Carbon Fiber Insole, 1 Pair Rigid Shoe Insert for Men & Women Recovery of Arthritis, Turf Toe, Morton's Extension, Hallux Rigidus Insole Support (11.22"-285mm-Men's 12-12.5/Women's 13-13.5)

These inserts are very strong yet flexible , which helps with my capsulitis.

I did not like how narrow these ran.

I've been using this pair of carbon fiber inserts for about a week and they are helping with my injury. I cannot say what exactly I did, but the "ball" of my left foot was swollen and it hurt to walk. Something similar had happened to my right foot for several years ago and the orthopedist had me use a rigid insert then. At the time, I was charged $50 for the one. But now that I needed a second, I wanted less expensive set and I wanted them to be the same thickness (matched set).Install:Installing these is quick and simple. Take out your insoles, and place the carbon fiber plates in the bottom. Then re-install the insoles.Size:I wear a size 9 US men's from New Balance. I ordered the carbon fiber inserts as a men's 9-9.5. They fit with easy (front to back). These appear to be designed for a M width shoe. As I were a slightly wider shoe, there is a bit of play side to side.Summary:These are helping me and I recommend these for any foot injury.

Easy to install and feet feel great after a long day.

The carbon fiber insoles are extremely rigid. I can not bend it, so I questioned how comfortable they might be. They actually provide excellent support when used in conjunction with a high arch support insole for those with flat feet. I place them between insoles and the mid soles of my sneakers and find that they are surprisingly comfortable and help alleviate any soreness through the arch of the foot and do not altar the stride of my gait. Excellent product.

The media could not be loaded. These are VERY thin and yet vert sturdy! They do not take up much room in the shoes and offers a steady base. Note: it is not flexible so you’ll need to use it with shoes that has enough opening space for it to go into.

If you need non-bending soles for orthopedic reasons, these are the insoles for you. I put them in my shoes that flex too much. I notice a huge improvement. The only thing I'd now the shoes are tighter across the top of my foot
