Dr. Scholl's Run Active Comfort Insoles,Trim to Fit Inserts

I mean, they still have tread and other than being made paranoid by my running app that tells me I need to buy new shoes at a minimum of $80 (app prefers Asics. I appreciate the extra anxiety in my life. I just buy secondhand.), I have no problems. I'm 34 years young (problems on the way, I know), and log about 60 miles a month. Tore my ACL and meniscus years ago. I concede, I can't feel my menicuses (menisces? menisci? ...who cares, you know what I'm saying) being turned into grit. Soooo, I've opted for these in my past 4 pairs of shoes...until there is unsafe levels of tread left on the shoes (that's 2 pairs of running shoes, 1 pair of work shoes [learning young people], and some station boots [career change]). The construction of "running" brand shoes isn't impressive. They all have their trademarked names for the "technology," but uhh, PTFE (goretex/teflon) is a household name. I don’t know a household polymer name for comfy feet. I do know Dr. Scholl’s delivers 3 scoops in a chocolate waffle cone while The Shoe Company gives a taste on a popsicle stick and slaps a trademark on it. I'm probably a fool for buying anything other than what's out at Costco. How much support am I losing? It'd take some major facts to make me think these major running brand shoes are actually doing anything some off-brand can't (graphs and tables and stuff...with lots of colors). I mean is (your favorite shoe company) that invested in anything other than enticing you to think it’s shoes are great? There are plenty of ways to do that without added material/labor costs that are much cheaper than making decent shoes. Anyway, these insoles are fantastic. They put my mind at ease, and feel like a legitimate attempt by a company investing in supporting my lower extremities for their own financial gain. Everybody wins. I like the “high vis” green color that I can see when I am not wearing them too. It's like a landing strip for my ground beaters. They feel great, and it’s your fault if they don’t because you didn’t follow directions. I can feel the wonderful squishiness without feeling like I'm going to squish uncontrollably and roll my ankle...again (they won’t prevent that…also your and my fault). At the end of the run...it's the end of the run. I squish my way inside home and go to work with my DR. SCHOLL'S working-guy-man-bear-occasionally-unsure! insoles. I approve this message, and I wish someone paid me.

This is a thick insole that easily fits in shoes. Depending on the type of shoe you have it might be to tall but if your shoe has the room these are very comfortable for about 2 months. After 2 months I noticed although they don't look wore out they develop enough squish that you eventually start feeling the hard plastic support arch.If you don't need ones this thick or want to avoid the hard arch they make some called prevent pain that have a good amount of cushion but less than these do.

This is a good value and does just as well as more expensive insoles for plantar fasciitis and other age related foot aches and pains. I've been using these for about 10 years and in that time have tried others at 2-3 times the price, but they were no more comfortable. I don't like that they have one product for such a wide range of shoe sizes. It was easier to fit when they had small and large variants.

I replaced the insoles in a pair of golf shoes with these and they are great. Good arch support. One size, cut to fit. Just increased the shelf life on these shoes!

Great insoles for athletic shoes with soft-plastic arch support. Not too thick unless used together with custom arch supports which is not recommended.

Unfortunately, these were a bit more thick than I'd expected. I could see them being great for most people, but in my particular running shoes, they were just too thick and made the shoes unwearable. I think they're worth a shot of you need insoles, just be aware that they might not be quite right for every shoe.

I was pretty skeptical at first, this was the first time I had to get any insoles and didn't know if it was all hype or not. And for a bit, they just felt different, and I couldn't gauge as I was walking if they were truly helping anything. But as soon as I started running in them it all made sense. These are like having shock absorption pads built into the shoe. It's hard to describe otherwise, but I can feel they really help me avoid any further metatarsal injuries as I run, which is why I got them. It's like running on clouds, but walking feels about the same to me. Since I started with these my running performance increased dramatically as I didn't need to worry about an accidental injury again, plus it just felt nice. I'll buy these again if I get a second pair of running shoes!

Good for running, arch support is too rigid for walking and is a bit irritating on my right foot. I feel like the arch is helpful when you're running (on the balls of your feet vs heel/mid-foot strike), which helps with overall stability. I think I'm just going to buy the standard gel type with no rigid plastic arch support for walking and just swap them out as needed. They also help to fill out the Hoka shoes as I fall between half sizes on them.
