Total Support Max Shoe Insoles(FSA&HSA Eligible)Orthotic Metatarsal Arch Support Inserts, Absorbs Shock,Reduces Over-Pronation,Conforms to Foot, Deep Heel Cup Women's 11-12.5.5/Men's 10-11.5

I have flat feet and severely overpronate. I have worn custom orthotics for about 10 years but as I got more athletic and fit those orthotics wit the style made stopped working. I was actually in more pain when wearing the orthotics than barefoot. I lost a lot of weight and am more fit that I have ever been., Went to a new podiatrist who automatically talked me into getting her $400 custom orthotics and she wanted me in the Brooks Beast. In no way would listen that I was not comfortable at all. So got a refund and off to an orthopedic surgeon who finally had answers and #1 for him was Spenco Total Support Insoles. I wear a neutral New Balance running shoe and he said the problem had been I had been buying shoes to fit the orthotic and it should be the other way around. The moment I stood on these insoles in his office I felt support and comfort. We trimmed them to size and my feet have been granted a new life. I get such support, stability and comfort from these orthotics. Honestly better than I ever got from custom orthotics. It is important to note these are not orthotics to be worn just for comfort. They are strong, durable and rigid meant to provide that needed support for the overpronator. There is rigid arch support with a deep heel cup that has a ton of cushioning. When I started wearing these I felt so great I exercized and walked ant least 5 miles a day for a week and overdid it. Needed a short break before easing back in. With any new orthotic you must give them a break in period. And as I said I get more support and comfort with these than with $400 custom orthotics. Another note, when I first wore these they squeaked which I read was a common thing with new orthotics. I put some moleskin under the heel which silenced it some but they just needed to be worn in and now the squeak is fully gone. I am rather stunned at what a high end product these are and also how durable. I have been suffering with pain for no one would help me get the correct orthotic and understand what I truly need. Till this doctor. Finally no more pain and no more buying product after product to try. But remember don't overdo at first and ease into these. These are very structured with a lot of support. But they will help. Let your feet and body adjust. I can't recommend them enough.

I am a bigger guy(350lbs) and have been searching for who knows how long for a pair of insoles that actually work. I have flat feet and its very hard as you know to find an insole that isn't way to aggressive on the arch support. These support my feet and are crazy comfortable. I'm on feet for 8 hours a day working in the landscape industry and finally my feet aren't killing me at the end of the day. They are very true to size unlike some of the other bigger companies claim to be. They are easy to use and insert. The thickness of the foam sits perfectly in my running shoes to not cause the shoes to fit tight.

After trying many different insoles for my husband, I'm pretty certain that the Spenco Total Support Max insole is one of the best otc insoles out there. I can't tell you how many different types of insoles I've purchased for him as he has suffered for quite some time with the outer edge of his foot hurting him. After I felt the firm arch area of these orthotics, I wasn't sure if my husband was going to tolerate them. He has always walked on the outside of his feet and has suffered from a lot of back pain and the first day that he wore these, I was sure he would take them off and complain that they hurt his feet, but he didn't!! He said they felt good and that his back was hurting way less than ever before, and he wasn't limping from foot pain either....even after a 10 hr work day in steel toed boots. When he first tried these on, I noticed right away how much better his posture looked and then he looked at me in total astonishment by how correct his feet were positioned and how good they felt. I should note that he has medium to high arches. I suffer from plantar fasciitis and a Morton's neuroma on my right foot, a callous ( or undiagnosed bone spur) on the ball of this foot, and I've also broken the same foot in two different places on two separate occasions. I also have high arches. These inserts have great arch support and they are a full foot insole, which it's what we prefer. My arches weren't sore after wearing these in my work boots all day, that area felt great...I do wish that they had more padding in the ball of the foot area, but that was only an issue with my problematic right foot, as I have no complaints with the left foot. After about 6 or 7 hours my 2nd and 3rd toes were slightly pained by my neuroma, but not as much as they have been on prior occasions. These insoles did not make my shoes tighter, nor did they cause the top area to feel snug. My work boots are big to begin with and even after inserting these they are still very roomy. I don't think they take up much room at all. Both myself and my husband will continue to wear these.

I don’t normally write reviews, but I had to on these insoles. I’m 75 years old had numerous shots in my ankle and was told I needed surgery. I wear the. Spenco flip-flops all the time and they’re the best they align your foot your ankle and everything so I thought I would try these insoles. I bought one pair put them in my shoes and they are the best thing that ever happened. I know everybody’s different but honestly, it’s worth a shot. They are really really good. I’ve tried every pair of BROOKS, ASICS and Hokas they were ok BUT then I put these insoles in those shoes and they are truly truly amazing pain is gone.

