Yes, I am removing themAre you removing the inner soles that came with the shoes?
I've seen a podiatrist and was told I overpronate and have a collapsed arch in my left foot. Custom orthotics are delayed and won't get here in time so he gave me recs on off-the-shelf insoles that cover both the overpronation and the arch support. Now I just need shoes that fit themSounds like you want the arch support and not heel support. I can manage with super feet green in close fitting footwear; but otherwise use custom orthotics - I’d second the suggestion to consult a podiatrist.
How much time do you have before you start?Hey all! I'm about to start on my second camino
I use Superfeet “run,” formerly known as “carbon.” There is zero padding, but great heal and arch support. It’s almost like walking barefoot. They are good for 5, 600 miles a pair. I’ve probably walked 10,000 miles using these insoles and have never had foot problems. Maybe I’m just lucky, or maybe they are really good.Hey all! I'm about to start on my second camino and having some shoe trouble. Last camino I work Merrill Moabs right with no insoles and ended up getting plantar fasciitis about 3 weeks in. This time I am trying to prepare more and found some good insoles that protect against pronation and have extra arch support. The only problem is that they are THICK, which is causing all shoes that normally feel fantastic without the insoles to have major heel slippage after inserting them.
How do you all deal with the extra space taken up by insoles? Have you found certain shoes that work better with them? I tried sizing up (didn't work), looking for shoes that have an extra deep heel pocket (kinda helped but not completely), and tried the "runners knot" that someone at REI showed me (also kind of helped but not completely). I really don't want to go up to boots or anything if I can avoid it, I really like flexibility and weight of trail runners
I also use Moabs, and use an insole. Your Moabs have 2 lace holes where the end of the shoe lace threads through. Take a look :Also, the insoles should NOT be slippery at all and there should NOT be any "extra space". Did you cut the new insoles to match the OEM insoles? Lay the OEM insoles over the new insoles and square up the end of the heel. Trace the old insole onto the new insole and then cut the new insoles to fit. You mentioned "space"...
Also, be carefull with insoles that have high control built in...such as high arch support. The contour of your instep should match the contour of the insole. Otherwise, you will destroy your feet.
The insoles should fit the shoes / boots - NOT the other way around.I've seen a podiatrist and was told I overpronate and have a collapsed arch in my left foot.

This cannot be overstated - EVERYONE's feet are different. I even have a congenitally mismatched pair of feet. What works for ME, likely will not work for you.Over 2CF & JMT I have had absolutely no issues with heel support using Superfeet Trailblazer in Meindl Radide GTX trekking shoe.
