I'm thinking one key to keeping my knees functional is some insoles for my shoes. I notice a difference one the original insole has a few hundred miles on it (especially with light hikers and trail runners).

Any thoughts on insoles - which brands. Superfeet (I've used some fairly bulky ones with winter boots and they helped), Spenco, Dr. Scholls? I saw something on RxSorbo also...

I have Superfeet in my boots and Spenco in my trail runners. No problems with either one

Superfeet have been great for me but I would advise against using them in any shoe with a waterproof liner like gore-tex. I think they offer the same caution in the fine print somewhere.. they can tear the liner.

Insoles
I have tried them all and found Cadence insoles to be the best for me. They have a great combination of both support and cushion. Very durable and really improved the fit of my boots. I used CADENCE10 code on their website for a 10% discount, I think it's good until the end of the month.

Thanks for the replies.

It's good to know on Superfeet - I seldom have patience for the fine print.

I'll take a look at Cadence. Mostly I am thinking spenco for my light hikers or trail runners - partly because they have a wide version for at least one of their inserts.
