My doctor suggested these and I am very glad he did. I have flat feet and I used to have shin splints all the time. Now, I am pain free and can walk whereever and as long as want to. I really like the cushioning and the fact that I do not really even feel the arch support. Looking at them, I thought the hard graphite bottom would be uncomfortable but actually just the opposite is true, these are very comfortable shoe inserts. l will buy this product again and recommend them to my friends.

I read where it says that these arch supports are for people with low to medium arches. I tried orthotic arch supports and have always found the hard arch support to be too uncomfortable.
These insoles were comfortable from the very beginning. I am amazed at how much cushioning I could feel in the heel area. I really did not feel the arch support at all but I know it is there because of the piece of graphite on the bottom.
Really comfortable insoles, I would recommend them to anyone who has a problem with firm arch supports and wants cushioning along with arch supports in one pair of insoles. (Posted on 2/13/10)
