You have an ASMR type voice. Extremely relaxing listening to you. These insoles are awesome and I highly recommend them. I've used them for years because of plantar fasciitis, especially when I take my trips to Disneyworld and walk for days.
Thank you! I would love to try out ASMR. Idk how to film it and record at the same time. Might make take some brainstorming.
You don’t want painful feet at Disney Land 👏🏼
@@kaybriellen You are almost recording ASMR as it is. Just need to bring a microphone close to you and speak even softer. Also go into great details with the subject(s) you are talking about (i.e. shoes in this case, the padding, stitching, color options, etc) to purposesly create a long video. Soothing voices = trust and relaxation. With trust and relaxation comes a larger and happier audience. At least that's my take on it.
Superfeet need to hire you. Your video is better than anything on their website or elsewhere!
It would be cool if they put it on their website :)
K Briellen I’ll ask them, so let’s see 😉
Seriously....the best footbed explanation ever. Thank so much. Brilliant 👍👍🤘
Excellent coverage on the types of Superfeet insoles. Went to the podiatrist and she suggested I get them for my foot problem, but she gave me 3 choices (Green, Berry, or Blue). Saw your video, went to the store and tried all 3, and got the Berry.
So glad I could help!
Bought the original for my planter fasciitis. No exaggeration, immediately helped take the pain away.
I am so glad to hear that!
Just started working at Dicks Sporting Goods and in the footwear section there is a wall of this insoles brand but I really didn't understand if what was the purpose of the colors, how they work and most important how to use them. Your video is really helpful, and I feel more comfortable now that I understand what each insole is for and how to explain it to customers. Thank you for the video!
Below The Knee is also hiring
I also leave in the original insoles as I love that slight extra snug feeling. I have tried these insoles without the original insoles inside and they work great…but honestly I get the same benefit and feel with the original insoles inside as well…just a more snug feel.
I am using Nike shoes which have very slim insoles…so it really depends on the size of the original insoles as some shoes come with much thicker insoles.
These Superfeet insoles are amazing. I use the Orange High Impact for one set of shoes and the Green High arch Support for my other pair. I LOVE these insoles. These Superfeet insoles inside my shoes make them a match made in heaven for my feet. 🙂
Finally someone who explain it properly thank you!
Wish Superfeet would work with me! Thank you for your feedback!
Thank you! Very helpful, I need to remember that there is time needed to break the insoles in.
you are so welcome! Yes, please take time to get use to them
OMG my ASMR was activated during this video.
LMAO SAME
Dang. I was thinking it and then I read this comment haha. Love it for the people that actually can appreciate your comment.
Bought the blue ones for plantar fasciitis about 5 years ago. Since wearing these in my work shoes 4 times a week the pain has been gone
i like your vast knowledge on the product, makes me feel
comfortable buying and even cutting them down to size.
First week felt awkward wearing the blue. Now I’ve been wearing these for years and feel better and haven’t felt pain in my joints.
U have flat feet?
When you say awkward, do you mean they were painful? I bought the blue ones because I have a medium/normal arch, but it was quite painful when I wore them so I assumed something was wrong
Excellent presentation. The best on CZcams. I just came from my foot dr. and he recommended Superfeet insoles. Thanks
What a helpful video! And what a charming young lady.
Thank you!
Great info! I just bought new hockey skates and the guy said u have to get yellow superfeet, my friends all have them, so i bought in. I tried them out and they killed my arch so i had to take them out. Because of your video i now know what i need! Thank you for explaining! If more sales people would take the time like you do there would be satisfied customers. New subscriber! 😉 giving you the love back! 😋
I’m so glad I could help you just made my day so much better!
Good explanation of the various colors. Perhaps a bit too specialized - but the carbon is low volume, yet extremely rigid. I have found it is perfect for racing shoes. Plus, it is extremely light.
I have been a footwear specialist for over a decade. I wanted to cover everything I have learned over the years. I like the carbon. I have been trying the Cadence Insoles. I like them for comfort. I have a review on that. I explain the different types. I am really impressed with them. They also support small businesses. I have one linked in the description box :)
I’ve been using Superfeet insoles for over 20 years. I have pretty flat feet and my top 3 insoles are (depending on the type of shoe) carbon (gray), black and blue. I just love them..
