Spenco Total Support Original Insole, Women's 13-14.5/Men's 12-13

LOVE these inserts! As a large person, I put a lot of stress on insoles; these hold up for a long time (over a year now), and still feel solid. I have flat feet, and these can make all the difference between keeping or returning a pair of shoes. Thank you Spenco, from all of us with flat feet.

This will be my first time using this style of Spenco Total Support. For the past 19 years, I have only used Spenco full length arch support. These formed to my feet perfectly. As soon as I inserted them into my shoe, I wear Merrill Moabs, it slid in with ease. I wear these shoes 7 days a week and up to 13 hours a day. I am on my feet on all types of surfaces. My feet haven't felt better. I know at one point these will possibly lose the support, all do after awhile. I will switch and stay with this style. I am and always be a Spenco innersole wearer.

I have very very very flat feet. Of the different arch supports I have tried this is the best one. I have bought 8 pairs of these and I will continue to buy more. Would recommend.

An ex-football player past his prime (6'3", 360 lbs, size 13D, medium arch), I was recently diagnosed with plantar fasciitis. My orthopedist recommended daily stretching exercises and Orthoheel slippers to wear indoors (no more walking around in socks). What a difference! The slippers and exercises lessened my symptoms from the start and, over time, eliminated most of my discomfort, so I decided to find some orthotic inserts to improve my street shoes. So far, I've tested: 1. Dr. Scholl's Massaging Gel Extra Support 2. Aetrex Copper Medium Arch 3. Spenco Polysorb Total Support 4. Superfeet Copper DMP 5. Powerstep Pinnacle 6. Powerstep Pinnacle Pro each for two hours' total walking time over a few days in two pairs of my favorite shoes: New Balance 606 hikers and Cole Haan loafers with Nike Air. Dr. Scholl's Massaging Gel Extra Support: Advertised for big & tall men, they didn't do much for me. While the extra cushioning helped at first, it helped less and less the longer I walked on them. I mentioned this to my orthopod and he told me the key to managing PF is not cushioning, it's support. Grade: D Spenco Polysorb Total Support: Remembering my doc's advice, I chose these for the rigid heel cup and arch support. Though quite comfortable overall, the arch support was a bit too low for my medium-high arches and the heel cup was insufficient support for weight. While they worked reasonably well for me, I believe they would a be better choice for lighter individuals with lower arches. Grade: B Aetrex Copper Medium Arch: Promising better arch support, these felt very similar to the Spenco insoles even after walking around the block. I then swapped one of the Aetrex insoles for one of the Spenco insoles and walked around again. Only then could I tell them apart. The Spenco offered a little better support for the mid- and fore-parts of my foot, the Aetrex offered a little better support for my arch. Grade: B Superfeet: I was in an Allen Edmonds store and noticed the Superfeet insoles. The clerk said many men my size have good success with them. I tried the Orange and the Copper DMP versions in the store. Finding the Orange too high for my arches, I got a pair of the Copper DMP. These are easily the most rigid of the insoles I've tried...and easily the best. Superfeet arch support sits farther back on the insole than other brands. This made a real difference in the support and comfort I felt walking long distances. I also found the medial post support in the heel did a better job than other insoles in combatting over-pronation. Grade: A [Update: I have since tried Superfeet Black in dress shoes that couldn't accommodate the Orange insole. They work well but are not as supportive as the Copper.] Powerstep Pinnacle: While it seems well-made and offered good support, it simply did not work for me. The gel-based arch support sits too far forward and in the middle of the insole. The insoles felt like I had lumps of clay underfoot. After a few blocks of brisk walking, my feet began to fatigue as if I were walking barefoot in sand. Again, these may work for some people but they didn't for me. Grade: C Powerstep Pinnacle Pro: Other wearers commented that the Pinnacle Pro differs markedly from the Pinnacle, so I tried a pair. I barely made it a block before heading back home. Though more rigid than the Pinnacle and with a better heel cup, the Pinnacle Pro was too inflexible through the arch and ball of my foot. These were the only insoles I tried that truly caused me pain. Of course, it could just be the contours of my feet, and for others the Pinnacle Pro might be great. Grade: F

These are some great insoles! I have been wearing them for years now. The price has always been a little steep at most places though (over $40). I just purchased a new pair of shoes, so I bought a new pair of these insoles to go with them. Luckily, Amazon had them at a great price. Less than half of what they sell for at some other places. I have Plantar fasciitis in both of my feet, thanks to being blessed (or not) with "flat" feet. I am on my feet a lot, and my heels are always hurting. After wearing these insoles for about a week the pain in my heels went away, and has never come back, as long as I continue to use them. I put them in all of my shoes now. I even put the insoles in my Vans, which have no arch support in them what-so-ever, and they work great. Yes, they do squeak a little as you walk, when they are new, but that goes away after a while (about 3 weeks). The powder remedy does work if the squeak really bothers you that much. I do not heat the insoles as I have found it makes them shrink, and not last as long. I wear a men's size 13. They fit perfectly in my shoes without having to trim them, and they do not slide when I walk. I hope Spenco continues to make these insoles for many years to come. They work great, and they are a lot cheaper than having to get a prescription for medical orthodics. Thank you Spenco for making such a great product, and Amazon for selling them at such a great price.

Much better than expensive orthotics. Met expectations. Good arch height. Definitely need to ease into wearing them if your arch is collapsed for comfort. Afterwards, can wear all day.

Bought these on the guidance of my chiropractor. I am pretty much flat footed and was having some back issues. These insoles are very comfortable and have eased any pain with my walks. They have also helped tremendously with my back pain.

Comfort? Well they aren’t gonna be award winners in this category, as the original memory foam inserts in my old pair of Skechers were a lot more comfortable. They don’t hurt my feet after standing for a few hours however. Pain relief? Well considering that the original inserts were wore down to where it hurt to wear the shoes, this is a big improvement as with these inserts in, I can use the shoes again without it hurting after a few hours. I don’t have any feet problems other than that it’s hard to find shoes that fit my wider than normal feet. These inserts fit like a glove in my size 14 extra wide sketchers arch fits, which came as a surprise. I’ve tried other brands in the past and they were always too small to fit right, as the wider width of the shoe, left a gap. But not these, perfect fit. They are sturdy inserts though and have held up for a few weeks, with no sign of wear.

These are very comfortable and provide decent arch support. Fit well in shoes and material is good quality. Spenco is one of the best brands out there for good arch support and this model is no exception.

FAST SHIPPING TO FRANCE - NEW - BEST QUALITY - BRAVO

Don't buy it, trust me. I made the huge mistake of wasting 40£ for these worthless insoles. It's very overpriced and has none effect and there's no refund. Instead get some costom made insoles that are made specifically for your feet.

Over five years, I have used both the Spenco Total Support Original and the Spenco Total Support Max inner soles. The Max version feels as if it has a higher and firmer arch support and, to me, is not as comfortable as the Original. I have given up specialist orthotics and now have the Spenco Original insoles in all my shoes and joggers. I would not be without them. I recently bought a pair of the Originals for my wife to try and, so far, she finds them very supportive.

Great foot support and very confortable.
