Side by Side Comparison of: Sof Sole

Great replacement insole for my shoes! Provides much more cushion compare to the soles that came with my shoes, those things were paper thin compared to this sof sole!

This is my 4th pair of these I love them. Every shoe I buy now I buy these too. The soles that come with shoes are super thin and not supportive at all. These make a huge difference for your feet, legs and back when on your feet all day. I like this version because it's maximum cushion and normal arch. If your arch is a little low or a little high you may consider the other versions. I wear size 9 shoe and the 9-10.5 size fits my shoe perfectly.

I bought these because the inserts in my 4-month-old Nike sneakers when kapoot (flatter than a pancake), and I wasn't prepared to toss the sneakers into the trash. The soles and topsides of the shoes are fine, so I was determined to get some more use out of them. I wear a 7 1/2 and these fit into the shoes fine length-wise, but are a bit wide. I haven't bothered cutting them down, figuring they'll mold around my foot after a couple of workouts. They aren't not so thick as to affect me being able to tie my shoes (I pulled the old, flattened inserts out). The new inserts are as comfortable as what were in the shoes initially. Hopefully, these will last longer than the original sneaker inserts, but even if it's only 4 months, it'll have been worth the $20 to extend the life of my expensive sneakers.

All sneakers have a moderate amount of cushion, but no where enough when it comes to being comfortable and walking/ standing all day long.I am a college student at a UC and walk close to 6000+ steps a day whilst lugging a 50lb backpack. And I have a number of shoes from nikes, Jordan's and vans which I all would say are pretty moderate when it comes to comfortBut I randomly came across this insole and decided to give it a try, and here how I tested if it was worth the investment- I replaced the insole of one Nike air Jordan 1 with aid sole Athletic insole, and left the other shoe with the original insole it came with.at first I noticed it was much more supportive and my foot was cradled by the curves of the insole much more competed to the original sole, which left my shoe feeling like there was a bunch of space under my arc.At the end of the day I did notice my show with the insole much less fatigued than the one withoutOVERALL:I would definitely recommend replacing he insole (instead of just placing it on top of the existing one) usually it just takes a little effort to peel it off the shoe Bc it's held down with a mild glueThis insole did a great job in replacing the original insole and providing comfort and supportHere are pics of the original sole of my air Jordan 1's compared to the cushioning of the sof sole insole

I've used these exclusively in my hiking boots for over a year, and no blisters or hotspots whatsoever. Of course, you have to couple them with well-fitting boots and good socks, but they are so much more comfortable than Superfeet, which everyone seems to consider The Greatest Insole Ever.Very comfortable, even after a long day of climbing and descending wearing a 35-lb backpack.I consider them an essential part of my backpacking gear.

I have used these insoles for years. I used to be a food server, and on my feet all day. The Sof Sole insoles, are the best I've ever found!!! And I've tried them all!! These insoles keep your feet happy, all day. I will never buy another brand. The commercials that are on t.v. for other "gel" brands do not work.The Sof Sole insoles are like clouds for your feet!! Sincerely, Bobee

I buy these every 7-8 months when they start to get worn. Im on my feet a lot so they give me the proper support. They fit great in a pair of sneakers. Just remove the flimsy cheap sneaker inserts and put these in. Worth the money

This is my 2nd time purchasing these.insoles for my college aged son. He's an athlete and spends alot of time wearing cleats for his football conditioning and agility tests. But I purchase these insoles for him to wear around campus and absorb the shock, but still fit his needs.

I probably have 5 of these and use them.in all my soccer cleats. Very soft and definitely add cushioning. The downside is they are heavy and if you cannot remove current insole iy will be tough for. I now prefer the Soft Sol thinner model vs theseIf you have room these are good but for soccer cleats these are way too heavy and bulky and will effect sizing

I really like the insole. The dimensions were a perfect fit and replacement for my crossfit sneaker insoles. My other insole was a thin (3mm) piece of foam. This Sof Sole brand are a little thicker, but has layers of cushion, which are nice. I think they're a great insole, but I was hoping for something with a little less give for my exercise sneakers. I saw the terms "athlete lightweight performance" and expected them to be stiffer. For me (a 165lb guy), they'd be an excellent running insole for my 3-5 mile jogs. Either way, my feet are happier! I would buy from the brand again and will probably try their "thin fit" series in my exercise shoes!

This is the second time that I've purchased these insoles, and I have really enjoyed them for running. They provide good support without being too restrictive. I do have to trim them down a bit in the toe to fit in my shoes (I wear a women's 6), but that's generally to be expected. Like any insole, they do trap odors and can't be washed to rid them of that odor, which is a bummer. I wore my first set of insoles for about 8 months before the smell got so bad that I had to trade them out.

