years and wish I'd pulled the trigger and bought them sooner. Totally worth every penny.

Best orthotics ever

My doctor recommended these orthotics a few years ago because of my plantar fasciitis. I went online and saw the price and thought, Wow, my last pair I bought was over $300". For the price alone I was willing to give them a try. I'm so glad I did. They are so comfortable, I am pain free in my feet and I have never looked back. If you are trying to decide if you want to buy these, look no further. Buy these and you won't regret it.

Morton’s Neuroma Reflief

I've been trying different insoles from different companies for over a year trying to find one that worked. This one does! It fits in my runners perfectly without filing them up with too much padding on the bottom. The metatarsal pad and arch support really improve the discomfort of the neuroma. I've been exercising in them for 2-3 weeks and I've noticed a huge improvement in my foot pain lessening. Easy to break in.

Don't Leave Home Without SOLE

I have worn SOLE in every pair of shoes for several years. I grew tired of moving 2-3 pairs around between shoes so I recently purchased 2 pair of thins for my dress shoes, 2 pair of mediums for tennis shoes and a pair of thick for my work boots. I moved my old ones to my golf shoes and snow boots. I believe so strongly in the product that I purchased 2 pair for my wife, 1 for my child and 1 for a coworker with some lower body pain. Taking care of your feet impacts several parts of your body up to your neck (ankles, knees, hips, back and neck). SOLE are money well spent.

Joint pain went from a 7 to a 1

I've had lower extremity joint pain for years (I'm only 19), including patellofemoral syndrome and foot supination. Putting these in my work shoes has changed the game for me, truly: I noticed an immediate difference and my pain has subsided in the two months that I've been wearing the inserts. I chose to let the inserts mold to my feet over a few days and they worked perfectly. They give the shoe more of a firm footbed, which I like. 100% would recommend and would buy again.

Helped to cure my plantar fasciitis

I spend countless hours on my feet at work, and I've been in my role for 23 years. I suffer from plantar fasciitis. My chiropodist recommended that when I'm home to try the SOLE flip flop rather than walk barefoot. He sold them in his front store at his clinic. So I bought a pair. This was 15 years ago. The flip flops played a huge part in curing my fasciitis and I've bought 2 other pairs since then. My most recent purchase was a Christmas gift for my sister who also spends quite a lot of time on her feet and now suffers from plantar fasciitis. I swear by sole products to aid in this condition. The quality of the product is unbeatable, and the comfort: well let's say that I will not wear any other shoe at home. They are the most comfortable shoes that I own. I also experience less ankle pain than in the past and I attribute this to the ergonomics of these shoes. I am interested in trying a sole product as my shoes for work.

They helped!

I am a supinator and running and walking has become painful due to improper alignment. I wear wide toe shoes and have even tried custom orthotics. I have been wearing these for 30 days (and stretching somewhat more) and it is making a significant difference. I am buying a second pair for my second pair of running shoes.

The BEST

Absolutely love them. I have had problems with my feet for a few years now, and found it a pain to switch my orthodics which are very expensive from show to shoe. I have SOLE insoles in all my footwear now and have no issues with foot pain any longer.

Comfortable

I have an arch problem and subsequent foot pain. This cork based support provides good cushioning and has reduced any pain I formerly had. I would buy again

Very comfortable

I have arch problems and foot pain. This Active Thick product is nicely cushioned and provides excellent support. I have had no pain since wearing them. I would definitely buy them again.

Why pay 500.00 dollars when you can wear SOLES

I have had plantar fasciitis and achilles problems. After trying many things the doctor decided that I needed to see a foot doctor. I then purchased insoles at 500.00 dollars which in a bit of time worked. The sad part is before my 500.00 expense I had purchased your product but did give your SOLEs enough time to work. The foot doctor asked me what I had tried and I told him SOLEs and he asked how long had I used them for. I then knew I could have saved me money and pain I have recommended them to my sister and friends. I recently bought a pair for my son as a Christmas gift, (he wears the 500.00 ones! and I told him SOLEs where as good) I have purchased them from a couple of stores in Winnipeg (Canadian footwear and Legacy) before buying direct from you. I like the thin SOLEs because they fit nicely in my shoes with great support as I wear them in all my shoes every day. Great product

Amazing Insoles

I suffered from plantar fasciitis for almost a year. I would limp in pain when I got out of bed in the morning. I would hobble when I walked. I had tried other insoles but they only gave me temporary relief. Then I tried these insoles. They saved my feet! Within 2 weeks the pain was gone. I could walk and move without pain. The insoles fit like a glove. I can now walk 18 holes of golf and suffer no pain that day or the next. I have them in all my shoes and now I can say goodbye to foot pain. For over a year now. They work!

Saved my feet

I have had orthotics made for me, I found them so uncomfortable and my foot slid around on them. These SOLEs saved my from so much pain. My feet and knees have never felt better. Not only that but they fit in most shoes so easily because they aren't big and bulky. I don't leave home without them now and will use them forever. Highly recommend!!

Pain relief!

After some research and the purchase of many other brands of insoles, I have finally found the perfect one for my feet. I had significant relief from my planter fasciitis within a couple of days. I purchased my second pair just 2 weeks later. SOLE will be my go to brand of insoles.

Life changing

After living with pain in my tendons and Morton's Neuroma, I have finally been able to get back to normal walking and activity! These met pad insoles have given me my life back!

Incredible

I purchased these for cross country and downhill skiing, as I have flat feet and suffer arch pain. Since the first time I wore these I have not suffered from arch pain or cramping. Bonus is that my feet are less tired; I no longer have pain radiating from my heels and under the ball of my foot after skiing. Absolutely transformative experience

Excellent Product

As a long term sufferer of flat feet and plantar fasciitis, foot pain used to be my norm. I then discovered custom orthotics but with limited application and use. When I discovered SOLE my life changed! I could go back to doing all of the things I loved. And wear multiple types of shoes and sports equipment! SOLE products are amazing and my go-to now! Thanks

Saved my feet!

I have been a SOLE wearer for about 15 years. During my first pregnancy, I had the worst Plantar Fasciitis and could barely walk. A local store recommended that I put a pair of sole insoles inside every pair of shoes...and it worked. Completely cured my foot pain. Thanks SOLE!

Barbara M Badgley

Saved my ankle!

Having purchased a pair of Merrells for everyday winter wear, my left ankle became bruised. After a week of pain and now a very bruised ankle, I put these SOLE Work Mediums in. Not only did they feel good, but my ankle seemed less painful. In a week, the bruise was gone and there was no pain. Truly, it was blessed relief. I should have thought to do it sooner. Duh! I love these products for the comfort they have given me over the years.

Cork is the way

I've tried many of the SOLE products now and I found the cork footbeds to be the best. I'm not sure why exactly, but I have much less foot pain with this bed. I feel a little spring back with them, a little shock absorbing. Cork is unique and none of the other pads feel this way. Sadly I see REI is closing them out, I hope that doesn't mean this product is EOL.

Made such a difference!

I am a daily walker and have significant lower back pain or leg aches if I am not wearing support on my feet. I have high arched and found that the SOLE insole helped to support my arch from collapsing. The met pad is a must for metatarsal pain. Its subtle enough that it almost feels like it isn't there but has all the benefits of a met pad. Highly recommend these insoles!

Michelle Erika Lange

4th Pair - Love Them!

I love these flip flops, and have bought multiple pairs over the years. I wear them every day (I'm in a warm climate) and they hold up pretty well. They REALLY help with my feet (bunions) and ankle problems. Since I've purchased SOLE products my foot pain is a thing of the past. I was super skeptical when my doc said I should wear supportive footwear only. I really didn't believe it. But now I do. SOLE is the ticket!

Game Changer

I was recently diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my left knee. I was taking daily walks outside for exercise but it caused pain. I had trouble getting up curbs and stairs, etc. I bought these and the first time I wore them I felt the difference immediately! Walking is no longer an issue, nor are stairs. I thought I was headed for more PT, injectors, or possibly surgery with the way it felt prior to wearing these. THANK YOU!!!

Stacey

Comfortable and functional

I have terrible foot pain if the ball of my foot is constricted at all and these slides are super comfortable and cause me no pain. Yet they stay on well even though they are not constrictive. I am very happy with them.

Knees feel better.

As a pain-free runner for about 30 years I was mortified when my right knee began really hurting in April. Despite icing and taking it easy things weren't getting better so I went to the physical therapist in early May. John gave me two "prescriptions"" 1. a series of exercises which I haven't been good at doing, and 2. to buy SOLE active insoles -- which I ordered that day. The insoles made a world of difference -- as John said they would -- my knee soreness greatly decreased within weeks so I could briskly walk the dogs five to ten miles per day. Recently I've started running again -- with my SOLE inserts -- and so far, so good.

Susan Pederson

Even better than the rest of my SOLE sandals

Due to back and foot issues, I have been wearing SOLE flip flops exclusively for over 10 years, which explains why I own more than 10 pairs! These are sleeker and lighter than the ones I normally wear and I love them so much that I am wearing them inside instead of slippers. I have one leg slightly longer than the other, so my shoemaker fits the right one with a lift - not something you can do with cheap sandals. They are sporty yet delicate enough to wear with a dress. I have already ordered another pair! I am so glad my best friend, who was dealing with a foot injury, turned me onto these. My sister, who also has foot issues, is now a fan thanks to me. I bought her a pair for Christmas this year, because she wears the ones I bought her exclusively as well. All this style, and the reduction of pain makes life super sweet.

Excellent product

I suffer from plantar fasciitis. SOLE was recommended by my doctor. I tried medication, physical therapy but nothing worked. I purchased SOLE inserts, Active Thick and I am able to run without pain. I have purchased another two pairs to have them in all of my shoes.

Sole review

I have a disintegrating disc in my lower back which results in chronic pain. Plus I have some issues with my feet and wear orthotics in my shoes. I used to go barefoot at home but it was suggested to me that it would help if I wore shoes at home as well. I didn't want to have to wear socks and shoes at home, so I tried the SOLE slides and have never looked back. I've been wearing them for about 6 years now approx. I actually have been stocking up on them since the inventory is usually low, and also ones that I've liked in the past have discontinued. I also have some SOLE flips that I wear in the summertime, which are a great option when it's hot out. They are very light and uncomfortable.

Outstanding orthotics

This is truly an excellent orthotic for Morton's Neuroma pain. I've tried many different brands, but SOLE's are the best yet. I have a number of the Active Thin with Met Pads, but also tried the Medium and Thick orthotics - all work great depending not he type of shoe and how much room you have to work with. The thicker pads are a bit more comfortable, but the thin is actually really very supportive and has enabled me to wear dress boots with a heal without numbness or pain. I highly recommend these orthotics, and SOLE has fantastic customer service if you are in any way not satisfied.

Judy pritchett

Perfect for plantar fasciitis

This is the second pair of slides I've gotten from Sole. I have plantar fasciitis in both feet. On recommendation from my MD I started wearing them and have gotten long lasting relief!! I can finally walk with no pain!! This pair runs a 1/2 size small so go up a 1/2 a size. The Velcro makes for a good fit. Definitely will buy again!!

Great Insole

I have bad knees and these insoles really helped relieve the pain I was experiencing everyday. I have been using them for over a year now and I won't wear my sneakers without them. The fit was perfect. They felt comfortable right out of the package.

Beyond expectations!

I bought these for my boyfriend who has struggled with foot pain due to having flat feet. It's been two months since he started wearing them and they have done wonders for his pain. They fit great and seem to be holding up very well. I was hoping they would help even just a little bit but they've helped a lot and I'm very pleased with this purchase!

Insole review

I had went to my foot doctor for a yearly checkup and had talked about the fatigue and pain of being on my feet all day and climbing ladders at work. My doctor recommended I check out the SOLE site and recommended the insole I should look at. I went on the site and ordered a couple of pair of insoles. Since wearing them for a couple of months my feet and legs are feeling much better. I could not believe the difference! I am very happy with the product and the difference it has made in my life.

Always SOLE

I've been wearing SOLE orthotics for at least 10 years now. They have eliminated almost all the pain I was experiencing on a daily basis due to extremely high arches. I use the orthotics in all my footwear, including my slippers. From the Active Thick, the Performance Medium to the Thin Casuals, they all have a place in my life and in my shoes. They fit easily into my hiking boots and hiking shoes and have help made my trekking adventures that much more enjoyable. I've tried other brands - I'm sticking with SOLE. I find that I need a hiking boot/shoe with a large toe box for the thicker SOLE inserts to work comfortably.

They do work

These really do work. I started with the work boot insoles. I noticed a difference from walking all day with and without them. If you have low arches this will help. I notice my balance was better my knees hurt less and I could walk longer periods without feeling pain. I liked them so much I decided to try them in my casual shoes. They are costly compared to others but they do work. One thing to remember when buying shoes is that the shoes need to have removable insoles already or these will never fit. Your shoe choices might be limited but the trade off is well worth it. I can spend way more time on my feet with them than without them.

Great solution to a painful foot problem

I've been using SOLE insoles for years and they have been great. I now walk over 30 miles per week and over the past 18 months, I've started to have foot pain. I do have Morton's toe and suffered with a neuroma. I tried several different approaches to support and cushion my metatarsal area but all were problematic - slipping pads, pads that didn't conform to my foot, etc. I discovered the SOLE with built in met support about two months ago. They have been a lifesaver. I have them for my walking shoes and also for my everyday shoes and they have completely erased the foot pain. I also bought a pair for my husband's walking shoes and they have worked for him as well. I highly recommend these SOLE footbeds to alleviate ball of the foot and toe pain.

LOVE

Within a few days of wearing these foot beds, my heel pain in my right foot was gone. It's so nice to walk without pain! They are comfortable and fit my shoes just right. SOLE has a repeat customer in me.

Stewart Wood

Great flips

I had a lot of foot pain from a severe case of planters fasciitis and my Podiatrist recommended wearing these SOLE flips as slippers on the hardwood and tile floors of our house. After wearing them for a few months around the house my fasciitis is 95% better. The Monetery flips fit well and are very comfortable to wear. They are very well made and look good as well.

Life saver

I have an injured back and walking too much really hurts my back. With the active wide thick SOLE I can stay active longer and wouldn't wake up with pain in the morning.

Great product

I have purchased custom orthotics for years but have moved away from my person that fitted them. From a work chat, someone mentioned that he used SOLE inserts. Between using these and getting a new pair of hiking boots - my plantar fasciitis pain has been reduced about 90%. And, these cost about 40% of what I had been paying. WIN/WIN.

Tamara

Pain free!

I really love these shoes. I have heal spurs and plantar fasciitis and I have not walked without pain in three years. These shoes allow me to walk without pain. They are wide even for my wide feet but it takes only a few hours to get used to this. They are so comfy I really want to sleep with them on. At first they look a little like space boots but when you get used to them they turn into the cutest shoes ever. Very unusual and with beautiful colors. I can not recommend enough!

Caroline Heuermann

No more pain!

So happy with these! Helped my toes and top of my foot feel so much better. Love that Met pad and the lining is cozy and comfy. I like the way they feel and look!

Instantly comfortable

The ball of my foot always gives me a great deal of pain. I immediately felt these helped the issue, and now that I've worn them for hundreds of hours on the job, I am going to buy them for life. My big toe was sore for a bit, as it's adjusting to proper alignment. This is easily fixed by doing toe crunches, such as picking up foam and placing it in a bowl with your toe.

Paige

Awesome insoles!

Such a great insole! I used to have superfeet insoles and they weren't the best. However, the Lifestyle Medium insoles help with my knee pain (due to pronated ankles/feet). They're also very soft and give my whole foot support, especially the arch. It fits perfectly in all my shoes, and has started to really form around my foot. I'll definitely buy them again.

Amazing pain relief!

Have been wearing/using this product for a long time. Recommended to me by a professional to remove or lessen pain. Will not use any other so called insole!! Amazing support.

Arch pain gone

I stopped using foot beds because I thought pain on the side of my foot was caused by my foot getting too wide for them and the edge was digging into it causing the pain. Turned out it was a plantars wart. Once that was gone I started having pain in my arches. Got new foot beds and within a month or so the pain was gone. these are the best foot beds out there!

Bad idea

I have used the regular arch supports for many years and they have worked well. However, I now have pain on the left side of my left foot and I was hoping that these inserts with meta pads would give me relief. This was not the solution. It made the pain worse. I am sure that these would work well for the right person.

Svetlana Bell

I would recommend

These are great. They helped with foot pain. Super comfortable right away. I also use them as house slippers.

Helped me stand all day in comfort

I have very flat feet that made standing all day extremely painful. I got a job where I walk all day and I always went home in pain. I decided to get some SOLE insoles to see if they could help even the slightest bit and they did. I saw the return policy and figured there was no harm giving them a shot. Paired with a supportive pair of socks the pain is almost negligible. There's still some pain on long days but it's manageable and goes away after some rest! They helped me make my job manageable and made my time after work fun.

Jillian Dickson

Comfort

Love it! Fits my foot really well. Is tighter fitting than the Costa. Costa is better if you have "tall" feet. Leather is good, after the first seeking wearing it stretches a bit and becomes more comfortable and fitted. I have tailor bunion pain and helped

Sophianne Lalancette

Love them

I was having a lot of knee hip and lower back pain, so I decided to look for "healthy" shoes. They are great! I was worried at first because the sole is quite hard, and there is a weird bump in the middle, but it is very comfortable and did help with my pain. I added a heel wedge for pronation and my pain is gone when I wear these shoes. I cut off the heel part because it made the shoes difficult to put on and take off, and folded down it was quite uncomfortable. I use these as house shoes because of my knee hip back pain so taking off and on easily is important. They stay on well even without the heel part, however I need to wear thick socks otherwise the shoes rub and it hurts. I measured my foot according to size guide and it fits fine, I think even for feet the are a bit wide they should be good

Great Fit and Support

I have a college baseball catcher and he was having trouble with plantar and pain up near toe. These inserts have been awesome. Great support and no pain. The fit into his athletic shoes was right on. Best yet no pain!! He loves them!

Francine Toulgoat

SOLE Flips

I love the SOLE flips as they provide a good arch and support. As I don't have a lot of arch, I cannot find flips that will provide the support I need in "everyday stores". Most flips are flat. With the SOLE flippers, I can walk and wear them all day without knee and back pain. The only thing I regret is that when I ordered another pair, I made an error an ordered the wrong size (ordered 7 instead of size 6). I love SOLE flippers and can't wait to try shoes. Thank you! Francine

Lifechanging

I purchased these after a recommendation from my chiropractor to correct my flat feet. I didn't know how much pain I was having specifically due to my feet and the lack of support my shoes were providing. I was able to put them in a pair of shoes I haven't been able to wear because they were so flat but now I can wear them everyday and I love them! I will say, putting them in a shoe with decent support seems to overcorrect but putting them in something with a flat sole is fabulous! The first week or so I felt my feet were a little sore after 5/6 hours of wearing but now I don't want to wear anything else and I cannot wait to get more!

Great product

I was having plantar fasciitis pain from bike riding. I have been using them for 2 months. These have certainly helped, but not completely cured me, but much of the pain is gone. That said, my shoes are much more comfortable and supportive. The insoles were easy to heat and use, and fit perfectly. I bought a second pair if they wear out. Wonderful product.

Foot pain

I been using SOLE inserts for two years now. I'm always on my feet at work either walking or standing around. They are comfortable and have last a long time.

Pain relief

I have arthritis in my left foot on the outside center of my foot. My doctor referred me to get these and I was skeptical about it. But since he suggested it, I got some and almost immediately felt relief from the pain. I am able to walk again without limping and without pain.

Happy Joints and Happy Feet

I am flat-footed (and pronate), and while I love thongs, they simply don't do the bottom of my feet and rest of my body any good. I usually end up with lower joint problems from my hips down to my ankles when I would wear traditional sandals. The arch support in the Costa Flip allows me to comfortably wear them (and actually walk long distances) without any pain during or after. It is such a nice change. I wear them often on walks that are often a good hour or so -- not just to wander around in! The bed has a nice amount of cushion, and I never experienced any blisters! Not even after my first wear.

Margaret R Davidson

Really nice looking shoes

I am a huge fan of SOLE footbeds. I have plantar fasciitis and had constant foot pain before discovering SOLE. I really like these Lark shoes. It is hard to find dress shoes that accommodate a sole footbed so I am happy that SOLE has expanded to making shoes. These are nice looking shoes. I am a bit concerned about how the wool will stand up to mud or rain, but I plan to mostly wear them in my office so that should not be a concern.

Margaret R Davidson

SOLE has saved my feet

I wear sole footbeds in all of my shoes, and they have made such a huge difference to my feet. I can't wear regular sandals and I am so happy that Sole makes sandals that I can wear without being in pain. I love these slides. I have the navigator sandals, which I love, and the cork flips, which I love, but I think I love these slides most of all. They are comfortable, easy to kick on and off but stay on my feet really well. My only complain is that they only come in black. I would love to have a pair that were purple.

Excellent support and cushion

Works well for support and foot pain. Unlike prescription orthotics it cushions the large foot joints with movement. It is very good for allowing motion but giving support to the whole body. I prescribe it frequently for patients with foot pain with good results. The sandals allow support but cushioning

Alain Couture

So much comfort

They really help me with the pain that I was feeling in the middle of my foot. They give me so much support that I what to wear them all day. I highly recommand them!

Supportive

I purchased these due to a heel spur that was causing me tremendous pain. Summer is too warm to wear supportive sneakers all the time and regular sandals don't offer the support I need. I love everything about these, definitely worth the money.

Annette T Beach

Catalina sport flip

My physical therapist recommended the SOLE shoe inserts for my court shoes due to my planter fasciitis issue in both feet. I liked the fact that the product contoured to my footprint. It was at this time that my search for a sandal began. I don't like wearing closed toe shoes all summer. So I gambled and ordered my first pair of Catalina Flips and have never been disappointed. The arch support and heel cup support my feet. I am on my 8th pair. They are my go-to sandal . The support of SOLE products were my answer - I've been foot pain free for 8 yrs!!

Sharon C Grimes

Relieves foot pain

I rely on SOLE footbeds to prevent plantar fasciitis. They're better than custom made expensive orthotics. I don't wear shoes without them.

Heel pain GONE

I went to the foot doctor and couldn't afford the 400.00 customized insoles nor did I want the steroid shot to take away my severe heel and arch pain. I asked him about the SOLE insoles he had for sale in the office and he recommended them as well so I got them. Within two days my pain level went from an 8 to a 1. Total answer to prayer and haven't had to miss work. I highly recommend them. I work for Budweiser and my supervisor was babbling around today with heel pain. I gave him the link to this site and told him to stretch his calves. Thanks for offering such a wonderful product!

Life Changing

I love running. I was unable to run for 2 years because I had plantar fasciatis. The combination of stretching the shit out of my calves, starting super slow and super short distances, icing, and wearing the active medium foot bed as just about cured my heel pain. I still have to manage it but I am running 4-5 miles couple times a week again. Go SOLE!

5 stars!

Great product! I have Achilles tendonitis so wearing flip flops seems impossible now without suffering from a great deal of pain afterward. My Chiropodist recommended I try a pair of sandals from SOLE and he was correct. These flip flops are amazing. I just recently wore them for 2 full days on a vacay that required a great deal of walking each day and I had zero pain afterward. I'm impressed. I also like that they look nice / sporty and don't look plain like a lot of other sandal brands that provide foot support. 5 stars for this product!

Scott Wilson

Great option for support

I've been wearing SOLE footbeds for almost 4 years now to help with pain from OEM insoles, and they have made a huge improvement. I recently bought the Work Medium and have been using them for a bit over a month... they have been performing great in work shoes, casual shoes, and sneakers. Trim to fit was easy!

Highly recommended

My bodyworker, who makes orthotics, recommended the red Sole inserts to me as the best alternative to expensive handmade orthotics. I have now used them for several years, and recommended them to a friend who said they lessened his lower back pain.

Teresa G Torres

Solution for flat feet

I was born with flat feet. Now that I am in my 60's, recently retired, the pain in my feet had increased dramatically. A friend told me about SOLE. I bought the Mendocino support to wear in the house with bare feet or socks. This pair has made a real difference. The pain is gone most of the time as I have good support now.

Pain relief. Getting Mature (older)

It's really works!!! Perfect product!!! I am very sorry, I didn't know about it earlier in my life.

LOVE my SOLE

I am a runner and at age 56 I started getting pain in the side of my calf. I went to my orthopedic doctor and he suggested I buy SOLE for my running shoes. The pain in my calf subsided. Now I put a SOLE in all my shoes.

helped foot pain tremendously!

My husband has had foot pain forever. About 15 years ago, we discovered SOLE inserts and they have helped him tremendously! He uses a pair in all his shoes.

Ken McAllister

Love these sandals

I have a high arch and walking barefoot tends to aggravate pain in the arch area and my achilles. Wearing these flip flops prevents that pain and they are very comfortable. I have had my Baja sandals for about a month now and am very satisfied. Great sandals to wear everyday!

SHEENA ROBINSON

Wonderful Fit!

My mom suffers from bone corrosion and pinched nerves. Her doctor recommended her to use SOLE footwear. I'm just really happy that it truly works for her and eases her pain a lot more! I'd like to add that customer service is awesome and pretty swift too. Thank you SOLE for creating meaningful products. I will be sure to recommend you to as many as possible:)

Great insrets

I recently had a flare up of my plantar fasciitis after spending about 6 hours walking around in the woods. After about 3 weeks of foot pain I finally made a appointment with my Podiatrist. Even though it was via video conference she highly recommended getting new insoles and suggested that I get the SOLE inserts. She said they are some of the best ones on the market. I did my research on them and was surprised that they were made from recycled corks. I went online and ordered a pair of the blue ones and upon ordering them realized I submitted the order twice contacted customer service the next day and he credited my account the shipping charges as the amount of 2 pair should of been free. I was so impressed with them once i put them in my work boots the pain was almost gone within 2 days. I keep up with my daily stretching and have not had any issues in my feet ever since I inserted my SOLE inserts. I will be spreading the word about great these inserts are and have actually taken them out of my shoes and shown people them. I'm sold on SOLE.

Wincenty Kaszta

no other like that

This must be my 7th pair of SOLE. I have very troubled feet (metatarsalgia, Mortons Neuroma, Bunions... long list) , and can't wear anything else. When my pain comes back when I wear a different shoe i just need to wear at home for some time my SOLE, and the pain is gone. I am retired and on a very fixed income and SOLE is not cheap for me but if not for the SOLE I won't have my walks which i love. I always worry what will happen if SOLE stops making them. I think this is the only company of flip flops that has metatarsal pad in the shoe. For my runners I buy their insert but have to add the pad but... it all works. Congrats Sole Bella Kaszta

Sheila Lavell

Love the Baja Flip

I am so pleased that I ordered this comfy sandal, as it allows me to wear sandals again after an achilles injury and plantar facsiitis last year. I have no heal pain that I have had in other sandals, and I feel so much support it makes me feel confident to wear these and not fear injury. I ordered on line, so I was pleased the sandal fits to size. I love the strap material, as it is solid but comfortable, and the teal colour is really fresh and lovely. Very happy with this purchase.

