Superfeet Run Cushion Low Arch Insoles - Low Arch Support - Trim-to-Fit Inserts for Running Shoes - Professional Grade - 7.5-9 Men / 8.5-10 Women

I’m a marathon runner and have always loved the idea of Altras for their wide toe box—my toes can finally spread out the way they want to. But the zero drop and total lack of arch support were flaring up my low arch pain, especially on longer runs. I was getting that nagging ache along the inside of my foot and thought I might have to ditch the shoes altogether.Enter Superfeet’s low arch insoles—absolute game-changer. Now I feel supported, stable, and comfortable while still getting the natural toe splay that drew me to Altras in the first place. If you’re a runner with low arches trying to make Altras work, these insoles are 100% worth it.

Do you really need $50 insoles?? Well, they're worth it to me. I find most shoes very difficult to fit into between my higher arches, a compressed nerve and slightly wider foot. I put these in almost all my shoes and use them for pickleball where they truly get abused, and they hold up very well. For my normal around-town shoes, they'll last even longer. I just find that the cushion, arch shape and surface fabric all combine to make a great insole. I have yet to find anything more comfortable than these, where I don't notice the insole at all. Many others draw my attention in some way with the arch pressing my foot in the wrong spot or the fabric slipping around or some other issue that can be distracting - especially while trying to play a sport. These just feel good and improve almost any shoe I've tried them in. I'm a fan.

I had custom orthotics which was supposed to be by "one of the best" in my area with over 20+ years experience. Well.. that 20 years experience only led to slowing down my run time and causing swelling after walking and being on my feet all day at a convention. Unfortunately, the discomfort I felt was exacerbated by the fact that I was often in crowded spaces without adequate breaks. Another doctor told me there is a break-in period, but that never came, leaving me feeling discouraged and uncertain about the investment I had already made.Frustrated, I decided to give these new orthotics a try after I was recommended by my podiatrist to explore alternative options that might suit my needs better. So I did, following the swelling that occurred during my convention, feeling hopeful yet skeptical. I used these to run and I have improved my times significantly, and it doesn’t hurt my feet as much as before, which has been a huge relief. I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable they felt right from the start. I even bought a second pair for my other shoes, which has really made a difference in my daily routine. It's a fantastic alternative compared to $350 for custom orthotics, and I only wish I had made the switch sooner.

Good support. Wish there was more cushioning at the front.

Functional quality fit good arch support for foot health a comfort

Works very well but you need to reoplace yearly

Definitely recommend for flat feet to have a little more heel stability and avoid ankle pain.

I was extremely bummed given all of the rave reviews of these that they didn't work for me at all and caused discomfort. I have low arches and these protruded way too much. They caused pressure at a different point in my arch that I have not experienced with other low arch insoles. The cushioning is no different than much less expensive insoles and these just didn't seem to line up properly even though I cut them correctly and matched perfectly to my shoe. I still give these 3 stars because they do feel like a quality product and they might work wonders for the right person.
