I have Superfeet Green and Blue, Cadence (bulky and too much padding for me) Spenco Total Support (they break down after about 18 months) and Spenco Max (bulkier than their sibling). Wish I had found Sole before Superfeet. I've used Superfeet Blue in work shoes for years and tried Superfeet Green on tennis courts, but much prefer Sole Active Medium inserts on a tennis court. They last for years just like Superfeet. EVA, Met Pad, and Zero Drop.
Our best-selling, most recommended footbed featuring an ultra-durable EVA base with medium Softec cushioning. Great for everyday foot care, comfort and protecting feet during strenuous activity. Fans of the Softec Response, this is the footbed for you! It's the same footbed, with updated...

I’ve learned to listen to the pilot advice … oven baked Sole Active Medium Wide on as I type. I wanted something lighter than the heavy Sof Sole Airr Orthodics
@Ronaldo mentioned above (
https://tt.tennis-warehouse.com/ind...-insoles-worth-the-price.701105/post-15822420 ). I played in the Sof Soles for over twenty years and completely eliminated some achilles soreness that showed up in my 30s.
I haven’t tested them on the court ... but after the oven heated molding they feel about perfect. I have a fairly high arch … probably more neutral now … and Sole arch was putting too much pressure on arch initially. But simply standing in shoes after heating this morning does in fact feel like a custom fit. Thanks for recommendation … I was down to trying Sole or Pinnacle Power Steps.
I watched the video below … and my bigger concern would be any arch/plantar fasciitis… was starting to feel some arch soreness with light thin insole I was trying. Also the wide offered by Sole turned out to be perfect for my 4E.
Just an fyi for others on how much insoles can add to tennis shoe weight:
my shoe:
346 g / 12.2 oz no insole
367 g / 12.9 oz paper thin foam insole
406 g / 14.3 oz new Sole insole
446 g / 15.7 oz Sof Sole Airr orthodics
One other comment … obviously insoles are built differently. The Sol Sole orthodics have a rigid arch support plate on bottom of insole under the arch, but lots of cushion at arch on top. Sole less cushion on top … will be curious if I notice any difference on the court.
fyi … if you but Sole on Amazon … not returnable
