Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I wanted to see the difference for myself so I bought the Pedag and the HappyStep Terrycloth insoles. I purchased both in (women’s)size 8 even though I am a true 9. Both brands fit perfectly in my size 9 shoes. As other commenters noted, the HappyStep brand is ever so slightly more cushiony, softer. The terrycloth seems a tiny bit thicker. The Pedag are slightly less flexible and a tad thinner—both the insole depth as well as width at the ball of the foot. But the differences are really subtle. If your shoes have a little room in terms of fit and shape/design, I’d go with the HappyStep (like the black loafers pictured). If the shoes are more snug and/or of a slimmer profile (like the black open-sided flats pictured), try the Pedag. Happy with both, so far.
