Podiatrists are using orthotic insoles for their patients for decades. They do this because orthotic insoles offer the best solution for people with sensitive feet, including those with foot pain, diabetes and arthritis.
Unique features for your health
Total Support Orthotic Insoles are biomechanically engineered and have unique features that improve mobility, comfort and help relieve heel, foot, knee and lower back pain. Anatomical arch support improves foot and leg alignment and helps ease stress and pain caused by flat feet, bunions, arthritis or diabetes.
Pain Relief for most causes of foot pain
Our brand new, patent pending, deep heal seat technology, that is padded with gel, helps relieve heel pain, plantar fasciitis and is super beneficial for people suffering from arthritis, tendonitis and heel spurs. So basically these insoles are your all around magic cure. Try it yourself…
Why Total Support Orthotic Insoles?
Most replacements insoles offer some kind of motion control and stability. But that’s all that our insoles have in common with them. Our brand new Total Support Orthotic Insoles feature a 3D-Modulation system, that provides varying degrees of hardness beneath key areas of the foot. This changes the ground forces reaching the foot during activities and results in increased performance and superior comfort while helping to reduce over-pronation, a common issue that causes foot, leg and back pain.
I wanted to replace those insoles with a pair that offered me ball-of-foot support, heal support, arch support and didn't really "feel" like it was offering it. These insoles fit the bill.
While I do need insoles that offer me lots of arch support I've never been able to find any that didn't feel like a small rock pressed up agains my arch.
These guys make my otherwise casual shoes feel like great walking shoes. They make do exactly as they advertise without feeling too obvious.
These can work for casual, athletic and/or almost any other shoe.
Need new insoles? Look no further.
PROS for Total Support:
-It offers a lot shock absorption in the heel area
-It has very good arch support
-It has a rigid plastic base/frame (the light gray in the picture). This is a feature found on more expensive insoles like Superfeet and offers more support overall
-It is medium stiffness, just right, not too firm and not too soft
-It has a matte black color and matches almost any shoe
-Overall the Total Support Insoles are the best insoles I have tried out of at least a dozen. They provide total support (heel, arch, etc.), have all the bases covered. It is not deficient in any one area and the best all-around insole. Some insoles are better in the heel, others in the arch, this one is excellent all-around.
CONS:
-Can’t think of any, maybe price, but it beat out more expensive insoles like Superfeet so this a minor issue.
CONCLUSION: I painstakingly tried the Total Support Insoles against every insole I own (one insole brand in the left shoe, another one in the right shoe, and went for a walk); every time these were the best, often by a wide margin. A close runner-up was the Sof Sole Fit Series (which come in Low Sole, Neutral Sole, or High Sole corresponding to feet with Low, Medium, or High Arches, respectively). The Sof Sole Fit Series is a bit thinner and might work better in shoes were there isn’t a lot of space for an insole.
FINALLY someone recommended trying insoles and specifically recommended these.
I know people have many different causes of IT band syndrome leading to knee/hip pain so maybe it won't cure everyone but for me, I can happily report that I'm playing 2-3x/week with NO IT band soreness/pain and am completely cured of my knee/hip issues. I'm also back to running like I used to and neglecting my IT band stretching exercises, but my physical therapist doesn't have to know that ;-)
If you're having issues like I did, don't even think, just buy this product. The 20-30$ is worth the saved days of pain/discomfort/feeling like you're a million years old, following runs.
NOTE: replace them every six months. They mash flat, especially if you're "differently weighted" like me. They aren't that much, and your feet, knees, etc. will thank you.
I will be buying another pair of these......
