SlimflexSlimflex Simple 3/4 Length Insoles - High Density ( Hard )

Great for my flat feet

This product is exactly what I have been looking for. I had the exact same ones provided by the NHS, got them in about 2012. I decided to replace them due to them losing a bit of shape. These are exactly the right size, shape, and firmness. Perfect!

I bought these as I get through many pairs of x-line insoles and while they are excellent they are more expensive then these. I was hoping that these might be a good substitute however they do not work for me.I have hypermobile flat feet and very unstable hypermobile ankles. These provide a firm surface which I need, however the bulkiness of the insoles left my feet more unstable in the ankle than with the x-line and I almost injured myself a couple of times when wearing these out for the first time when my ankles "gave way".Also the fact that they are 3/4 length means that the height difference between the raised arch support section and the front foot is intensified, which I find creates a slightly forward tilt that exaserbates my ankle instability.I will try these in wellies but would not recommend them for people with hypermobile ankles in any activite footwear or sporting activities due to the risk of injury. They may be fine for people whose feet and joints are more stable.

The product did the job of supporting an arch in an otherwise flat foot. Trouble is this just moved the problem to a different part of my leg. I went from having intermittent Achilles pain to constant knee pain.I've since transitioned to a shoe with no support, padding, stiffness, and plenty of toe room. I also started walking barefoot as much as is practical. Already my foot is getting stronger and I can see the arch returning.This insole was recommended by my GP, I'm disappointed they didn't also tell me I could try and strengthen my feet. Give it a go before spending your money

I've been suffering with Plantar Fasciitis and Plantar Fibromatosis (lumps in the ligament instead of thickening) for the last year. Before getting it, I didn't really understand what could be so bad about it - I now know and sympathise with anyone else who has it.For the first six months I always thought that it was gel or cushioning insoles that I needed. That was until I had an appointment with a chiropodist who told me that it was actually hard insoles that I needed. He then sold me these insoles for £20 telling me that they weren't in the shops. Imagine my shock when I looked on Amazon and found them £12.95! Needless to say I did not return for any other appointments with him.As for the insoles, they are great. There is no give at all in the insole which means that it gives very good support for your foot. It takes a bit of time to get used to having the insoles in your shoes or trainers, but it soon becomes natural. If I don't wear them in my footwear, I soon start regretting it. I've now bought a few pairs so that I don't have swap them every time I wear a different pair. I've now had them since the middle of September 2017 and one pair especially has daily use and is still going strong showing no signs of wear.When I've done my research, the 3/4 length insoles are better for when you can't remove the original insole from your shoes. Don't get cheated by chiropodists like I did when they want you to pay over the odds for these insoles!If you found this review helpful, can you please help me by clicking on the helpful button.

Quality not as expected. I had a pair from the NHS (same brand) and they’ve lasted 12 months and no damage. This pair I’ve had since end of August and they have started to break at the back.

Perfect - having tendons that unravelled and finally snapped in both feet I can only say these have been life changing and better quality than than those supplied by the hospital. Whilst they do feel a bit hard to start with each time I wear them, after a short while it is less noticeable and they provide excellent support. For me this is the difference between hardly being able to walk at all and being able to walk for an hour and this is why I say they are life changing. They are much better than others I have tried and the 3/4 size means I can use them in trainers, boots and flats without any adjustment. Have ordered more

I got these to help reduce leg and foot pain. I have only used them a few times, by almost straight away I found a huge reduction in my lower leg pain and sore feet. However as I stand at a really strange angle I have noticed that I am getting some pain in my hips, but I am sure over time that will eases my body adjusts. The only thing is that they are quite thick and not flexible in any way which I can see might be a problem for some people.