Hey there - I too have very flat feet. Just started looking into these insoles. Would you mind sharing what shoes do you prefer to go with the Carbon / Black / Blue? thank you!
@@hippo71124 hi, I use the carbon and black insoles in 99% of my dress shoes. Some of my dress shoes are a bit roomier that others and that’s when I use the black ones. My less roomier shoes get the carbon ones. Carbon and black are my go to, and my blue ones are rarely worn. I wear dress shoes at work and I’m on my feet for about 8 hours a day. Oh man! having these insoles make my days better. I never use these insoles in any other shoes..my sneakers are comfy enough. The different between the black and carbon is definitely noticeable once you have them in your shoes and put your feet in. It all comes down to how much room you have in your shoes. Oh, I take out the original insoles in most of my dress shoes and toss them once I use them as a template. I hope this helps. Sorry! I went on and on.
@@biggboi1967 Plenty of helpful info! Thank you so much!!
@@hippo71124 👍🏽
I love them too! Have you tried their dress insoles? they have changed the name a number of times. It is a 3/4 insoles great for shoes that don't have a lot of volume. Thank you for the comment!
What a lovely voice! I've been looking into newer insoles for my retro sneakers. I have a mid-high arch and typically walk quite a lot throughout the day. I'm thinking Orange or Green is the way...
What's the best insole for workbooks when your walking on concrete all day
I was told to get blue by podiatrist while recovering from ankle fracture. I have plantar fasciitis in that foot but now I am getting more pain on hel more on right side
Thank you so much using steel toes been hurting my left heel only really bad I’m giving those green ones a try 👍
I have FLAT FEET and I use the black insoles in my work shoes. These insoles help me stay on my feet without fatigue for up to 9 hours.
useful info! Thanks!
That is good to hear! Please check out my cadence insoles review. They support small business. They have cushioning in the heel and forefoot. I think it would be a good one to rotate in. You can also support a small, local business. I have it linked in the description.
@@kaybriellen can we talk in direct messages?
Great information, I don't remove my shoe insoles, I just add the superfeet on top and so far no issues. Is that wrong?
Excellent video. Very information dense, and no time wasted. I also appreciate the lack of music. Thanks, Jodi Arias! ;)
Thank you! Please shop local for your next pair. I have a small business linked in the description :) Yes and no music I get it lol
Thank you. Your smile is intoxicating
Going to give them a try in my Clifton 6 thanks for the great video
Very informative
Super feet should use this video to promote their insoles.
I asked and they ghosted me lol so whatever. I have a good amount of views on this video. Thank you for watching and supporting my channel.
I also have another review on insoles. It is my Cadence Insole review. They have been really kind and supportive. They also support small businesses, which I am a huge fan of :)
@@kaybriellen I will check it out.
Hello, I have posterior tendinitis pain with a low/medium arch and will be doing a lot of running. Just want to confirm the which color I should buy. Thank you!!! Love the videos
Blue. Have you seen a good Podiatrist? I have a video that helps with the injury. Protect your injured limb just like you would a injured hand. We can't cast our feet or lower extremities. That video is the best thing. PT it important once the pain gets better and doctor clears you. I hope you're doing better. I am just now seeing your comment.
Which one of these insoles would you recommend for plantar fasciitis? Also my shoes are a size 10 women’s so which alphabet would i go for?
Thanks for the info. I may have been wearing the wrong ones! Will give the blue a try. Just wish they weren't so squeaky.
Put body glide on the bottom of the insole and it stops squeaking
@@kaybriellen Thanks for the tip. They're quiet now
Would the orange be better for jogging and playing basketball considering the cushioning?
I don't have insoles that come out of my shoes, how can I measure before I trim?
I have medium arch metatarsalgia capsulitis heel spur plantar fascitis... also I luve at a mountain so I have to go trough slopes hill... which should I get?
Orange, it has metatarsal cushioning.
So I have relatively flat feet, I trying to get back into running. I went to a Pediotry and they gave me insole but they really hurt the arches in my feet after a few months of wearing and running with them. What color would you recommend? Also will I be able to use the same color for long distance hiking?
