I was desperate to love these as a solution to my plantar fasciitis but there just wasn’t enough arch support to alleviate my foot pain.

These really helped my planters fasciitis. I can use the elliptical at my gym again and get a good workout! I haven't been able to do that in over 1 year.

Bought the narrow size and they fit perfectly in my shoes and sneakers. Got the athletic full length in medium width and I am having a tough time placing them in any shoes. Will probably return those.Haven’t worn this much yet, but them seem like they will work well. Right now I am wearing the Birkenstock sandals. recommend trying the narrow width if you don’t have a wide shoe.

I am responding to the anonymous wearer that said the arch hit the wrong spot, hurting the feet. I too had this problem. It turns out that I was wrongly sized, and having struggled with the sandals..I sized up one. Magic; the arch and metatarsal hit the right spots and the Bostons and Arizonas are all day comfortable. I'm here to get the insoles. (BTW: width matters, or Birks can be sloshy. I'm a narrow.)

These arch supports cured my plantar fasciitis! I wear them in casual, dress, athletic and hiking shoes. They’ve held up great (for over a year now wearing many times/week). Highly recommend!

These are great. If you love Birks, based off the need of their arch and design for the foot…these go well in any of your casual/sport/dress shoes for that support. I spent 3x the cost of these on custom inserts molded for me, which work, and are nice. but the I find myself going to the Birk inserts more often. They are incredible!

I normally wear a 37 in Birkenstock’s, but had to size down to a 36 for the shoe insert for comfort, and so that it would fit in my shoes. This is a rigid arch support that does not bend. I’ve used this arch support for over 10 years.

Birkenstock arch supports are the only ones I would ever buy as they last so long like there sandals, shoes etc.

Simply the best insert. It is effective and practical. I did not know what to expect. This insert was gifted to friends and relatives alike. Surprisingly, with similar positive results. Be patient and get used to it. Eventually, plantar fasciitis will go away. ?

These are a lifesaver if you have plantar fasciitis. A smaller profile than the thicker ones, these fit much better into my sneakers and ballet flats. You won’t be sorry with these!

These arch supports from Birkenstock have changed my shoe game! I can once again wear shoe styles that I had to give up due to poor arch support.

These are great in tennis shoes. They provide as much support as a custom orthotic.

This is the second pair I've ordered. The first pair is still good but I got tired of switching the supports between shoes.

They are very rigid arch support, takes getting used to them. Excellent for my flat feet.

They did what I hoped—allowed me to work and be in my feet all day without even pain in my feet, legs, or back. They are very unobtrusive and not bulky at all.

I have flat feet and have recently struggled with a partial posterior tendon tear. I have worn orthotics or arch supports my whole life but struggled with them not fitting into my shoes or making my shoes feel too small. I am blown away by the comfort and fit of these arch supports.I can put them in any shoe, even hurache sandals or ballet slipper. My search is over!!

These Birkenstock cork footbeds were specifically recommended to me by my physician who diagnosed my foot pain as Morton's neuroma. I have been using them for several weeks now. Each time I wear them, they feel stiff and a bit awkward at first but they do seem to be helping. It's great that the 3/4 length and tailored shape make it possible to insert these footbeds invisibly into many styles of footwear.

This is my second pair of these inserts. The first pair has lasted for many years and still are in good shape except for appearance. I find them to be very comfortable. The 3/4 length fits well in all my shoes and prevents the toe box from being too tight, as a full length insert might. They allow me to wear shoes that would otherwise not have enough arch support to be comfortable. I was very happy to find that Zappo's carries them.

This is an awesome arch support (and I had many)! There was a several day transition, but after that I noticed a huge difference in walking.