Sue.whalen@rogers.com

Comfort and style

Very happy to find these flips from the source in Canada as I've been wearing the brand for years and had difficulty finding them locally when needing to replace them. I live in these flips indoors and out all summer and in winter they serve as my indoor footwear. Before finding SOLE flips at my orthotics provider about 7 years ago I thought I would have to wear only closed shoes and orthotics to relieve my chronic sore feet and knees . However I found that SOLE Monterey flips support my arch and look good, and I have no pain at all. I really like the cork option which I currently have but also have enjoyed the all man made version of the same flip. They are hard-wearing and last for years. I always take a pair with me when I travel for hotels room foot wear, Highly recommended.

Natalie Jamieson

Instant comfort

I bought these a couple months ago & although I generally do not wear footwear indoors during the summer months I have slid these on a few times when my feet are bothering me & instant pain relief. Well worth the purchase!

Kathryn Alexandre

Fantastic Flip

Since I got orthotics to put in my shoes for support I haven't worn flip flops and now after a few years I'm so happy to have found these! I've gone for long walks in them and am not in pain. I'm also excited to wear them on trips and at the beach since they are waterproof.

Saved my feet!

I normally don't write reviews but I thought it was necessary because these soles saved my feet! I bought these inserts for my peloton brand spin shoes that frankly are really thin really junky spin shoes. My large flat feet (M14) made it so after a ride my feet were hurting on the balls and heel of my feet to the point where I needed to ice daily. These inserts moulded to my feet and gave me the arch support I need to fit comfortably in the shoes and spin nearly pain free! Thanks sole! Highly recommend!

Quality of my new insoles

I am an avid walker and have used these insoles to help with the foot pain which was extreme. After using these insoles for over a year now I have almost eliminated the foot pain and make may walking journey much more manageable. I have recommended these exact insoles to a few of my walking buddies as well.

Didn’t help

Was really hoping these would do the trick and stop my foot pain. Didn’t change anything.

Making A Difference

I wasn't sure about getting orthotics without trying them out first. So glad that I did as they have provided much knee pain relief. I purchased mine at a store, loved them so much that we ordered a pair for my husband who has pain in his feet. We both plan to order a second pair so we don't have to switch them out as often when changing our shoes.

Recovery from pain of the feet

Once again very please with SOLE products. Now buying them for family members, sharing the recovery from feet pain.

SOLE footbeds = No more pain

I have a pair of shoes that were not giving me the support I needed. I have pain in my arches when I stand and walk. I was about to throw the shoes out when I learned of SOLE. I bought a pair of Performance footbeds and replaced the insole of the shoes with the new SOLEs. I've been wearing the footbeds for about a month and a half and I no longer have pain because the SOLEs have given me the comfort and support I needed. And I didn't have to look for another pair of shoes. I also love the fact that you can trim the footbeds to fit your shoe size. So easy. I've worn prescription orthotics before, but they were extremely hard and uncomfortable. I stopped wearing them. For me, these SOLE footbeds are better than custom orthotics.

Nice inserts!

They were recommended to me by a friend, after I complained of knee pain when running. Overall, they greatly improve my ability to run for longer than 20 minutes without pain. I recommend this product. I went with active medium - don't see a reason to chose another kind. It fits comfortably to the foot. Again, the reason I use these is to alleviate pain from the knees, when running.

Shellie

These shoes!!!

This is my second pair of these. My others lasted 3 years and only gave up a strap with my dogs thinking it was a toy! Excellent buy and helps with my back pain all day. Goes with all outfits as is neutral in tone. Definitely recommend!

SOLE

I love my SOLE flips! I have very painful feet and the only comfort I get is when I wear this product. The fit is just right and the support is perfect. I had previously had 2 pair and have completely wore them out. The material is durable they last a long time. Love them.

Shayna stott

love them

I bought the Laguna flip flop because i had foot issues. Walking 5 minutes in any other kind of flip flop style would instantly cause foot and knee pain. With the Laguna Flip I now can slip them on and go for a walk no worries. They look great too!

Amazing

I've had my footbeds for the month and I'm telling you they are amazing .. all knee issues have gone away mostly.. back pain has gone down .. when running I can tell that my legs aren't fatigued as much as they use to be. Definitely will be ordering more. Customer service was great .. very helpful in picking out the right footbeds for me ..

Rebecca Bosworth

These flip flops saved my feet!

I bought the product because I have been dealing with plantar fasciitis for the last 10 months. I was in extreme pain and a family friend recommended the brand. Since receiving my SOLE Costa flip flops, I have worn them every day inside and outside the house. They are the only shoe that makes my feet feel supported and comfortable. The material is flexible and soft, and the sizing guide helped me pick the perfect size (which never happens). Since receiving them, I have told many people about the brand because they have honestly saved my feet. I hope to order another style soon, these shoes are incredible.

I. Sanchez

Awesome

My daughter has a fused spine from L3-T3 and is on her feet all day. She had used SOLE in the past and went on to try other brands. She asked that I order her a pair of foot beds for her new shoes (cheap walmart non slips). New foot beds were inserted into her shoes and her back pain from standing all day has gone away. Strongly recommend these inserts.

JEANNA MILLER

Gave my Life Back

The title might sound dramatic but it's true. This sport flip saved my feet. I don't have pain while walking or night. Had to wear a walking shoe with orthotics. My feet were so hot especially the summer.

Matt Locke

Durability

More durable product than the cork version in high use shoes. I use in work shoes, I walk about 13 miles each shift 5 days a week. Have multiple pairs for multiple shoes. Keeps support as I have extremely high arches and pain and trouble walking occurs if I do not use these insoles.

Gregg M Long

Worth every penny

A couple of years ago I had a severe case of plantar facitis. Doctor sent me to get custom insoles at a cost of over $200. They don't do anything my SOLE Work Mediums don't do at a fraction of the price. For years, before I found SOLE I wasted money on competitor products from Dr. Scholls and Sofsole. They are junk compared to SOLE. I've put SOLE insoles them in all my shoes now and haven't had pain since.

Best flipsEver!

We love SOLE Flips! My wife got plantar fasciitis from wearing cheap flips. She thought her days of wearing flips were over until she discovered SOLE. They cured her pain issues and now she uses her flips as her primary footwear year round.

SHERRY MINOR

Best flip flops ever!

I have plantar fasciitis and this flip flop is so comfortable and helps to relieve the pain. I can wear them all day with no issues. This is the only shoe I wear in the house and I love that they are eco friendly. I have several pairs of shoes & flip flops and I will never be without a pair. I would highly recommend these shoes & insoles. Thank you SOLE for such a wonderful product.

men's exhale purchase

My feet have been painful for years and finally a doctor told me to try your insoles. They have been great and ever since I have been buying all types of shoes and sandals from SOLE. The Exhale shoes have the same support and comfort as their other products. The fit is good and the materials are also since I use them to work in so i would have foot support.

Work amazing

As a carpenter being on my feet all day, these insoles were the answer. No heal pain now and the insoles are very comfortable. Will be purchasing more for other foot ware.

SOLE Active Wide Medium for knee pain

First of all i would like to say SOLE products are the best in class. I had a knee pain as my work requires standing for a long period of time. That's why i bought SOLE footbeds and after wearing for over 2 months I can say that it works for me. Never felt that pain in my knee again plus these are comfortable. So i am happy with my purchase.

Betty

Fabulous for plantar fasciitis and everyday comfort

I bought 2 pairs of SOLE flips and they did, indeed, cure my plantar fasciitis. They prevented my foot from ever extending fully, when you get out of bed and step directly on the floor, which causes the sharp pain as the tissues that have started healing in the night get torn again and again. I put a waterproof pair right beside my bed, that I slipped into without ever having my feet touch the floor in the morning. I wore them right into the shower; again my feet never touched the floor. Then I transferred to a cork flip after that for the rest of the day at home. After 3 months my plantar fasciitis was gone! I continue to wear Sole flips, indoors every day and don't ever go barefoot anymore. After 10 years, my plantar fasciitis has not returned.

Happy customer... no pain!

I have been using them for more than a month now and my pain is gone, I couldn't walk without pain before. I am so happy that my brother recommended your brand. The material used to make them is comfortable and I am not going to stop using them now that I found them.

Been wearing these two months and my severe heel pain has gone away & so have the previous expensive insole I was directed towards! They worked until my feet needed to heal...the foot doc said he used the SOLE Products personally to give his feet a break...He Was right!

Forever satisfied

This is my third pair of SOLE inserts. They have become an essential part of my proactive plan to relieve back pain that originates from not having good foot support. They are lightweight, fit easily into my shoes, and are very comfortable. I will continue to trust and use this brand.

Wife Love's the Balboa Flip Flop

I bought the Balboa Flips, a few weeks ago, for my wife to replace some older Sole flip flops. My wife loves them even more than her old ones. These are her new favorites out of 3-4 pair. She loves how well they fit her foot and the cushion they provide. She is able to wear them all day standing on her feet without any foot tiredness or pain As always the service provided by SOLE is wonderful!

Knee problems solved

I owe a lot of respect to SOLE company. For some unknown reason I started having ankle pain on my right foot a few months ago. I was referred to a foot doctor, the same that had seen me during my childhood during 12 years and that fixed my problem having feet looking inwards. This time, the foot doctor made me those super technological orthodics that cost $400+. After 5 adjustments trying to improve them, because I was starting to feel a very painful pinching sensation in my inner knees (somewhere I NEVER had any problem before in my entire life), I came across SOLE footbed in a outdoors sale. I bought it thinking I had nothing to lose. I was pretty desperate at this point, nothing was doing it. My knees were in pain if I wore the foot orthodics or not, and the best solution was just not to walk at all : not an option at 32 years old! So I started using the SOLE footbeds, and all of a sudden, my knee pain disappeared! It was, and it still is, honestly so marvellous. I never told the Podiatrist I stopped using my custom orthodic, but now I got SOLE footbeds and my doctor was pretty happy I found my solution, so he wrote down the company name and went on recommending his patients the footbed. SOLE, you saved my knees! Thanks a lot!

Gail M Libby

Wonderful

I have flat feet and these sandals help with arch support. I have right foot pain due to this condition and I can wear these sandals all day and have no pain. I also like to use them as house slippers as it is uncomfortable for me to go barefoot. I love the fit and material of this sandal makes it very comfortable. This is my first pair but I will be purchasing them again as needed.

Donna A Lyste

The only flip flops I purchase!

After a season of painful plantar fasciitis, I purchased the SOLE product. Now these are the only ones I buy and have numerous pairs for around the house, garden, overnight bag, etc. Great product with the relaxed look of a flip flop but with a supportive foot bed.

Elizabeth Aldonas

5 Stars for Catalina Sport Flip

Fantastic flip flop with amazing support!! They have been a great help in relieving the pain from my plantar fasciitis. I've worn Catalina flip flops for the last few summers and wear them as my indoor slippers all year long. They're easy to clean too. You'll differently want to buy more than one pair.

Sole has saved my feet

I have been using SOLE insoles since 2002 after developing plantar fasciitis. I have them in literally every pair of footwear I own, including the slippers I wear around the house. They have made an incredible difference to my life. As little as two hours walking in shoes without the SOLE insoles and I am in pain. With the SOLE insoles I can hike all day. When SOLE started making flip flops I was so excited, as since you can't put an orthotic insole in a flip flop I had been unable to wear them for years. I now own the SOLE cork flips (which I love) and the navigator sandals (which I love even more) and I recently bought the Grace shoes to wear as dress shoes. This means I can have SOLE insoles under my feet all day every day. The other thing I want to note is that these insoles are basically indestructible. I still own, and still use, the first pair I ever bought back in 2002. So when you look at the price, keep in mind that you will be using these for years.

Stephanie C.

satisfied customer

These were my first purchase from SOLE. I have to be honest, when I first tried the flip flops on I wasn't sure I was going to like them. I purchased these flip flops as a recommendation from my chiropractor because I was having pain in my arches. I have only owned them for a short time (4 weeks) but the more I wear them the more I love them. I wear a size 8 and they are true to size and very comfortable. They are already molding to my feet. I am very happy with my purchase!

Emily Claburn

Most Comfortable Flip Flops EVER

I am so happy that I found these shoes they've helped me tremendously with my foot pain from chronic pain from neuropathy. These are the only flip-flops that I can wear, they are like heaven on my feet. Such a great product very well-built I even wore them walking in the river. They have a customer for life I have these in three different colours! Thank you SOLE!!

Travis Yamamoto

Magic! Plantar fasciitis delight

I love these slippers!! I have suffered with plantar fasciitis for a really long time. Usually stretching was the only remedy for the pain, until I was told by a friend to try these slippers. This is my 5th pair. I bought different colors and the sport slides because somehow, my plantar pains have disappeared after wearing SOLE slippers. I have spent tons of money trying to find a remedy. It's not an overnight instant fix, but after a few weeks of wearing these slippers around, my feet pain gradually got better. It's been 3 years and no more plantar pains. The insoles didnt work for me, but these slippers sure do. Magic!!

Love these

I was diagnosed with plantar facitis. and was talking with a friend about it . She too has it and she was referred to a podiatrist for orthotics. That physician recommended these insoles before spending lots of money on orthotics. She loves her sole inserts so I purchased two pair following our conversation . I immediately loved them when I put them in my shoes. They are very soft and supportive. Was able to work my full shift with minimal pain. Things have been improving daily . No cutting required , they fit my shoes like a glove .

Active insoles

A few years back I was having right arch and heel pain, so I went to see a podiatrist. He fitted me for orthotics but they were cost prohibitive so he recommended I try out SOLE insoles first. After I purchased my first pair, I haven't looked back! No heel or arch pain anymore and I'm able to maintain my 20-30 miles of running per week with no problems. I wear them in all my shoes, slippers, etc.

Cara Barter

Great support for chronic pain

I live with chronic joint pain throughout my body. Theses are the best flip flops I have ever had. I've had other orthopedic cork sandals before but nothing compares to Sole for foot support and durability. I bought my first pair of SOLE on recommendation from my physio therapist. They lasted me years. I'm sure this second pair will last just as long. I highly recommend these for anyone dealing with chronic pain. Good alignment starts in your feet.

Thomas Burchell

Comfortable and stable footwear

I have been wearing SOLE cork flip flops for two months, They are very comfortable and help with foot pain after a long workday. The materials a tough and take a bit of a break in period but once they are broken in I want to wear them 24/7. Great summer shoe , even around the house anytime

Love these!

I wear these footbeds everyday! They are extremely comfortable and reduce the pain in my lower back.

Excellent Quality

I started using this companies inserts 4-5 years back while in the Royal Canadian Navy. My foot pain brought on by poor arch and heal support while wearing sea boots and combat boots transversing steal decks, hard cement and pavement during my daily work routine. The pain became severe. I was eventually issued a set of SOLE inserts. The inserts definitely increased my quality of life. I eventually equipped all my footwear, civilian and military, with this companies inserts. The quality of the inserts are superb with excellent arch support and heal support with the cupping action at the heal. I swear by this company. Now that's myself. My wife has been suffering from foot pain as well for years, and kept buying cheap inserts. I ordered her a set of these inserts, we moulded them to her feet. She tells me that they have made a massive difference due to the support provided. They are expensive, but you get what you pay for. they do last quite a long time. Ive sanitized them and they come out nice and clean.

Perfect for Joint Pain of all Types

I have been using SOLE insoles for almost 20 years. They're comfortable, affordable, and they prevent ankle pain, tendonitis, and now that I'm older, all kinds of other joint pain. Thus, when I purchased another pair for myself, I also purchased a couple of pairs for my husband. He has been complaining of foot pain from bunions and knee pain. He works in HVAC so he is on his feet all day at work. He also lifts weights for multiple hours a day. Since he started using the insoles, he isn't complaining about his bunions anymore. He says they are comfortable, and they have definitely helped with his pain.

Best Insoles on the Market

A physical therapist recommended SOLE to me about 20 years ago. I had repeat ankle sprains and tendonitis in my Achilles tendon. Some of that was due to sports injuries, but I also have high arches. I needed better foot support. I was also an undergraduate student, so I had very little money. Thankfully, the student health center sold SOLE insoles. I have been using them ever since. If you have any type of joint pain, including back pain, you need these insoles. Since I have multiple pairs of insoles, they tend to last me for about five years. The benefits far outweigh the costs of SOLE products.

Excellent

I recently replaced some custom inserts with these insoles and have been very pleased with their performance. I have more space in my shoes and have been able to keep my foot pain from my neuroma at bay. I purchased a pair of these at a ski shop as well and use them in my boots and continue to have plenty of room and increased comfort on the slopes. I appreciate the environmental concern of the company as well, which makes me happy to support them.

Meredith Hutchison

SOLE is the Best!

SOLE footbeds saved my feet! My job requires standing and walking on hard surfaces all day and it had gotten to the point where I had to soak my feet the minute I got home. I've been using them for about 10 years now and will continue to. I put them in most of my shoes - including my slippers as I spend quite a bit of time in them when at home. SOLE footbeds took away the pain and let me get back to walking and hiking when I'm not at work. I love them!

The best insoles - keep my feet healthy

I have SOLE insoles in my performance ski boots and most of my shoes. They keep my feet supported and shape to my feet very well. When I started to experience some foot pain with accompanying plantar fasciitis I tried SOLE insoles and my pain gradually faded away after a few weeks of stretching and consistent use of my active and performance medium footbeds. I love them! Thanks a lot SOLE. R. Gibson Portland, Oregon

Best investment I've made

I work on my feet 8-10 hr shifts running around in retail. These insoles are fantastic, I have tried other brands but it hasn't ever done anything for me. I got these and instantly felt supported and don't have burning feet anymore after work. Well worth the money and I'll be grabbing a bunch more now for every pair of my shoes. I'm a SOLE lover for life! PS. After having a baby these have helped my back from slouching and holding baby. No more pain!

Samantha Horan

BEST FLIPS EVER!!!!!!

I love my Costa flips! They're the most comfortable sandals I've ever worn. The support is amazing. As someone who is constantly on my feet running around these have helped my knees and back get back to normal where I don't need to see the Chiro as much. I had a figure skating injury when I was 15 to my lower back so I'm always in pain. The fit is great, the way it hugs my foot Is just right and love the mulberry color as it's my fave. I bought one pair and had to go back for 3 more!

Pamela Payne

Catalina Sport Flips

I have been wearing these flips for 10 years. I own 7 pairs, and have just ordered a pair of the Baja flips. I have a large bunion on my left foot so very limited what footwear I can wear. These flips are the most comfortable shoes of any kind I have ever worn. I can walk all day with no foot pain. I love my SOLE flips!

Longtime use

I have been using SOLE footbeds for almost as long as they have been in business, I believe. I had chronic Achilles tendonitis and plantar fasciitis. I had 2 prior foot surgeries for neuromas. I was on my feet all the time as a pediatrician and was miserable with pain especially in the morning and was limping at work. I was referred to an orthopedist who specialized in foot care. He referred me to an orthotics store where I was introduced to and purchased my first SOLE footbeds. I have used them for possibly 18 years now. I had tried custom orthotics prior which were too uncomfortable to wear. I discovered the SOLE website many years ago and buy as needed. I only have foot pain if I wear shoes without the footbeds. I walk my 10,000 steps per day and ballroom dance. I have recommended SOLE footbeds to friends and even to parents of my patients.

Arch support

About three years ago, I bought a new pair of walking shoes and SOLE insoles to give me the rigid arch support my podiatrist told me I needed to get rid of chronic foot pain. The pain stopped immediately, and wearing them every day, I continue to be pain-free.

Margaret Ann Belanger

walking without pain

SOLE flip flops are the only shoes I wear. This has been life changing for me. After healing from plantar fasciitis & achilles tendinitis & living with arthritis daily it's difficult to find sandals. I heard about SOLE flip flops & purchased a couple pairs. No matter what your issue is you will find a SOLE to fit your need. They feel like they were custom made for me. They look great with the cork & foam & in sunshine or rain they wear well.

Andrea

Love!

I bought these sandals after researching summer footwear for planter fasciitis. I was hesitant and thought I'd be spending my summer in my running shoes and custom orthodics, but these sandals are AMAZING! No foot pain at all. I haven't wore them outside yet, not until I can get another pair so I can have one for inside and one for outside. They fit true to size!

Brian Conley

Great product

Well a few weeks in, and I can't be happier with the purchase of these flip flops. I had some minor knee issues, and since I have been wearing these I have not felt that pain in my knee when I walk. So far I could not be happier with the SOLE brand, and plan to soon try some insoles. The fit is good, I am usually a size 8.5 went down to an 8 for these, the fit is perfect for the foot.

Angel Stevenson

I cant keep them off my feet!!!!!

I suffer from heel spur and plantar fasciitis. I was online searching for new work shoes restaurant grades slip resistant. When I came across these boots. A little skeptical at first but decided when I give them a try the price was right. I ordered these and two other shoes that popped up which I would write a review for later. I receive them in no time tried them on and they were OK decided to wear them to work to check out slip resistant . But wearing them all day I came home to my feet not hurting. So I tried the other pair on the similar to the boots a little more slip resistant but not slip resistant enough for restaurant work. I started wearing these out and about when I got a run errands when I'm walking the dog and stuff I'm walking I'm waking up to no pain or days that I wear these shoes versus the days that I wear my tennis shoes.This was one of the best purchases I've done this year she was and I would but I will buy more so shoes in the future. I have only use their insoles in the past and I could tell the difference at work we're not using them versus when using them but this is something with the shoes is totally different then the insoles I highly recommend buy more than one pair because you won't want to take them off. They are firm enough To support my weight, and to keep my arches up off the ground. SOLE did a wonderful job and I will be buying a couple pairs of sandals for the summer months.

Sara J Christon

The BEST sandals I've ever owned

These are the best sandals I've ever owned! They are so comfortable and support the arch of my feet so well it's incredible! I had plantar fasciitis and was in great pain prior to purchasing the sandals. After wearing them for about 7 to 10 days I had no pain at all and will always always have a pair of these in my shoe wardrobe. Thank you SOLE!

Good option for off size shoes

SOLE! has helped fix my back and knee problems . I do like how they can extend my day by taking away my pains. I work on my feet and it doesn't stop when I get home. I like the thin option for boots and fancy shoes I use as well. It can make that half size difference in shoes.

Linda Roussel

We love these

Both my husband and I have been wearing these for 6 months and love them. I was sufffering from plantar fasciitis and Morton's Neuroma and he has needed custom orthotics for years for foot pain. We both find the insoles comfortable, reduce pain and are light weight and easy to transfer between shoes. These are an economical way to get relief!

Stephen M Antonelli

great footwear.

Excellent shoe! I bought multiple pairs. Very comfortable, looks good and supportive. I use them at my work in recreation therapy all day walking around at an acute hospital rehab. I have high arches, narrow small feet size 9 for a 6 foot tall body. With wrong shoes or shoes that don't fit well I end up with lower back pain and cramps that radiate up my shoulders into my arms and fingers, triggering fibromyalgia. With good shoes like these I do not have any pain or inflamation. Thank you!

Tracey Hendle

Love them

I wear my sandals in the house right now because it's cold here in Ontario still. They are so comfortable and give me lots of support and relieve pain from my plantar fasciitis. I am looking forward to them becoming my go to sandals this summer

Saved my feet

I have bone spurs that become very painful when cycling for hours in stiff-soled cycling shoes. After trying all sorts of pads, shoes, and insoles, the SOLE insoles have been a lifesaver. Well, ok, a footsaver. I recently completed a 500 mile gravel bike race with very little foot discomfort and I give a lot of credit to these SOLE insoles. These thick soles work best in shoes that already run a little big.

Joseph Nemeth

I've got SOLE

Found my first of SOLE's at a orthopaedic shoe store about. 4 years ago. I had been suffering with Planter Fasciitis off and on for many years. I had previously purchased many different drugstore insoles over the years that had never seem to work. I've been pain free ever since I have been using them. They are very well made. I highly recommend them.

Best yet

I love the Active Wide Thick SOLE footbed. It comfortably fits my whole foot. I live with your products daily and over the past 10 or more years they are with me always. I keep a pair in each shoe I own and they work great in my dress shoes. They also work well in my jogging shoes (and all-in-between). I use to live with constant foot pain and worked with a few doctors and tried a number of products that I paid 10 times as much and more for. Then I tried your product and with the heat and custom fit feature I have never felt better. Thanks and have a great day.

Todd S McKinnon

Excellent Product

I love the SOLE inserts! I use these inserts in most of my footwear and they have been a tremendous help in solving my arch/heel pain that I experienced some 15 years ago. I love the variety of inserts which I use in the various foot wear I use. For comfort and fit, SOLE is a most excellent product!

Todd S McKinnon

Excellent Product

Most "flip flops" provide no arch support. SOLE has the Beach Fip that provides excellent arch support and foot pain relief. These Beach Flips are the perfect product that complements the SOLE shoe inserts that have cured my arch and heel pain!

Todd S McKinnon

Excellent Product

About 15 years ago I suffered from severe pain in my arches and heels. I found SOLE inserts that saved me. I tried several arch supports but the SOLE product helped me the most and can be found in most of my shoes. I love that SOLE has a variety of arch support inserts and I use them in my dress shoes, hiking boats and athletic shoes. Thanks SOLE for solving my foot/arch problem!

SOLE Met-pad is great for plantar faciatis

I've been using SOLE insoles for a couple of months. I had custom insole made about 8 years ago that made a huge difference for my plantar fasciitis (horrible pain to no pain). I've never found store-bought insoles that could match up as it's really hard to find insoles with met-pads. These insoles seem to do the trick, and seem to keep away the pain as effectively as my custom ones. I also like SOLE's flip flops (with met-pads). I can wear these for many hours of walking while I can't go 30min in a normal pair of flip flops without being in a lot of pain.

Best Flip Flop

I love my SOLE flips, I have about 7 pairs. I have inside flips I wear in the house instead of slippers as I need the orthotic support. I also have outside flips to wear out. This is my footwear of choice whenever I go out. The SOLE flips offer great support and stand up to a lot of wear. I do not experience any foot pain or heel pressure if I wear these. When I do wear bare feet or runners I do experience heel pain and sore feet.

For pain relief and proper biomechanical alignment.

I don't have flat feet but I was wearing a particular tennis shoes ( which I did not do a flex test on as I never had plantar fasciitis in my life and for having played 7 days a week of tennis for 40 years) in 2012 which I didn't realize was flexing in the middle of the arch. I then developed bilateral foot pains. I recognized the symptoms and I knew I had plantar fasciitis bilaterally. I did the flex test on the shoes and I found the cause. So I tried the SOLE Active Thick insoles in the shoes and the pain went away in about 3 weeks without doing any treatments. I now use the insoles in all the shoes I have. The one thing that is great about is the immediate noticeable change in the force generating capability of the muscles when wearing arch supports or insoles. Initially, one can get tested without wearing insoles in standing position with arms stretched out to sides (90 degrees of abduction of both shoulders), and applying a downward force around the elbow /arms. Let the testee resist. Then test again in the same position wearing the insoles and apply the same downward force. The testee and the tester should feel a difference. It should be stronger. This the reason why I recommend insoles not just to my patients who need arch supports but also for athletes who want better performance.

Another great flip!

I have been a sole customer for many years since I started having foot pain due to wearing flip flops that were flat. I usually purchase the sport flip, which I wear everywhere, but I wanted something a little different for the beach. These Costa flips are perfect. Very comfortable with support and looks great at the beach.

SOLE for the WIN

Great product. Really forms your feet well and helped my ankle pain a lot!

