    These SOLE Ed Viesturs Signature Series custom footbeds can help relieve foot pain, soreness and excess motion in your larger-volume outdoor and athletic footwear.

    • Tested in some of the most demanding conditions in the world by mountaineer Ed Viesturs, these footbeds work well in hiking, mountaineering and steel-toe boots
    • They also work great in high-volume (more room) running shoes
    • Heat-moldable three-layer design ensures a personalized fit and ample support to help control motion and absorb shock
    • Can be worn with or without heat-molding to achieve proper amount of support and custom shape
    • Wicking, perforated polyester top helps manage moisture and balance friction control with comfort
    • 3.2mm of SOFTEC open-cell urethane in middle layer delivers superior shock absorption and durability for long-term cushioning comfort
    • EVA heat-moldable foam base supplies lightweight cushioning and a custom shape
    • Easy molding: warm footbeds in 200°F oven for about two minutes, then remove and place inside footwear
    • Opti-Therm Molding indicator makes custom fitting a snap--indicator turns black when insoles are ready to be removed from oven
    • Finally, step into the footwear and stand straight with feet shoulder width apart for two minutes
    • Aggressive arch and deep heel cups offer support and pronation control for a plush yet static fit; hand-wash to clean
    • Please note: sizing of the SOLE Ed Viesturs Signature Series custom footbeds is based on US Men's sizes

    Ed Viesturs and SOLE have joined forces to encourage under-privileged youth to be active and get into the outdoors. $2.00 from the sale of each pair of Ed Viesturs Signature Edition footbeds is donated directly to Big City Mountaineers.

        Comments about SOLE Ed Viesturs Signature Series Custom Footbeds - High Volume:

        I am a runner that has struggled with plantar fasciitis. The hard custom inserts were too hard for me but the Sole inserts are perfect! I keep them in my running shoes, my fun shoes and I use the winter ones for my workboots (EMS). The inserts last a long time and hold up to my constant activity.

          I'm on my feet most of my work day. I run for cardio and do pretty intense leg workouts a couple times a week in hiking boots for stability and support.
          I've got a pair of these insoles in all of my shoes. They're what I buy whenever REI offers a discount coupon.
          I prefer these to Superfeet Green.

              Comments about SOLE Ed Viesturs Signature Series Custom Footbeds - High Volume:

              During a recent trip to a thrift store, I stumbled across an almost brand new pair of Merrell Low top light hikers. They were only $8.00 but the insole was missing from one of the shoes. We immediately went to REI in Conshohocken and bought a set of these insoles and I havent taken the shoes off since!

              The fitting/molding process took only a few minutes in the oven. The directions were spot on.

              I really like the fact that I can take them out and put them into any other pair of shoes that I own.

              Great product for a great price!!

              • With Lots Of Weight

              Comments about SOLE Ed Viesturs Signature Series Custom Footbeds - High Volume:

              These had the highest arch of anything I could find in REI, and they made the difference between a super sore morton's toe and a great, enjoyable hike through the Santa Lucia's.

              These kept up there support through moderate, 10 mile, 2600 v. ft days, even under 300 lbs of weight (me and pack).

              The downside is, as with many high arched insoles, these took up a lot of space in my hiking shoes (Teva 4103), so it didn't cup my heal as well as it did with the previous insoles.

              If you, as I do, already have high volume feet, you may struggle to find a shoe or boot with enough volume for these and your feet. If you can though, they're great for the arch, and shaped my foot well enough to relieve most, if not all, of the pressure from morton's toe.

                It took a while to find these great food beds on the REI site, but I was glad when I did. This is my third pair, they work well for me, and I have really weird feet and neuropathy.

                arch too aggressive

                After wearing these for several months and hoping I'd get used to them, I finally had to give up. I found that the arch support was just "too aggressive." It's too high and hurts my feet. If you need a lot of arch support these may be for you, but if you have a neutral foot these may be a little too much for you.

                  My doctor had recommended Superfeet inserts, however they did not have a high enough arch to support my foot. While these are not perfect, the Signature Series Custom Footbeds have a higher arch, have been durable, and far cheaper than custom orthotics.

                    i am 52yr old flight attendant. i used to ski rock climb hike and participate in many sports living in colorado. now im post 8 surgeries including total hip replacement. i have leg descrepency and am post acl reconstruction. i have arthritis in spine/other original hip. ive tried: mega comfort insoles, aetrex (the walking company) insoles and now sole insoles. aetrex expensive and only last 6 months. both aetrex and mega comfort dont last cuz memory foam doesnt remember...(thats a joke ...but true statement)....sole insole offers more/better support while still comfy...and costs less and lasts longer. i have so many osteo problems but thanx to these insoles...i can walk all day as flight attendant and work out without limping like i was pre-sole brand insoles. i would recommend these insoles to anyone. they are life savers. heres to happy feet :)

                      I like that it's easy to use but for some reason it hurts in the beginning and it takes time to get use to it. My arch is pretty bad, I guess. I keep wearing them, hoping for the best. My sister swears on them. I think maybe it's a wrong fit. I have little hobbit feet and it may be too narrow. I have to wear longer shoes to fit my wide foot. Oh well.
