Plantar Fasciitis Insoles for Men Women - Orthotics Inserts, Shoe Insoles Arch Support Flat Feet Inserts Work Boot Insoles for Standing All Day (Mens 9-9 1/2 | Womens 11-11 1/2)

First off, these are true to size. "9 - 9 1/2" fits snugly in both sizes and does NOT move around while you walk. I originally bought these for my work shoes (Hoka SR) to keep me going until I bought a new pair of shoes. No lie, after the first night of working with these insoles, my knees didn't hurt anymore and my feet didn't have that sharp pain along the tops like I had been getting. I also have a pair of 5.11s that would fatigue my entire lower half of my body after an hour or so of wearing them. I've bought a pair for those as well and I can now wear them all day and not feel a thing. Truly a great product and I highly recommend these for anyone who needs arch support or has shoes that still have life in them but the insoles have quit on them.

After spending more than $50 on a pair of insoles from a running store that actually made my tendinitis worse, I decided to try Walk-Hero Brand. The fact that they were affordable and more than 70,000 people had tried these insoles and rated them favorably was my main rationale. After taking them out of the box, I first put them directly under my feet (not in the shoe) to see whether the arch hit comfortably in the correct place. It did and the arch was not too high or stiff (like it felt in the running store purchase) which the salesperson insisted was how it should feel prior to “breaking in.” I’m not actually buying these insoles for running, they are for a pair of winter boots with a flat footbed. I will do a fair amount of walking in these boots throughout the winter (2-3 mile hikes several times per week). I’m very happy with my purchase, especially since I can walk comfortably in them immediately. They don’t take up too much space in my boot and provide enough arch and heel support without over or under doing it.

I walk a lot in my work boots and this wa the perfect insert. Feels like walking in air and feet doesn’t hurt after all day of walking

I was walking with a lot of pain in my heels and feet in general. I purchased various kinds of inserts, but none offerred me much relief. I felt I was on the way to losing my mobility. Then I bought a Powerstep insert, noting it is designed for Plantar Fasicitis, and immediately my walking became less painful and my strides longer. There's just something about having the right insert. Yes, these are expensive, but if they help someone be able to walk, it is well worth the money. I will be ordering more, as the budget allows.

I’ve been using these arch supports and they’ve made a huge difference in my day-to-day comfort. They provide steady, reliable support without feeling bulky, and I noticed less foot fatigue within just a few days. Whether I’m on my feet at work or running errands, they keep my arches lifted and reduce a lot of the pressure I used to feel. They fit easily into most shoes, stay in place, and feel durable. Definitely a great option if you need extra comfort and support throughout the day!

Cradles the heal and supports the arch nicely--a real plus. It fits the two pairs of shoes I tried it with. (Men's size 9.5) The negative for me is it's unexpectedly hard shell w/ a very thin cushion layer, and I need it to be soft to cushion the heel as I walk. The bulk also made it impractical to use in my LL Bean slip-on deck-moccasins. Good choice for support of a non-injured foot... hiking, etc. Not so good for MY plantar fasciitis.

Reviews for: - Samarai Insoles: FIVE STARS - WalkHero Insoles: FIVE STARS - ValSole Insoles: FIVE STARS - SB Sox PF Relief Socks: FIVE STARS - Koprez PF Sleeve: FOUR STARS - Vibit (purchased directly instead of thru Amazon): THREE STARS - Tisscare foot massager with heat (purchased earlier somewhere else): FIVE STARS My experience with Plantar Fasciitis (PF): I’m 64, female, retired for one year, and lead an active lifestyle. My normal routine includes a 4-5 mile walk every morning, pickleball 5x per week, and golf when I can. PF symptoms showed up suddenly about two months ago – suddenly it hurt too much to walk very far and pickleball was excruciating. It affected both feet, but the pain in my right foot was significantly worse. In spite of all the products that promise fast relief, I learned that managing PF is a multi-step process. Here's what worked for me – in order of implementation: - I threw away five pairs of worn-out running shoes and started wearing my newest pair all the time. - I quit going barefoot and now wear shoes all the time, even inside the house. - I quite wearing dress shoes or sandals (easy for me since I’m retired). - I started stretching my heels/calves multiple times per day, with and without a step. - I rolled my foot over a frozen water bottle or a small hard plastic ball with spikes on it. The plastic ball seems to work better, and soon I was using it several times per day. - I bought three different pairs of PF insoles so I could use them all the time. I couldn’t really tell any difference between the three brands I tried, but I think the ones with deep heel cups (WalkHero and ValSole) are better, and those are the two I use most of the time. - I bought SB Sox and now wear them on both feet during all waking hours. - I tried the Koprez Sleeve, but found that it was uncomfortable to wear all the time. I tried wearing it on a walk, but it actually became more painful after about ¼ mile. I tried wearing it for pickleball, and it was wonderful. The Koprez Sleeve allows me to keep playing pickleball. - I tried foam rolling my calves. I think it helped, but it was really hard on my arms. So I quit. - I bought the Vibit, hoping that I could use it on my calves as well as my feet. It vibrated as advertised, but it was actually harder to use than a foam roller and it didn’t seem more effective. It felt good on my feet but I couldn’t tell if it helped or not. Following the directions requires 15 minutes per foot dedicated to using the massager (no multi-tasking is possible). I still use it occasionally if I want a few extra minutes without sitting down with the Tisscare, but I don’t think this purchase helped with the PF. I have also used the Vibit for other things (IT band, back, arms), and it offers a nice massage. - I started using a Tisscare foot massager with heat that we already owned. It seemed to help a lot, and it was easy to use as I could just sit there and let the massager do the work on both feet at the same time while I read or used my phone. I’m still using it 2-3x per day for 20 minutes. Very much worth the money and I will buy it again if it quits working. Results: - It took about four weeks to research, purchase, and start using all the products listed above. During that first four weeks, I quit my morning walks and cut back on pickleball (I could not play two days in a row). Pain was intense, especially after pickleball or at the end of the day. - Within a couple weeks, the morning pain was better, mostly because I stretched and rolled 2-3 times during the night (I wake up anyway). - After putting everything into place (about four weeks), the morning pain was pretty much gone and I started walking two miles in the morning. I still had pain if I played pickleball – and the pain continued for the rest of the day. - After six weeks, I was able to increase the morning walks to my normal 4-5 miles most days and experienced only minimal pain with pickleball. - It’s been about eight weeks, and I’m still continuing to work on it. Pain is minimal and I’m able to walk 5+ miles and play pickleball!

These are the best insoles I’ve ever purchased. I put them in my garden shoes which were very uncomfortable to wear for long stretches. Now I wear them all the time to walk the dog and do yard work. I got me a second pair and two for my husband as he works in a hospital and is on his feet 12 hour shifts. He says they really help. No need to cut them to fit as they come in your shoe size and you just slip them in and they are very sturdy and comfortable.
