PowerStep Pinnacle Maxx Orthotic Insoles, Maximum Stability & Comfort. Firm & Flexible Angled Heel Style to Help Flat Feet & Overpronation, Heavy Duty Inserts for Men and Women, Made in USA

These are great for high arches (although there is now a version specifically for high arches which I also wear). These were recommended to me some years back at a specialty shoe store by their pedorthist. I have tried others, mostly to save a little money, but keep coming back to these. They really are quite comfortable and supportive. I wear them in my running shoes as well as my regular footwear. These are not your drug store insoles. If you're having foot pain, knee pain, or back pain and are on your feet all day, chances are these will help. If you have existing shoes, just know that these will take up space (like any full insole) and likely make your shoes feel too small. Best to have a new pair of these to use when trying on shoes and will likely need to size up a half or whole size. I find that I size up some depending on the brand and type of shoe, and also that I buy wide shoes just for the wider toe box to prevent foot issues from squeezy toes.

I got these because my right foot has suffered from Plantar Fasciitus for the last few months, a condition I have never had before but that I made worse I think by going on hikes when overweight and pushing through the pain. By the time I realized it was a chronic pain it had already gotten fairly bad. I tried doing stretches and foot exercises to help and avoided putting weight on it for weeks, but nothing seemed to really help. I even went and got physical therapy (which proceeded to send me a $300 bill) which basically just gave me stretches to do which barely helped. So, desperate, I did two things. 1. I found shoes that were comfortable for me - 14 double wides with good arch support. 2. I got these inserts, which fit perfectly (size 14-15 ones) in place of the existing inserts in my shoes. I have only been using these for roughly a week and already the pain in my right foot has decreased significantly over time. The first 2-3 days I was wearing them it hurt more than it ever had, but after taking the time to walk with proper form I am already seeing the results. I can't speak for the long-term capabilities of this but the short-term effects have reduced my pain more in a week than in 1-2 months of me trying to cure it by things like reducing weight on my foot. I highly recommend these to anyone who had a similar problem as me - someone who has probably had misaligned feet for years due to being overweight for so long and finally developed plantar fasciitus due to sudden exercise. Just ensure you get the right style. These ones fit very well and have a strong enough arch to support my feet decently well even though I weigh more than 300 pounds. They have good support in the heel and a slight inner foot arch support that helps to angle your foot outwards more. Combined with shoes that properly allow your feet to move as they need to I think this is something I am likely to use for years to come.

It's been tough reading through all of these reviews trying to make a solid choice for insoles. I had my 8th spinal surgery in April. I awoke with neuropathy so bad I couldn't walk. A high arch developed after two months post surgery. Doctors had nothing to help me and my condition was determined to be permanent. So I got to work. Supplements, pushing through the pain. I walked and walked and worked on projects even though I was almost totally disabled. Seven months later and I was just able to hunt. But, before I went my attention turned to insoles for relief. Could they make a difference in my pain and could I even be comfortable. The journey started. I've now bought; Birkenstock's, Power Step Pinnacle Maxx, Sof Soles Fit, Sole DK Response, Sole Softec Ultra, Forms, New Balance Stability and a couple of others that I don't remember. In order of relief (for me); 1: Birkenstock Heeled Arch Supports (3/4 length). If you have a high arch as I do don't miss looking at these. They have superior support for the arch, heel (deepest heel cup) and metatarsal support is built right into the insole. They're especially useful in footwear without insoles. They work flawlessly in my Danner Rainforest hunting boots. Couldn't get any of the others to work in them. These can feel hard after a long day on them. Still, their fit is so worth it. 2: Power Step Pinnacle Maxx. Put these in my Danner Radical 452 and it was a perfect match. I had to buy 2 sizes bigger to make sure my arch matched the Maxx's. I also wear these in my Clark's, Ahnu's, Merrill Jungle Mocs, Ecco's and MBT's. The Powerstep Pinnacle Maxx, overall, are my number one choice. Major relief from pain. Wonderful support and great cushioning. 3: Sole Softec Ultra. Probably the best built of all of the insoles I've tried. No doubt, they'll last a long time. Not using these yet because I ordered my shoe size...wrong! I tried them in my proper size and the arches didn't line up. They were very uncomfortable. I'm awaiting a shipment two sizes larger than my shoe size. Then we'll see. For now my impression is they're not supportive enough. The heel and arch are made of a semi rigid EVA material. The only way they'll work is if I attach something under the arch to prop it up. The heat molding does little good if they're not high enough in the first place or if you need a more rigid support which I do. Well made but, so far, they don't work for me. This holds true for the DK Response too. 4: Solf Sole Fit. Good firm arch support but the forward part of the insoles is a soft EVA foam only that, I believe will breakdown quickly. Already is for my wife in just several weeks. 5: New Balance Stability. Everything was wrong about these for my feet. Not enough support in the heel or arch. The heel cup was thick yet not deep so they took up too much space in my shoes. They had a metatarsal pad built in but, for me, in the wrong place. 6: Forms. They fit quite well, had a sturdy arch and heel cup but are surprisingly thick. Very well made though. Needed two sizes larger to get the arch to align. Opted not to go ahead with these when i found the Power Step Maxx. I'll be settling with the Power Step Pinnacle Maxx and the Birkenstock's. I also purchased the Power Step metatarsal pads and they too made a nice difference in the Maxx's. They're small but let me tell you, with proper positioning, they can have a very positive affect on how your feet feel. Good luck in your search. Don't be afraid to ignore the sizes and fit the insole to your arch. You may have to trim them but for me it was the difference between great relief or none at all.

I bought a second pair so I didn’t have to change them out. They are very good for my flat feel and have helped with jogging and incline walking in addition to just everyday walks.

great on my feet !! have planter fasciitius , thumbs up !!

INSTANT RELIEF AND SUPPORT!! Immediately felt more aligned and supported when standing and walking. Helped relieve back and hip pain. Really aligns feet and ankles…..aligns you straight up to the leg, hips, back, neck.

These are pretty amazing and fit in all of my shoes. Even my hey dudes when I take out the original insoles. These were recommended by my doctor to help with my Tarsal tunnel syndrome. I still have the pain, however, it is not as bad as going without these!

Returned but still a great product although its a little expensive

Troppo piccole , il pacco era aperto, non vanno bene ...

For me these are the best insoles I could find till now and I am sorry that they are often not available and if take so long to arrive.

Good product, gave me the right support and can walk for miles without any problems.

I struggled with a collapsed arch and i've always had flat feet. However, after some running training, i found that pain was stopping me from running all together. These have kept my arches supported, i've since run nearly 250km in them in the past couple of months. If you're suffering flat feet and its causing you ankle strain, try these for sure!!

Le doy 5 estrellas por que a mi hijo le han funcionado muy bien, no han cambiado su firmeza, son cómodas, veremos cuanto tiempo duran, pero hasta el momento si han cubierto su necesidad, las recomiendo a quien tiene pie plano y su problema es específico del arco.
