Better than expected!
Great product. I was skeptical as I’ve only used custom orthotics since I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis. That said; I was not trying to spend hundreds again and wait weeks to get them in. I’ve worn the same pair of orthotics for too long and honestly haven’t found anything I’ve liked other than custom fit ones. Well; from the moment I pulled out my old inserts and added the new SOLE inserts; my feet actually felt happy. Not annoyed and in pain like I get with most shoes (if you have plantar fasciitis you know what I mean). Just satisfaction. They offer great arch support, nicely cushioned in all the right places and keeps me flat versus an incline with many other brands of inserts. I let the insoles get used to my feet for a few hours each day and over the last week of wearing them in very impressed. They fit my shoes well and as long as your shoes are loose enough it should be fine.

Comfort and fit
Best insoles I’ve ever had. I bought one pair and put them in my work boots. After two weeks they got even better so I bought another pair for my ariat boots. I have narrow feet so my boots always fit a little loose even when I buy b width. With these insoles I have a perfect fit and so comfortable.

Next-Level Arch Support with Innovative Design
I have previously used Superfeet Inserts for Plantar Fasciitis relief and found them effective. Wanting more insoles for different shoes, I explored other arch-supporting options and discovered SOLE. These insoles immediately impressed me with their functionality, providing just the right level of arch support—on par with many leading brands. SOLE stands out in its advanced construction. Unlike other brands that attach a rigid plastic to a foam base, these insoles integrate the soft and rigid portions seamlessly. This results in a consistent thickness from heel to toe, making them lightweight, easy to insert, and effortless to swap between shoes. They enhance natural foot movement where flexibility is needed while providing firm support where it’s required. There’s no excessive foam padding in the heel, just a well-balanced, effective design that feels great from the first step. After months of regular use, they still look and perform like new. Most importantly, they delivered instant relief from Plantar Fasciitis. The modern, minimal design is a bonus, complementing my footwear without looking bulky. I highly recommend them!

Not bad, not great, just good enough
I have had this pair of insoles going on several months in my boots and I have to say....These just don't have the same great feel of my previous pairs. The arch sits to far back for these to be worn long term and I can feel small inconsistencies (ridges and lumps) in the foot bed after an hour or so. The material under the toes is already starting to ball up and toe-holes are starting to form in the foam. Now, I've used Sole insoles for 15+ years while in the military. I didn't have to buy insoles very often due to their EXTREME DURABILITY and long term comfort. I swore by them. I had a pair in my rucking boots and field boots, used them on multiple deployments and in my garrison boots. Even recommended to my soldiers that had debilitating foot issues. In fact, I still have the first pair I bought in my hunting boots and they're still great. Maybe it's the fact that I have them in slip on work boots and not lace-up military boots. Perhaps it's just a fluke. Jury is still out on that. Sole hasn't lost my loyalty yet, and i don't dislike these enough to jump ship... But, if my next pair are this uncomfortable, I think I'll have to find another brand.

Great insert for those with arthritis in feet.
Great. Works well in my Brooks running shoes. Spent a long day walking being a tourist in museums and lots of walking on concrete

Try these insoles NOW.
These are very good quality insoles that provide great support with heal and metatarsal padding. I’ve worn insoles in all of my shoes for over 40 years, these are now in all of my shoes. I’m very active and these insoles are perfect for playing Pickleball and walking. I even put them in dress shoes when I’m forced to wear them. Best of all is that they are durable and comfortable at a great price.

Nice support and spongy
These soles have been life changing. My plantar facetious is so much better when I wear these.

First time with the Met Pad, not a fan but Love the ones without.
I've been using the regular Sole brand Active Thick insoles for a decade now, but this is the first time trying them with the Met Pad. After a couple of days with them in my Justin slip-on work boots, the arch and the outside edge of the ball of my right foot started hurting bad, and hasn't stopped for several months now. My left foot is fine. I'm not entirely sure if maybe I hurt my right foot and just don't remember, or if it's due to the Met Pad. I believe it's the Met Pad. Therefore, I heated up the right insole with a heat gun and reformed it to remove the pad, and it helped a little bit, but I'm still having sometimes severe foot pain on that side. I've stopped wearing my boots for a while and bought a new pair of Sketchers work tennis shoes. Hoping this will help with time. I plan on getting a new set of the regular insoles again, but without the Met Pad in the future, and I will keep buying them as needed for as long as they are still on the market because they have really helped me overcome some some very severe foot issues and pain since purchasing my first set in 2015. I'm 6'0" tall and have gained a lot of weight since 2021 after an almost deadly auto accident, as well as several surgeries since then to fix the stuff it screwed up, and I'm up to almost 300 lbs now. When I was on average ~230 lbs and working like a crazy person every day, the regular insoles would last me about a year. Hope this helps.

I purchased my first pair of SOLE Active Thick with Metatarsal Pads insoles over 2 years ago and they are still working well! I ordered the SOLE Active Thick Wide insoles this time (though Amazon seems to want to put my review under the narrower, Met Pad version) and wanted to share my initial impressions. I have a 4E width foot and typically favour KEEN boots and shoes because of their wide toe box design. Looking at the picture of the shoes you will notice that the KEEN Casual Oxford Hiker on the right side has the widest toe box of the three, wider than the KEEN Anchorage III Chelsea boot on the left, and even more so than the Clarks Morris Easy Chelsea boot in the centre. When I compare the new Wide version to the Met Pad version from 2 years ago (see other photo), the Wide is approximately 103mm across the widest part vs. only 95mm on the Met Pad version. I placed the Wide insole into the KEEN hiker (back to picture 1 again, on the right) and it seemed to be custom-made as it fit the inside of the KEEN shoe perfectly from edge to edge and heel to toe. Wearing the shoes felt very comfortable, though I haven't had them long enough to "break them in" and have them custom mould themselves to my feet through body heat and wear. One potential concern is that this Wide version does not seem to have the metatarsal pad like the ones I previously bought. I don't know if this will affect the comfort or longevity of this product but I will update over time if I notice any significant variances between the two products. For now, I am confident that this Wide version will perform much like its narrower sibling but just, well - wider. Excellent product for people like me with 4E wide feet and plantar fasciitis. Highly recommended!

Great insoles for my Planter Faacitis. It relieves my pain very well.

I have been wearing steel toed boots in the trades for decades now, and SOLE insoles make work boots the most comfortable over any other insert I have tried; not so much with cushioning (not even with the thick style), they work wonders for arch support of my flat feet . I would advise against heating them in an oven before using for the first time, as I have always had the best success by just putting them in new boots, making them only a bit uncomfortable for part of the first day, just like a new footwear break-in period. These SOLE insoles have always lasted the life of a pair of work boots, and often beyond where they can be moved down to, say, a pair of hiking boots; a new pair of work boots always gets a new pair of SOLEs with me. The 'active thick' style are also great for EE width boots, as I once even tried them in a pair of overpriced and uncomfortable CAT boots in regular D width, where they literally wore holes thru the sides!

I have been using this brand of insoles for at least the last 10 years of my life. I use to be able to buy them at Marks Work Wharehouse but they no longer sell so I buy them on Amazon now. I have size 13 feet and I never have to mold them to my because I already have deep arches. The chiropract recently told me that I had better feet than my brother and thought that was odd. I told him that I would have to credit to Sole insoles for that. They also have a great life span and sometimes will outlast my work boats that I have to wear everyday.
