The Superfeet Insoles are designed to replace the insole that comes with your shoe, and at the same time improve it. It provides positive support for your feet. And your feet then pass the benefit up the body easing strain on the legs, hips and back.
Why is it Different?
Superfeet are different from most insoles because they are firm, not soft and cushy. And that makes a world of difference.A pillow is nice to lay on when you are relaxing. It is not that nice to walk on. So why would you put a pillow inside your shoe? Instead the Superfeet provide firm arch support and a deep heel cup.
The arch support helps keep the stress on the foot even over the entire foot and transition that force up through the body. The heel cup (and other support formations on the insole) help correct your heel strike when you walk. A good heel strike improves your balance and eases the stress on your legs, hips and back.
Does it Deliver?
Looking at them you might not think the Superfeet are anything special, but they deliver in spades. The support they provide make everything feel better, whether you are hiking on rocks or standing on concrete all day.It took me a few weeks to get use to them. In fact my feet hurt worse for a while. Particularly the insides of the joint for my big toes. The insoles corrected my stride, part of which was how I pushed off with the balls of my feet. I was unaccustomed to pushing off like that and it hurt for a little while. But at the same time the pain in my lower back and calves went away.
Issues like that are bound to happen while adjusting to a new foot strike. That is one of the reasons why Superfeet come with a 60 day return policy.
They helped me so much that I got some for my dad who has similar problems to me. They stopped him from shuffling and his stride is a good eight inches longer with the Superfeet insoles.
