What issues are you looking to address? 

The types of insoles you'll find at REI are sometimes called "support" or "sport" insoles. They feature a harder material for structural support and stability, best for conditions like plantar fasciitis, structural misalignment, supination or overpronation. 

Common footwear fit issues that insoles may help: 

• Heel slippage: If your shoe fits well in the mid- and forefoot but allows heel slippage or lift, try a supportive, mid- to high-volume insole.  
• Foot elongation: A supportive insole can improve fit for those with significant foot elongation when measured standing as compared to sitting. 
• Low or collapsed arches: Direct arch support may feel uncomfortable. A supportive insole stabilizes the heel and spreads pressure across the foot, instead of concentrating pressure into the arch area.  

Finding the right insole volume 

Different insoles suit different arch shapes better than others. 

• High-volume insoles are best for high-volume shoes such as hiking boots, ski boots or running shoes and high arches. 
• Medium-volume insoles work in average-volume shoes, like casual shoes and some athletic footwear, and a variety of arch profiles. 
• Low-volume insoles fit low-volume shoes such as cycling shoes, in-line skate boots or ski skate boots, and very low arches.