Top Notch

This SOLE product is my favourite, I spend a lot of time in boots and the thicker insert really helps support my arches and gives me additional mobility. These also will fit into tennis shoes, as long as they are not too tight fitting. The price is reasonable and I don't have to replace them too often. Would I buy them again? YES! I actually bought a pair for my father who has knee pain and these have helped greatly in stabilizing his foot and thus reducing knee pain. SOLE has a great products. Rich Hamm

Outstanding product

I have had several of the different SOLE products over about 4 years now, and I find the Active Thick to be an outstanding product. I have severe pronation and these inserts really help stabilize my food and decrease my knee pain, and they wear like iron. I don't have to replace them at a rapid pace, I really do love their product. Rich Hamm

Super comfortable and durable

I've used custom orthotics for years but the price of them is substantial. I began developing issues using my custom fits and the guy at the shoe store I frequent, suggested these. And I have to say, at nearly a quarter of the cost of custom orthotics, these saved my life. I work in a warehouse with concrete floor and it's brutal on the feet but these insoles in a pair of running shoes, are the most comfortable option I've ever had. I no longer have foot pain. I will definitely continue using these insoles. They are worth every penny.

Great product

I am very happy with this product. Able to walk without heel pain. Went to Disney world and had no foot pain.

Fits great, helps fatigue

Fits great in my dress shoes. Definitely helps the pain and fatigue of standing all day. Would buy again!

Cheryl-Lynn G

Best product hands down

My husband works long hours on his feet and in certain work footwear his feet and knees ached. I know someone who uses SOLE products and they recommended the Work Medium for my husband's work boots. And they worked! He has Zero pain or stiffness! We use SOLE in all our footwear now!

"Form" over "foam"

I've had my SOLE orthotic shoe inserts for about a month, and they are by far the best I have ever owned (I've tried sooo many). The typical insoles with cushion, memory foam, gel, etc. never relieved my pain (kinda like putting foam on a hammer, but still continuing to hit your foot with the foam-covered hammer). The SOLE inserts are different. They are not soft (I have the cork version). They are firm, but their shape restores my arches and puts my feet back into the form and shape they are supposed to be in. After just an hour of adjusting to them, I had significant relief of my plantar fasciitis, which no other insole was able to provide me. This brand is a bit pricey, but well worth it. I wish I hadn't wasted so much money on all the other insoles that didn't work before discovering SOLE.

Overweight/Post Hip Surgery Win!!

This product helps my flat feet! It decreased my pain after my hip replacement. I've been wearing this for a few months and I ONLY hurt when I DON'T wear them. As an overweight person I was concerned they wouldn't be for me, but I love them, they are great construction, support me well. I have wide feet, but these fit great. They fit good in my tennis shoes. They feel good on my feet, the top is a felt like material and very soft when I wear flats without socks. So comfortable, I plan on purchasing an active footbed and a pair of sandals for this summer!! Can't wait!!

Comfy

Too many years wearing flat flip flops and sandals has left my feet in pain. Theses flips are so comfortable on my soles. I did have to wear them just a few hours at a time to get used to them, but soooo much better than what I used to wear.

manager

After my knees and lower back hurt for weeks.I had tried to just buy new shoes and the uncomfortable pain was a little better but not gone. I finely bought a pair of SOLE inserts and my pain subsided and was gone. I will always buy the SOLE inserts from now on.

Mrs Michelle maras

Best flip/orthodic/sexy shoe ever

So here it is; 5 years ago I was introduced to these flips and insoles from my sister who claimed to have her uncomfortable foot spurs disappear from wearing them...and I was having back pain so I thought I'd give them a try since I had tried many things including actual orthodics.I feel as though they completely line up my body as I stand on them. Every part of my foot feels supported and it has a ripple effect all the way up my body...amazing! They look good too! I always buy two pairs to wear in the house as slippers as well as most everywhere else I go (except the gym) that's when I use the footbeds. Best ever!

Supreme comfort and support

My podiatrist recommended these to me and in fact sold me my first pair. At 290 lbs I'm not a little guy and I wear size 13/14 extra wide shoes. I have flat feet. These insoles solve many problems for me. They give me arch support and provide much needed cushioning. I don't consider them a luxury but a necessity for my health. I can tell when it's time for a new pair by the pain in my feet. Oh yeah, while they're working I'm walking pain free. I've tried other brands and nothing else comes close. These are the best. If this doesn't fix your feet, according to my podiatrist, the next step is custom made orthotics. This is the best product, best quality, most recommended foot sole support out there.

Carol Zuroske

No more planters!

I experience several different conditions that leave me with overall pain, especially in my feet. I also love sandals. These help me by aligning my feet, especially my arches that I can look great while helping my feet.

HERBERT YEN

Great to bring new life into older shoes

I found that a pair of boots I wear normally for work was causing some knee pain. I used these insoles and they feel so much better now that I can wear them daily!

Mark A Nechodom

Lightfoot

I confess I was a bit dubious when I tried these. The construction seemed a bit on the lean side. But I wanted to support the concept and the usage. So, I went for it. Turns out they are among the more stylish comfortable shoes in my quiver. I anticipated something along the lines of the famous Australian build. But they were not; they were better. I feel like I should be nicknamed "Lightfoot"when I wear them. I feel more nimble. Lighter on my feet. But solidly on the ground. They are almost not there. Except they really are, and my feet require support like many others' do not. Past injuries, orthotic adventures, knee pain, all conspire to require the right fit and float. These do all of that and more. Thanks for making me look... glad I did!

Ryan Sahli

Very comfortable

I found SOLE insoles on my search for Plantar fasciitis pain management about 15 years ago. I like the cushion you get while the pain is being managed. I heat mine in the oven and they end up fitting great. These are very comfortable and the material is much better than your regular insoles

Love this product

I had plantar fasciitis for 3 years. I had considered surgery because the pain was so intense. I bought SOLE footbeds at the recommendation of a foot/ankle orthopaedic surgeon. It was the best decision that I have made. They fit in my shoes perfectly and have relieved all of my pain. They are very durable and usually last me at least a year. I don't go a single day without wearing my SOLE inserts.

Ivan Rodrigues

Boots or Slippers?

I purchased a pair of Repels as an impulse buy and I have no regrets. I am currently using them as indoor slippers and around the house on the patio. As a chronic sufferer of lower back pain and plantar fasciitis, SOLE insoles have been a game changer and a life saver. I have no less than 15 pairs for all of my shoes, boots and even my slippers. I also have the sandals, flip flops, and Repel chukkas. All products are of great quality, I frequently recommend them to friends, co-workers, and even strangers while shopping. I just purchased a set of the 198 cork blocks ... a little yoga could only be good for my back! Thank you SOLE!

Best Insole

I bought these because I had been battling plantar fasciitis for about 18 months. I swing dance 2-3 times a week, sometimes on a vinyl floor that is on top of concrete. Since wearing these, my plantar fasciitis pain resolved. I put these in my dance, walking and hiking shoes. I have been recommending them to everyone that I meet with plantars fasciitis. I found out about them from a coworker who had plantar fasciitis. She went to her doctor who recommended them. Her doctor runs and had plantar fasciitis too but had good results from SOLE insoles.

Pleasantly surprised

I have had a lot of shoe inserts promise to relieve foot, ankle, knee, and hip pain. None ever delivered. It was a pleasant surprise to realize that after a few weeks of using the SOLE inserts, I was walking further and enjoying it more. I'd love to be able to get SOLE inserts for every pair of shoes that I own!

Jeffrey S Ammons

Used sole since active duty military

Over 14 years ago, I stumbled on SOLE footbeds while on active duty. I used them in my flight boots until retirement, and continue to use them in all my shoes. Deep heel cup and proper arch support make for a proper shoe. Don't be fooled by cushy alternatives, they don't work. Take it from me, I've had my share of back pain and even surgery. Haven't had problems since using SOLE.

Fantastic Inserts

The SOLE Active Thick Inserts are a fantastic product. I have a history of chondromalacia of the knees. That is a condition where the patella, also known as the kneecap, does not articulate properly with the tibial bone beneath it. The condition results in painful knees, With motion, exercise, sitting etc. These inserts made it possible for me to move again. I am also a physician that regularly sees patients with plantar fasciitis. I recommend these inserts frequently. I would say 90% success rate to those who utilize them. Excellent company and excellent products! Give the footbeds as well as the shoe wear a try. You won't be disappointed.

Insoles

I have 2 pairs of these and I switch them back and forth, depending what footwear I am wearing at the time. I love them and without them I have so much pain in my back and hips. I wish I could afford to buy a pair for all my footwear.

Thankful

I had a Norton's neuroma in my left foot & was in pain. I got these for my running shoes . I also wear the sole flip-flops indoors & these together have helped to the point I feel like it's gone.

Less fatigue and foot pain

I have been replacing my factory insoles with SOLE products for a couple years now. More recently I am using the versions with metatarsal support. These insoles allow me to work longer with less fatigue and foot pain. My oldest pair are just now cracking and showing their age, pretty good considering they are at least 3 years old.

Heel spurs.

SOLE orthotic/inserts are designed such that they alleviate my chronic, severe heel pain from heel spurs/plantar fasciitis when nothing else has worked. My podiatrist sold me my first pair 3 1/2 years ago. I have two pairs and use in all of my shoes and boots. I have SOLE slides, 4 pairs, for indoors and slides for outdoors in white and black. Going barefoot is not an option for me. Going without SOLE foot support is not a choice I make. I am so thankful for the quality, beautiful design and they last years.

Jean-Francois Gaudreau

Repeat customer

I can wear my Montereys all day long, same as any shoes that have my SOLE footbeds in them. They save me from a lot of knee and back pain. And the flips I wear them everyday from May to October and they last two summers. Couldn't be happier.

Great product for cycling shoes.

This is the second pair of thin soles I have purchased. I have nephropathy in my feet. I.e. painful for me to walk a lot. I used the first pair in my cycle shoes. They work great allowing me to ride much longer distances. The sole really spreads the load across the whole foot and removes the pressure points of the cleat on the peddle. I have moved the old ones to my boots and put the new ones in my new cycle shoes. Excellent product. I prefer them to my expensive custom orthodics.

Paul Harker

Now I can wear shoes I like!

Every pair of shoes I own have had SOLE inserts for the last two years. I have two problems with my feet - Morton's Neuroma and Plantar Fasciitis. I found some specialized shoes that greatly alleviated my foot pain, but they were not only bordering on hideous, but also tremendously expensive. Then I found SOLE inserts with Met pads. Now I can buy whatever shoe I want, and by the magic of SOLE, have the same level of pain relief I got from my plain (to speak kindly) and expensive specialty shoes. The fact that SOLE is made from recycled cork is icing on the environmental cake.

Great product!

These insoles have really helped support my foot in a way that I no longer have pain and reduced how often I need to attend physio. My physiotherapist recommended them to me and I have been happy with them since day 1!

RON KNOX

A sole with soul

I saw this insole with met pad and wondered if it was better for me than the regular SOLE insoles. I have tried thick and thin, active and performance over the years but not the met pad until now. I was a little unsure how a met pad would feel but I found out that it is comfortable for my flat feet. It is not too much different than the regular insole but provides a little extra support for the middle of the foot. If you are experiencing pain in that area the met pad is worth a try. It isn't big enough to hurt but is noticeable as a little support under the foot, a slightly different feel, just like having more arch support compared to flat insoles. For me the SOLE insoles work as well as a custom orthotic, and for the same cost of one custom orthotic I can put a SOLE insole in each pair of shoes I have.

Lynn Mader

Walking Again Pain Free

I went to the doctor with pain on the side of my foot that was diagnosed as tendinitis and advised to get SOLE inserts. Since we had an upcoming beach vacation I purchased these slides. I was amazed I could walk for hours without pain. Now that winter is here in MN, I use with slippers as house shoes. Thank You! Thank You!

Glad to be Back

Tried prescription orthodics for a couple of years after using SOLE footbeds, and my foot pain actually increased. Went back to the SOLE footbeds and glad I did. My foot pain will never go away but SOLE has made life more comfortable.

Excellent fit for my hockey skates!

I love my SOLE footbeds! I struggle with plantar fasciitis and so wearing my hockey skates has been a hard thing for me - to the point that I've gone winters without skating...until I put these footbeds into my skates. Total difference. Instead of needing to get my skates off after 5 minutes, I get to play and skate for hours without pain. SO GOOD!

Courtney C Armstrong

SO GOOD!

I love these footbeds. LOVE them! I struggle with plantar fasciitis and they have made a massive difference in my foot pain. They fit in my Blundstones perfectly. I would recommend them without hesitation.

Feet feel great

These work and feel great in my everyday cross trainers. The met pad is a great addition and is my new favorite SOLE insert. I've worn them for several weeks now and they've helped reduce my neuroma pain. I will be buying a couple more sets.

Anthony P Dimichele

Holds up

I am a rather large fella and these still hold up. I don't know what I would do without these as I have almost no arch and in the past had a lot of foot pain. Once I started using these, the pain went away. True to size and durable.

Howard K Pruden

Best flip flops ever!

Approximately 8 years ago I was diagnosed with plantars fasciitis. If you're not familiar with this injury I would compare it to walking on bruises, very painful and debilitating . I had expensive custom shoe inserts made which provided little relief. It wasn't until I purchased the SOLE flip flops that I could comfortably walk around. I wore the SOLEs inside and outside as they were the only footwear that provided any sense of comfort. I believe they helped in curing my plantar fasciitis which lasted about a year. Oh! did I mention I have worn those original SOLEs up until recently when I bought a new pair of Catalina flips? (Actually I still use the original to trek out to my hot tub). I would highly recommend the SOLE flips. Not only do they provide excellent comfort and good looks, they could be last flip flops you ever own based on their quality of construction.

Loved these

I need orthotics to prevent foot pain but wanted a sandal to wear while travelling in Ghana. Wore these all day, everyday and had no foot pain at all.... and looked good!

Christine S. Laberge

IN LOVE

I love these sandals. I live in SOLE sandals. The size 8 fits my foot perfectly. I no longer have any plantar fasciitis or heel spurs...it's amazing to live pain-free. Thanks SOLE!

Saved my feet

I was suffering from plantar fasciitis, very painful. Doctor recommended wearing orthotics. So I got a couple par of Sole orthotics..... and rest is history. Been wearing them ever since. Great product. Very comfortable. I highly recommend them.

Mark E Petre

Functional comfort

I bought these because they have the old last style. It's more bulky than their newer models with the leather uppers, but so comfortable immediately out of the box. I have worn SOLE casual cork flips for years and this is the same last and same sole, but for winter and rainy day use. I liked them so much I bought a second pair to keep in reserve since it appears these are discontinued. I recommend these to my patients with a wide range of forefoot pain because it is a very roomy toe box and the best combination of cushion and support. I hope they continue this combination of cork and last shape in some iteration moving forward.

Dean Grove

Helped with plantar fasciitis

I bought these specifically for an older relative who suffers from plantar fasciitis. They reported that the shoes eased the pain of walking. In general, they said the shoes are light, comfortable and sufficiently neutral in style to not attract attention (an important consideration). They found them wide for their size (8), which was remedied by wearing thicker socks. They had some difficulty at first using the tabs to pull the shoes on but eventually got used to it. Overall, they are pleased with the shoes and are considering adding SOLE insoles to some other shoes.

Lauren North

Great for pain relief

I've been wearing these footbeds for a couple of months now and they have relieved 90% of my pain. So comfortable and a perfect fit. Also it feels nice to know that they use recycled corks to make them.

Supportive and protective

I have had the SOLE brand insoles in my footwear since I purchased a pair of Redwing boots a few years ago. I discovered the amazing support needed for me was established from the inside not the outside. I did some research to find the SOLE brand was the real source of the insole. I purchased my first pair of active Soles about 6 months later for my sneakers and basically eliminated all of my foot pain. It doesn't matter how inexpensive the shoes are as long as I have my Soles to support my feet I am good to go. I have also recently discovered another important quality about SOLE; because of the thickness they have saved my foot on 2 occasions from a roofing nail. They both penetrated my shoes only to stop short of my foot because of the SOLE footbed. I would definitely recommend the purchase for every shoe you wear.

MICHELLE

Beyond love!

I have purchased 3 different pairs of Women's SOLE flip flops over the last year and they are fabulous for managing my Paroneal tendinitis and Achilles Tendinitis. I never suffer from pain when I wear them. Likewise, I just purchased a pair of Male sandals for my partner and he likes them as well. So I saw these shoes and thought why not!? Let's try it! And ....I absolutely LOVE them! Soooo comfortable yet professional. In fact, I'm considering buying a second pair in a different colour. SOLE never lets me down! Always a pleaser! :)

Zero Drop - SOLE Gets it Right

SOLE inserts were recommended by my orthopedist for flat feet. I bought these to fit Altra running shoes which are zero drop. I had tried other inserts but found out they were not zero drop and the increased heel height caused pain. No insert should add heel height. The Active Wide Medium fits well in the toe box. Since I wear a half size, I ordered the larger size footbed and trimmed it. Love my shoes with SOLE footbeds!

Insole Review

Love, love, love your insoles. I have been wearing them in my footwear for almost 20 years and cannot live without them. I didn't realize that my insoles were wearing down until one day I started having pain in my left foot. I went to see a foot specialist who recognized the issue. I came home and placed an order for 3 pair. My feet and I are happy again, thank you for creating such an amazing product.

Best thing happening to my feet!!!!

These soles have made a 100 % difference in my feet. I can be on my feet 10x longer than I could before with no foot pain!! They are phenomenal!!!

Kelly Ong

Pain relief

I have Plantar Fasciitis on my left heel/ foot recently, I experienced sharp heel pain & unbearable foot pain during the day. Recently, I chanced upon the SOLE Catalina Sport Flips & I bought them. Wearing these really made me feel the difference ever since.

Walking on a cloud

I love to hike. I started having a lot of foot pain so a friend recommended SOLE inserts. It is like walking on a cloud and my foot pain is gone! I highly recommend!

Shannon Harder

Best Flip Ever!

I can't say enough good things about the Del Mar Flip! My flat feet are very prone to Plantar Fasciitis, and I wear these supportive flips all day every day with no pain!

Kaitlyn storton

100% comfort

I have been having pain with plantar fasciitis for the last few years and these sandals are the only thing that keep the pain away. They are so comfy and are now my new gold sandals! Amazing product, I have about 5 different pairs!

Michelle Petker-Lawrie

Love!!!!

After wearing inexpensive flip flops for many years, my Chiropodist recommended I search the SOLE website after battling for the last couple years with achilles tendonitis and side foot pain. I have a flat foot and have battled with shin splints as well for years. I visited your website and purchased 2 pairs of flip flops - Baja and Laguna. I loved them both...especially the Laguna pair. I no longer have the pain on the side of my foot or my achilles pain now that I wear these daily. It provides the support I need and gives me the arch in my foot that I have needed all this time. In fact I just recently purchased another 2 pairs of your sport flip flops and love them as well. In fact, I wear them everywhere I go now. I am a highly satisfied customer and have promoted this product to friends as well. :) I will continue to search the site for upcoming new products.

Love Them!

These have been the best thing that I have done for my feet pain. They have changed the way I live my day! Thanks SOLE!

Excellent support

I have Two Active medium inserts and an Active Thin along with Sole Catalina flip flops. My very painful planters fasciitis is calmed when wearing Sole. The inserts fit so well! Thank you

Tim Simmons

Great product

Once again my footbeds from SOLE are killing it. Great support, easy to mold and no more knee pain! Thanks SOLE!

Mark Van Valkenburgh

Greater comfort

I find the extra cushion and shock absorption reduces my pain in feet and calf. I am able to go longer and farther with them, and the repurposed cork appeals to me as well.

Best insoles ever

Have been using these for a long time. Eliminates my hip & knee joint pain. Use them in every pair of shoes

Diana Sullivan

Love Love my SOLE Sandals

I absolutely love my SOLE products. I have Plantar Fasciitis and have a hard time finding any shoes other than custom orthotics that won't make my foot hurt. My SOLE sandals are so comfortable and I have no pain while I wear them and they last year after year.

Nikki

Love these!

I've been wearing several of SOLE flips for over 5 years now. I can't say enough good things! I live in Florida so flip are a year-round thing for us and I have 4-6 pairs at any given time. These are the only brand that truly release the pain from my plantar fasciitis and keep it away. I like the cork base, they are a little softer on my feet for long wear and my hubby likes that they absorb a bit of sweat for him. I love their inserts too!

Heel Pain Solved

Ordered these inserts to help with my heel pain due to plantar fasciitis. Wanted to be able to wear multiple pairs of tennis shoes without having to transfer my orthotics each time I chose a different pair of shoes. These are great!!

Melissa Daugherty

My favorite flip flops!

I have high arches and typically can not wear flip flops for long. The SOLE Costa flips have enough arch support that I can wear them all day without foot pain. Love them!

Shawn Stanyar

Life Saver

As a longtime customer, I purchased 2 pairs of flips this time as my well worn ones I've had for 8-10 years are relegated to the backyard patio and pool. The Sport Flips (as usual) are extremely comfortable to wear right out of the package, and can be worn all day. The Casual Cork flips are a bit uncomfortable as my low arch tends to dig into the hard cork with little give, but I'm sure this is only temporary as they break-in. On a positive note I'm sure they will keep their shape a bit longer and support my foot better...plus they look amazing. Unrelated to this recent purchase, I also use a variety of the footbeds, and although I'm not an avid runner, I'm on my feet all day and could not imagine how much pain and fatigue I'd be in without using SOLE products.

Trent Cummings

Top-quality insoles!

I've been wearing my new SOLE insoles for a few weeks now and I'm really enjoying them. They've all but eliminated much of the pain I experience as an individual with flat feet and they fit in a variety of the shoes I own (professional and leisure styles). Definitely looking like I'll be a repeat customer!

Randy Froese

My SOLE Flips!

I'm a 56 year old male. 6'-6" weighing 250 lbs. I bought two pairs of Sport Flips in different colors and a pair of Beach Flips. I love them all! They provide great support for my feet. I like to go for walks on hot summer nights and my feet are no longer tired after walks! Morning foot pain is reduced substantially (or pretty much GONE) after having walked the night before. That's new for me. I also love my Sport Flips for cycling on hot days. I love my Beach Flips for use at the beach, both in and out of the water. They provide protection for my feet from the rocks and quickly float to the surface when I kick them off. To top it off, I need size 14 which SOLE has. Can't find them just anywhere! I am so thankful for my new flips!!! I use one of the pairs in my apartment as recommended by my certified Pedorthist. I design for a living in a manufacturing facility and am a details person. I always appreciate good design in anything. Please thank your designers for their great work on these flips! Thank you SOLE! You make great products and have a great website! P.S. - Love the free shipping over $100!! P.P.S. - Amazing 90 day footbed guarantee allowing you to return for any reason if not satisfied (which I will not be doing)!!!!!

Healthy Solution

I have been using SOLE inserts for many years and recommend them to anyone I know or meet who is having foot or knee issues. I purchased the thins for a new pair of low hikers that do not have the room for a midweight. The reason I call these a healthy solution as I have a knee that used to give me a lot of pain when I was hiking, jogging or walking. A friend recommended trying the SOLE insert, problem solved. Since that first pair of inserts, I now use the SOLE insert in all my footwear and also find the SOLE sandals equally effective.

Joanne Bonney

Great shoes!

I was suffering with heel pain so I purchased these shoes and after wearing them for 1 day my heel feels so much better. The shoes fit a little tighter when I first put them on but they did stretch out and are the perfect fit now! I love that I don't have to work to keep them on my feet. These shoes were so great I bought another pair (Balboa Flip). I definitely recommend these shoes!

Yako

Best investment

My friend recommended me SOLE insoles after I spent lots of money with my podiatrist doctor . First days were a little painful but after a week no more foot pain . I was little scared about cork material but my insoles still good after 1 year used .

No more pain!!!

After wearing SOLE Active Thick my foot pain is nonexistent. I have a pair on all my shoes and now I can't live without my SOLEs.

Julia

The Best!

These insoles are totally worth every penny! They took care of my foot pain! So very thankful that I found this company.

Helps with pronation

I was experiencing knee pain after walking. After I started using the SOLE footbeds in my runners, I no longer have knee pain.

Denise

great!

I have a pair of these in all my shoes and boots! I love, love, love them! They have completely eliminated my plantar fasciitis pain! I recommend to everybody!

I could walk again

I was running on the beach playing frisbee when all of a sudden I couldn't walk on my left foot and had excruciating pain. I had to hobble around on my tippy toes. After going to the Orthopedic, he recommended that the first thing I should do is get SOLE inserts made for plantar fasciitis. I went online to look and there were so many options, I was a bit confused. I called Sasha on the service desk and she quickly advised me on the proper insert. I told her I would be leaving town before I would receive them. She quickly guided me to a local dealer, where I went right down and picked up a couple of pairs. Medium and Thin. Let me tell you, I put them in my sport shoe and it was like a miracle, I could walk on my whole foot again with most of my pain was gone instantly. Since I spend most of my time in flip flops I had to get them too. They offer a lot of support and feel great. Thanks for being there for me. Your products made a real difference in my life.

Christine

Awesome!

I have been wearing SOLE flips for 5+ years. I had plantar fasciitis and was in constant pain, but not since wearing these flip flops. I also have the inserts for my work shoes and sneakers. Won't wear shoes without them! I can stand for 8+ hours in comfort.

Sara Buffel

Adorable sport flip

I ordered two Catalina Sport Flip, one for indoor and another for outdoor. They look so cute and fit so comfortable. I can be on my feet the whole day. They are truly Anti-Odor which it was very important to me since my feet sweat a lot, the footbed is perfect because it absorbs moisture. The Met Pad Support is so soft and gentle, it reduced plantar fasciitis symptoms. I am very satisfied with this flips because walking around is no longer painful or tiring for my feet and I get compliments for the look.

Hiking Boot Comfort

These make my feet so much happier on my long treks - I have high arches and occasional pain when wearing my stiff mountaineering boots on long steep days so these insoles have made a world of difference!

Love these foot beds!

My physical therapist recommended these to me years ago. I have a chronic pain due to an ankle sprain, that didn't seem to be getting better. I've had a much easier time improving my ankle strength wearing these. I have had them in my walking and hiking shoes for nearly 9 years now. Wearing SOLE footbeds provides comfort and stability. I highly recommend!

Finally, a shoe insert that works!

Tried numerous shoe inserts to resolve my foot pain. Found Sole shoe inserts during a Google search. Researched the product and ordered one pair. Sole insert worked for me and helped rid my foot pain. I ordered 3 more pairs for my different shoes. When my daughters had foot pain issues from soccer I ordered both girls Sole inserts. Both girls are pain free. I ended up ordering the Sole slip on sandals and strap on sandals for days I don't want to wear socks but still have my arch and ankle support. No issues with the Sole inserts to date. Have been using them for many years. I don't heat my inserts I just put them into my shoe and over a short period of time they form to my foot.

Best insoles for flat feet or fallen arch

These are the best insoles if you have flat feet or fallen arch support. I have tried many brands but only these gave me relief from my pain. I have three sets of insoles and flipflops too.

Walking on Clouds

I love sole! Before using these I experienced back pain everyday. Now I'm feeling like a spring chicken cause of sole.

No more plantar fasciitis pain

For years I have dealt with plantar fasciitis. More recently it had become debilitating and I gave up my daily walk. My job, however, required standing for long periods. I would find myself hobbling to my car after work. I tried many remedies and some helped relieve the pain but it wasn't until I discovered SOLE that my pain went away. Within a week, I knew that I had to get a pair for all my regular shoes. I even bought a pair of Sole flip flops that I could wear around the house so my feet would always have support. It has made a world of difference. Thank you SOLE!

