Great inserts, love the leather.

I wanted a flat insert to slight raise one foot. It’s much simpler than modifying a whole show. This pad provides a little extra height and cushion on the side that needs it. The Pedag looks to be good quality that should last under my sweaty foot.(I use a full Superfeet insert insole on top of the Pedag for full comfort and support.)

I have a very old pair of leather boots that I adore. I desperately need an insole that works with them so I can wear them again. I took out the old insoles and measured them carefully. I compared the size chart and ordered the size that was the perfect match. When I got them, the new insole is significantly shorter than the old ones.I love the look and feel of these. I will reorder the next size up and keep my fingers crossed that they work! I need something thin and slick that won't grab my socks when I put on my boots. These are the perfect texture and thin enough that they will work wonderfully for my needs IF I can figure out the sizing!Also, I have been burned a lot lately with size charts. I can't tell you how many shoes I've ordered using the size charts and they've been totally off.I see that some reviewers say ordering 2 sizes up works for them?Edit--the next size up was still too short. I will come back and let you know if ordering 2 sizes up actually works.I'll update when I order the new ones!UPDATE-- Going up two sizes worked!! However, please know that sizing up doesn't mean you will get a wider insert. If you have a super wide foot, I'm not sure that this insert is going to function the way you want it to. I am just so very happy to have my old boots functional again. They are almost 40 years old now and all I've ever done is replace the laces once and the insoles this one time. They really do not make boots like they used to!!!I changed my original rating of a 3 to a 4 because I am very happy with the end results. It just annoys the heck out of me that it took so many attempts to get the correct size--especially since I followed their measurement guide. Knowing to go up two sizes is helpful and I would certainly buy from this company again if other shoes need their insoles replaced.I forgot to add that I finally ended up with a size 9 insert for a size 7 boot.

I have been purchasing these insoles for nearly ten years, and I am so glad that Pedag has not changed them. The quality and workmanship (made in Germany, still!) are unparalleled for the cost, which has fluctuated between $10-15 the past decade.They are thin, comfortable, and breathable, and a wonderful upgrade to any standard leather or synthetic insole (especially). I have even placed them in some of my "artisan" shoes (shoes in the category of $500+) because they simply cannot be beat in the comfort/breathability category. Once you break them in, they mold to your feet and are even more "cozy."Please keep in mind these are not for arch or heel support, nor will they significantly change the fit of a shoe (though for some shoes that are just very slightly too large, this can solve the problem). For the record, I actually like that these are thin and do not affect the fit, as I usually wear my shoes without socks.These insoles, however, do run small and narrow. I typically wear an EU 40-41 depending on the brand but need to order 42-43 for these insoles, so definitely size up 1-2 sizes when you order, perhaps even more if you have very wide feet (then trim to fit). Mine consistently fit right out of the box when I order two sizes larger.Thanks, Pedag, for continuing to offer such a high quality product! As long as you have this product unchanged, you will have my business. Highly, highly recommended.

I am very annoyed at how ridiculously undersized these are. I ordered size 13 and it has silly small. Huge gap at front and back, slid around.I ordered a size 15 figuring I could trim it down, but they fit perfectly into a size 13M shoe.Keep in mind these 13M shoes were too tight with the inappropriately thick insoles (marketing gimmick). So I ordered these reasonable insoles. With the size 15 insole now these shoes fit perfectly.

It barely fit on my boot and the insoles did not provide any confort whatsoever. Will be returning these promptly.
