High Heel Insoles


If you're like me you may have been wearing heels like forever! Getting older and gaining weight is not so comfortable for one's feet. Dr. Scholls for Her High Heel Insoles are, in a word, fabulous! Whether wearing them in sandals or closed high heels, they render every stiletto comfortable. They are definitely a 'FEET MUST HAVE' item. Luckily Amazon sells these delightful foot aids in a three pack at a phenomenal price point. Do your feet a favour: No matter your weight or age, if you are wearing heels 3 inches and beyond, buy this product! By the way, they work magnificently in heels 2 inches! Dr. Scholl's For Her Insoles, High Heel, Women's Sizes 6-10

I'm a person who doesn't wear heels often, but when I do, the ball of my foot really suffers, and I don't understand how others wear heels. I can't believe people wear them in pain all day. I've tried a lot of different insoles for high heels, and these are the best. I noticed an immediate relief. I highly recommend these, and make sure you buy several pair.

I have plantar fasciitis and wear custom orthotics regularly. Of course, they can't be worn with heels because they are too big and clunky. I don't wear heels often, but inevitably when I do my feet hurt. The balls of my feet and then my arch starts hurting. I bought these for some new heels and they were amazing! No part of my foot hurt. It provides a little bit of arch support which was fantastic for me. Of course, it's not meant to supply all the support I need, but for an evening out, these worked wonders. I will be buying these for each of my heels so I don't have to switch them from shoe to shoe.



One thing I did note when placing them in the shoe, it doesn't come shaped with enough of a curve to fit the way I thought it should in the shoe. I had to very slightly curve it in the arch area. The from of the insert did not reach the area of the ball of my foot that is under the big toe. I feel like that part should be wider.

Dr. Scholl's is amazing! I'm in heels all the time and was really starting to have some serious foot and back pain (I'm 23). I slipped these insoles into my shoes and I have never felt better. I don't even feel like like I'm wearing heels. I just wish more than one pair came in a package.

First of all, the other two reviewers are right. These are really good to have, a must-have!



i wear heels a lot, and it usually isn't a problem for me, but even so, these are simply a must-have. Even if you're like me and you don't have a problem wearing most heels, these just make things more comfy, sometimes MUCH more comfy!



The thing is, the higher the heels, the more of your body's weight is being supported by the ball of your foot. These gel inserts really cushion the ball of your foot against the sole of your shoes.



As we all know, some high heels have little, if any, padding on the sole at all, which i've always wondered about. Well, these make a very noticeable difference. i personally love wearing four and even five inch heels, i think they're very sexi and fabulous, and using these gel inserts always makes a big difference.

This may only apply to women with larger shoe sizes (I wear an 8 1/2 - 9) but I found that the arch support basically just created a lump in the middle of my foot. I tried to solve the problem by moving the insole a bit farther forward in the shoe. The instructions say to line up the back of the insole with the heel of the shoe, but I moved it forward about 1/2 an inch. The adjustment helped, but the arch support is still strange feeling to me. The part that is supposed to "massage" the ball of the foot also does very little, in my opinion. I've not given up hope and will keep working with them, but I can't say I would recommend them. I think next time I'll try the ones that are specifically for the ball of the foot and that say they work in any shoe. That's the part that really hurts when wearing heels anyway, right?

These are fabulous! I love how you can place them in different shoes if needed, and only replace every 6 months! I wear them with pumps, but they're clear and I would definitely place them in sandals as well. I don't know why I waited so long to buy this! ♥

I bought these (full price at CVS) to wear in my high heels for a stage show. After much deliberation on going cheaper, I decided to invest in my foot health. I would have been better off going with a less expensive brand, since I now have to throw these away and purchase another set.

After less than an hour of being on my feet, the ball of the foot area was as flat as a pancake...no...it was flatter. The arch cushion stayed full and comfy, but that didn't matter when the balls of my feet were screaming.



The adage 'you get what you pay for' did not apply here.

I received a free pair of these insoles as Bzz Agent. I tried them out in a pair of really high heels and while I did expect more comfort (which they delivered!) I did not expect a better fit. I guess it could be an issue if you have a tight fitting pair and wear a small size but for me them worked perfectly. Now, I always make sure my high heels are comfortable anyways because I refuse to torture my feet (even for fashion!!) but these insoles certainly made me even more comfortable. I love that they are clear so they don't take away from the shoe when you have to kick your heels off and the inside of the shoe looks almost as good as the outside. I'd certainly recommend them. Oh .. and being pregnant I don't wear heels on a daily basis at the moment but I will certainly stick these insoles in the pairs I do wear during the next coming months.

** I was given a pair of Dr. Scholl's high heal inserts as part of a Bzz Agent campaign. The complimentary product was provided to me in exchange for sharing my honest opinions about my experience using it. **





I wear high heel shoes 3 or 4 days a week, from 2" wedges to 5" stilettoes and everything in between. Depending on the particular shoe and my activity level that day, I may or may not have any foot pain at all. So, I took one pair of inserts and just started trying them in every heel I own to see what works and what doesn't.



What I found is that they didn't do much in the shoes that I don't already have major problems with. Say a 3" wedge sandal with wide straps - very little result and not worth the $8-10 MSRP. In fact, for some shoes it actually made them MORE uncomfortable because there is less room for your foot inside. Plus, for my size 8.5 feet they seem REALLY short. I match up the arch of the insole to the arch of my foot, but the heel of the insole comes nowhere near the heel of my foot, and the cushion part of the ball of the insole is only halfway under the ball of my foot.



I was actually about to give up on them, but as a last ditch effort I decided to try them in the least comfortable shoe I own - a 5" stiletto closed toe pump that's really about a quarter size too small for me. I wouldn't even own them except I got them at 95% off online and it wasn't even worth returning them for the price I paid. Now these shoes still hurt to wear, but the insole makes a noticeable difference. I didn't ask my husband to drop me at the front door of the restaurant, and managed to make the trek from the back of the parking lot to the dinner table and back with "tolerable discomfort". And, as a pleasant surprise, when I took them off at the end of the night, my feet felt fine rather than having any lingering aches.



In short, if you have a few trouble makers in your shoe closet, it's worth picking a pair of Dr. Scholl's high heel inserts and just testing them out to see if they can help in some cases. Just don't invest in a pair for every heel you own, and don't expect miracles. It's just silicone, after all. :)'