Hayley Thiessen

Game changer!

I am here to tell you that after years of painful feet and shins the SOLE insole that I purchased has literally changed my life. I can participate in my daily walks, hikes with friends, and badminton whenever I get the chance. Thank you SOLE for making quality insoles at affordable prices!

Insoles

I wear these insoles and bought some for my daughter as she probates in her shoes. They have changed her life! I put them in her runners as well as her cleats for soccer and her knee pain etc has completely stopped. Love these!!

Lonny Smith

I have a BUNCH of Sole and Love Them All

I started wearing and using SOLE products in 2011. My first purchases were insoles and a pair of Sport Flips, then every year or so I purchase some more insoles. I have also purchased a pair of Exhale shoes that I still wear to this date. I turned my wife on to SOLE a few years back and she wore out a pair of the Cork Flips, she also wears the insoles. So here's the deal. I have extreme over pronation of one foot. SOLE products allowed me to survive 4 years without surgery. I had corrective surgery, terrible, terrible surgery for PTTD. It was brutal. My foot is somewhat better but still painful. SOLE products continue to provide the support that I need to continue living an active life. I would not be without my SOLE footwear or insoles. As I write this I have a pair of Sport Slips from 2013 (that are just about wore out) that I am wearing, and in a bit when I put my hiking boots on my feet will sit on some SOLES. Really, if you want great support and comfort, buy some SOLE products. I am a believer, my wife is a believer, and anyone that asks us gets a strong testimonial from us.

Christine Rutledge

Amazing

These are beyond amazing! Sole flips allow me to walk again without pain in my hips, knees, or feet! They have changed my life! I now have two pairs for inside and three pairs for outside. I will continue to purchase SOLE products. I cannot wait for the boots!

Relief

Post boot from my plantar fasciitis issue, these inserts allowed me to resume my outdoor activities with no pain. I now use SOLE inserts in all my footwear.

Kathy Albee

Womens Sport Flips

Have had three pairs of womens Sport Flips - one pair was worn out, one got ate by a labradoodle puppy and I am still wearing the third. I wear these constantly due to a major foot injury. No pain and mobility! Recommend them to anyone with foot/feet issues.

W2W

After having pain in my feet from walking, these have given me comfort and relief

Tania

Love this footwear!

I love being barefoot, but a recent case of plantar faciitis has prevented me from doing so. These flip flops are so comfortable and the closest thing to barefoot while still wearing supportive footwear! These along with using the footbeds in my closed toe footwear have been pinnacle in healing my plantar faciitis and keeping me pain-free.

Tracy Broder

Excellent

Love these flip flops. Started buying the insoles due to foot pain and I now have very happy feet. Super awesome that you can get these great flip flops for summer. They really help as I have a very high arch and no other flip flop or insole would work. Highly recommend!!!!

Fred Rossomando

Excellent!

These inserts are terrific! They fit perfectly and they have reduced my foot pain for almost 1 year now. They were endorsed by my physical rehab person.

Meghan

Extreme Comfort

I ordered the Lifestyle Medium to put into my casual sneakers that lack comfort and support. The SOLE inserts fit perfectly into my sneakers and allowed me to walk around all day without having the usual knee and foot pain I normally would have.

Diana

Great

Love these, felt strange at first but felt great in no time. Will definitely get another pair, probably will try the cork ones. Seem to fit my foot to a tee. No pain like in flat flip flops.

Donna Beattie

Long time fan

I've been wearing your SOLE shoes for about 10 years and have at least a dozen pairs. I have unbearable foot pain from metatarsalgia and only a metatarsal arch relieves it. Many thanks!

Love!

I live my footbeds. I have two pairs for myself and got my husband a pair. It has made such a difference in my back pain and knee pain! I have a pair of the Thin ones for my dress shoes and again such an amazing difference. I purchased the Laguna cork flip flops as a mother's day gift and I must say they are not holding up like I though they would have. The cork foot beds are cracking in several places and they are not just barely three months old.

SOLE insole

I walked around for years with chronic foot pain, I had bought medical orthotics and wanted to have foot comfort for all my shoes. I found sole footbeds, tried them, now I have them in all my shoes, even bought the flip flops and my feet feel great! No more doctor visits. I have recommended them to all my friends and family.

Joseph Castronovo

Orthotics

Hands down SOLE makes the best inserts. I have been using them for years. In my late 20s I had horrible foot pain. I went to doctors and physical therapy but nothing helped until one of the physical therapist recommended to try these inserts. I tried them out and within a couple of weeks the planter fasciitis was gone and the pain was gone. I have been wearing them in every pair of shoes and sneakers since.

I can walk again!

I need a footbed in most shoes to be able to walk due to a hip problem. The SOLE Active Thin footbed is the perfect addition to my shoes providing enough support for miles of pain free walking. Can't be without them!

Chris Lemke

The best!!!

I started using SOLE a couple months ago after coming back from injury and also suffering from Plantar Fasciitis. This product has enabled me to resume training and properly manage my PF pain on a daily basis. Without these insoles I would definitely NOT be running and probably not walking very well either. Thanks SOLE much!!!!

Lana

Great foot beds / insoles

It's been almost 3 years since I initially bought SOLE footwear and footbeds. I had painful plantar fasciitis and was referred to this company by a relative. Although I did not experience immediate results, over time between SOLE and good footwear, my foot pain has gone away. I definitely recommend SOLE and especially the footbeds. Thanks SOLE!!!

A happy runner once again!

I was bothered by bad plantar fasciitis for more than a year and was unable to run regularly due to the pain. I had to force myself to rest for a period of time before running again and the pain would come back after I resume my running. I saw my favourite runner - Dean Karnazes was advertising for Sole footbeds and started to do research on it and found out that they may help me to treat my plantar fasciitis. I bought a pair of the thickest version and used them on my running shoes. True enough, I was able to run pain-free. I was so amazed. I have been running every single day now and I am no longer being bothered by PF. They are life-changing. I am able to enjoy running again!!!

amy havranek

Highly Recommend

I just wanted to share my amazing experience w/ sole insoles. I have had plantar fasciitis for 10 yrs. My old podiatrist retired 5 years ago. Each year I keep getting custom made orthos and each year they are made wrong. I have been suffering and relying on steroids. My feet got worse and then I developed achilles tendonitis & extensor tendonitis. Even my gastrocnemius muscle started to spasm. I went back to another foot dr & and did 3 months of PT and the new custom made ones hurt even more. I could barely stand in the shower or make it through the grocery store. Then I bought SOLE, it was instant heaven. I know have 3 pairs. I started 2 weeks ago but I am 98% percent pain free while wearing them. I'm sure it will take more time to fully recover. I am in love with SOLE and cannot live without them. THANK YOU

Saved my ski touring trip!

While training for a ski touring trip I developed a freak case of what I believe was metatarsalgia- literally 2 weekends before my trip- which caused me such pain while skinning up hill I thought I might have to cancel the trip to the Tetons. I happened upon these insoles at REI 3 days before flying out. I molded them at home, skied on piste for a day then toured for 2 days with about 6k feet of climbing and zero pain! I even did a tour at home today. Feet are in great shape! I have low volume/ high arch and narrow feet.

Life changing

All my life I have had high arches and only just got diagnosed with the condition within the last year. I am 35, so as you can guess I have dealt with pain with walking/standing most of my life. SOLE's footbeds were recommend to me from a local running shoe store. The instant I tried them on, they corrected the alignment in my feet and it was instantly like walking on a cloud. Thanks again for your product. It has made a world of difference in my life!

say goodbye to foot pain

Best insoles I have ever worn. I had horrible plantar fascia and shin splint pain and now it is completely gone. Thank you, SOLE!

Rachel

LOVE MY NEW RECYCLED CORK FLIPS!

Just got back from a week in Mexico with my new flips and I have to say I love them! Wore them everywhere I went. They immediately took away the pain from the plantar fasciitis in my right foot caused from other flat sandals. I am really digging the new sleek look too. And the recycled cork story is so cool! I'll drink to that. Love love love. Highly recommend.

So far, so good

Recently was sidelined from running for two months due to a stress injury in metatarsal. Doc recommended these. First run back was today, and with no pain. You can actually feel the transfer of weight being dispersed throughout the foot, rather than just certain areas. Took a ton off of the pads of my feet. Heavy things, but man do they help with the pounding that feet take from NYC pavement.

Gorger Leone

Got me running again

I developed a nasty case of Plantar Fasciitis. I was hobbling around until a friend recommended SOLE footbeds to me. I found a store nearby and was walking pain free in a few days and running in a couple of weeks. I have a pair for every shoe. I tried Custom made insoles and they were clumsy and painful. SOLE insoles felt natural and got me running again.

FLORENCE SANFOURCHE

Made my running comfortable

As an active runner, I was suffering plantar fascitis since several months and my orthopedic soles hadn't been of a great help so far. When I first tried Sole footbeds, I had the big surprise to have my plantar pain reduced and although this pain hasn't disappeared yet completely (I only have footbeds in my running shoes and I wear high heels the rest of the time :-(((, these footbeds made my running much more enjoyable. I'm now purchasing my second pair as I consider the first pair may be "used" by now and may not be giving the same efficiency as it did (I run about 200 kms per month).

Awesome footbeds

Moving to New York, I became a public transit commuter walking 4-5 miles every day, not always with the best kind of shoes. Unfortunately, I developed a foot neuroma and a podiatrist recommended custom orthotics. I found these foot beds and decided to try them first. After a very short time, my neuroma resolved and I now walk without pain. After a year of daily use, it is time to replace my original pair. Thank you for such an awesome product.

Just like my 400 dollar orthotics

I have PF bought so many orthodics and none helped. Went to foot surgeon and got custom orthodics. These sole insoles looked just like my 400 dollars ones so i tried them. They feel the same and my foot pain is under control.

Jill

Best ever

These are by far the best insoles I've ever purchased! I have been dealing with plantar fasciitis and these mold to my feet exactly where I need the support! They are even better than my custom made orthotics!

Good support, I wish there was more cushioning in the heel!

I've suffered from plantar fasciitis & a heel spur for years & just had surgery on one foot for it. I've worn these insoles for several years as well as supportive Brooks shoes. Soles are recommended by my doctor & offer the best support but are not cushioned enough in the heels for me! I still have heel pain when wearing them. I wish they had a style with extra cushioning in the heels. At this point I'm searching for a more cushioned alternative, but having difficulty finding one. May try the Vionic insoles next to see how they compare.

Life Changing

I suffer from foot pain and these are the only orthotics or inserts that have ever helped. Without them I could not do my job which requires many hours hiking with a full back pack. It is a miracle to be mostly pain free! Worth every single penny.

Carmen Sanders

Foot pain

I have been wearing SOLE insoles, blister socks, and flips for years. Navigate sandals are lightweight and super comfortable I can stay on my feet all day. The best products for my feet and awesome customer service! Thank you SOLE

Shayne

Best for plantar issues

I found these by accident a year ago and they are fantastic. If you have plantar issues and like wearing flip flops, these are for you. Worth the price. When I received my first pair and walked around the house I was laughing out loud because they felt so good. My wife thought I had finally cracked and went crazy. That is how good they feel. Thank you SOLE for making these flip flops so I can continue to wear flip flops pain free.

Anne

Relief

I have planters, heel spurs, aquinis ankles, arthritis and arch problems. I have tried lots of different brands some help for a while but eventually the pain returns. However I discovered the Sole Sport Slides in 2011 and have been buying and wearing them ever since. I can wear for an entire day and have no pain. I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are fantastic!

HAPPY FEET - Best Sandals for Foot/Back

BEST SANDALS EVER! SERIOUSLY! I have had two foot surgeries which caused me back pain due to posture instabilities so wearing supportive shoes/sandals is VERY important to me. These sandals were recommended and now these sandals go everywhere with me! They offer the perfect amount of support and help to ensure proper alignment of your foot and back. You can wear them comfortably for hours and hours of walking. Will tell anyone who has back or foot issues who will listen to me how great they are! The customer care team is lovely, super responsive and stand behind their products. Can't recommend enough how great these sandals are. So happy I was able to find them. You won't regret one bit purchasing them.

Neil Gallaway

Trail ready!

The Signature DK response are perfect for my trail shoes. No heel pain and just the right amount of cushion.

Neil Gallaway

I can run again!

Unable to enjoy running for two years due to heel pain. Different doctors, different orthotics no difference. I now have Signature EV Ultra in my runners and have trained for a few months. No more heel pain! Getting ready for the 30K race Around the Bay! Thank you Sole.

Neil Gallaway

Working Soles

My new work boots made my heel pain flare up. So I replaced the custom orthotics with Softec Ultra and the pain is gone!

Great support for crossfit / workout shoes

I put these insoles in my shoes after having great success with the Signature EV Ultra insoles. These insoles can be trimmed down to fit in just about any shoe you would want to put them in, I specifically use them in my gym/workout shoes. They provide plenty of arch support for heavy lifting and just enough cushion to prevent pain but also give you a good feel for what your stepping or jumping on. These definitely won't turn an old pair of running shoes in to a new pair, nor will they allow you to run long distances in shoes that weren't designed for running but they allow me to run a mile here or there and do crossfit style workouts with no problems. I personally wouldn't log long miles running in these since the cushion is on the slim side compared to other options from Sole but others might find them adequate. 5 stars for crossfit use.

Mcb345

Fantastic quality - useable in all sorts of boots/shoes

I needed an insole with great support and enough warmth to climb up 14,000ft to the top of Mount Rainier. In comparing to other products (Superfeet included) I could tell these were made for durability and would provide greater support. The Superfeet also did not match up with my arch and were very painful. These were fantastic, molded to my foot a little bit and still 2.5 years later are still providing me support in my casual everyday shoes (so yes, they do work in medium volume shoes!). If you need extreme warmth, you might want the insulated products from SOLE. I was standing on a glacier for 3 days so I could tell they soles were getting a little cool from my frozen plastic mountaineering boot, but overall, these are fantastic for skiing, moderately cold mountaineering and anything else (such as everyday wear). They will last you years and years of continued abuse.

Stephanie Thiess

Best arch support ever

I found these from a review on Amazon about my normal Orthaheel shoes. The reviewer felt these were much better, which sounded hard to believe to me. So I was shocked when I tried these on to learn that they ARE better than any shoe I've ever tried. (A lot!) these are better than orthaheel because not only do they have perfect arch support but they allow for that natural place under the toes that also needs support, the heel bed is deep enough to support proper ankle position also. An old ankle injury and severe plantar fasciitis is getting amazing relief since wearing these shoes. I love them and I bought 4 (don't judge me ;) foot pain relief is no joke!) I have 1 pair for outside shoes, 1 pair for inside shoes (we don't wear outside shoes in the house) and an extra backup for each in case these get discontinued like happens sometimes. Brilliant design!

Byron Baker

Sole is great

I have several Sole Footbeds and now the Navigate. A couple of years ago, I was limping around in Hawaii on a work trip and saw some Marines buying Footbeds in the exchange at Camp Smith. I asked one of them what they were and he said. "They're SOLEs and we all put them in our boots." So, I bought a pair, then later another pair, and then later more. Now I have them in all my shoes. My plantar fasciitis subsided fairly quickly. I'm a happy camper and recently completed a hike in the Grand Canyon of over 40 miles in a couple of days with no pain.

Geoffrey Iles

Great plantar faciitis relief:

I have planter faciitis and have used inserts with the jelly soft spot under the heel coupled with an arch support but they were not nearly aggressive enough. I looked at "Your soles" insert and liked the aggressive arch, tried them and immediately felt relief from the pain even though they lack the jell at the heel. My plantar faciitis improves each day I wear them. My only fear is that they may be accommodating my foot too well lessening the plantar fascia relief. Should I have done the oven treatment only, to preserve their original shape? I am seriously thinking of purchasing the sandals, just wish they had a model with more toe protection!

Michelle Giguere

Best. Flipflop. Ever!

I suffer from debilitating plantar fascia pain, can't go for a walk or ever walk barefoot around the house. No other flip flop ever fit. Not only are these comfortable, they have reduced my pain to near zero! I can go for walks and I wear them all day and my feet don't hurt. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!! (please don't ever stop making these!)

Megan Bass

Like walking on clouds

I have been dealing with plantar fasciitis for years and after a week of wearing these I am in love and can walk pain free.. will definitely invest in more. Would love to have more colors in the size 11...

leann Mcintyre

A MUST FOR PLANTAR FASCIITIS

Omg where have you been! I never leave reviews but for these it was a must. I have a very high arch and have been suffering with heel pain due to plantars fasciitis. I have tried everything. When you are in so much pain you will pay anything for relief. These are a must. I got them this morning did the heat molding and wore them most of the day. It's like a miracle, pain gone after 1 day. I will definitely get another pair or 2. I am going to try the flip flops next.

Carol Pascuzzi

Heaven!

I've had problems with my feet since my motorcycle accident 7 years ago and I have tried a dozen other brands of shoes and sandals for my chronically painful feet and legs. I just received my first pair of these Sole slides and it was love at first try. Not only are they comfortable, my feet as though they are positioned properly. I am NOT taking these off. Ever!

Josh

On my 3 pair of DK Response Soles... Happy Feet!

I have raced in over 14 triathlons including a Half Ironman. These Signature DK Response footbeds solved my moderate pronation and arch pain during running (my knees no longer rub together). Amazing product and they truly deliver strong results mile after mile. I own 3 pairs since 2008, they will last several seasons. I still use my first pair in my dancing shoes, very durable. I give this product 5 stars out of Five. Make the best fitness decision and buy these now! Your feet will thank you!

Alastair

the awesome products

I bought this product at Marks and they are amazing! I use to get back pain, also sore feet and these totally took my pain away. I really recommend this if you work on your feet or if you wear steel toe boots. I would say a really good buy for the price.

John Russell

A Lifesaver

I love summer, except for one thing - I'd miss my SOLE footbeds because I was basically living in flip flops...and suffering from lower back pain because of it. Not anymore! Everything I love about the footbeds but in a flip flop. They need a short break-in period but once they did, I love them. Great product.

John Russell

Just the best

I have extremely flat feet and pronation, which causes foot pain, knee pain and especially lower back pain. I found SOLE about 5 years ago and have remained a loyal customer because I DON'T LIVE IN PAIN ANYMORE! I simply will not put shoes on my feet without a pair of these footbeds in them. Everything I own - dressy wingtips, casual boat shoes, sneakers, golf shoes, hiking boots, winter boots - all have a pair of SOLEs in them! I even bought their flip flops, which have been a summer time Godsend.

Jahangir J.

SOLE changed my life!

I'm so happy with the purchase. SOLE SIMPLY changed my life !!! I spent hundreds of dollars on orthotics , none worked out for me and they were waste money. I was suffering from plantar fasciitis for couple of months, running and doing exercises were becoming difficult and painful. After purchasing your products, I'm hitting the gym and trails everyday and I don't feel any pain in my feet. Thank you for designing such an awesome product !

Denise

Great!

I bought these sandals a few months ago to help with my plantar faciitis and they are great. I have since bought 2 pairs footbeds as well. For my work shoes and winter boots. I plan on buying more. They relieve the pain and if I don't wear them for even a few hours walking barefoot, I notice when I put them on again.I wear the sandals as slippers around the house. I recommend SOLE to everyone. I love them!!

Heel pain gone away!

Walked into an outdoor hiking and camping store with my son-in law and I found these little gems. I was experiencing heel pain for some time and knew it was likely my new shoes. Popped these heat-mouldable babies in and felt better right away. A few weeks later, the pain was all gone. Of course I tried all the other insoles one finds at the drug store and none did the job. I've worn these everyday for a year and I'll happily buy another pair of these fantastic insoles when they finally wear out. Wonderful product for sport and everyday walking.

Ron

Softec Ultra

I have been fighting back pain since I broke my back a year ago April. A month ago I came down with plantar fascia strain which I have had 4 times in the last 10 years. The last two weeks I could hardly walk without excruciating pain. A week ago I had an appointment with my dermatologist and the subject of plantar fascia strain came up and he told me about your site. He tried to explain what the insole was and suddenly he took off his shoe and handed me one. How many doctors today would do that? I ordered a pair of your mens softec ultra and they arrived in 2 days. I tore out the insole of a pair of running shoes and they fit perfectly. I tried on the shoes and I have not had one bit of pain from my plantar fascia strain. Before I was wearing a gel cup for the heel given to me by an orthopaedic foot surgeon. Your product is every thing it claims, I have recommended your products to friends and my on call nurse.

Awesome!

Thin Sport Footbeds solved my foot pain and I didn't need to get orthotics. I don't even notice them in my sneakers and it's the first time ever my arches feel fully supported.

manny

Foot pains

I have normal arches in both feet but I developed bilateral plantar fasciitis in late 2012 due to the use of a pair of work shoes which did not flex in the metatarsophalangeal area. I decided to give these SOLE Softec Ultra Footbeds a try. I felt some pain relief on the third day. Pains were completely relieved after 3 months of use. I now use these insoles in my work shoes, tennis shoes and running shoes. I do not go out without them even after I have been pain free for almost 2 years. I have 6 pairs of the Softec Ultras. I have been recommending them to my patients.

Brian Grange

The best

I don't usually do reviews but think this is worthwhile. About 6 years ago I suffered Plantar Fasciitis in both feet. This was cured by custom orthotics at a cost of 300. However I have battled this condition and mild knee pain throughout which never went away fully. As the custom orthotics wore out I tried SOLE Softec Ultras. I have worn them without doing the heating process and can say coupled with daily stretching my knees and feet are great. I am running 3/4 times a week and wear military boots for a living. I can only say I wish I had tried them earlier. They take about a week to wear in but after that fantastic. Excellent product and customer support.

Ian Thornton

Thank you!

Thank you. Your soles have corrected my plantar fasciitis, therefore my knees and my back. I am a 46 year-old full-time father of a two and one year old. I've just run a half marathon and can pick up my two young children and dance them to sleep. My children are happy because I am mobile and they have my full attention. I run six days a week with no pain. I have lost thirty pounds, and because I can run, I can write. I'm an English novelist living in Toronto and running/walking is how and where I get my ideas. Your soles might have saved my life. Thank you.

Cheryl Phillips

Hello my favorite SOLE people!

I was SO EXCITED to see that you made these, have been waiting and watching for something new exactly like this! I didn’t know you were making these in color so I purchases a “raven” pair a month ago and WOW.....are they ever fantastic, I never got one blister at all, which is amazing to me! I want to commend you on the quality and feel of these sandals, I do not get any plantar faschia pain when I wear my sandals and orthotic lifts, yours are the only design that help my feet, I’ve tried other orthotics and they are not as good as your brand. My plantar fashia pain is so bad that I need to wear your orthotics all the time, even at home in my slippers. THANK YOU from the bottom of my feet, I appreciate your products so very much!

Thank you

Thank you Sole. This spring I dislocated my ankle and broke my leg. When the cast finally came off I found that I had developed severe pain in the bottom of my heal. The only shoes that I could wear were my Sole sign and my sport flip flops. I can't say thank you enough. Thank you Sole

Brian M Smith

best possible option

I bought these at the local Army Post Exchange here at Ft Benning, GA. After years of looking for quality inserts for my combat boots, I finally found these, and I will never go back to any other alternative. Now I can walk, run and march and my feet stay comfortable. Before, even with high-end orthotics, my feet would ache after a few hours and the pain would start to radiate up through my shins and knees. Since I started using this pair last year, I no longer have any of these problems

Best Insoles Ever!

I have been suffering from Plantar fasciitis for over a year now. Went to podiatrist and he put me in another brand of insoles. I had little to no improvement. He told me the next step was custom inserts and that my insurance would not cover the $450 cost. I found these moldable inserts after reading several great reviews. I can actually feel the support on the arch of my foot! I FINALLY am pain free. I have told 2 different people on my tennis team and they went out and bought them. They told me yesterday that both of them can already feel relief. Thank you so much for making a wonderful product. I thought I would never feel relief!!

No Back Pain!

I cook for church ladies monthly. The church kitchen floor is hard tile. If I wear regular shoes my back starts hurting about an hour into cooking. If I wear my cork flips my back doesn't hurt at all even after 3 or more hours of cooking. I love these flips!

tanya

nice pair

I have been suffering from Plantar fasciitis and my physiotherapist recommended using sole products, being expensive i didnt order for long time, but it came to extent that I couldnt tolerate pain, so I thought i should give a try and ordered them. now I wear everyday to even work and feel so comfortable that somebody is protecting my feet. I dont feel any more pain wearing them. I think these are worth each penny than paying hundreds of dollars for physiotherapy. the only downside which I see is little broader around toes

Tom

Plantar fasciitis + Squash

Might sound crazy to spend half as much the price of a performance athletic shoe for an insole, but there is nothing better that I've found on the market for managing/preventing foot pain like Plantar fasciitis. Squash is incredibly tough on your feet. I ALWAYS use these (and happily buy them). Great product SOLE.

Rob Flo

AWESOME!!!

I spend 6-8 hours per day (sometimes 14-16) wearing Danner work boots and walking on a wide variety of terrain. I have used the SOLE insoles for over 2 years and my feet are always comfortable. I have had injuries in the past that led me to buy these insoles and now I recommend them to everyone I know that complains about their feet pain. I love the SOLE insoles. For the price compared to custom made orthotics you can't go wrong.

Tammy Brooks

Perfect

I put these in my moccasins cuz I love those boots, but they are flat shoes, so I cant wear them without being in pain due to my low arch. I then put these in my flat tennis shoes I found for playing tennis. The difference in how I played because of these flat shoes, but with the support of the sole thin inserts is so huge!! These shoes have zero support, but with the inserts, I can feel the ground, am light on my feet & I now run and jump all over the court! The doubles groups I play with are amazed at my immediate progress in tennis. I say... It's the shoes!!... But only because of these sole inserts! Just fantastic!

Nicole Regimbald

Great Slide!

I am a runner and my arches get sore a lot. These are fantastic sport slides. My feet feel great in them. I got a pair for my husband too and he loves them. They have great support and are really comfy! Love them!

sarah meixell

Help for arthritis

My rheumatologist told me to try SOLE inserts instead of custom orthotics, saying they were just as good and much less expensive. WOW!!! Just finished hiking Katahdin in Maine, 10 miles round trip and lots of up, my feet felt great, unusual for me. Thank you so much for creating a product that can help those of us with arthritis to be and stay active.

Pam Wise

Cured!

I Have suffered from plantar faciatis for years and the last few months before getting these shoes were the worst. I could barely walk and I had 4 cortisone shots without any relief. I was sceptical about how these would work-How could these "become" custom to my feet? Well they do! I wear them around the house as slippers and never go without them. Now I am completely pain free! I can wear heels again and it's just like I never had any issues. I love them and will wear them the rest of my life.

Korey Konga

Best work shoes I've ever owned

I am a waiter and I also run ultra marathons for fun. Sole flip slops have been the only product I've found to help relieve my foot pain (most often, Plantar Fasciitis). The only time I spend good money on a shoe is for my running, but I have never found a comfortable work shoe. I took a gamble on these and they were totally worth it! I wear a size 9 normally (size 9 1/2 in my trail shoes) but I took the sole reps recommendation and went with a size 10. They're a little loose, but I feel the 9 probably would've been too tight. Anyways, These are awesome. They feel like I'm wearing flip flops at work and they look professional too! My feet have never been happier, I wish I would've looked into these a long time ago. Thanks Sole!

