Go to Cotswolds or other reputable outdoor shop in the UK. You can get some very good advice and insoles. Especially at Cotswolds. Pricy but worth it. There is a particular brand of insole the name I think is comfy feet, which are particularly good. Hope you get sorted. Buen Camino!Not clear which country you are in. Here in the UK I usually buy gel insoles from Sports Direct to replace or supplement the standard insoles of my walking boots. Used to be "Dunlop" branded but the labelling seems to change from time to time while the actual product remains pretty constant.

One of my knees was hurting so I paid attention to my walk and I noticed that my arch was flattening and that was causing pronation which, in turn, was causing my knee to twist. I pulled out the insole, stuffed toilet paper where my arch would be and then replaced the insole. I would have to add paper now and then as the paper got compressed but it worked so well the paper is still there four years later.any tricks to be shared. come on team spill all.
In the last two walks I have used the same type/brand shoes With insoles that were recommended. Both sets worked very well. Going back 5th April and have yet my third pair of boots same as before. But using old insoles all has been well till today when I did a twenty two kilometer walk and the ball of right foot is quite sore after about fifteen k's. Any recommendations for new insoles or any tricks to be shared. come on team spill all.
I've never seen or even heard of a pair of shoes coming with extra insoles. Is that what you get when you buy your footwear or do you order the second pair from the maker?Since I never carry an extra pair of 'end of the day' footwear, I always take an extra pair of insoles, usually the ones which were included with the shoe.

Thanks Dave. So I take it that you insert the original insoles into the shoes when you get to the albergue and you will do just a bit of walking around town while the main set of insoles are airing out (because the not so good originals won't do much harm with such little use).I use third party insoles in my shoes, never the ones that came with the shoe. So the ones that come with the shoe becomes the 'extra' pair.

Funnily enough, that is what I didn't like about my podiatrist. He always gave me the standard orthodoxy and didn't want to discuss custom approaches.Go to a podiatrist and get custom orthodoxy s made.
Ha ha mistype. Obviously I was trying to type orthoticsFunnily enough, that is what I didn't like about my podiatrist. He always gave me the standard orthodoxy and didn't want to discuss custom approaches.
(For example, I had a stress fracture and he stuck by his recommendation to wear a rigid boot for 6 weeks. i decided I would more likely injure myself with the boot, so I just stayed off my foot for 6 weeks and it healed perfectly.)
I have EE wide feet and the Superfeet work excellently for me I have been using them in all of my shoes and boots for several years.I have extra wide feet (4E) and I find most insoles don’t work for me. I recently got Superfeet Green WIDE. My initial impressions are good although I haven’t done enough kilometres with them yet to be sure they are a good choice. It’s difficult finding footwear that works for extra wide feet. Choices are limited.
