GREAT! - for the whole 2 weeks they last... Sep 07, 2006
By Thomas Ruschke I work in the Retail Sales industry, hence I'm on my feet all day long. I mean all day - like 12 hour shifts. I figured the Dr. Scholl's massaging gel inserts would handle my ravaged feet exquisitely, and soon I too would be gellin'. I bought my first set, cut them to size, threw them in my shoes, and off to work I went. AWESOME! The first few days were absolutely phenomenal. Excellent feel, perfect shock absorption, and a nice massaging-type feeling. Not too shabby. A week or so down the road, after many - a long shift, the insoles started to shrivel up into themselves, thereby not fitting my shoe quite as well as they should have. Low and behold, the shrinking got worse, and worse, until I had about a half inch of un-gelled shoesole underneath my tired feet. Standing on this kind of a clusterpluck wasn't pleasant at all, in fact my feet felt WORSE than without the gel insets. Okay, so I figured it might be because I didn't cut the soles to the EXACT shape of my shoe's insoles. So I bought pair #2 and tried again. Low and behold, 2 weeks later, the same result. A shriveled and disformed mass of gel in my shoe at the end of the day. I figured, what the heck, give it one more shot. Three strikes, your out, right? #3 was exactly the same. I went and bought some Dr. Scholl's all day heavy duty work insoles, and those have yet to fail me (4 weeks later they still feel great). I guess these could be beneficial to someone who doesn't stand all day, but god forbid you plan to actually use the gel insoles for any extended periods of time - don't rely on them to hold up, because they won't. Good luck!

they suck. Mar 09, 2007
By Radio These are about on par with the regular insoles that came in my airmax(nike). They feel a "little" different at first(less then a week for me), but the softer feeling goes away fast. I wear a mens size 15, and these fit inside the show perfectly, without having to trim anything(I should have taken pics of them under the normal insoles, theyre the exact same size, except the nike insoles are a tad thicker in areas). Frankly, I'd suggest something thicker(my wigwam socks I use with them also have extra cushioning on the bottom), these wear out faster then carpet without padding.

They won't stay put! Aug 03, 2008
By 1Steve

I followed the directions and I did remove my old insoles first. I cut them to fit, and they fit exactly to the form of the shoe until I stick my foot in! There is no glue to hold these things in place! As soon as I put my foot in they try to curl under the ball of my foot, like you would do if you folded your bed pillow under to make it higher. I tried holding it in place with my finger while slipping my foot in with so so results. In any case even if I got them to stay in place for a little while the came out along with my foot every time I took the shoes off! They should come with some sort of peel off backing with glue underneath like pre-glued floor tiles or something to hold them in place. as is they are useless for me!

It's a Felon' to call this Gellin'. Nov 02, 2007
By Angultra I work in the retail sales industry so am standing pretty much 8 hours a day. My feet started to get sore, so I figured I'd try some new insoles to help out. The first ones I tried were some $10 "Sof" Propel Gel insoles from my local shoe store. These were alright, but I didn't notice much difference from the regular insoles. So I doled out $17 for a pair of Dr. Scholls, and hoped that I would be gellin' like in the commercials. However, after a full day of use I have to say I was not gellin' much at all. They definitely add cushion, but have problems as well.
Pros:
-soft feeling, with chambered gel design
-relatively thin
-guides to cut the right size
Cons:
-More chafing rather than massaging, could get blisters if not fitted exactly
-feet got quite hot by the end of the day (the gel holds in heat a lot)
-they recommend changing every 6 months, so could be costly in the long run
After a little research, I found that rolling a golf ball under the foot is a great thing for aching feet. I've been doing it recently and it definitely gives a good massage to the trouble spots. If you're also not gellin', you may want to give it a try.
Overall if you can get a perfect fit and don't mind the extra heat, it may work for you. However I haven't given up on them yet, and will probably try either their "work" insoles or "memory foam" insoles, which my local Wal-mart also sells. Hopefully they will be better.

Anything is better than a plain steel toe boot! Dec 22, 2006
By B. McCarthy

The instructions, which I didn't read, tell you to throw out the existing insoles in your shoes. I didn't do that and these sucked for about a week as they slid around and were uncomfortable. Then I read the instructions and rectified this mistake. I guess RTFM applies to gel inserts too...
Now they are very comfortable. They could be better, but I am happy with them. I gave the other pair to my father-in-law and he loves them too.