Trish Scott

Sole sport flips

These are the best slide on sport sandal I've ever worn and worth every penny. With a bad back and have always worn an orthodic,I am very pleased with the results.

Virginia Rainville

Virginia from Princeton, Mass.

I have plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, and severe pronation in both feet. I began walking daily this past January and am walking up to 7 miles per day. this is possible because I am wearing great Brooks Running shoes, Control style, and very importantly...I always have my Sole Softec Ultra footbeds in every pair of shoes I own. They are wonderful. They are the thickest footbed Sole makes. They provide lots of cushioning and control, to keep my heel positioned right where it should be. I love them. I highly recommend them to anyone with similar foot problems. If it wasn't for the combo of great sneakers and great footbeds, I would not be able to walk as much as I am. Thank you Sole for a great product!

Cheryl Phillips

The BEST!!!

I have tried other insoles and none have been as comfortable as these! Don't waste your money on any other footbeds, these are the BEST on the market and their customer service is second to none!! Since wearing these my plantar foot pain and knee problems have gone away. I even bought a pair of soft house mocassins and put a pair of insoles in them to wear when working in the kitchen or doing housework and now I can work for hours with no pain on hard surfaces. I do not bake them in the oven because they feel better brand new and they will form to your foot after a week.

Another Derby Girl Review!

I bought two pair after I'd worn holes through the soles of my skates. These are awesome! It didn't take long to break them in (I didn't do the heat mold, just wore them). They are true to size, I didn't even have to cut them to my boot. My feet feel better, and I my feet are no longer sliding around in my skate boot. I've noticed that my knee pain is significantly improved as well, which I contribute to the better support. Thanks Sole, and thank you for being a supporter of Sacred City Derby Girls!

Christopher Lundquist

Great Product

I have had my Softec Ultra's for about 2 years now, and they have had a dramatic impact on my feet. I was told by my chiropractor that I was flat footed, which I never thought about before, and also effected the pain level of my sciatica problem, but after getting these new soles and doing a couple of sessions with the chiropractor he helped me to be able to walk aging with minimal pain.

Kelly

I can walk!

I can walk! I have been suffering from plantar fasciitis for some time now and even after getting $500 orthotics I was still not improving. Given the lack of benefit I was observing from the one pair of orthotics, I couldn't justify spending that much money on extra sets for all of my shoes. When I saw that the Sole inserts were available for less than a tenth of what I paid, and they are in some ways better than the orthotics, I was able to outfit all of my shoes. It is early days right now, but i am finally walking with no pain ( Xm - fingers crossed!)

Perfect for my Derby Skates

I play roller derby and skate on a size 4.5 Riedell boot. The women's size 7 fits perfect in my boot with just a tiny bit of trimming along the toes to fit width. (I wear a 6.5 normal shoe) I've had a lot of arch problems with my right pushing foot and these have been a big help in easing the pain.

Mark Jordan

FINALLY - After 25 Years.

It's true. I've been snowboarding for 25 years and have suffered through all of the big name boots with high arches & insteps, to the point that I was convinced foot pain and numb toes were simply part of the sport. Saving an extremely long saga, these footbeds have rejuvenated my love for the carve. They have allowed me to focus on my experience rather than how many more runs I can get in before I have to pack it in and take off my boots.

Jennifer Berndt

great for kids too

My 11yr old daughter had constant nagging feet and ankle pains/strains while playing competitive soccer. We tore out the existing soccer cleat liner and added these inserts with complete resolution of complaints. Now we will add them to all her shoes when possible.

Tambra Crecelius

Awesome

My back and feet were killing me.i work ten hour factory shifts on concrete floors night after night.my brother turned me on to your insoles after trying countless others.thank you for this awesome product.my back and feet no longer hurt me.

Cheryl Blaquiere

Very Comfortable

I have been wearing the Sole insoles for about a year now with no issues whatsoever and find them very comfortable for my needs and daily activities. They were recommended to me by my podiatrist after discovering I have Mortons neuroma in the left foot and plantar facisatis in both feet.

Will Pfeiffer

Great Flips!

These flips are awesome.. they are the only flips I have that I can wear an entire day walking without foot pain, particularly in my arches. Yes.. the web over the top of the foot is a little tight to begin with, but over time as you break them in they offer a perfectly snug fit that I can wear with confidence in a variety of terrains without losing a flip.

Lloyd English

I could hear angels singing

Over the past three years I have been from Walmart to Footsmart buying inserts to help with my foot pain; I even purchased two differnt types of custom inserts. When I walked into the Virginia Runners store in Fredericksburg, Va, put the Softec Ultra Footbeds in my shoe, and took a few steps, the clouds parted, the sun came out, and I could hear angels singing. Thank you !, thank you!, thank you!.

Jack Ross

Brilliant

Very happy I found this product! I've tried virtually every insole under the sun for my high arched and painful feet for around 5 years - NHS orthotics I've been made from several podiatrists have always been too hard, other off the shelf insoles I've had good cushioning but not enough support. After some extensive searching I bought some Softec Ultras and the Thin Sport insoles as they seemed to offer good custom support. I've been wearing them now for a few weeks and think I've finally found the insole I have been looking for. They offer great support but also have the right amount of flexibility so my feet don't feel like they are walking on rocks. I had to trim them down a bit at the front to fit in my shoes but now they fit amazingly. For the Ultra I need to take the factory insoles out, but in some shoes the thin sport fits well with the original insole still in. Offering different levels of thickness is a brilliant idea by sole so I can wear them in all different types of shoes. I just wore them as they came - I didn't bother with the heat moulding as they already seemed to be a good fit. The Ultra is almost perfect but one thing I think that could improve the insole is if they used a cushioning similar to the 'Lunarlon' memory foam cushioning material that I have in some of my Nike shoes - the best cushioning I've found. Hopefully day they will look into that! I would highly recommend Sole insoles to anyone, as they really are the most comfortable insoles I've used. Just before I got them was planning to go to a private podiatrist to see if I get some custom orthotics with good cushioning made - at the cost of 300+. Safe to say I am very glad I have found these as not only are they cheaper but I don't think the podiatirst would have come up with anything as good as them.

Judith Jankowski

Would give more stars

I love these flip flops! They are the very best ever for people suffering from plantar facsiits, like me. Like a previous reviewer, my dog chewed up my first pair -- and then I found this site and bought two more. For the first time in months, I was able to get up in the AM and not cry out in pain. Granted I've also been doing some exercises and stretches to help, but with this sandal in combo -- I'm finally over the hump.

mark asher

pain cured

I'm a Diesel Mech and stand on concrete all day in boots. Had no support. I bought a pair of Softec Ultra because my daily plantar pain was killing me from first step out of bed and any time i would stand up I would limp because of pain. I did everything the doctor said except buy 350.00 special orthos.My daughter is in the army and told me about soles they all use them to run. They have great support. Doctor said I had a collapsed, arch. I did not even put in oven I use as they are. Six months later I was cured. I'm even running again at 50 two miles every other day.Have a pair in all my shoes now. Do not buy orthos without trying this product.50.00 over 350. any day. I have had foot problems all my life. I've tried all the inserts on the market. These the only one that worked less orthos. I glad to discuss this with anyone my E-mail was provided to Sole

Sarah Clegg

Live in these, litterally

I found this shoe about 2 years ago when they went on sale at a local Walk/Run Store....ooooh and they are the best ever! I have rheumatoid arthritis as well as plantar fasciitis; needing a metatarsal support pad....I think they cover it. I wear them around house in winter as slippers, actually have hard time walking without them as they support my feet correctly, and wear them pretty much 24/7 in the summer as the tan lines on my feet shows...lol

eli soto

AHHHH

Loved this product. From the moment I stepped into them, I felt instant relief! My plantar fasciitis has made it difficult to find a pair of sandals that are comfortable to walk in. These are great. I would have given it a 5 star rating, however there was rubbing on the top left inner strap where my foot over pronates and rubs against. I hope that will go away soon because I love the way they feel on the bottom of my feet!

Ryan Schweitzer

I owe you so much

I have been living with horrible plantar fasciitis for over a year now. I tried just about every insole I could get my hands on with no results. Being an Infantryman in the Army I come across a lot of gimmicks and plenty of people looking to take our money. One day I went into the clothing and sales on Fort Bliss and I saw a rack of these Sole Softec Response Moldable Footbeds. A salesperson was doing a bit of a demo showing how easy these insoles are to mold and how firm the arch support was. I read the directions and figured even I can't mess this up. A few minutes of trimming and a few minutes in the oven and in the boots they went. I have been pain free every day since. As I look back at all of the money I wasted on insoles, night splints and all of the time spent suffering with horrible pain, I honestly thought I would suffer for the rest of my life. Thank you so much for making a quality product that honestly saved my career and gave me life back. If there is anything that I can do for your company other than telling everyone I can think of about your product please let me know. I owe you so much.

Dan S.

No More Shin Splints

I'm a football referee and I used to get terrible shin splints. During a game one of the athletic trainers could see that I was hobbling a bit and was in pain so he asked what the problem was, after explaining how I get very painful shin splints he told me about Sole inserts. I got my first pair 2 years ago, which I still use to this day, and haven't had even a hint of shin splints since. My Soles have also dramatically improved my lower back pain. I can't rave enough about Soles. I love them and will NEVER be without them again. Thank you Soles!

Danny S

After a couple weeks my pain was gone

Just writing to thank you for your excellent product. I'm a very active person -- I participate in a multitude of sports, including frequent hiking. I experienced mild yet persistent knee pain for many months. I stumbled across your Signature EV Ultras at REI several months ago; within a couple of weeks after inserting them into my hiking boots, my pain was gone.

Dawnia Radig

THE BEST SANDAL FOR PF

Having PF for over 8 years, this is the only sandal I have been able to wear. I first got them in a steel blue/gray. But now the only colors available in size 11 are black or brown. Please, Please make more colors for size 11's!! I know I will buy them!

Laura Brads

Post Back Surgery Pain-Free

These SOLE footbeds are absolutely amazing! I have had 3 back surgeries in the past 5 years, the 3rd being a fusion, and my physical therapist recommended these footbeds and your products. This spring after healing from my fusion, I bought these footbeds and 2 pair of flips...one casual, one sport. I LOVE all of your products and my back is staying strong. I used to have custom-fit orthotics years ago which cost $350. I would never know the difference between those and these. My arches usually fall upon wearing regular shoes or flip flops, but these footbeds with a wonderful arch support have kept that from happening since the day I began using them!!!! Thank you, SOLE!!!!!!!!

Relief

Suffered with plantar fasciitis for several years, got so bad I couldn't walk. Finally went for PT and other treatments with the possiblity of surgery if pain did not improve. Purchased $500 orthotics, but still suffered some discomfort, with tightness in the heel/foot every morning and intermittent discomfort/pain while up. Recently, I started to get severe pain in both feet again, somedays it hurt so bad it was difficult walking, and this was with my custom orthotics. I was ready to go back to the doctor and PT, when I remembered I had bought these SOLE soles just before I got my orthotics so I never really used them. I put the SOLES in my work boots and within three days my pain was almost completely gone. A month or so later, I am 100% pain free in both feet and absolutely no pain/stiffness/tightness in the morning. I have to believe these SOLES gave me this relief. I would recommend these to anyone suffering from any kind of foot problem. I will be buying a couple more pairs to put in my other shoes...Thank You SOLE!

Anne S

Your product is a miracle!

Your product is a god send. I'm a 54 year old woman who loves to walk and despite paying over $1000.00 for two pairs of custom made orthotics, they stopped working after 6 months. Not only did they stop working but they were causing unbearable aching and throbbing even when I wasn't mobile. The "expert" said there was nothing wrong with them. It was to the point where I couldn't walk around a grocery store without pain. I thought I was going to end up riding one of those scooters. When I removed the orthotics, the aching stopped. But my feet were still so sore when I walked anywhere - even just around the house. In desperation, I tried your insoles. Minutes later, I went for a 1 km walk. And I haven't stopped since. I have quite a high instep so your insoles give me the support I need. I have since ordered another pair, plus three pairs of flip flops and a pair of sliders. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Your product is a MIRACLE!!!

SOLE Footbeds have saved me from surgery

I have flat feet which has resulted in plantar fasciitis and achilles tendinitis. SOLE footbeds along with brooks dyad sneakers has relieved pain, allowed me to continue to run, and saved me from surgery.

Rachel Russell

so great

I bought these in purple after I read the reviews. I have a high arch and nothing but my custom orthotics give me this much support. The first day I wore them I was not that impressed but by the third day, they molded to my feet and I really do look forward to them on. I wear them out shopping or running errands, as well as around the house. I love them! I am going to get another pair. Try them if you have back pain or your feet hurt after being on your feet all day. You will get hooked!

Tevita Taufa

The Best

This is the best sole I ever used while I'm in the Army. It worked perfectly and comfortly inside your running shoes and combat boots. I utilized in all my deployments and save a lots of yrs on my knees and backs and trust me with all the loads you carried, it will bring relieve to the pain on your soul..lols and I recommended to all the Soldiers and Warriors downrange..

Brian johnson

Get These

12 hours on my feet running around a very busy ER and no more back/ foot pain. I've tried many pairs of insoles over the last 20+ years but these are by far the best. I was starting to get plantar fasciitis, bought these my feet stopped hurting. Then i noticed that my low back wasn't hurting as much. Now no more back pain in part due to improved posture when standing. Being pain free and able to work is worth every penny.

carol chandler

best shoes

I purchased a pair of your shoes for the first time last winter, and can't wait to order my next pair. They're the only shoes that eliminate all my foot pain.

Lara Sees

Love, Love, LOVE These!!

These are the best pair of shoes I have EVER owned! I have a bad back and ankles that have been broken/sprained numerous times. These SOLE Flips (bought with a Groupon) were the best money I have ever spent! I even got a pair for my husband and he loves his too! My Chiropractor was even asking me about them since she was the one who suggested I look into an orthopedic-type flip. I never want to take these off! If you could make a dress shoe that fits as well as these and as comfortable, I'd get one in every color!

Kathy Thornberry

Absolutely Fantastic!!!

I was hobbling with plantar fasciitis. When diagnosed, my doctor told me to go get running shoes with orthodics. At the shoe store I was shown these flips..... I was able to walk without pain immediately! Can't say that about the running shoes with the orthodics. I have purchased 3 pairs of these flips and wish I could find more. Why the shortage?

Keith Fitzsimmons

Best Insoles ever

Hi I had a mid foot fusion some 10 months ago, and as a Physiotherapist who knows which insoles should work and not only help my problem but other patients problems, I was blown away at how much pain relief and support the sole insoles have given me. I can now walk 4 miles in minimal pain after only 6 weeks of using them in my neutral trainers. I have now started issuing them at our military base for service personnel and every user had come back and made exactly the same positive remarks. I would highly recommend these insoles to anyone.

Victoria Day

excellent!

I have been using Sole inserts in my walking shoes for the past year with great results for my foot pain due to over-pronation and flat feet. So, I was thrilled to see these sandals. I was concerned that they would not fit my size 10 narrowish foot, but they are perfect for me. I am very happy to find such a well made and comfortable product. Please make lots more styles of shoes and sandals:-)

Ross

I was able to walk for hours using the sole footbeds

I do not know the mechanism of action however the following may be relevant.30 years ago I had surgery on my forefoot with removal of 2 toes. I believe the stability of my transverse arch and longitudinal arch was compromised minimally. With time and perhaps a slight weight increase the collapse of both of these arches occurred . The sole insole has helped to restore the arches .. By trial and error I have learned that using boot type shoes I can further stabilise the ankle joint, However this alone is not adequate to relieve my pain. Prior to using the sole footbeds I was often unable to walk for long distances on flat concrete without moderate or worse pain. I have just returned after visiting 3 European cities with most of the walking surfaces cobblestones. I was able to walk for hours using the sole footbeds. (particularly the Ultra products.) As a semiretired academic surgeon who has practised surgery for over 35 years I have conclude in the treatment of my patients that any procedure or technique that works is worth pursuing if there is no risk of worsening a condition even if the exact mechanism of action is not known. I believe the Sole footbeds meet this criteria! Thank you very much.

Mark Loydall

Good Stuff

I have been using Your Sole products for about 2 years now. The insoles are at least as good as the ones I had custom made when I was first diagnosed with plantar fasciatus and gait issues. The ultra softec footbeds are great to run in and when you have finished the flip flops are great to relax in. In fact it is great that I can now wear flip flops and not end up crippled by pain as ordinary ones seem to do to me after only short period of wear. I have now bought my first pair of sports socks to see if they are as good as the other products.

Nathan Freeburg

Best sandals of all time.

I bought the sport flips last summer, and they have been the best, most comfortable footwear I own. I can walk long distance in them without pain (and this from someone who has has plantar fascitis). Very comfortable after a run, around the house, or everyday use.

I will never use any insert again except sole inserts

I'm currently a proud member of the armed forces and in the army I spend a lot of my time on my feet. Sole inserts give added comfort to combat boots and make taking care of my feet so much easier. My feet and knees and back are much more supported now with sole inserts, I will never use any insert again except sole inserts. I have recommended sole to my friends and and other soldiers as well, my wife even bought a couple of pair and instantly loved them. Thanks for a wonderful product and keep up the great work.

They are the ultimate insert for my falling arches

A few years ago, at the age of about 25, my high arches started to feel the strain of not getting enough support, even with $200.00 shoes designed to support all the areas of my arch. I had a sore arch and heel spurs from standing for 10+ hours a day, and spent hundreds of dollars and tons of time researching different inserts and learned all about what made my foot unique and how to solve my problems. The ONLY solution I was able to find outside of birkenstock cork-bed sandals was the SOLE heat-moldable inserts. Unlike any insert on the market that I could find, they not only have the ability to fit the TOTAL area of my foot's needed support like a custom glove, but are also stiff, therefore disallowing my foot's arch to stretch as I step (a major reason my arch becomes sore during standing/walking/running, etc.) They are the ultimate insert for my falling arches, much needed inside-heel support, and keep my foot stiff and firm, not allowing that arch tendon to stretch. Lastly, they really help keep my foot aligned well and not tilted at all, which can cause my left kee especially to ache. With the bulk purchasing on the website, I can regularly get a great deal on as many as I can pick up in a package deal at a time, making sure that each and every shoe I own has its own insole. I'm planning on being a lifelong customer for sure. I wear them out and buy more.

Lisa Goodman

insert perfection

I've tried so many custom orthotics - all failures. They were either too hard, they fell apart, or they actually bruised varying feet bones due to imperfect fit. How many times do you return to the podiatrist before you give up? Then I tried Sole's footbeds. The whole family does. I won't wear a shoe without them. My feet problems don't hurt anymore and I can walk for miles without pain - first time in many years. I have neuromas, tendonitis from multiple sprains and twists, and metatarsal tenderness and all of them, while not completely gone, do not cause me constant pain anymore. What an incredible relief. Having tried another brand's insert, which was okay, a tad cheaper, it did not compare to the support of Sole's. I am very relieved to have found them.

DAVID MILLETTE

NO MORE BACK PAIN

Sixty-two years ago I was born with flat feet so I've always needed arch support. All the products that I tried, over the years offered varying degrees of service life with a max of say... 3-months! I bought my 1st pair of SOLE's over a year ago. Within hours of using this product, sciatica and low back pain disapeared! Whats-more? I get 3-times more service life out of my footwear AND the original pair of SOLE's are still in service! I love these things...they have saved me $$$ too.

Really didn't like them

I got one of each type of sock from Sole when I bought my footbeds. The insoles are fantastic! But this review is about the socks. I wear these socks mostly for going running and playing basketball or soccer. I found the non-dual layer sock to be perfect - no blisters, very comfortable, I love it and will order more. I found the dual-layer to be more annoying than anything. I couldn't ever get the two layers to match up nicely after the first time (before washing) and it was always a pain to put the socks on. And if you want to adjust your shoes, you need to start the whole process over. They aren't too pricey, so I'd recommend doing what I did: First order one of each type of sock and see what you like. I threw this pair away and now I just wear the traditional single layer one.

Lisa G

You are doing something very right

Dear Sole, I want to thank you for your inserts. I've been to 4 podiatrists over the course of the last 6-7 years, and have had orthotics made by all. None have helped my feet the way yours do. After years of pain ranging from neuromas, metatarsel issues, tendonitis, and various other lovely feet issues, I can say I've been pain free in the walking department for the last 6 weeks due to your inserts. I cannot thank you enough. You are doing something very right. be well, have a wonderful new year.. will continue to purchase inserts for everyone in our family..

Now I have them for all my shoes

I had suffered with plantar fasciitis for a year before I purchased my first pair of footbeds. Since purchasing my first pair, I have been pain free and am loving it! Now I have them for all my shoes.

Chad Snyder

Within three days virtually ALL of the pain in my left foot was gone!

Hi, My name is Chad Snyder from Bent Mountain Va. Being a big guy 6'2" and 300 lbs, 40 years old and very active I am hard on my feet to say the least. For the last year I have suffered badly with plantar fasciitis in my left foot. About two weeks ago I purchased a pair of Sole Ultra moldable footbeds for my boots. Rather than heating them to get a fit I simply put them in my boots and went on my way. Within three days virtually ALL of the pain in my left foot was gone! After two weeks I can't remember what it felt like to have that excruciating pain when I took my first steps of the morning. I am not overstating how happy this makes me then I say that I am ECSTATIC!!! If you know anything about plantar fascilitis you know it can be all but debilitating. I have tried several other products over the last year and nothing worked. Thanks for the great product and thanks helping me get rid of my pain!!

Mike

My dogs were screaming by the end of the day

Worked on concrete 10 hours a day. My dogs were screaming by the end of the day. By the end of the week I could barely take a step without pain. For 4 years I tried different shoes. The Redwing/Sole combination took care of the problem. Now my feet hurting aren't even in the picture anymore. Thanks.

Prior to using the SOLE Orthotics I was experiencing leg and knee pain after running long distances

Prior to using the SOLE Orthotics I was experiencing leg and knee pain after running long distances. After using them I do not experience pain anymore. A month after using SOLE Orthotics I ran in a half marathon, set a new personal record and wasn't even sore the next day. Before if I were to run a half marathon I would be sore for up to a week afterwards. This year (2011) I am going to take my running career to a whole other level by running in Ultra Marathons. But with running these longer distances come with the potential for running related injuries. Therefore, to try to prevent most running related injuries I plan on purchasing a few more pairs of SOLE Orthotics. I would like to have a pair in every pair of my shoes (work and running). I don't know if SOLE has any kind of athlete endorsment programs but I would love to represent SOLE and spread the word about how great of a product they are.

Best relief available

I've read the other reviews and agree. there isn't anything better. I 'had' plantar faciatis. I had a knee replaced. I had a lot of foot pain. I got 3 pair of these and put them in my shoes. Switched them for whatever insoles come with the shoes, and there's always a noticeable improvement. The insoles that come with most any shoe you buy is the cheapest part of the shoe, yet is what you need for good support. Go figure. These are great and will be the only insoles I use...

I took the plunge and have never been more satisfied with my decision

I actually purchased my SOLE sandals while vacationing. I was looking for a pair of Reef sandals when the sales representative suggested your sandals for a little more money. I took the plunge and have never been more satisfied with my decision. I have had problems with pain in the ball of my foot area. Since getting these sandals (which before this time I would not wear flip flops) I no longer experienced the pain while wearing my sandals so now I wear them daily. If I could get away with it I would wear them to work, but I can't so, I then decided to purchase some of your footbeds. The problem I had was that my shoes range from a 9.5 to a 10.5 (depending on the style and make). Fortunately I purchased the same size of my sandals (10) and they fit perfectly into the 3 different pairs of shoes. I have since recommended them to a couple of my friends who also purchased footbeds and sandals.

5 years + and still working.

I bought these inserts because I was diagnosed with plantar faciitis. It was very painful and the doctor recommended these. I molded them to my feet and immediately felt relief. I have had the same pair for the last five years and they are still working. I put them in whatever shoes or sneakers that I am wearing after removing the inserts that come with the shoes. I am on my feet all day working and walking back and forth on cement floors. These inserts saved me from constant pain. The top layer is finally wearing thin after all these years so I am going to get another pair. I highly reccommend them to everyone with foot or knee pain.

Mark

Outstanding

The Exhale is a great fit, warm and gives you a slipper and outdoor shoe all in one. Having plantar fasciitis and pronation it is important to have a good custom fit. The Sole people do it with precision.

I have been a happy customer for about five years now

I am a family physician and also practiced in the Air Force for several years before going civilian. I suffered from plantar faciitis for six straight years. I found SOLE footbeds in my military uniform store around 2005. I bought a pair for my combat boots and they were amazing. I then went online and ordered some for my running shoes, my soccer shoes, and my casual shoes. I have been a happy customer for about five years now and with the combination of my SOLE footbeds and a little activity modification, I have been rid of my plantar faciitis symptoms for over two years now. I am always careful though, because I know the symptoms can return. One of the preventive maintenance things I always do is wear shoes indoors when I walk around on our tile flooring. After reading the great reviews, I am going to order my first pair of SOLE sandals and plan to use them when walking around on our tile floors as one more way to stave off any return of my previous heel pain symptoms. I can't wait until they arrive. SOLE has not failed me yet!

For the last two years every practice and game has been a nightmare

I have really extreme overpronation and low arches and live a very active lifestyle. I play tennis and football for my college and for the last two years every practice and game has been a nightmare. I get really bad shin splints and for as long as I can remember Ive had to take 4 or 5 ibuprofen just to make it through practice and even then I was in pain. I tried these footbeds over my medical orthodics and miraculously have no pain almost instantly! These things are great and have me saying goodbye to the podiatrist and looking forward to practice!

Cynthia Mone

Foot And Knee Problems??

I run 5 miles a day and after many years of doing this I began having extreme foot pain and knee pain so bad that it stopped me from running. The Dr. diagnosed me with plantar fasciitis and arthritis in my knees. He said my feet would heal by itself in due time but to stay off my feet, but I need to learn to live with the pain in my knees. I did for a while but it didn't improve at all. I finally tried these foot beds and in under a week both problems disappeared completely. I will never wear shoes without them again. I Love them. Thank you so much for making these.

Andreas Holzberger

"acclimated to the sole"

A year ago I had severe knee pains along with discomfort in my lower back. The job I worked for at the time required me to be on my feet a lot. So eventually I visited an Orthopedic Specialist for physical therapy and the Specialist recommended these insoles for both work and leisure. Since then the pain has gotten a lot less severe, I’m also not standing as much at work anymore. The arch and heel of my feet have acclimated to the sole. So overall I’m impressed, I think anyone who might be experiencing any sort of back, knee or feet pain should give them a try.

These will keep me jogging on!

Immediate relief from foot pain. These will keep me jogging on!