I would recommend the blue insole. Sorry for the late reply. CZcams didn’t notify me when you left a comment.
Great video, very informative.
What would you recommend for women's sneaker wedges?
You could do Superfeet dress deluxe insoles
Hi, I have high arches. So I’m going orange or green. Recently, I’ve been dealing with posterior tibial tendonitis. Stay with orange or green?
If you want cushion I would say orange. If not then the green will be fine. I have a link in my description of where to buy them from a local store in my town. I would also recommend checking out my Cadence Insole review. I think you would really like the High Volume one.
Please support small business.
Hi, great video. One thing I’m not sure that I understand is that do you need to have two different kinds of insoles, one for walking and one for running? Or is there a multi-purpose insole that super fee sells? I was looking at the super feet green carbon but I think that one’s just for sports if I’m correct, so I was going to go with the standard green. What do you think?
I have the "all purpose" pair. I bought two pairs, one for my running shoes, Hoka and Asics and one for all regular waling tennis shoes and dress shoes. So far, so good. BTW, the all purpose are the black ones.
@@porkchop3094 Thanks 😊
Sooo good becn wearing using them for 30 years in my vasque. Sundowners??
Wow nice great review I need it but gone waite
I have 2 pairs of hiking shoes that I could never wear because they are discontinued and when I try walking in them my feet lift up/slip in the back so they are not stable to for hiking or running etc.
Normally I wear a size 9 in every shoe/brand including this one Merell and it seems I need a 8.5
My question is I saw these superfeet insoles at my pharmacy at the hospital I go to and was wondering if the green insoles will fill in the back of the shoes enough to make them secure and solve the heel slippage?
Any help would be appreciated.
I would try the green or the orange. They take up the most space. It could help with heel slippage.
So i currently use a different pair of inserts and it doesn't work too well for me. In regards to taking a break and taking out the inserts when breaking them in, should I have my regular shoe inserts on stanby or the other inserts I'm currently using?
It is up to you. You can try either one. If you're already use to the other ones you can swap them.
Thanks, great review.
Hey i have an important question. I skateboard and i have to make sure my feet stay as deep into my shoes to prevent ankle rolls. Most stock insoles are EVA foam or something like that but theyre thin and make sure your foot sits low and snug but no arch support. Would the blues or even the berry soles be okay? I have ANS and good arch supprt seems to keep it out the way. Thanks🙂
Yes the blue or carbon insoles would be great
which kind should i get bc my big toes are bad because of turf toe playing soccer so do u ha e any that are stiff. like carbon fiber type stuff?
The green and blue are stiff.
Great analysis
Plantar fasciitis is almost always caused by tight calves. Stretching routine and a lumpy foam roller will fix it. Tight calves force all the work into foot dorsal.
Yeah true if body is overusing certain muscles due to imbalance of alignment. I think ever since I started wearing Superfeet green and Powerstep Pinnacle insoles, I’m using less calf muscles, and overall leg muscles. I feel more efficient so it results in no foot pain. Also I feel like I’m saving a lot of energy and less hungry at work lol
Sorry to bother you, but I do a lot of walking and standing, which color would be best for me? Thanks
Do you have a high, medium or low arch?
I'd say closer to Medium.
Darin N get the blue
Fantastic Review!!!
What about if you have flat feet but work in warehouse were your doing a lot of standing or walking all day and have plantar fasciitis
Check out my Cadence Review insoles. They might be a little bit more comfortable
Mine are yellow. Whats up with that.
What about the black one. I am reading conflicting info everywhere. I read black is for flat feet, The store clerk where I bought them was knowledgeable. Did I buy the wrong color. These things cost 50 bucks, and really the info really is conflicting on what color should be bought
I think the black are really thin so they should be fine for flat feet. We don't sell them at my store so I am not super familiar with it. I would of recommend the blue, but I have flat feet and have worn all of them. Just take the time to get use to it.
