Customer Reviews SOLE Softec Ultra

Fantastic product with excellent life span! And the service is great as well!

This kind of Sole footbed was recommended to me to treat my plantar fasciitis. I use them in Brooks Adrenaline 16 shoes for more than a year. I had terrible foot pain, but since I walked out of the store in my new Brooks+Sole, I forgot about the pain. I recommend this brand to all who I know.

Excellent arch support. Blows away the cheap inserts in new shoes. I now have seven pairs of these. They are durable and keep my foot fully supported in whatever shoes I'm wearing. Worth the extra money!

I have used these inserts for myself, but now am buying a pair for my very active 12 yr old son who has foot pain issues with high arch and plantar fascitis. I bought these to replace the crappy insoles inside his Nike basketball high-tops. He put them in, put them on his feet, and gave a big sigh...."YESSSSS!" These were easy to mold (200 degree oven for 2 minutes). If you are asking yourself if it's worth it, YES IT IS!

Better arch support than Superfeet. All day comfort without any forming. Wish they were cheaper!

Comfortable insole with virtually no break-in period. I bought these to replace the worn out insoles in my 1-yr old Saucony Ride 7 running shoes. Shoes feel like new again with these insoles. Great support, cushioning and comfort. Highly recommend.

I have high arches and plantar fasciitis and for me these worked straight out of the box. I walk no less than 4 miles a day and thee have felt fantastic. Unfortunately, I cut them a little too short and, after a few weeks of feeling the end of the insole under my big toe, I'm finally ordering a new pair.

I love these inserts! Due to Plantar Fasciitis and Morton's Neuroma, I was in search of all new shoes. I thought I would try these inserts first, and voila! I don't have to get rid of my old shoes! They have enough stiffness in the front to support my toes, and they have excellent arch support. They are comfortable underfoot. These are actually more comfortable and helpful than my custom-made orthotics.

Quality insole that I wish the manufacturer would make more varietals available in larger sizes. Been using these for years. They may not exact fit your shoe but are easily trimmed. Try a pair!

I purchased these after I tore my posterior tibial tendon. I was placed in a "Boot" by my orthopedic Dr. But I still needed more arch support so I purchased these inserts. They have been super helpful. They have provided good arch support but not to much. Now I'm out of the boot and in PT and both my Dr and PT have been very impressed with the quality of these inserts. Instead of having to get fitted for special orthodic inserts my Dr feels these are adequate. I now have multiple pairs I use in every set of shoes. I will say that it does take a few days to get used to them, but once you're through that faze your feet will feel great. And if you need to you can heat them and mold them to your foot. Great product. Great quality. I would definitely recommend these and others from the same company. Thank you Zappos for having them.

True arch support and deep heel cup. I finally found relief from plantar fasciitis. They are thick and take up a lot of room in your shoes. Perfect replacement for removable footbeds.

These inserts support my feet and high arches in comfort for walking, running distance or power shopping. I remove the insert that comes with the shoe and heat this up and insert. My last pair of these outlasted 2 pairs of running shoes.

There's a place in Lubbock that sells these and I got some over a year ago. I thought I was going to have to travel back there to purchase another set because I knew that had to be heated. Imagine my delight to find them here and that I can just pop them into my own oven. Easy. I wear them in my NB athletic shoes.

My husband and I both have Planter Fasciitis and we both have found a great deal of relief by replacing the insoles of our shoes with Sole insoles. Can't guarantee it will help everyone, but it helped us and we have and will buy these again.

I have flat feet so my comments will relate mostly to my condition. These are as good as it gets for of the shelf orthotics. I heat them at 200 degrees for seven minutes instead of the recommended two minutes. The extra heat soaking conforms them better to my feet, your mileage may vary.

I wore Sole insoles in my boots in the Marine Corps and they were extremely comfortable in the field and even on 25mile humps. Now I am have them in Redwing steel toe boots as a diesel mechanic and 10 years later they are still making outstanding insoles. I tried some superfeet green insoles for a few minutes and knew right away they were not for me. These soles are awesome.

I've been using Sole inserts/orthotics for more than a decade. You can either mold them to your foot by wearing them for a few days or by heating them as directed, putting them in your shoes and standing in them for two minutes. For me, the longer I use these the more comfortable they become. It's a disappointment when I finally wear out a set because by then they feel so natural you hate to part with them.

I do not have arch issues (I actually have very good arches), but I actually have a different and overall worse set of problems. I have low volume feet and weak foot structure, causing my ankle to collapse downward upon impact each step. This results in knee pain, poor balance, etc. I have custom orthotics that correct this by providing angle and structure that my foot does not have. However, those custom orthotics do not work well in all shoes. For example, in my dress shoes, I get a lot of heel slippage. I have two pairs of these sole insoles. They are relatively thick, so they help to fill the shoes I put them in. Since I have low-volume feet, I generally have a lot of space leftover in all of my shoes. The support these insoles provide is great. I use them in running shoes and dress shoes. If you have higher volume feet, I may hesitate from buying these, as it may add too much volume to your shoe. Sole sells thinner insoles which should work if these do not. To sum up, here are the pros: - great support - can be heat molded (but do not have to be) - can be trimmed easily with scissors to fit a particular shoe - much less expensive than custom orthotics - add to the volume of the shoe, which is useful for people with low-volume feet (potentially a con) Honestly I do not really have any cons. If you are like me and need some kind of support in shoes, and your orthotics do not fit or work in though shoes for any reason, try these out.

SOLE insoles are simply the best. I now hate to wear shoes or boots that don't accommodate them. I like their thicker ones for hiking boots and the thinner ones for dress shoes. If you have high arches, you need SOLEs!

The SOLE Softec Ultra insoles provide excellent arch support. I have low arches and prefer strong/aggressive arch support. These fit perfectly in my walking shoes and feel great. They're even better than the very costly custom-made orthotics I got from a podiatrist. The arch support in these insoles is comparable that provided by Orthaheel's Tide flip-flops. Best of all, my plantar fasciitis is nearly gone. I didn't need to modify this pair, but the moldable feature is a plus. I highly recommend SOLE insoles and plan to buy more! Thank you, Zappos!

Great product! If your shoes allow for the depth of these inserts you will be pleased. My flat feet appreciate the arc support and the foam used in the base is a good rebounding material. I tried just one to see how they would work for me and then ordered three more for my shoes - from hiking boots to tennis shoes and loafers.

I have plantar fasciitis and the sole inserts were like a breath of fresh air for my feet. I can walk without hobbling again. Thanks, Zappos.