These are the best sandals I've ever worn

These are the best sandals I've ever worn! I've suffered from plantar fasciitis, heel pain, knee pain and shin pain for the last 10 years and I haven't been able to wear flip flops or even most sandals without a lot of pain after about 15 minutes of wearing them. I'm a runner and I'm forced to wear orthotics in shoes for pronation and the plantar fasciitis to eliminate some of the pain and problems so I had pretty much given up on wearing sandals. I won a pair of the sport flips in promotion through work for selling some of the insoles. When I got them I was skeptical because sandals and flip flops have always hurt my feet and they just end up collecting dust in the closet. Well, I stood for 4 hours on the sport flips at work, and pretty much haven't taken them off in the 3 days that I've had them. They are great! They provide lots of arch support and my feet haven't hurt at all. In fact the plantar fasciitis has bothered me the least in the last few days than it has in months. These are by far the best shoes I've ever worn. I've ordered a pair for my partner off your website and have recommended them to all of my friends and fellow runners. I can't believe what a difference they've made. Keep up the good work! You make a superior product.

They gave me more relief from my plantar fascitis than the custom orthotics I'd tried

I bought Soles in preparation for a ten day hike on the AT last Spring. They gave me more relief from my plantar fascitis than the custom orthotics I'd tried. Yesterday, they really paid off again - I was clearing a friend's yard and stepped on a three-inch rusty nail sticking out of a board. The nail went through the sole of my hiking boot like butter, but didn't peirce my skin. I chalked it up to luck, but later on, when I took off my soggy boots and removed the inserts to dry, I found a nice little dent in the bottom of my right Sole - it had stopped the nail which would have gone through my foot for sure. Thanks for saving me from a trip to the doctors office, a tetanus shot, and a week of limping!!

I have tried many other brands, but have never had the success that I had with Sole

After experiencing chronic foot pain (gout, plantar fasciitis, heel spurs and cramping brought on by limping from a severe hamstring injury) my podiatrist recommended Sole inserts. It took a couple of months, but all my foot problems went away. This was about 10 years ago. I have tried many other brands, but have never had the success that I had with Sole. A lot people have recommended Superfeet and I have tried them. I don't think there is anything wrong with the other brands, its just that for me personally Sole is the most comfortable and gives me the best results. I buy enough pairs in different thicknesses to put in the shoes that I wear most often. And I have a couple pairs in different thicknesses that I transfer from shoe to shoe as needed. I should mention that I am a big hiker. I go 2 miles every morning and go on 4 to 8 hour hikes about once or twice a week. Depending on the hike and the weather, I use heavy duty Vasques, lightweight Patagonia, sandals from either Teva or Keen and hiking boots from Keen. I wear the inserts with everything except Chaco sandals. I have also worked as a lift operator at ski areas and have always worn inserts in my snow boots. Bumping chairs all day is really brutal on your feet. You stand on the ball of your foot and lift your heel. As the people sit down, you bump the chair and let it spin you around, so you see the takeoff. When you see that no one has fallen out you must spin back around for the next chair. This is repeated every 5 to 7 seconds. I never had one bit of foot problem.

Tom Greer

Awesome

I have been a runner since High School & as my body aged my feet hurt constantly to the point my plantar fasciatis was always a pain. Met these guys at a trade Show & put the insoles in & now I can run 6 miles daily with no pain. Not bad for 42 years old. Thank you guys for taking the pain away so I can enjoy my daily runs again!

Edmond Chhung

VERY GOOD but . . .

I bought these because I felt I needed more support in my shoes for playing badminton. Since badminton is very intense on the knees and ankles, when you play at a high standard. Before I used these insoles I used to get knee pain every so often , but now since i got them, I haven't had it since. SO THEY WORK IN MY OPINION!! I do have a few small problems with them though They are quite thick, it may not sound like a lot on the page but trust me they will make a normal shoe tight to wear for a while untill the shoes break out a bit (especially badminton shoes). Also it may not be a problem for most people but in badminton these will only last as long as your shoes really i have burned through the cushioning down to the plastic on some parts. Lastly they weigh quite a bit for an insole, i measured them and one is 80grams, a normal insole is roughly half that. BUT. . . these problems are minor compared to what they give you in return (no pain). I will be trying the sole response next time.

Nathalie Clericy

I'm ecstatic about the results

First I'd like to say that your insoles ROCK!� I tore my plantar fascia a few years ago and in addition to that have always had foot pain of some kind when hiking, whether 5 miles or multi-day and I never thought I'd be able to hike without worrying about how my feet would feel afterwards.� I purchased the Signature EV Ultra footbed for my hiking boots that will take me backpacking this season and I'm ecstatic about the results as I was literally skipping after my last long hike. I also purchased a couple of Softec Response footbeds for my trail runners that I use for light hiking and general all day walking and a pair of Thin Casuals for my tennis shoes and so far I am amazed; no pain whatsoever.� The pain and discomfort I used to feel everyday from minimal to major is now gone but I do feel it when I don't use the footbeds.� In fact, it's so noticeable that my husband jokes about me having my footbeds when we go somewhere to make sure I can keep up. One comment I have though is that the footbed doesn't exactly fit the shoes.� The shoes and boots are size 6 as are the footbeds, but they're 4/16 short of the end.� I first noticed it on the heel when I slipped the boots on; the footbed had slipped off the back of the heel, so I brought it flush with the heel but then found that the toe now has space.� Since I wear my boots a 1/2 size larger it's not an issue in performance or comfort, but I was just curious if others had mentioned this? Either way I'm keeping all of my footbeds and will definitely purchase more in the future as well as recommending them to all my friends.� Thank you for a great product!

It won't be my last pair - they are awesome

I bought my first pair of Sole Sandals - the sport slide. It won't be my last pair - they are awesome. I have struggled with plantar fasciitis for 7 years. Unfortunately, the podiatrist I was seeing didn't treat my condition properly. After enduring too much pain, I found another podiatrist and had foot surgery in February 2010. About a month ago, I started experiencing excruciating heel pain. I had been told that I would still experience pain for about 6 months. But this was a different sensation & wasn't getting better, so I went to my doctor yesterday. He said my bone was severely bruised and that it would take about 2 months to heal and I needed physical therapy. He also told me to make sure I was wear good shoes even around the house. I didn't want to wear my athletic shoes or dress shoes in the house; yet, my house slippers weren't providing enough support & it hurts to go barefooted. So I googled heel pain and treatments & found a website that recommended your sandals. I went to your website, found a local retailer and bought them today. So this long winded email to say... thank you!! I had relief immediately. It doesn't hurt so bad to just walk. I had been wearing Fit Flops & Skeechers new Tone Up sandals which didn't give me the proper support.

Nell

They are truly amazing sandals

I'm almost 8 months pregnant but I can wear my sole flips all day without getting sore feet. That's a first! I'd thought sore feet were just another one of the inevitable symptoms of pregnancy. I've been wearing my sole flips everywhere ever since I got them and my feet are totally pain free. They are truly amazing sandals and I would recommend them to anyone!

Ready to RUN

A bone spur on my left foot can cause me a lot of pain when I run too much( about 20 miles per week outdoors)- However I went to my Dr. and he recommended this product. Ironically I ran a 10k race 2 days after my purchase and I have to tell I'm impressed. I should have road tested them prior to the race but I figured what the heck do I have to loose other than the race. The uphill route was not an issue and my legs felt great even 2 days later no pain. This was a great purchase! Cheers Gerald

Happy Troops

I am a Physician Assitant deployed to Iraq right now and we have a stock of Sole inserts and they have been a Godsend. I have seen more plantar fasciitis over the past months than in the past 5 years of practice. I tried some insoles because I was having some foot pain and I fell in love. We have gone through over 100 pairs for our troops and we keep ordering more because word got out and they are helping everything from foot, ankle, knee, hip and even back pain. I can't say enough about these insoles. Every other PA and Doctor here also has a pair in their shoes after hearing me and my patients rave about them and they are all in love now too.

Marcos L.

they have helped tremendously

I sware by these insoles. For the last nine months, I have been suffering with heel pain - plantar fasciitis. I tried several different insoles, even custom orthotics and the best pain relief I could get is by wearing the DK Insoles. While I won't say they have "cured" my problem, they have helped tremendously. None of the other insoles gave me the deep heel cup or the fit and comfort of your product. Thanks SOLE! You have a loyal customer for life.

Marv Caldwell

Thank you

I suffered with plantar fasciitis for over two years, very miserable, I am a nurse and of course on my feet for hours. Finally the third Podiatrist I went to said to buy a shoe that bends only at the ball of the foot, and buy Sole inserts. The relief was immediate and I have been comfortable for over two yrs. now. I can tell when I need to reheat and mold, or new ones or new shoes. For the relief I got and the price, very thankful, worth every penny for sure!!!

karenolson

No pain just comfort

they feel like toning shoes, my feet actually rock. No pain just comfort, I don't want to take them off

Good for tight-fitting lightweight shoes

These thin soles are great for lightweight, low volume shoes like my Nike Skylons. They don't take up too much space, yet provide great support for my plantar fascitis.

Ned Smith

Long Lasting cusion and high arch support.

In the last couple of years, foot and ankle pain have set me back. I'd been going back and forth to the podiatrist, getting new casts for custom orthodics, walking on the gel for a high tech casting for orthodics, etc. Everything always came back with the arch starting in the middle of my heel and giving me no arch support. I have size 14 feet and I think the shoe companies imagine people with bigger feet still have their arches in the same spot as little feet. Anyway, I got a new Podiatrist who is the favorite of the Northwest Ballet. He recommended Softec Ultras. They've made a huge difference. The arch started at the edge of my heal but it molded to me just fine. I didn't use the oven for fear the arch would fall a bit, I just let them mold to me over time, which they did nicely. They have the feeling of a brand new pair of Asics Gel Nimbus, but with a higher arch and more cushion. They last longer than the Asics standard 3 months. I've had these in my Asics for about 9 months and the Asics were about 3 months old when I put in the Softec Ultras. Which brings up the thought that the Asics don't wear out so fast, the Asic footbeds are what wears out. They really helped with my, sitting, standing, ankle-knee-hip board work, walking, and drumming endurance. Life is a lot better than I thought it would be by now.

Another PT review

I saw these at a professional conference and bought some for myself. I have just walkerd all over New Zealand in them with NO FOOT PAIN!! I highly recommend and am sending some to my Aunt!

Ben Andrews

Changed my life

I've tried and failed in the past to get into running due to knee, hip and pain caused by my over pronation. Having a pair of these into my various shoes, I'm feeling great, and on my way to running my first triathlon. I had various custom cast orthotics made for me during my teens, but these beet them hands down. A note on the customer service I have recieved: Excelent! They even replaced my first pair after I incinerated them (set oven to Celcius during an attack of stupidity).

Jim in CT

I have gained freedom from pain in my feet, hips back and neck

I tried these without any recommendation or knowledge of your company or product line. I have suffered for years from problems with foot alignment, a bad back, and even orthopedic surgery to correct back and foot problems. Doctors prescribed incredibly expensive orthotics which my insurance company will not pay for (they are a luxury item). When I stumbled across your website, honestly I thought to myself "what do I have to lose?" I have lost nothing. I have gained freedom from pain in my feet, hips back and neck for the first time in about ten years. I can't thank you enough. I am on my feet all day long and walk a lot. I am becoming your best, free advertisement and will certainly be a repeat customer. Thank you, from the bottom of my feet!

The ONLY Flip-Flip if You've had Plantar Faschitis!

Like many runners out there, I developed plantar fasciitis and was stuck wearing only my sneakers with insoles for months. After finally "recovering" (although I believe this is a chronic condition and once you get PF, you are prone for reoccurence), these flip-flops were an AMAZING new option for me that provided support, structure, and comfort. If you've ever had arch problems, you will know how terrible ballet flats and normal flip-flops are for your feet. Seriously try these flip-flops and your arches will thank you!

Jamie

Try these first!

I have a knee injury. The Dr. sent me to PT for weeks but the pain wouldn't stop. I then spent a month staying off it, not working, not driving, but the pain continued. The Dr. then pulled these out of his shoe and told me to try them before going for a horrible injection or worse, surgery. It's been three days and the pain is fading. I don't know if this is the fix, but it's the only progress made in months. Try these BEFORE spending hundreds on PT, X-rays, and Dr. appointments. It could save you a ton.

Wendy Cordia

LOVE these flip flops

I've been looking for flip flops that offer support but is still stylish to help with my PF problems. I am thrilled to have found these shoes! They make my feet feel great and I can wear them without any pain! Thank you for making something so cute and comfortable!!

Unknown

They did what they were supposed to do

Was suffering from extreme pain on little toe, due partially to a previous surgery, and was referred to an orthopedic surgeon by my regular doctor. The orthapedic surgeon suggested that prior to another surgery I should try these orthodics from Sole, and a wider shoe. I did so, and after 6 weeks now, on my follow up visit this week; the place doesn't hurt nearly as bad.He suggest now that I should not have the surgery and keep on trying the orthodics. They did what they were supposed to do, and I have already recomended them to some friends and relatives. Thanks very much.

Bill Drake

BETTER THAN PHYSICAL THERAPY?

During a terrible car accident, in which I should have died, my right ankle was crushed. After 2 weeks in a trauma unit, I went home with 5 pins and a plate holding my ankle together, while it healed in a cast. I came out of the cast 2 months later, on my way to an amazing miraculous recovery. My foot survived, but is now pronated to the inside. (at least I have it. Doctors thought I would lose it) I went to a podiatrist during physical therapy and he suggested I try Sole Inserts before resorting to $500 custom orthotics. After wearing these inserts for 2 weeks, I walk without a limp. These are amazing and have given me new hope for a relatively normal life!! Thank you

Karen Lister

Worth every penny

Had a pair of these last year and lived in them constantly throughout the summer. I used to get arch pain in ordinary flip flops but this totally took that pain away. As soon as they have my size in stock in the colour that I want I will be purchasing another pair for this year.

Joshua

Happy to say they were love at first fit

I’ve been using Sole brand orthotics to correct my functional hallux limitus with associated exostosis (in other words – a painful bunion and flat feet). I’ve tried a variety of orthotics (orthopaedic insoles that go in the shoes to correct poor alignment) with varying success. A couple of expensive custom-made pairs – one from a physiotherapist and the other a biomechanical podiatrist – were both failures for me. I then tried a pair of Tulis but they weren’t quite right. I then was given a pair of Superfeet which I liked even more. I think this is a good brand for many people. And then along came Sole and another sample for me to try. Happy to say they were love at first fit. The Sole orthotics have a slim fit range which fit nicely into all of my shoes (of course they’re all roomy MBTs with removeable insoles which helps). Ideally, have them fit by a physiotherapist or podiatrist who can put the feet in the right position. In my case, I’ve been able to use them without the molding but probably would have an even better result with it. So now I carry Sole orthotics in my physiotherapy practice. For more complex biomechanical problems, I tend to send my patients to a local podiatrist.

Chris

Great insoles save 1 tiny thing

These insoles are incredible. They mold EXACTLY to your foot when you mold them as per the instructions and stand normally as you would daily. Do not attempt to correct your posture too much as you will cause some pain in your knees etc, so remail natural. My only complaint, which isn't a complaint b/c I didn't think it through when I purchased them....they stink after a while. So if the stench of your feet is offensive, get the moisture wicking version (which I plan to buy next time)

Malcolm

I wish I had found them years ago

The Sole is simply fantastic and I wish I had found them years ago. A 140km ride and not a grumble at all from knees or hip. It's amazing. Usually after a long ride like that I have to take a couple of prescription anti inflammatories just to ease things along in recovery. But the Sole ensured a "perfect" fit and pedal stroke which meant, almost unbelievably, that neither during the session or once home and recovering I had no discomfort. Another big hurdle they've passed is the "killer" turbo sessions my coach has me doing. Sitting on a static bike for two hours is never fun and in fact has caused me even more discomfort due to the lack of all round movement. Once again the Sole seems to be the bit of magic I have been missing. I honestly could not think higher of them. This positive feedback is totally regardless of the great customer service etc. If they didn't work I would simply just chalk it up. What more can I say than it's a great product which works! I honestly don't know how I coped without them now.

G Mathew

The difference was night and day

The last few months, I've been experiencing the worst shin splints ever and recently started having plantar fasciitis every time I played basketball. I tried everything and my physio said I need to get orthos because my feet poronate too much. I didn't want to spend $400 so I tried out Superfeet, spenco etc until someone recommended soles. I just played my first game last week with the ultra softec and the difference was night and day. Where as I would want to get off every two minutes, this time i felt like I could play forever. Thank you SOLE.

M. Todd

The SOLE inserts far exceeded my expectations

When my son first started running Cross Country for BBMS, he had severe pain in his feet and legs from running. He had new AVIA running shoes and the coach said they were good shoes. She advised me that if the pain persisted, he would need to see a doctor. After putting the SOLE inserts into his shoes, the change was just short of miraculous! The pain was completely gone, even after 2 or 3 mile runs!! As a direct result, his times improved dramatically. The SOLE inserts far exceeded my expectations. I can't express my gratitude to you enough for making the inserts available

Unknown

I will be a customer for life

I have high arches and have suffered from heal spurs before. My prescription orthodics were starting wear and began hurting my feet. I was looking for a less expensive alternative and stumbled upon your website after reading an article on runnersworld.com. I am extremely pleased with your products and the difference it has made in my workouts. I will be a customer for life. Thanks!!!

Sam Brown

Thanks to these, I'm finally healing

After hiking for months with a heavy pack, I developed a pain in my left sole so extreme I thought I was walking on a broken foot. The doc diagnosed me with a plantar fasciitis, and said it would heal on its own as soon as I kept weight off it. But it didn't. It got better, it got worse, time and again, even after I got rid of the pack. Normal day to day walking was enough to set recovery back. I put these in my daily-wear boots and within the week I was certain that the healing had finally started. The arch support these provide made the difference. It's been a month now and most days I forget that anything had ever gone wrong. It might be another two months before the wound is completely repaired, but I haven't had a single bad day with it since getting these.

Michael Cleveland

I like 'em!

I bought these yesterday as I live in Europe and walk a lot. Add to that I am a teacher and often carry a lot of books with me going from one place to another. Often, at the end of the day, my left foot is killing me. After only one day, I can seemingly tell the difference already. It's almost the end of the day and I have no pain. If I can figure out a way to get them, I'm going to try the Sport version in my two pair of cycling shoes and then possibly my running shoes as well.

Dan Morse

After starting with the SOLEs I've seen a ~70% - 80% decrease in the PF /heel pain

Following the 2008 Steamboat Marathon, I developed very bad posterior tibial tendonitis which sidelined my running. The resulting weight gain, perhaps combined with my age, turned into a fierce case of plantar fasciitis which I feared may end my running. Most testimonials say the same thing, but I tried just about everything short of surgery and was just to the point of trying the cortizone shot. Shoe inserts I tried, but which did not work for me, include most over-the-counter ones, "Heel That Pain" ones (which didn't) and "Good Feet" store ones. After starting with the SOLEs I've seen a ~70% - 80% decrease in the PF /heel pain and it is no worse than it was during training and completion of the 3 previous marathons. I am finally running and I can't say the improvement is 100% due to the SOLEs, but they have made a difference that other inserts did not. The combination of calf and hamstring stretching, lifting (loading) and some PT recommended exercises with the SOLE inserts has made the difference.

Unknown

I first purchased these for my snowboarding boots

I first purchased these for my snowboarding boots as I the outside of my ankle had too much pressure in my boots. After I put in the footbeds, that pain went away almost entirely. I have high arches, and I don't even mold the footbeds. I feel like I could use even higher arches on the footbeds to make me even more comfortable.

Zac

Brought back the joy of running

A great product. Had recurring knee pain which then led to hip discomfort. I was skeptical but ordered the insoles based on comments on runnersworld.com. Am very glad I did! Received them yesterday, performed the heat molding, and had my second run in them this morning. No pain! Great support. Brought back the joy of running. Thank you!

Matt

I am hooked

I have been using my Custom Footbeds for about 2 years now and I am hooked! I am a Volunteer Firefighter, and a full-time machine operator in a local factory. I have Footbeds in my work boots, my station boots, and my firefighting boots. Whether its the long hours on my feet in the factory, or the harsh conditions that we firefighters face, my feet are always the last thing to start hurting. I have talked to many of my friends and family, and everyone says the same thing, "Once my feet start hurting, I'm done!" I say the same thing, but now I'm able to perform for a longer time before I'm ready to take a break. Thank you for making such a wonderful product, and I look forward to the next generation of your SOLE products.

My legs feel fine and I can run even more

I only recently started running, and while I am in good shape from surfing, my legs were not completely up to the task. I would get shin splints and just generally various sore muscles and such. Since I started wearing your soles, my legs feel fine and I can run even more.

Garvey Allisen

Plantar Fasciitis

I have never had foot problems my entire life; but recently have been diagnosed with the very painful Plantar Fasciitis. My Physio recommended custom footbeds; but I tried Soles first to see if they would help. All of my symptoms are gone in less that 3 weeks of wearing Soles. I have just ordered 5 more pairs for all of my shoes and a pair of flip flops - I dont want that pain again.

Brad

My foot pain has almost completely disappeared

I saw this in the base exchange, and thought the design would be great for my feet. I was very surprised at how much it helped. My foot pain has almost completely disappeared, and my feet are actually more comfortable when I am wearing my boots with the SOLE in it.

Tony Davies

The best thing I bought myself in years

i've just ended my first days work with my new sole innersoles in my steel toecaped booots and can hand on heart say there the best thng i bought myself in years,ive spent hundreds of pounds on other innersoles from shops and off ebay trying to ease the pain in my foot and knees, after having them in my boots for 8 hours iv noticed my left foot is not aching and i noticed my knees are not aching throuh them grinding, i ony hope the pain relief continues. i hope i can get a pair for my training shoes and 1 day be able to go back the gym pain free

Kenenth

It has been a pleasure dealing with the "SOLE" company

I must say that it has been a pleasure dealing with the "SOLE" company. Foot related problems will change your motivation, ability to train, your ability to play with your children. I am a rangemaster/swat operator for a police department in southern california. As a result of that I am on my feet alot during the day. After visiting several foot doctors in my town a friend told me about "SOLE" footbeds and how much he liked them. I bought a pair the next day and have to say I believe I will have a pair of these in every shoe I wear. Thanks.

I was suffering from Morton's Neuroma

I was suffering from Morton's neuroma, and a running shoe store in Oregon recommended your footbeds. That was 4 years ago and I now buy a pair of soles at least every 6 mo. My husband now uses them and I recommended them to my sister, who is a Doctor of Physical Therapy and a triathlon coach. Thanks a ton!

The sole sandals have really helped

I've always had to were orthotics, and was unable to were flip flops for any extended period. The sole sandals have really helped. I also bought a pair for my boyfriend who has plantar fasciitis and he is loving them. He can get up in the morning without pain.

Happy feet, back & knees!

I have wide feet with high arches and insteps and I have always had trouble with shoes fitting properly. I've had long time lower back pain and a bad knee that's recently made my hip joint act up. My sister was visiting (see Susan from Santa Fe review below) and showed me her ultra insoles and raved about them. I ordered a pair which arrived last week and I'm completely sold on them! I've just returned to your web site and ordered two more pairs for myself and one for my husband to try. After one week of wearing your ultra softec insoles my stiff knee is much better, my back ache is nearly gone and I noticed yesterday that my hip doesn't hurt any more! Thank you for a great product!

Susan Herdman

Bravo!

My physical therapist recommended these Sole footbeds while treating me for arthritis in my knees. He noted that I have high arches, and felt that these inserts might help with my foot pain as well as my knee pain. I was very skeptical as I had been fitted for custom orthotics by a podiatrist several years ago, and those inserts only added pain to the balls of my feet, for a cost of $300! But I tried these Sole inserts anyway. Unbelievable! The relief was so immediate, and has continued on. We just took a three week trip, and spent much time walking in New York City. Unforgiving pavement no problem. I am recommending Sole footbeds to my two children who are runners and to my sister who also has foot and knee pain. Very grateful, Sue from Santa Fe

Barbara

I desparately needed some lasting and quality support

I was waiting for my custom orthotics to be refitted but trying to walk without any support caused my arches so much pain! I had tried the drug store variety insoles but nothing worked. Having Marfan's Syndrome ( genetic ligament disorder), I desparately needed some lasting and quality support. When I was shown the SOLE product I was hesitant, but once I had them in my shoes I could not have been happier! They are so wonderful and amazingly great for personal foot/arch support. I can not tell you how much pain relief they truly delivered for me!! Thank you.

Joni

I just love the sandals

I have rhumetoid arthritis. My feet are sore most of the time. I have a very hard time walking in shoes. I noticed that my arch in my foot was falling. I need support. My doctor told me about your company. So I phoned and was so pleased with the help I got over the phone. The girl I spoke to was so helpful and very nice. I just love the sandals. I can walk quite well and will definately buy some insoles for my shoes. Thank you so very much for the wonderul service and great sandals. I have told many people about your company.

They make my feet feel a lot better

I have had Plantar Fascitis for several years. It is hard to find sandals and shoes that work for me. I need a really strong arch, and these sandals work. I wear them around the house all of the time like slippers, and they make my feet feel a lot better! I will buy more in the future!

Tina

I am like a preacher when I tell everyone about your products!

I have to add that my friends and co-workers laugh that my 'new religion' has SOLE! I am like a preacher when I tell everyone about your products! I have been in constant pain for over 5 years and, while I am not pain-free, my feet felt better leaving work than they did going in to work on the first wearing! After about 3 weeks I cut my pain meds by half and had enough energy to DO things with my grandkids without having to rest every few minutes or take more meds. You are WONDERFUL!

Mike

I thought my days of being active were over

I cannot believe the pain relief i got after the first run I did with the SOLE Dean K. heat moldable insoles, I am a Disabled veteran from the United States Marine Corps, and wearing 2 special back supports ( 3 major spinal operations and shrapnel in my leg) I thought my days of being active were over, trying all kinds of insoles(too no avail)I tried these Insoles and WOW,I don't limp back home after a run, I smile alot-I mean ALOT less pain, my morale is higher and my activity level is awesome, Thanks Again SOLE,but sorry I must put the Credit to my GOOD LORD First, but you came thru with and Blue Ribbon Also !!! AWESOME-!!!!!!

Adam Elliosn

Great investment

I was in so much pain while training for a marathon that I went to a podiatrist. He fitted me with stiff, custom orthotics to manage arthritis in my foot and told me not to run again. When I quizzed him about exercise, he told me that if an exercise did not cause discomfort, I was free to pursue it. Thus emboldened, I decided to see whether Sole inserts for my moderate-support running shoes would let me continue running. They were a breeze to mold, are far more comfortable than the flimsy inserts that came with the shoes, and--woo hoo!--I can run again without pain. I won't push it, no more than 6-7 miles max, but but being able to continue to indulge in my 40+ year obsession with running is a great gift. I just bought two more pairs for other shoes. Great product!

David

His feet feel much better

I have already reccomended them to a co-worker at work because we work 12 hour shifts on concrete floors and he was having foot problems. He has already received his footbeds and is wearing them at work now and tells me his feet feel much better.

Rich Bradley

WOW!!

I have always been a bit skeptical of reviews that appear for product, but if you have been like me and purchased expensive custom orthodics for plantar fascitis, etc., go no further. These are the best, especially for the money. If there was a ten star designation I would give them it.

