Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have been wearing custom orthotics for years. I stand and walk on a concrete slab all day and it takes a toll. I have plantar fasciitis and my Achilles develops tendonitis from time to time. The custom inserts cost about $300 with the visits and fitting. They work but they aren't that comfortable and I need a backup pair. I ordered these to wear with a pair of inserts I bought here on Amazon that can be fitted at home after heating in the oven, thinking they would be more comfortable with them. When they arrived they were too thick to work with the inserts so I set them aside. Until one day when the other inserts had become hard and were bothering me. I had a short 4 hr shift that day so I put these in my walking shoes thinking I'd be uncomfortable but only for a few hours. What a surprise! It was like standing on a cloud, all soft and cushy! They conformed to my foot and were firm in all the right places. I wore them for about 12 hours and have continued to wear them every day in comfort. Now they are beginning to show some wear and aren't as cushy but for the price I'll just buy more. 6-9 months is well worth it. The only drawback is that I wear them with compression socks that don't breathe much so they, the inserts and my shoes tend to get stinky. I suggest you buy two pair and switch off every few days. Other than that I have no complaints, just happy feet.
