Customer Reviews Birkenstock Blue Footbed Arch Support - Casual

I wear birkenstocks whenever I can. I have a lot of knee pain when wearing other shoes for a long period of time. With these insoles I can now walk without pain in boots and tennis shoes. I put these in all of my shoes, especially my heeled ankle boots. These are great and do not make my shoes feel too tight. I wear the same size as Birkenstock, typically a 38 (I wear a 8-9 in other brands but need to size down for Birkenstock).

These arch supports really are the bees knees... They help with making any shoe feel like you're really wearing Birkensrock shoes. Highly recommend getting at least two pairs for those two pairs of shoes you wear constantly.

I've been wearing Birkenstock sandals since the 80's. I'm a hairdresser and on my feet for up to 12 hours a day. The sandals were the only foot wear that would support my feet, legs, and back for long periods of time. Believe me, I've tried many brands and styles and always came back to my Birks. When I found that they made insoles I was ecstatic! Bought them, put them in my cute boots, and voila! I have the same Birkenstock comfort in all my flat shoes!! It's so great to be able to wear different styles with out compromising my physical health. Thank you Birkenstock!

Very comfortable inserts. Made my husband's old work boots feel brand new with inserts in.

These fit nicely in my loafers and flats, and make them much more comfortable. I love Birkenstock shoes for the great support, and these inserts provide similar support in my other shoes. I also like that they don't slide around in my shoes, unlike many other arch support inserts I have tried in the past.

I've tried orthotic after orthotic and over time have spent a ton of money on customized ones. These beat all the others, and absolutely every over-the-counter one I every tried. Best support. Fits into shoes without the need to cut to size. Readily moves from one pair to another.

I was having severe pain due to plantar faciitis in my one foot. It was miserable for weeks. I saw my family doctor and she said to try the Birkenstock inserts. I hobbled into a local store, put the inserts into my running shoes, and walked out of the store without even a limp. WHAT A DIFFERENCE!! I have been wearing them now for about 4 weeks and have less and less plantar faciitis pain every day. I have biked more than 400 miles since, using the inserts, without much pain at all. Highly recommended for anyone trying to deal with painful plantar faciitis.

This is my second time getting PF and my doctor tried giving me some inserts that were hard as a rock. I knew that hard inserts were no good for me so I came home and found these on Zappos. I followed the instructions and slowly built of the time wearing them for about a week. After the 1st day the pain was less. Now it is almost completely gone! Thank you Zappos and Birkenstock.

It is a miracle! THANK YOU ZAPPOS! I have the worst feet one can imagine. Because of fallen arch, my right leg is shorter than the left one, so beside flat feet i have try to equalize it. BIRKENSTOCK I CAN WALK!

These are fantastic! Just now replacing my original pair after 8 years. I wear them in all my non Birkenstock shoes: running shoes, boots even ballet flats. I have plantar fasciitis, a bunion and a pinched nerve in my left foot. 25 years ago when I was first diagnosed with PF, my podiatrist recommended Birkenstocks. I've lived in them ever since. The bunion and pinched nerve were the result of a 6 month shot at Alegrias. I'm a baker and must stand long hours on concrete floors. After having the pinched nerve diagnosis, a second podiatrist recommended Birkenstocks! I just smiled, went home and threw the Alegrias in the trash. I will never wear anything else again. Lesson learned. When I wear these inserts my feet remain pain free. It's nice to be able to wear different style shoes once in awhile. While these are pricey, in the long run they are more cost effective than the drug store inserts that don't last as long. I have been amazed how long these have lasted me. I've tried other expensive orthotics as well and haven't experienced the level of support and comfort. Highly recommend!

These worked better than custom orthotics for me. They helped completely stop the heel pain I was experiencing. And for a fraction of the cost of custom orthotics!

I can't believe how great these inserts work for me, I can't seem to find any shoes that have the support I need since Orthaheel quit making their sandals, so I was so very happy to find this insert so at least I can have comfort in my sneakers. I would love to know if Birkenstock has a shoe with this same arch support as I would be very interested in checking them out. This insert is very pricey, but what price can you put on being pain free? Love them!

As far as I can determine the insole is made of silk and cork, all natural materials. The arch support is the best I've ever experienced. Highly recommend.

These things are great! I work 12 hour shifts and I'm on my feet most of the time. I've worn these for two days now and my feet don't hurt at all.

These arches are amazing! I have very flat feet and I love wearing Birkenstock sandals so I decided to try these out, great arch support and even more comfortable than my custom made orthotics. They really give me a bounce in my step! I highly recommend these to anyone who needs great arch support! I was able to fit them in my running sneakers, Fashion sneakers, and even my tiny ballet flats!

Awesome support. Bought one and then a week later a second one. I have no arches and the support of these is compensating very nicely. Love them and highly recommend them for others.

Heel spurs run in my family, and at 25 I was starting to get them as well. I was in so much pain, I could hardly walk, especially in flats. After just a few days of wearing these, the pain completely went away and it has stayed away (at least four months). I feel like they are true to size, although it did take me a little bit to get used to them. I wear these in flats, boots, and sometimes even heels if they do not show. I was hesitant to spend so much money just for inserts, but they have made a world of difference. The quality is phenomenal and I can tell that they will last a long time.

I overpronate very badly and I ussually wear inserts that i got from a podiatrist when I was 18. They still work better than anything else I have tried so far other than real Orthaheels, but these inserts were nearly as good as the ones i got from my podiatrist! These are sturdy and don't flatten out when I stand on them as do the leather or cushy ones i have tried. They hold my foot where it should be and they fit in my New Balance shoes very nicely without taking the insert that comes in it out. Bottom line; I am so very glad I tried these, it has saved me a trip to an expensive specialist to get a second pair of inserts.

These footbeds were perfect. They were very streamlined and worked well in my shoes. Now I can have Birkenstock support for my feet in my other shoes, too.

Having spent a lifetime in the retail shoe business, without foot problems, I was quite concerned when a red bump developed at the primary ball join of my left foot. By reading numerous reviews I decided that the Berk. Blue arch support was worth a try. Initially I felt that the longitudinal arch support was helpful in straightening out the foot but that the metatarsal bump was too high and felt like a lump under my forefoot. After persisting a few days I saw the red ball joint's swelling go down and the pain decrease substantially. Obviously My foot bones needed to realigned. I am most thankful for this product and would highly recommend it for excellent arch support.

Phenomenal if you need arch support! I've had some pain in my right foot ever since pregnancy (fallen arches), which goes away if I wear shoes with proper arch support. These are fantastic! Yesterday I wore them with a pair of tennis shoes that normally trigger my foot pain -- not so anymore. Also they are easily removed and applied to other shoes as needed. If you need proper arch support, you won't be disappointed!

By far the best Arch Support on the market. I have a pair that is over 20 years old! Still going strong. Can be washed in soapy water. Have tried a least a dozen others and they are worthless within months. Slips into all shoes...casual to sport shoes. I like to buy a 1/2 size up to accommodate. Great for Plantar Faciitis issues.

We purchased these for our daughter to put in her school uniform shoes, which don't have much in the way of arch support. She has very flat feet, and she says that these keep her feet from hurting during the day, and are very comfortable. She even asked if she could put them in her volleyball shoes, so she must love them!

I have plantar fasciitis and these are great! They have the metatarsal arch which helps immensely. Very comfortable and they fit into all my shoes. I would highly recommend them.