Mary

With your footbeds I can play tennis, hike and just enjoy my active life

I Have your soles in ALL MY SHOES Without your product I can not even walk without foot pain and other related pain up my leg and into my hip. With your footbeds I can play tennis, hike and just enjoy my active life. Before discovering SOLE I had tried every footbed I found but was always in pain as they did not work for me. I Bless the day I found you!!! I am so thankful for your footbeds. THANK YOU so much

Not Given

Absolutely love them

Absolutely love them. The sandal is awesome to wear and I have no pain if I wear them instead of going barefoot

Chris

I was at first very skeptical. Not any more

I love your product. As a future podiatric physician with a specialty in biomechanics and sport medicine, I was at first very skeptical. Not any more. Sure, they may not be able to correct the most extreme of foot biomechanical problems, but they're very, very good none the less. If you ever need a podiatrist to consult or just to spread the good word, I'd be honored. We have a trail marathon coming up soon, and then a few mountains to climb this winter. Can't wait to put my Sole's into those boots!

Mike Graziano

Thanks to SOLE products and our good LORD in heaven and DK+ insole I CAN COPE!!!

Thanks to SOLE products and our good LORD in heaven and DK+ insole I CAN COPE!!! Today I received me Dean Karnazes custom insoles, I did mold them perfectly in the oven and fit them into my running shoes- very easy to do! I am a disabled Marine Corps Veteran (shot in the lower back, and received shrapnel in my legs in 1982 in Beirut Lebanon). After years of feeling sorry for myself and letting depression take hold of my life 2 years ago I set out to start running again. I started out slow with 3 back and hip supports, and tried hundreds of insoles- they really never made my run fun. BUT TODAY... I ran 90% pain free 12 miles to be exact! SOLE inserts are awesome! My feet didn't kill me, my back was okay, and my knees were good too! You have a great product which I would endorse to any athlete or anyone who just walks around. I almost cried when I got back from my run, I can't thank these DK+ insoles enough. Your product brought back a sense of pride and hapiness to do what I really enjoy- running! My two sons who are in high school shake their heads in disbelief that I go for a 10 mile runs now. My wife and my boys mother is serving in the US Army and is deployed in Iraq, and I write her and tell her that the running is going great. My running also helps me cope with her being deployed in a dangerous place. I have been spreading the word about your great product. Thank you and keep up the great insoles! Regards Mike

5 Star Insoles

I have suffered from Shin Splints for around two years on and off and have tried just about everything to get rid of them, physio treatment, resting and purchasing expensive custom made orthotics (that give me blisters). I refused to stop playing football at only 25. I stumbled upon these on the internet and after purchasing the insole I find that they offer the same support as the custom made orthotics if not better for a fraction of the price. Used these for the second time last night in my first league match and thankfully no blisters and no shin pain. Hopefully the end of my shin splints! Many Thanks to everyone at Sole for the fantastic insoles.

Judy

I've noticed major improvements in my feet

I've been having trouble with plantar faciatis for a year now. I've used a night boot, done exercises, taken anti-inflammatories, worn podiatrist-made inserts. Then I got my SOLE sandals, and I've noticed major improvements in my feet. I am also thrilled to have foot support when walking on the beach.

Woodworker (Las Vegas)

Imagine my surprise when the pain in my back went away after just a week or two of using your insoles

I'm a woodworker, in fact, I just started a woodworking school here in Las Vegas. That means I'm in steel-toed boots, walking around on concrete floors, for much of my day. I've had problems with my back when I awake each morning for years. As the shoes I'm wearing get older and the soles wear, this pain gets worse. My partner suggested I try your insoles in my work boots. Wow! Imagine my surprise when the pain in my back went away after just a week or two of using your insoles in my shoes. I've experienced that pain for years, and just thought it came from having a "bad" back. Now I realize it originated from something completely different.

Mike

Have definitely improved my cycling

SOLE custom footbeds have definitely improved my cycling. i can go on long (greater than 50 mile) road rides without fear of uncomfortable foot pain. i can also tighten my cycling shoes properly, resulting in less movement of my foot inside the shoe, allowing me to pedal and climb much more efficiently. Thanks for making these footbeds!

Tina

I have had custom orthotics from my foot surgeon but they only provided minimal relief

I have had chronic foot pain since 2001(due to a broken navicular that refuses to heal & fallen arches). I have had custom orthotics from my foot surgeon but they only provided minimal relief. Your product is the ONLY insole that I have found that not only lessened the pain but actually has made my foot feel progressively better each day I wear it. I gave the insoles 2 weeks of constant wear before I contacted you, just to make sure they were really helping. Now I have been telling everyone at my job about them! I have been able to cut back on my pain medications (otc & perscription) and even contacted my GP and foot surgeon to let them know about you. I just wish I found you sooner.

Joy Salberg

Painfree

I have been running for over 15 years and just recently been diagnosed with plantar Faciitis. I started running in Soles mediums and now run pain free and was able to train and complete a marathon. Won't ever run without them again. Great product

PJ

Awesome!!

I am a Naval Flight Officer, and bought these inserts to put in my flight boots. By far one of the betrter footwear decisions I've ever made. The inserts got me through a deployment to Afghanistan and are about to go for a second. The inserts made my boots infinitely more comfortable and have virtually eliminated my foot and knee pain from walking on unfinished surfaces. I just got another pair of flight boots and plan on getting another pair of inserts to go in them.

Matt

These sandals work better than anything I have tried before

Awesome product. I am in Rome Italy on vacation now and walking 10 miles a day in these flips - I am walking on concrete, cobblestones, and many uneven surfaces. I have low arches, mortons foot and these sandals work better than anything I have tried before. My back feels great - no knee issue and I am a big 300lb guy! WOW!

angelina musto

fantastic

These are by far the best pair of flips or shoes i've ever owned. I tore my plantar, and walking has been painful ever since. However wearing these shoes, i can walk without pain! Love them Love them Love them. Can't wait to buy another pair in a different color!

Curtis Driver

Better than custom

As a Physician Assistant and Athletic Trainer in the US Army I see soldiers with foot pain and overuse injuries everyday. With these footbeds I have gotten soldiers back to full activity faster than with custom orthotics costing 4-5X as much. I wouldn't use any orthotic myself than sole. Curtis Driver PA-C, ATC

Tiffany

Best $$ spent on flip flop sandals to date

I was diagnosed with sesamoiditis in addition to being completely flat footed. Therefore most shoes without backs or without sturdy bottoms irritated my toes. My condition improved over the last few months by wearing support shoes (e.g. Danskos), but I was going to need something for summer. I am a flip flop wearer, without a doubt, and was having a hard time deciding if I was going not wear flip flop sandals all summer or suffer through the pain. Luckily, when I read about your sandals, I decided that it was worth the $70 to try them. Best $$ spent on flip flop sandals to date. :)

Rich Guerra

Na I can't believe it

I work in a busy Emergency room, these inserts have eliminated back pain and foot pain. I am a big man, without pain..thank you very much

Sole footbeds

my fisrt Sole footbeds is approx. 3years old, since that time I put Sole footbeds in every boot for my sports activies- alpineturing, mountain runnig. I especially apreciated them in hard plastic boot, last 3 years I dont feel the pain sole even after 8-12 hour of skiing and climbing, I'm very satisfied and recomend Sole for my friends in our community.

Robert Chatillion

I will never go back to flat sandals again

I will never go back to flat sandals again. My feet and back love the support of the Sole design. Well done! Nice logo too.

Emma Beasley

Oh my word, lovely flips!

I ran the London Marathon a few weeks ago, and promptly placed my feet into a pair of cheap flip flops. That, was a huge mistake that caused me extreme anguish, and a flash back to the shin splits and PF I experienced during last summers running season. The only regret I have is that I didn't buy the Sole flips sooner, and have them to wear after the London Marathon. Thank you for making such a comfortable flip that I can wear all day, and not take away from my summer of running.

MICHELLE GRAHAM

I can wear sandals again!

I have flat feet, so would be in pain for days if I wore any type of sandals or flipflops. Always use the Your Sole inserts in my shoes. Now I can wear them all the time - PAIN FREE! Worth every cent! I have two pairs now....more to follow too!

Ron Califf

Best Footbed on the Market!!

I am a Retired US Army veteran and Volunteer Firefighter/EMT-Basic and I suffered with Plantar Fasciitis for many years. I purchased a set of Spenco moldable insoles and they didn't work for beans!! While on a shopping trip to Mt. Home AFB I found these SOLE footbeds, I took them home popped them in the oven and fitted them for my feet. I am now pain free. Just like "American Express" I don't leave home without them!! These are The Best Footbeds on the Market!!

Michael Kelley

fantastic product

I was a little skeptical that this product would help with my plantar fasciitis, but I thought I'd give it a try. I don't run as much as Dean Karnazes does (obviously), but recently after upping my mileage to about 25 miles per week I developed some severe pain in the heel and bottom of my right foot. I made an appointment with a podiatrist but wasn't able to get in for 2 weeks. So in the meantime I ordered a pair of these insoles. Shipping was very fast and after convincing my wife that I wasn't nuts, I put these in the oven and gave them a try. After no running at all for 2 weeks, I put these in my running shoes and went out for a 4 mile run. There was very minimal foot pain. Two days later, I went for a 6 mile run with no pain at all. Now I'm getting close to the 25 miles per week and am still having no issues. The longest I've run with these so far is 11 miles with no foot discomfort at all. These insoles are fantastic and I will definitely purchase another pair once these wear out. Thank you, Sole!

Paulette Best

Saved My Vacation!

I had used the sport soles for a couple of years and was already a firm convert to Sole. With a vacation in the Mediterranean looming, I saw that Sole was coming out with their first sandals! I was really excited, as I wasn't looking forward to having to wear tennis shoes all the time on holiday. I had given up the thought of ever having sandals (much less flip-flops) that could give me the support I need to alleviate the plantar faciatis and painful neuromas I have in both feet. The Flips weren't even shipping yet, but I paid for my pair. As the vacation got closer I was really worried that I wouldn't get them in time, so I sent an email. Imagine my surprise when I received a call saying that they would overnite them to me right away! I'm really happy to say that my vacation was amazing, and I know it wouldn't have been as carefree had it not been for my Sole Flips. LOVE THEM! (Ordering my 2nd pair!)

Teresa Baerg

Miracle Cure!

I developed plantar fasciitis within days of moving into our new house that has a lot of tile flooring. The doctor told me I needed to be wearing shoes in the house, so I put my Sole sandals on, and within minutes, the pain went completely away! The pain had been quite severe, to the point of limping around the house, and it went away immediately, and has not returned! These sandals are a must-have for anyone with tile floors. They are worth every penny!! Thank-you!! I cannot say enough about how thrilled I am with them. They are my "miracle cure!"

Dianna MacPhee

Very painful case of Plantar Fasciitis

I have had a persistent and very painful case of Plantar Fasciitis for almost two years. It got so bad that I finally gave in and had surgery a little over a month ago. The pain was back almost immediately so I began my regime of buying every product that promised to help. I am so thankful that my first purchase was a pair of Sole foot beds. I felt relief almost instantly, so much so, that I just bought another pair and a pair of sandals. Thank you is all that is left to say.

Javin Berg

PJ

I can not say enough good about sole footbeds. I am 41 and a triathlete. At my age my body has overcome some significant aches and pains from many miles of running. I have been using Sole footbeds for four years now and feel not problems from my feet on up which is a big change from previous years. I did purchase these footbeds with the ipod carrier and sadly to say I did not like them. I could feel the difference in the footbed with the port for the gadget and it was annoying. I returned them and traded them in for the signature series and am again very pleased. I think it is best to leave the gadgets out of your shoes however it was a good concept.

Kendall Peterson

Great for Work

I purchased the insoles for my work boots as I have had terrible pain in my feet. I work in manufacturing and walk on concrete floors for approimately 50 hrs a week. These insoles have virtually eliminated the pain. My history says the insoles maintained their cushioning for about 6-8 months and the arch never dropped.

Sheila

I can work out, walk and be on my feet all day

Please explain your foot-related problems prior to purchase: A. I could hardly walk as my feet were putting out the alighment of my knees(and the rest of my body). I was sent to Poditarists and had more than one pair of orthotics made. some of them helped a bit but a lot of them made it so I could hardly walk at all and had so much more pain.This was very costly also. Then I went to a Chiropracter who works on pressure points. It is a total different way of alighning ones body. When I stated seeing my Chiropracter I stopped wearing my orthopics as I would just be put into balance and my orthopics would put me right out of sorts again. But I needed something and as I had been trying out the SOLE INSOLES, I started to wear them daily. It is hard to get the thinner insoles, as Work World's mainly sell the thick ones. So thanks to the staff from Sole in Calgary for mailing me out a pair of red Soles. I can work out, walk, and be on my feet all day and my legs get tired but I do not have the knee pain as the knee is getting stronger. The doctors kept telling me I was just getting old and to expect the pain and knees going. But I kept thinking NO they are wrong. There has to be something out there and it is such a simple thing, A insole that works. More people have to learn not to give up when they are in pain and in there heart know that there knees are turning in because of the way there feet are or there back or hips or neck or so many parts of the body hurt or you are taking pain killers just to get through the day. Begin at your Feet and if at first you are not getting any leadway, don't give up. Keep trying. Go to the Sole Site, or just try a pair, often the body has to be put into alighment first then with the insoles life will begin. And I feel the insoles should be sold in some shoe stores. Often the sales clarks get to know your feet. Find a establised store and get to know them like you do a Doctor.

Andrew Leibowitz

Couldn't Skate Without Them

These footbeds are tremendous! I have a pair in my CCM hockey skates and my K2 inlines, and I cannot imagine ever skating without them again. They have improved my ice skating by giving me more power and a much better feel for the ice; and have aleviated the foot pain I used to experience after only a few miles on inline skating. I can't wait for the coming spring as I plan to skate my first marathon in May.

Rick VanDerWegen

Awesome

I was having alot of pain in the arch of my foot for 7 or 8 months. I went to the docter and I was told that I had flat feet and was suffering from Plantar Fasciitis. He wanted me to get prescription ortho's. After being looked at by the Physical Therapist he recommened that I give the Sole Softec Regulars a try. I was amazed at the relief that this product has given me. I ordered another pair along with a pair of your plantinum sandles. Awesome product.

Steve Gray

Game On!

This SlimSport footbeds turned out to be the ticket I needed to up my game in the local MTB Racing scene. I wore Sole's regular footbeds in my hiking boots, though never bothered to put any in my cycling shoes. And not doing so, with my flat feet, caused me serious pain after long endurance races. My knees would pay the price! Found these SlimSports to be the perfect fit for my high-end Italian made Sidi race shoes. I spinning is corrected and I haven't suffer knee pain since I started using these...a little bit of numbing in the big toes, though I blame that on the toe box of the shoe being a bit narrow. I'm constantly changing these out between my running and cycling shoes, so I definately need to pick up another pair. Thanks for a great affordable footbed that last. Not all of us have the insurance coverage to get custom footbeds made for us. -Steve

Darren Beilstein

Great support and cushioning

Last year, after over a 10 year break, I started training and racing in triathlons again. I developed calf pain after running a half marathon and was not able to fully rehab teh injury for over 2 years, despite being a physical therapist myself and seeing several sports medicine and orthopedic specialists. Within one week of use, the support and cushioning of the DK orthotics was apparent and my discomfot began to decrease. I ahve worked with several different orthotics/insoles over my physical therapy career and I do not hesitate to recommend SOLE products to my clients. Darren Beilstein, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT

Garron

Huge difference after one week

I am very pleased with my SOLE purchase. My right heal was really beginning to be a problem. I bought two pair of SOLE footbeds and wear one in my work shoes and the other in my running/walking shoes and there was a huge difference after one week.

Paula

Working on Concrete Floors

I've had feet problems for years. I found your product locally and had been using them for a while. But with this place going out of business I thought I was sunk. I work on concrete floors all day long and was at a point of not being able to work much longer because of the pain. I found the guys home address and called him at home. He told me of the web site. And I'll keep on buying this product. Please don't change anything. With the soles and exercise I'm still going strong. Thanks.

Richard

The sole product I bought has worked wonders

Planter Faciitis (SP) which wouldn't go away. a friend recommended these and sent me the website. The sole product I bought has worked wonders. They were very easy to conform to the foot and have fixed my sore heel problem to where I can now play competitive tennis with no problem. Thanks for this product.

Nicole

Far Exceeded my Expectations

My company moved to a new building in June 2008. The floor are hard concrete. I began having foot pain(plantar fasciitis) in my right foot. After a few months I began to walk with a limp and by the end of my shift my ankle was swelling and in alot of pain. The price was reasonable. I felt I would try this before paying hundreds of dollars on custom orthotics. Having two coworkers highly recommend the product also played a big role. After wearing the footbeds for two weeks, I no longer was limping around at work. I could walk normal. Before I was trying to walk without my heel touching the ground because the pain was so great. After a month of wearing the footbeds, my ankle no longer swelled. After 5 weeks, I no longer had to wear my ankle brace. This product far exceeded my expectations.

Lisa

Twelve Hour Days

I work in an emergency room department as a physician assistant and am on my feet 12 hour days. Your inserts are life savers. I recommend your product to other co-workers and patients. Thanks.

Ken

Recommended to help with lower extremity problems

I'm a physical therapist and have made orthotics in the past, your product is very good and I recommend them to most of my patients with lower extremity problems.

Marcos

The DKs are Awesome

i had sesamoiditis in my right foot... underneath my big toe. i'm addicted to tennis, so this was a serious problem, and it just refused to heal... i finally started looking into getting a custom orthotic, but i don't have the best health insurance right now, so the cost would have been a bit much. i did some research online, and your insoles were recommended on a message board. i order a pair of DK insoles and they were amazing. I ordered a second pair, and i don't wear shoes unless i have them in there. My foot isn't completely healed yet, but I've made a lot of progress since i started using the SOLE DK and i experience no pain or discomfort at all while i'm wearing them. i absolutely love your product. the DKs are awesome. i will definitely buy a few more and have wholeheartedly recommended them to a few people.

Terri

Running Comfortably

I have used your product for a few years now and am completely sold on how it has improved the pain I used to experience due to flat/pronated feet. I am a runner and your product has allowed me to continue running comfortably. Thank you for a wonderful product!

Cheryl Peterson

Thank you for such an incredible product

I was spending $40.00 per vist to the chriopractor once a week before I got my sole insoles. I have not been in 3 months now. I wear them in every shoe that I can, and I have the flip flops for the summer. Thank you for such an incredible product.

Carol

The SOLE Custom Footbeds have helped enormously

I could hardley walk because my feet hurt so much. My friend told me about SOLE custom footbeds and where to get them. I think my feet were hurting because I had my knee replaced in July after years of suffering with my knee out of place, so my feet probably had been compensating for it. Now that my knee is normal, my feet aren't. The SOLE custom footbeds have helped enormously. I still have heel pain and my feet tend to hurt when they are tired at night, but at least I can walk without the paid I had been experiencing. Thank you.

Kristina

My feet were happier than they had ever been before

I am an electrician. I had a hard time finding work boots that were comfortable. I was shopping at a Redwing store and the employee suggested I try your insoles (redwing branded) instead of new boots. I put them in, without warming and fitting, and my feet were happier than they had ever been before. I have had those insoles for about 3 years now, and I was sick of changing them from one pair of shoes to another so I went to order more and found out that they are actually your product and so I ordered 3 pairs directly from you, so I can put them in a variety of shoes. When I don't have your insoles in, my feet get sore quickly.

Michelle

Love them!

I have plantar fasciitis and I had the footbeds. I love flip flops and that was one of the things I missed most. I had such great luck with the footbeds I decided to try the flip flops, and let me tell you I was not disappointed. I can wear those and my foot doesn't hurt at all. My Mom and Aunt also have plantar fasciitis and they bought a pair and had the same results. I highly recommend these!

Jessica

No further issues with footpain

I have had plantar fascitis in the past. Initially I wore a custom orthotic, however, as soon as the Sole product became available I have been using the Sole footbed. I have had no further issues with foot pain since wearing the Sole footbed.

Vicki Elliott

Excellent

I started with the footbeds. I researched online to see what nurses and people who stood for along time at their job liked as far as support. This is how I found the footbeds. Amazing! I stand 8 hours at my job. My heels used to get so painful, I couldn't stand on them. These footbeds made the difference. I have worn the same pair for a year now and thought they would "flatten" out after time, but they haven't. I ordered myself and my husband the sandals to try. I usually don't like the piece between the toes. Surprisingly, I don't notice that piece with these sandals. Same wonderful support as the footbeds. My husband will no longer wear any other sandal, only the Sole sandals. He was reluctant about the price of them, but now that he's worn them...no other sandal will do! Be prepared to be spoiled and not want anything else on your feet.

Randall Sparks

Army boots and plantar fasciitis

I have plantar fasciitis. I require custom orthotics, but insurance companies suck swampwater. My custom orthotics fell apart so I tried the Sole brand insoles after finding them in the PX. These things fit like a glove, hold arches where they need to be and all my foot pain has gone. I have about 6 pairs of these things and I'm sold on sole.

Juliet Farmer

I've already sent several friends your way

Your insoles have allowed me to run pain-free. Apparently the insoles I used to use didn't cut it and when I saw a podiatrist I found out why: unusually high arches. He suggested two things, custom insoles or (the next best thing) your insoles. I ordered yours, they came several days later, and I was off and running! I've already sent several friends your way...Thank You.

Sara

No IT band pain!

I wanted to let you that I got these orthodics because of serious IT band friction syndrome. Prescription orthodics were just way out of my price range , and SOLE footbeds were recommended to me. Well, I put them to the ultimate test this past Sunday, running the Mardi Gras Marathon with the. I had NO IT band pain! It was fantastic! Thanks for your great product. I was talking about them with runner throughout the whole course, and I got an email today from one of them saying she had placed here order already.

Run longer and pain free

I now run longer and pain free thanks to SOLE Custom Footbeds.

Your feet and legs will thank you

A must for anyone who is on their feet! I'm a runner and started having foot pain in various areas. This SOLE Custom Footbeds solved the aches and pains. My hip problem also disappeared. I own 2 pair and wear one for my workouts and one for everyday wear. Your feet and legs will thank you.

I am now pain free once again

I am a 52 year young runner here in the desert of Arizona. I have been running since high school and still enjoy the competition of road, track and trail running. I win or place in my age group most of the time. Yes, I have had my down times. Some due to over training and some due to "I'll just sleep a little longer." Recently I developed a Metatarsal injury on my left foot. I went through the routine of resting, icing and stretching without success. I thought for sure that I would have to take an extended time off from running. I tried various inserts to provide more protection for the foot. I even had a custom insert made by an orthopedic doctor. None of these attempts provided the protection I needed. On a visit to my local Performance Footwear running store, I noticed the "Your SOLE" display. I thought I had to give them a try. Not only did SOLE Custom Footbeds allow me to resume my normal training routine, it also allowed my metatarsal to recover and I am now pain free once again. Thank you "Your SOLE" for helping me to continue doing the sport I have loved for so long."

The sense of relief was virtually immediate

I'm an active 53-year-old living in beautiful British Columbia. I overdid it on a couple of extended hikes this past summer and developed significant foot arch pain, something I had never experienced before. Being an avid hiker, skier, and mountain biker, I was pretty bummed out. I had resigned myself to a period of enforced rest and the purchase of expensive orthotics when the folks at my local Valhalla Pure store suggested I give the Sole footbed a try. I did, and I'm not making this up when I tell you the sense of relief was virtually immediate. I installed the footbeds in my running shoes on Friday, wore them around the house Saturday, and went golfing with my son on Sunday, pain free! I plan to get another pair for my ski boots as well. Thank you."

SOLE really excels!

My husband had been having heel pain while running and had tried several different types of heel pads, gel soles, but had not had relief from the pain. Then another friend told us about SOLE, and we immediately ordered a pair. He noticed a big difference right away, and was so improved after a couple of weeks, that he ran in the St. Patrick's Day 10K here in D.C. and was really pleased with how he felt afterwards. I can't thank SOLE enough for helping him stay on track with his goal. He was ready to stop running, and now he's closer to accomplishing his dream of running a marathon next year. From the ease of using your website to the quality of the product, to follow-up service you provide, SOLE really excels!

Thanks for introducing a great product

I'll be 45 in a few weeks. I began running when I was 20. Like many, running has become my focus, obsession, daily routine. I currently have a 13 year streaking going of not missing a day. A few (20 - 30) of those runs were 3 miles or less due to injury/sickness, having to get my run in before an early morning flight, or dangerous weather (electrical/hail storm or -25 temps with -50 wind-chill) Most of my weeks average 45-55 miles a week. Most of these miles I run alone. I go at different times of the day due to work, travel, family events or pace, since I train at a 7:15 pace and most of my friends average 8:30 - 9:00's. I get sore if I run too often at a pace other than my own. Now you're wondering why I'm boring you with the details of my running obsession. 2003 was a difficult injury year for me. I pulled my left hamstring which resulted in aches and pains all winter. Later that summer, I strained my left thigh and soon after that I sprained my left ankle on acorns in the dark. I continued to run every day, but I felt achy and out of balance. I had been using Spenco insoles for years and decided maybe it was time for orthotics. I had stopped into Runner's Edge in St. Paul, Minnesota, and noticed your product. The feedback from the salesperson was that he had tried Sole insoles and they were great. I knew him for a while and I felt I could rely on what he said. I decided to give them a try for $40 before spending $100's on orthotics. After all, I still need to keep my streak going and the aches and pains were making it hard to get motivated. Well, needless to say, I've been using them since October '03 and I'm feeling better than I have in years. I feel more balanced and my aches are now the result of hillwork or increased distance changes! I've worn them all winter and into a second pair of shoes and they still feel good! I'm hoping to get back to my 43:00 - 44:00 - 10K times this spring (if aging the additional year doesn't slow me permanently!). Your insoles have given new life to my running and I am looking forward to a much better summer than last summer! Thanks for introducing a great product! Best wishes for a long and prosperous business for you!

I have been running pain free ever since

I am a ultrarunner and after trying just about every footbed made my search was over after being introduced to Sole ultra softec custom footbeds in 2005. I have been running pain free ever since. Sole footbeds provide the perfect combination of cushioning, arch support and excellent stability due to the low heel cup. A very durable and well designed product.

SOLE results in less fatigue

Wobble-naught CAD fitting & Myo-facts sEMG/Dartfish use Sole as a bio-feedback device. We want all our dealers to use them. Misaligned joints are very common in fitting business. Sole assist our CAD to correct alignment issues, providing pain relief & wear and tear to the body. With the correct bike setup, Sole footbeds allows the cyclists to get on the pedal stroke early and stay on it longer. We suggest the Sole due to its ability to mold to the needs of many different shoe types. You get a better inteface of shoe and human foot. The advantage is it is not made by just standing or sitting in a static position, but like "Speed balancing tires", while you pedal. After we have the cleat correct and the bike dialed to the human to the milimeter, then we have them mount the bike while in a trainer and mold the Sole while they pedal. It's that simple! The Sole footbed improves performance as it reduces the lag time of getting on the pedal storke. Using our Myo-facts sEMG/Dartfish, we teach pedaling from the arches rather than the toes or heel and the only way you can get the feedback to the brain is by having a footbed making contact w/ the arch. The skeletal muscle system is a voluntary system; that is, it needs an intact nerve supply to contract, and does so mostly as a result of conscious direction from the brain. If you can't feel your arch, you can't determine how to move your best! By using our Myo-facts sEMG/Dartfish, we can see the difference a Sole footbed makes. The electrical activity of muscles responding to nevous stimuli during human movement can be monitored with our technique call electromyography (EMG). We measure in millionths of a volt (microvolts)! The greater the intensity of contraction, or tension, the greater the electrical output. The sEMG can also reveal the declining output as muscular fatigue takes place. Without Sole, the muscles don't fire as well, and faster fatigue is the result. With the Sole, the results are the muscles start firing better and fatigue less, and pedal performance comes forth!