I've tried the green foot insole (high arch) and don't recommend it. People with flat feet should use low arch or medium arch foot insoles. It just depends. Try finding out what kind of flat feet you have because there are different kinds and then try finding the best foot insole for you. I didn't know this and only realized after I bought the most reviewed foot insole on Amazon. lol Blue superfeet is medium arch and the black ones are made for low arches. I'm going to try the black ones soon. Right now I use Samurai Insoles which their brand is specifically made for flat feet and so far so good.
Thanks for posting and answering questions. How about insoles for Altras size 14v
I would get the cadence low volume insole size I. Please call the retailer Below The Knee at 706-332-3552. These can't be sold over the internet, but you can order by phone. Support local if you can!
Thank you, this is very helpful :)
You are very welcome. I have a small business linked. Help out where and when you can :)
So if I wanted to fill out a sneaker which is half a size bigger, the green would work best ?
The green or orange would take up the most space
Which one is best for flat feet?
Hi😊 loved your video, I’m over here in England, I need some insoles for my walking boots, I walk about 5 to 6 miles a day and suffer from Achilles tendonitis on the upper part and sometimes lower part, what superfeet insoles would you recommend? I have a picture of me standing up and I think I have overpronation on my left foot...I’ve just come back from a walk wearing sorbothane double strike insoles which were good, but maybe superfeet can provide an even better insole? Thoughts? 😊
I would recommend the green or orange. They will give you the most heel lift.
Hope that helps!
K Briellen thanks 😊 I’ve ordered the orange over here, expensive at £31 a pair ($38) 😤😤😤
@@WayneMusicianUK They are $49.99 over here in the U.S
Great videos very informative I will get the blue thank you🙏 😀
Glad it was helpful!
Do you take out your old inserts and put in the new ones?
yes
thanks for the video:) in your experience do you think the different sizes are mainly just the length?
for example I tried the size D which is for 7.5-9 and it was the exact same length as my stock snowboard boot insole, but my boot is a size 10 US men... Im wondering if I should go with the size D, or the size E which is in the recommended size range and trim it.
Basically is the heel/arch rear area different between sizes or more just a longer toe area. Sorry for the drawn out question and thanks again!
Your heel should sit nicely in the heel cup, support starts on the medial side of the heel, the support shouldn't be too far forward.
If you're able to get fitted I would recommend it and shop locally. In the video I explain how to fit yourself and trim the insoles. Which, it sounds like you need to go with the E and trim to fit. The insoles needs to fit your foot properly.
@@kaybriellen Hey thanks for the reply... Yes you were correct E was the right size and I had to trim them!
So the orange is for high Arch too? I have really high Arch but would love more cushion
Yes it would be the most cushioned insole they have for high arches. Cadence Orange insoles are amazing and way more cushioned. Try them out!
Im an electrician I'm on my feet for 12 15 hours a day I'm flat footed. And I recently be so exhausted with lower back pain and heel pain. What insole would be the best
the blue insole would work best for flat feet
Thanks for info !!!!
I have flat feet so u recommend the blue one? Cause my orthopedic said to get the green?
I vote blue, but always take medical professional advice. The blue is made for lower arches. Try to get fitted in your area if you can. Shop local
How about standing for 12hrs or more just a softer sole with support??
Are you asking for an alternative insole that is softer with support? If so, I recommend the Cadence insoles in blue or orange.
Really helpful. I love wearing Birkenstocks. Do you have any idea which insole would give me that same feeling? Thanks!
What kind of arch do you have?
@@kaybriellen Normal a bit on the low side.
@@KaylaLahti the blue one would be good
best are the soft black, black, grey, soft blue, blue, bronze, orange
Nice job, girl.
Great video,
Glad you enjoyed it! I put a lot of work into it :)
I have normal arches but I have Knee arthritis. Which one ?
I would do the green or orange. Depends if you would like to have more cushioning in the foot foot. I have a local business linked in the bio. Shop local if you can!
Thank you so much
thanx for such info
Most welcome
Can I buy in Germany?
I have a medium arch but overpronate. I want them for use in my running shoes. What would you suggest?
Probably the Berry or the Blue :)
I got the berry. And I really like them but they made my shoes about a 1/2 size too small, so hello blisters! 😞
did you take the insoles out of the shoe before you put the superfeet in?