I have severe overpronation causing ankle and knee pain, and I’m a nurse and runner so I’m on my feet all day. I have tried many different inserts, including custom-made from a podiatrist. Spenco Max are the only "off-the-shelf" insoles that have rigid/firm arch support that don’t squish under my feet (versus flimsy plastic or gel insoles that give into my ankles rolling inward). I can put these in sneakers without the shoe feeling too tight. Even after sweating all day, they haven’t held onto any odor. I wear size 8 and the women’s 7-8.5 worked perfect for me. Highly recommend

Although they don't work for me, I gave them 5 stars because they are very well constructed, and MUCH nicer than the rip-off $44-$54 Superfeet insoles. (I think the people who make Superfeet are no different than the Epi-Pen makers!) The reason the Spenco Total Support Max don't work for me is because this model is more like an orthotic. It is very rigid for my neutral/medium arches. They work great when I am walking, however, when simply standing, I can tell there is too much arch support for me. I called Spenco, and the customer support rep said that the Max is indeed more of an orthotic, and that if I liked the support, but don't need an orthotic, I should exchange them for the Total Support Original, which flexes in the arch. They also alternatively offered me a full refund, even though I didn't buy them from them directly, because they have an unconditional guarantee. Wow! That's the way shopping should be! When I bought these, I also bought Superfeet Green at the same time, because they are all the rave at places like REI. But, there really is no comparison. Superfeet Green simply has a top fabric over closed-cell foam, with the addition of a plastic mold under the arch and heel. That's it. The Spenco Total Support Max has three layers - an anti-microbial top fabric, foam, padding, and a plastic mold under the heel and arch. They also have 3 strategically placed pads on the very bottom below the plastic. Another nice thing about the Spenco insoles is that they have vent holes under the ball of the foot, and I can tell you that these made a huge difference in my leather Keen Citizen boots. The stock insoles, like the Superfeet insoles, had no holes under the ball portion, and when I removed the insoles after wearing them at work all day, they were soaked with sweat. When I ran my fingers across the footbed of the shoes, my fingers were dripping. While I did not wear the Superfeet insoles for that long, I could see they would do the same thing, and I can see how the moisture would affect the close-cell foam of the insole, as well. But, this did not happen with the Spenco insoles. The footbed of the shoe was not wet at all when I removed them, and the insole itself was not soaking wet, either. I honestly can't believe having holes in the insoles would matter that much, because I would think the moisture of the sweat would still be there, but apparently holes in the insoles make a huge difference. How the makers of Superfeet can justify charging so much more for their product when it's easy to see how much cheaper it must be to make than the Spenco product smells like pure greed to me. I prefer to support Spenco because they produce a better product AND at a fair price. I returned the Superfeet Greens I ordered, and am in the process of an exchange with Spenco the Total Support Max model I bought for the Total Support Original model, as Spenco's customer service rep suggested.

I have been experiencing pain on the outside of my left foot for a couple of months. After researching the issue, I believe that my weight shifts to the outside of my foot(Supination). A couple of sites recommended these inserts to help alleviate my "foot roll". I am really hope they would help as to not have to spend alot of money on doctor bills. My inserts came mailed in a "bubble envelope". Due to this (I hope), the insert's clear plastic container was quite dented and the top was open. Everything looked ok when I took out the inserts and inspected them. The inserts were larger than my shoes that I wanted to place them in. I checked the packaging and the inserts to see if there was a size listed. I did not see one on the inserts but the packaging said for 9/10 womens. I wear a 9 1/2 shoe. I debated on sending them back but decided to go ahead and trim them. There was no guide for trimming so I assume that the inserts truly are not meant to be trimmed. I can see from the other comments that others were in the same position. I inserted the them into my flats that I wear to work. The bottom of my feet felt great. I could also tell that my feet were more stable. However, due to the thickness, my shoes were tight on the top of my feet and toe areas. The back of the shoe did not come up very far over my heel. After wearing for a few minutes the shoes seem to loosen up a bit. After wearing them all day, I had to remove the inserts. The tightness of the shoes was putting too much pressure on my little toe of the left foot that I am having pain in. I am going to try them with another pair of shoes. Pros : 1) I could tell that my feet were more stable. 2) The bottom of my feet felt great. 3) Product seems durable. Cons: 1) Buy a smaller size. I had to trim way too much off the inserts to be able to get them in my shoes. 2) The thickness of the inserts caused my shoes to be too tight and caused rubbing on the sides and top of my feet. I am going to give them another try with different shoes. I think if I have shoes that are wider, then I will get some great benefit from these inserts. However, if they will not work with some of my work shoes, then it will not be worth the money spent,

Work excellent in my work boots; my feet feel a lot better after and 8 hore day.

Perfect

Vraiment impeccable avec une nouvelle paire de chaussures, je n'ai plus mal a la cheville. Je recommande

I was skeptical. I've been suffering from foot pain for the better part of a year and had a feeling it was plantar fasciitis, though I've not bothered wasting a doctor's time to tell me what I'm fairly certain it is. I've used 3 other inserts and none have been effective in reducing the pain. I always felt like there just wasn't enough padding to support me standing all day at work. These ones are... odd. They aren't any more padded than any of the other inserts I've used. In fact, the hard arch support feels much, well, harder than anything I've used, even inserts that market themselves as having arch support. It took me about a week of discomfort before my feet got used to these things. And I mean serious discomfort. Once I adapted to using them, though, night and day difference. The pain from standing and walking, even after I get home and take my shoes off, has decreased significantly compared to before. That in and of itself makes them worth the money. Only minor complaint is that they don't completely fill my shoe. I wear a size 12 and there's a gap of a couple millimeters between the edge of the insert and the edge of the shoe. I do notice this sometimes when walking but it's not a deal breaker. Just something to bear in mind if you have large feet.

Got size 13 but was way too long for my size 13 shoes

Perfect arch support, which results in less pressure on my spine. I'm tall and skinny with long narrow feet that needs strong arch support. These ones do it better than any off the shelf ones I've tried from my local chemist.