This is the best product I've ever seen

This is the best product I've ever seen, after having run six marathons I had to stop running due to severe knee pain. With SOLE Custom Footbeds I can now run again... pain free. In fact, I can't run without them. I wear them in all my shoes and all the staff wear them and swear by them.

Kipp Carver

I have recommended SOLE footbeds to several of my customers

Before I tried SOLE footbeds, my right foot hurt so bad I had a noticeable limp. After using the SOLE footbed, the foot pain disappeared. My golf game has also improved. I feel much more solid over the ball. I have recommended SOLE footbeds to several of my customers. They too, seem to like SOLE footbeds as much as I do. I think all shoes should have SOLE. Thanks a lot.

Ted McGreer

I've sold a pile of sandals

As a Specialty Footwear Retailer, I have access to virtually every shoe on the market. When Sole decided to launch the Platinum Sandal, I was very sceptical of an $80 sandal. In fact, I decided not to order any for my store because I felt the price was just too high. When my sales rep at Sole asked me to simply try one pair for myself, I thought, fair enough I'll test them out. Two months later, I've sold a pile of these sandals, and I've not taken my pair off my feet. Keep in mind I personally own over 300 pairs of shoes. This sandal is biomechanically perfect, great for people with or without foot pain, and is bar none the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. Another great product from Sole!

Martha B

I love my SOLEs

I love my SOLES! My plantar faciitis is much better. I have had it for two years and have tried many different orthotics and wraps. Now, I only notice foot pain when I wear dress shoes that cannot handle the SOLES. Keeping my arch in the correct position has enabled me to be on my feet much longer without pain. The dress SOLES have enabled me to use good arch support in most of my shoes.

Mike Kowalski

You have a great product

Because of a severe case of Plantar Fasciitis in 1989, I began wearing custom orthotics made by Dr. Glickman in Michigan. These are made out of a very stiff plastic material. These devices allowed me to continue to run 20-50 miles a week since 1990. During this time I completed 7 marathons including the 100th Boston. In 1999 I began look for an over the counter orthotics that would provide the same degree of protection and be more comfortable. I tried the Sorbothane full shoe insert and the SOF Flow full shoe insert with the arch support. Both were comfortable but neither provided me with the arch support I needed to run 20-35 miles a week pain free. Last November I purchased my first pair of SOLE Custom Footbeds and they have provided me the comfort and support I need to continue running pain free. From now on, any time I purchase a pair of running shoes, I will also be replacing the insert with the SOLE Custom Footbeds. This is the best my feet have felt since the mid 1980's.You have a great product that I would recommend to all my running friends.

John C. Bruner

Your footbeds have been helpful in relieving the pain from walking

I have been using your Sole Custom Footbeds since I got a free pair at the Olympic Oval. While refereeing indoor soccer this past season I developed plantar fasciitis. Your footbeds have been helpful in relieving the pain from walking. I put them in my soccer shoes and also sandals. And, I am using them in my outdoor soccer shoes. Also, while serving as a lap recorder for speed skating, I have to spend long hours standing on the ice. My sorels do not have good arch support and your footpads have enabled me to stand more comfortably in my sorels. Thank you!

Melanie Elliott

I expect to become a continued customer

I already have a pair of the SOLE Softec Ultra, which has helped me with painful plantar fascitis and a broken big toe. I just ordered the SOLE Softec Regular footbeds. I expect to become a continued customer and will definitely share info on your product with my friends and family. Thank you!

Rudy Martini

After heat molding, the footbeds fit my feet perfectly

I recently purchased the Sole footbeds and placed them in a pair of walking shoes. I have a problem with Plantar Fasciitis of the heel. Since placing the Sole footbeds into my shoes and doing a few exercises the pain in my foot began to disappear. I heated the Soles in the oven at 200 deg F as per directions. The soles fit my feet perfectly..I would certainly recommend the Sole FootBeds to anyone having problems with Bone Spurs (Plantar Fasciitis)....Yours truly,

Christine Hassard

SOLE has made a huge difference

I was recently diagnosed with plantar fasciitis and the SOLE has made a huge difference in the comfort & pain level. Thanks! I now have happy feet.

Rob Allen

I wish I had found these sooner

I just recently beat a bad case of plantar fasciitis using cortisone shots and rehab. I was also fitted for a pair of custom orthotics to help prevent a recurrence. However, due to their rigid composition, they don't fit in all of my shoes. As a result of this, I decided to buy a pair of the SOLE Softec Ultra footbeds to use as a substitute in those shoes. I've used SuperFeet, SofSol, and Hapad in the past in an attempt to alleviate general foot pain caused by standing or walking too much, but none of them ever seemed to help. Therefore, my expectations weren't very high for the SOLE footbeds...I figured I would be satisfied if all they gave me were some extra arch and heel support to help keep the plantar fasciitis at bay. However, after a couple of long days on my feet, I realized that not only had these footbeds given me the extra support I was looking for, but they also made a significant difference in the amount of general foot pain caused by too much time on my feet. I only wish I had found these sooner! Thanks!

Michael L. Schultz, M.D.

I recommend SOLE to my patients

I am a Family Physician and a runner. I was impaired from running because of plantar fasciitis after my last marathon nearly 18 months ago. I was provided with a pair or your SOLE Softec Ultra insoles by a local running shoe store. This product is truly phenomenal and allowed my return to running after all those months of pain. As a result I have now purchased an additional set so that I can have one pair at home and one at my cottage. Even though the fasciitis since has resolved, my running is so much more comfortable with these insoles, that I will continue to use them indefinitely. Moreover, I have now incorporated recommending this product to my patients that suffer from similar problems.

Amanda Thalji

I recommend them to everyone I know

I love SOLE footbeds! I have been battling plantar fascitits for some time and they have helped tremendously! After wearing the SOLE Softec Ultra footbeds inside of my gym shoes for four months I am now pain and symptom free. My parents own a restaurant and are on their feet all day so I ordered a pair for my mother and father. They too have experienced a great reduction in their leg and back pain. In fact, they are such big fans of the product, that they had me order another pair for one of their employees. I recommend them to everyone I know.

Jeremy Rhoten

I am extremely pleased with my SOLE Custom Footbeds

I am extremely pleased with my SOLE Custom Footbeds. I have pronated feet and had used custom-made orthotics in the past, but they were expensive and somewhat uncomfortable. I lost them a few years back and couldn't really justify the cost of buying new ones. I was looking online for an inexpensive alternative when I stumbled onto your product. Although I was a bit skeptical, the money-back guarantee gave me the confidence to order. I'm sure glad I did. I think they are more comfortable and just as effective as the $300 orthotics my doctor had made for me. My feet and knees are feeling much better. I have been able to jog almost pain-free for the first time in years. Even long shopping excursions with my wife are less fatiguing. Thanks for creating a great product at a great price. I can even afford to buy a separate set for different pairs of shoes.

Cheryl Black

Thank you very much for making a difference in the way I walk and work!

I bought my first pair of Sole insoles to wear inside my new workboots for heavy, recreational gardening. I saw them in a store the day I bought my new boots, and I bought them because they were stiff enough to provide support but not so bulky that they changed the way my boots fit. The fit in the arch supports my heel and has resulted in my planter fasciitis improving to the point it has virtually disappeared and I have no more pain when I get up in the morning. Initially, I thought that the price was high, but compared to custom orthotics, the price was very reasonable and once I wore them for a full day the first time with no 'breaking in' time needed, I realized they are worth much, much more. I bought another pair to put inside the shoes I will be wearing to work as school starts up in September and will necessitate me being on my feet most of the day. I have a pair in my golf shoes, and will move them to my curling shoes when that season starts up! Thank you very much for making a difference in the way I walk and work!

Steve Currie

I guess I just have to abandon the prescription orthotics

So yesterday, I went out to play, walking, 18 holes of golf. I wore my best golf shoes with the $275 prescription orthotics obtained through our podiatrist. By the 14th hole, the beginnings of my frequent plantar fasciitis pain began, and by the end of the round -- and for the rest of the day, I was quite uncomfortable. So today, I went back out for another round. I wore my back-up shoes with my Sole Slim Sport footbeds. From the first hole they felt much more comfortable. And the comfort lasted the entire round. This is a repeat experience, and I guess I just have to abandon the prescription orthotics. They just don't do the job as well as the Soles. Thanks for a great product!

Bobby G. Tindal

A great product that can be worn out of the box

I have used many off-the-shelf arch supports over the past ten years as an Orthotist for residents of Kansas. These people are soldiers and I see a variety of foot types. I average about 90 patients per week with approximately 70% having foot related problems. Most of these problems are associated with hyper-mobile joints of the foot causing a flattened arch. With most shoes or boots this flattened arch position is present due to inadequate insoles that are not conformed to every persons feet. Some of the problems are plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, shin splints, knee pain and sometimes hip and low back pain. SOLE has come up with a great product that can be worn out of the box or heat molded to fit a persons feet. These orthotics have proven to provide the contour that people need in their shoes and I often get requests for more than one pair. SOLE Custom Footbeds are a cost effective way to reduce the hyper-mobility of the feet comfortably without adjustments.

Jeff Wilkinson

I have used a lot of boot inserts both military and civilian. These are the best.

Last year at the age of 50 I rejoined the active military reserves. Prior to that time my left heel had occasionally been painful. Once I increased my exercise program it became much worse. The diagnosis was plantar fasciitis. Orthotics were suggested at a cost of $400 plus. Before purchasing the orthotics I happened to be in an AAFES (military) store. They had a display of SOLE inserts. The size nines were sold out indicating to me that they must work reasonably well. The manager said they could not keep them in stock. I don't live near a military post so I looked on line to learn more and then contacted the company directly. Everyone I have interacted with has been fantastic. I ordered a couple pair of the Ultra SOFTEC and put them in my combat boots and running shoes. Typically this kind of injury can take up to a year to correct. Since going barefoot was no longer an option I also found some foam footwear with arch support to use indoors during the summer. It has been about a year and I am now pain free. Winter is here again and I am purchasing more to outfit all my winter boots and indoor shoes. The slim version works great in dress shoes. I have used a lot of boot inserts both military and civilian. These are the best.

SOLE has changed my feet forever

I was recently down at the Boston Marathon and I talked to Matt Chestnut, one of your employees. I wanted to thank him because my feet are now 100% better thanks to him. I met Matt in the lobby of the hotel and we chatted for a while over a drink and then the topic of foot health came into play. I told him that I could hardly walk after I ran a Marathon for about 2 weeks and he mentioned SOLE. I usually use custom made orthodics but I find they are too rigid for my feet. People pushing their own product usually puts me off but he came across in a genuine fashion and I now owe him for his honest and help. I came by his booth the next day and Matt took the time to fit my shoes and explain everything further from the previous night. Matt really knew his stuff and SOLE has changed my feet forever. Thanks SOLE.

Angela Shaw

I love my new footbeds not only for how they feel, but also for the price.

I am VERY satisfied with my footbeds. I paid $300 about 5 years ago for custom made orthotics and they were worn out and me feet hurt. I found SOLE footbeds while researching another expensive orthotic that I was thinking of ordering, buy they were so expensive. I read your guarantee and decided I had nothing to lose, and a lot to gain ($). My feet weren't instantly completely pain free, but they didn't hurt any worse, I feel strongly that if I hadn't had these new inserts that I would have really been hurting after that walk. Over the next week, the pain in my feet went away and it's been 6 weeks and the pain hasn't returned! I love my new footbeds not only for how they feel, but also for the price.

Diane Cornish

I can stand and walk without crying or pain

I bought my first pair on Valentine's Day and my second pair of Sole Orthotics last month as a spare to use in my gardening shoes. I was diagnosed with Morton's Neuroma and I had severe pain while trying to stand and walk and couldn't wear any pair of shoes without whimpering. After getting 3 injections in my foot with no relief, I was finally given the name of Fit-Right Northwest to obtain a special pair of shoes. I ended up getting a pair of Brooks with a wider box. The shoes alone didn't stop the pain and discomfort but as soon as the salesperson put in my very first pair of Sole Orthotics and I tried walking, I was totally amazed at the difference. I was so happy and so thrilled that I told the salesperson I could hug him for the pain relief. He also put a little cushion on your Sole at the ball of the feet and wearing the new shoes with your orthotics since Valentine's Day has made a world of difference to me and the ability to stand and walk without crying and without pain. So I wish to say a special "Thank You" for creating such a good, wonderful, and reasonably priced orthotic. Thank You

Kathy Livingston

We can now do things that involve walking

My Husband doesn't type, so he told me to send this. Your insoles have been a God send. I prayed for him to get help. He could only work about 2 hours a day. His foot hurt so bad in the morning that he almost had to hop. Now he can work 5+ hours and doesn't hardly limp. It is night and day different. He used to say his foot was killing him. Now I hardly ever hear him complain. The doctors had x-rayed his foot and said there was nothing wrong with it. Our insurance is terrible so he didn't want to go back. He is a different person now. We can now do things that involve walking. It had hurt for several years and he was resigned to living with the pain. Now he doesn't have to. He has told everyone about your company. Thank you so much.

Michelle Graham

I have even started running again because of your product

I suffered from heel spurs, plantar fasciltis, heel pain, extreme pain for over 2 years. I went to a podiatrist and even got $400 pair of custom orthotics. Nothing helped. I would literally crawl to the bathroom some mornings because the pain was so unbearable. I had all but given up to the fact that it was something I would have to live with. My chiropractor then recommended I try your insoles. I ordered all three sizes. I was so tired of wearing tennis shoes, was hoping with your thin inserts I could wear my dress shoes again without having the pain more severe the next morning. After ONLY 3 DAYS of wearing your inserts, I had NO PAIN!!!! I still wear your Soles everyday, and can wear ALL my shoes now, and still NO PAIN!!! Wish I would have known about your product 2 years ago. I have even started running again because of your product.

Kari

I absolutely love my footbeds

I absolutely love my footbeds. These are the second pair I have purchased and for the first time in my life, my feet don't hurt after running or walking. I've had semi-custom orthodics made by a physical therapist due to my excessive pronation but they never could get them quite right and after 3 tries, I switched to my sole footbeds and have been very happy. I use them in my running shoes and casual shoes. Next I'm going to get a pair for my dress shoes and casual shoes. And I've told pretty much anyone that would listen to me about them and how much I like them. Before I used them , I didn't know that your feet didn't have to hurt!

Sandy Ainsfield

I've always loved to dance

I am 60 years old and have always loved dancing. Rhythm tap and salsa are my favorite pastimes now and I am able to dance several times a week without any pain. I thoroughly recommend the use of your "Sole Orthotics" to anyone suffering from pain from a heel spur.

Sharron Burnard

These insoles are better than sex

I wanted you to know that these insoles are better than sex. In the past year or so my feet have been killing me, my face probably looked like a prune with the pain, due only in part to high arches and insteps and over pronation of the left foot, due to poor fitting and non supporting athletic shoes by inexperienced shop staff. However, I had tried spenco and superfeet, the latter being ok, but not having any metatarsal cushioning. Now to sole orthotics, I bought a pair 3 days ago, and the relief was immediate. I now find myself running up stairs rather than creeping up like a crab to the hip pain; Enough said. "The best and better than sex" should be your slogan. Of course, just for people with foot problems. Thanks.

Barry Homan

I really love these insoles

I really love these insoles. I have had bad foot problems and since wearing these my feet feel much better. This is why I'm buying a second pair...Thanks.

Chrystal Strauss

Thanks so much for such a GREAT product and the prompt service

I've suffered from foot pain for a short time, but long enough to know that if your feet hurt, you hurt all over!! After being on my feet all day on cement I was ready to try anything. Found your site on the net and decided to give it a try. Ordered them online and watched the FedEx site for delivery time. Couldn't wait to try them. The day they were due to arrive we had a snow storm here in Iowa and I had just presumed they wouldn't be delivered due to the weather conditions. That night I checked the FedEx sight one last time and to my surprise it said they were on my front porch !! I couldn't wait to get them on and after only the second day with them-- I hate to take them off!!! They feel so good and my feet don't hurt!! Thanks so much for such a GREAT product and the prompt service.

Dr. William McDonald

I find that I use your products for just about everything related to mechanics

I find that I use your products for just about everything related to mechanics - plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, but I also found that I'm able to utilize these and modify them often for types of tendonitis problems, shins splints, and mechanical types of things like neuromas and bunions and hammer toes. I'm able to add some padding to them and also mold them a little bit to the patient. I think they've held up very well. I've been using them since last summer at the APMA show and I think they're an excellent over-the-counter product.

I just find these SOLES the best for my knees and foot pain

We use a lot less Motrin now!

I want to add another sport to your list - soccer. These SOLE inserts have been great to put in my teenagers' soccer cleats. They both experienced a lot of heel pain from running in cleats all of the time & we've found that even the best soccer cleats just don't give good support. The SOLE inserts have totally eliminated the foot pain that was just part of the soccer season for them. We use a lot less Motrin now!

David Herlihy

I am very pleased with my SOLE footbeds

I am very pleased with my SOLE footbeds. I had tendonitis in my left transverse arch from going too fast on a fairly steep downhill hike this fall. The pain, and fear of further injury, had me pretty much sidelined. I fitted the SOLE footbeds and immediately was back to walking 30 min. each morning and each evening without pain. Thanks for a great product.

Melba Barcena

My feet would hurt so bad that I could hardly walk

My Doctor recomended your product and I have been very pleased with it. My feet would hurt so bad that I could hardly walk. On one occasion they were hurting so bad that I had to use a walker just to get out of bed and walk around. Then the Doctor suggested that I get your insoles for my shoes and they are working great. Thank you for your great insoles.

Kipp Carver

My golf game has improved

Before I tried SOLE footbeds, my right foot hurt so bad I had a noticeable limp. After using the SOLE footbed, the foot pain disappeared. My golf game has also improved. I feel much more solid over the ball. I have recommended SOLE footbeds to several of my customers. They too, seem to like SOLE footbeds as much as I do. I think all shoes should have SOLE. Thanks a lot.

MG Yukich

Your product has cured me

Before your product I could hardly walk without great shooting pain in my feet. Your product has cured me. i feel like superman with your insoles. i refuse to wear a pair of shoes without your product. you people are truly sent from God.

Marjorie

My foot doctor recommended your footbeds

I have/had tendinitis in both feet...don't remember the name of the particular tendon. It had been bothering me for MONTHS and my foot doctor recommended your footbeds. They have made a BIG difference! I still feel a bit of discomfort but if I had to give a number I'd say it's 90% better! THANK you!

Marsha Voight

Thank you so much for this product

I purchased a pair of the heatable soles yesterday on the advice of my orthopedic surgeon. Here is some background about me. I have worked in a factory for 30 years. My feet are shot!! I have arthritis in both feet and ankles. I have fallen arches so badly that I have had to have foot fusion on the right foot. I now have a 3 inch screw from my heel to my ankle. I have had joint replacement on the great toe of the left foot. I also have had polio as a child. I have lived with foot pain for over 35 years....until NOW! I worked all day today and I have NO PAIN in my right foot at all. My left one is sore because I had surgery just four weeks ago. This is a real miracle for me. I have been thanking God all day for these soles. You may think I am exaggerating but you have no idea how much pain I have been in until now. I went to the store and bought a second pair right after work!!! Thank you so much for this product. I have told all my co-workers that have foot pain about these soles.

I lost them a few years back and couldn't really justify the cost of buying new ones. I was looking online for an inexpensive alternative when I stumbled onto your product. Although I was a bit skeptical, the money-back guarantee gave me the confidence to order. I'm sure glad I did. I think they are more comfortable and just as effective as the $300 orthotics my doctor had made for me. My feet and knees are feeling much better. I have been able to jog almost pain-free for the first time in years. Even long shopping excursions with my wife are less fatiguing. Thanks for creating a great product at a great price. I can even afford to buy a separate set for different pairs of shoes.

I'm hooked

I have worn Superfeet for years in all my shoes. After trying your product for three days, my incipient plantar faciaitis pain literally disappeared. I substituted a brand new superfeet bed in for a few hours today, and the pain returned immediately. I'm hooked.

SOLE Custom Footbeds are awesome!

I have suffered from fibromyalgia, ethromyalgia, planter facitis and knee/hip pain for over 15 years. I have spent hundreds of dollars on orthopedic insoles that have done nothing. I was just about to give up on even walking, when I saw your product advertised on the internet. The SOLE Custom Footbeds are awesome! I wear them in my shoes everyday! In fact, I have 3 pair of the SOLE ULTRA Softec so that I can leave them in my shoes and not have to keep yanking them out and replacing them in my other shoes. At 44 years of age, even my walking had been limited by my daily plantar fasciitis and knee pain during and following my short walks outside. I now have absolutely no pain in my arches. And, my knee pain is gradually getting better. Yet, there is no cure for my other disabilities, The SOLE footbeds have truly helped me get around the house and even walking around outside! P.S. They are easy to heat in the oven - and even if you don't, they are still comfortable just as they are right out of the package and into your shoes! Thanks!

They work fantastic

They work fantastic. I am a distance runner who is training for Boston. I also am 5' 9" and 200 lbs. I have a lot of strain on my arches. Before I started using the SOLE Custom Footbeds I had problems with Plantar fasciitis in my left arch. Since I put the Footbeds in I have had no problems what so ever. I am averaging about 40-50 miles per week in them. I did a 22 mile training run yesterday without any problems. I love your product and would highly recommend them to anyone.

The "SOLE" was the only one that felt comfortable.

After suffering from Plantar Fasciitis pain to the point where I thought I might have to resort to a doctor visit, a friend suggested that I try the local running products store. The "SOLE" was the only one that felt comfortable. I have been wearing them for 4 months now and have been pain free for quite some time. What I consider the most dramatic result though, was that after only 2 or 3 days of wear, I could get out of bed in the morning and walk with only minimal pain and by the evening I could also walk comfortably. Thanks for the great product.

My feet would hurt so bad that I could hardly walk

My Doctor recomended your product and I have been very pleased with it. My feet would hurt so bad that I could hardly walk. On one occasion they were hurting so bad that I had to use a walker just to get out of bed and walk around. Then the Doctor suggested that I get your insoles for my shoes and they are working great. Thank you for your great insoles.

Up until two months ago my feet were feeling the almost 15 years of pounding endured in the Worlds finest...The United States Marine Corps

Up until two months ago my feet were feeling the almost 15 years of pounding endured in the Worlds finest...The United States Marine Corps. Two months ago I purchased a set of yoursole insoles for my boots. After a few days I was sold, every pair of boots I own now has a set yoursole insoles inside. I have tried multiple types of insoles from other companies and they cannot measure up to yoursole. They made my boots feel like running shoes. Your product was simple to use and I will tell everyone I serve with about them. Semper Fi.

I will not have a pair of boots without them again

I work 12 hour shifts standing on concrete and was having heel pain everyday. This was eliminated within 24 hours of placing the new SOLE insoles in my boots. I am so glad I ordered your product when I did. I will not have a pair of boots without them again.

A year ago my feet looked like a war zone.

A year ago my feet looked like a war zone. The week between long runs wasn't enough to remedy the huge blisters I was getting on the sides of my feet and under many of my toes. The toes on the right foot suffered and the side of my left foot never could callus! My friend Jane kept talking about her magic socks - I'd tried everything - body glide, alcohol soaks - you name it. So I went to my local running store, Colorado Running Company and told Alicia I wanted some magic socks because Jane swore by them. She knew exactly what I was talking about. And the magic socks were good - but the really amazing thing is that magic Sole socks combined with the magic Sole insert mean that I am blister free - well except for the pinky toe on the left foot that I step on for 26.2 miles! Seriously, I had a massage today, just two weeks after running the Boston Marathon and my massage therapist, having seen the horror of my feet after previous marathons, marveled at them. She said that few marathoners feet looks this good. I'm running in the same shoes - training shoes and race day shoes - that I was a year ago. The difference - my Sole socks and my Sole inserts. I had enough other aches and pains to worry about during the marathon - it's nice to know that I don't have to worry about my feet anymore. I'm a believer - magic does work, especially when it's called Sole.

Your soles did save this grandmother a ton of money

My 12-yr. old granddaughter was having terrible knee pain. My son, who has been using these inserts, gave us the website address, and he helped my granddaughter heat & form them when they arrived. Fortunately, she finds the inserts so helpful that she switches the inserts each time she changes shoes. She plays softball and volleyball. Softball season, as the catcher, nearly killed her with knee pain; she received the inserts prior to volleyball and was much better. I believe the problem is hereditary in the shape and form of our feet. You will probably be getting more orders for sandals and more sizes over time! Your soles did save this grandmother a ton of money as my grandchildren are uninsured, and I have to pay medical bills for them. Thank you for the great product and the medical savings.

Wish we would have bought two pairs!

My daughter started having problems with her arches and her feet hurting. Our athletic trainer here at school suggested buying a pair of the insoles. The only problem---we wish we would have bought two pairs!!

This product is outstanding

Flat arches were causing alot of pain especially when walking around the house in my bare feet. With the new sandals I can even stand in the kitchen and cook for long periods of time on a hard floor with no pain. This product is outstanding and I have recommended it to my physical therapist for some of his patients to try.

I've developed a crunchy knee

I've developed a "crunchy" knee and was favoring it, causing altered gait. I saw a physical therapist who strengthened legs and sold me Sole footbeds to counter pronation. Just returned from a 2-week walking tour (~ 62 miles total) in Scandinavia where all moving parts held up great! I had footbeds (unaltered by heat treatment) in both walking shoes and hiking boots. The double socks were great too.

The SOLE footbeds have reduced the pain I feel by 70% to 90%

I'm a type II insulin dependent diabetic and have been for over 40 years so I have "very sensitive feet". Also while trail running last October I jumped over a down tree and landed on a broken glass bottle. I gashed the ball of my right foot. It took several weeks to heal and I still get some "burning and pain" on the ball of my right foot. The Sole footbeds have reduced the pain I feel by 75% to 90% dependent on the weather (worse when it's hot) and the surface I run on. I mix road, crushed cinder and trail. I run 25 to 45 miles per week and am training for my first trail ultra (50K) on October 5th, 2008.

They are just like a second skin

I've been using SOLE footbeds and socks while training on a variety of surfaces (e.g. sidewalks, roads, mulch trails) in mild as well as cold weather. The footbeds are supportive without feeling rigid, and with them I have not had the blister problems I sometimes developed when running with my shoes' original footbeds. Since they are so lightweight I can wear them for long training runs and not feel as much fatigue as I have with other footbeds I've tried. I've worn the Air-Flow Cooling socks for a couple of road races and like their "breathability." They are just like a second skin. The Dual-Layer socks are my favourites for winter running--I've been comfortable in temperatures down to -15C with them.

They are now the ONLY sandals I wear

Having pain in my inner shin area above my ankle's when wearing traditional style 'flip flops' esp after long runs. Was virtually eliminated after my Sole purchase. They are now the ONLY sandals I wear.

I have been running for 5 days a week again without any debilitating pain

I was recently diagnosed with Plantar Fasciitis (age 40), along with a sharp pain under and behind the big toe knuckle for the last 3 years that my doctor could not find a reason for. With your inserts I have been running for 5 days a week again without any debilitating pain. Thanks for the great product!