Yes
I could never get the "green" to not be painful... Insufficient arch support + a hard stiffb footbed😑
Please try the Cadence Insoles. I have a specialty footwear store linked in the bio! Those might be more of the feel you are looking. They are just as supportive, but have nice polyurethane cushioning on the forefoot and heel.
thanks very helpful
Thank you!
Which one for trail running and over pronation?
Well, all of them. Do you have a more specific question? These are all based on arch types. Do you have a local store in your area that can fit you? shop local if you can
thank you for this !
Glad I could help
Thank you for watching. I am thinking about doing an update insole video.
@@kaybriellen I'd watch it!
I’m 6’7 and I dunk a lot and at my size I’m 245 pounds so a lot of force on my shins
Yea did you find some for you
what size shoe do you wear? I think they go up to a size 15
Osteo arthritis in both feet with bone spurrs ankle arthritis left worse 4 surgerys on this foot 1rst was small toe bone spurr 2cnd plantar fascia release bone spurr removal 3rd more bone spurr removal on top hunkers 4th tarsal tunnel release and fascia because of scar tissue
How do you compare these against enertor with d3o technology?
I have no idea what those are.
@@kaybriellen czcams.com/video/y-fsmY8K6Dg/video.html
such a gentle lady! where's black and carbon? and new run series? :)
I have tried the carbon and run comfort. The carbon is a really thin insole with a high arch. The run comfort is really comfortable it takes up a little bit of space. I like the run comfort. You can still get support and enjoy the cushioning of the shoe.
What’s the best one to prevent pronation?
They are all good. It depends on your arch type. I explained how to choose in the video. Good luck!
Do I need to trim size D if I am a size 8 man?
Possibly, I would take out the footbed and see if they match up
So what am I supposed to buy for a size 11
Size E or F if your foot is wide. Please shop local if you can. I have a small business linked in the description.
I wish you could do a give away of the inserts...they are so expensive...
You are a Democrat?
@@erictrippe2778 you’re so funny
Can you compare the Superfeet flex insoles
They are less rigid. It is a good introduction into insoles.
What about power step?
I love you
do any of these work for a 2E width or Altra shoes?
carbon works great with minimal shoes
the low arch Cadence Insoles would work great with those! I will send you a link where to get them. They have a wider toe box to accommodate Altras.
Please call the retailer Below The Knee at 706-332-3552. These can't be sold over the internet, but you can order by phone.
belowthekneeshoes.com/product/cadence-low-volume-insole/
Do i have to buy 1 shoe size up to fit super feet insole?
no you can trim them to fit the shoe
take out the insole to the shoe and trace it and trim it if you need to
What would be the best superfeet for someone with a low or nonexistent arch?
The blue one is good or try the run comfort in green. I’ve been using the women’s version and have been loving it!
Black superfeet insoles are for low arches and blue is for medium if you buy the black ones let me know lol
What if you wear a 2e wide shoe. I can't wear regular too narrow or 4e is too wide of shoe. So 2e fits really well as far as width. Im thinking about getting the green, would I get the regular green ?
They make a wide version in the green :)
Do they fit Keens well?
Yes, they do!
Thank you for the information! And you're a beautiful lady.
I'm a size 13 so the F fits perfectly
how far down the insole are you supposed to draw and trim
You need an insole to trace it with. I would never cut on the line. Once you cut it you can't undo it. I would keep trimming till it fits in the shoe. Be careful of trimming it too short.
@@kaybriellen this is what I'm talking about
imgur.com/a/d0smChm you can the denture of my foot traced along where I couldn't keep cutting because of the stabilizer cap
@@sdtqwe4ty7742 Does it not fit in the shoe? It should maintain the shape of the insole that came out of the shoe. I wouldn't keep cutting it.
What size did you buy and what size do you wear?
Also I normally just trim the the forefoot of the insole and that's it
@@kaybriellen I looked it up this is technically forefoot but it seems to go further then you think
From the superfeet box:
files.catbox.moe/fgotfq.jpg
Great video. Would a person with low/flat arches ever consider a high profile insole?
you can it will just take some time to get use to it. I would go for the blue if you have flat arches
you didn't mention the copper insole :-(