Close enough, given the price and features. I work on my feet and on concrete floors, every day. Shoes, socks and especially insoles, must function well for me to buy them. I require longevity also, as I'm not going to buy something that has to be reached every 2 or 3 months. I can get a solid 6+ months out of a set of these insoles! during which they cushion as stated. I actually like the fact that, when they're worn out, you know it right away; you can feel it. That helps a lot in not working too long on a blown out insole. These last as long and work as well as stuff twice as pricy.

They're just okay. I was looking for insoles for my shoes for work. I am a nurse and work 12 hour shifts. It's good if you're on your feet for 8 hours but that last 4, your feet starts hurting. At least they're are true to size and fit in my shoe perfectly!

I wanted them to work, but they were too thick for replacements in my asics trainers. They did feel nice and squishy though. Bummer.

I purchased these to fit into a lovely pair of Converse which I found "too hard" to walk in the city all day. They are comfortable, but they are quite thick and push my small toes into the sides of the shoe which isn't that comfortable any longer. I haven't tried to take matters into my own hands yet.

I wanted new insoles for Brooks Ghost 8 running shoes. These have good cushion and arch support, but they are too thick and the heel is too high, so the fit and feel of the shoes are not to my liking. I wanted to get Merrell Ortholite dual-density insoles, only 10 bucks, but they are out of stock. If Brooks would change their insole material to have less compression/flattening and more cushion, like ASICS GT insoles are, they would be better.If these insoles were a touch thinner, say 1/8" less, and the heel height was 1/4" less, so the insole was 'flatter' overall (but still with the heel cup/curved area), then they would be great. Thus if any designers are reading this, there you go.

These inserts definitely help out with my Salomon Speedcross 3 running shoes. They take away SOME of the tiredness my feet experience with daily activities, and are absolutely better than the factory included insoles, which are absolutely terrible. However, they don't take away the fatigue you get from standing for extended periods of time like higher end ones will. Don't expect too much from them and you'll be satisfied. The support isn't that great, as they are similar to a gel pad... But thats it. No arch support. As a longtime Amazon customer, I rely on reviews from the Amazon community when making buying decisions. That being said, I only believe in giving honest and unbiased reviews.

They don't breathe well and they make a slight squeak. Used them to restore some padding to New Balance x-training shoes. But their on-size-fits 7-8.5 makes them about 3/8" short in my 8.5 shoes. You can feel the gap. I notice they don't breath as well as the original soles, trapping heat and moisture. Finally, after a few weeks, the right one makes a slight squeak (more like a "gurt-gurt'-gurt") noise. All those are minor observations and no where near deal killers. On the plus side, they were easy to install, the material is durable, the padding is good. Would I buy them again? Maybe. But for that price and considering the variety of other choices, I'd probably try something else.

Insert feels great, nice and comfy. However, the insert itself was too thick and made my shoes too cramped around the toe and top of my foot. I have a wider foot with a higher arch. It might work on different shoes, but wasn't so good on my boots, my nike trainers, my adidas runners, or my new balance runners.

They have a lot of squish for comfort but offer little actual arch support. Also they are a bit wide for my Fila tennis shoes and thus unusable. No amount of trimming can fix that since the wide part is in the area of the insole that is structurally thicker.

Placed in my Nike Pegasus 33 with over 400 miles to give them more life-didn't work.I'm on my feet for 12+ hours (Nurse) and after 2 shifts, these soles did little to relieve my feet..My heels began to ache after a few hours of running around the unit. The search continues...

I did not think there was enough cushioning. Definitely I will stick to top of the line Walking Store inserts. I have bad knees.

The second I took them out of the package I could tell that this is not going to work. There is no arch support whatsoever. I'm glad it works for others. I'd rather spend extra $$ on the Airr Orthotic Performance Insole of the same brand.

I have been using these insoles daily for over a month now. I can say they are better than what came with the shoes I purchased however I don't feel these provide the necessary support my feet need. My feet have actually been pretty achy the past few weeks - I can't directly attribute this to the insoles as I have been wearing newer shoes as well but I haven't experienced this when I have used other insoles. They are pretty thin at the part under the ball of the foot. While the arch isn't bad, I would like a little more support (my arches are a little higher than the average person). While I will continue to use these until they wear out, I won't consider buying them again.

Using this insole actually hurt my feet more than without it. I wish I could return the item but Amazon doesn't allow that.

It's too thick that it makes my heels keep popping out of my shoes. Disappointed!!

I like it but after a few days of using the heel area is starting to get kind of flat as well as the frontal portion .-.Update: The item honestly doesn't help at all anymore it just feels so flat

I wanted to like these, and I did for the first week. Then it was bothering my arch. There was too much cushioning, that it made my running shoes fit very tight and uncomfortable. I wear Brooks running shoes. I threw them out.

These were the same size as my original soles so I didn't feel the need to cut them down. Needless to say the left one is shaped differently or something as it's hurting my foot pretty badly.

I purchased these insoles 3 weeks ago. I bought them to put in my work shoes as I am on my feet all day. After 3 weeks of use, they are shot and have zero padding left in them. I do not recommend buying these.
