I bought my orange Superfeet for hiking and they make a huge difference, making my feet feel less tired after a long day's walk and offering good arch support that helps my posture. Before using these, I had never used orthotic insoles, but now I wouldn't hike without them. The orange Superfeet are, in my experience, much the same as the green except with thicker padding for the forefoot. Orange Superfeet have a high arch. Do not buy these if you have flat feet or the arches will dig into your feet, and these are made with very hard plastic. Superfeet have a whole range of options to match the style of your foot, and each different colour is a different shape.
You have to be very careful to get just the right fit with Superfeet. If at all possible I recommend going to a store and testing out the different sizes. The key is to buy Superfeet to fit your arch length, *not* your shoe size. I am a shoe size 9, so if I went by Superfeet sizing then I would need the "D" (7.5-9). Yet I have long arches so I actually use the "F" (11.5-13). I went to an outdoor store, tried all the different sizes and the salesperson helped me figure out that the larger Superfeet fit perfectly to my arch with no space between the sole and my foot. The smaller insoles left a small gap in my arch and would, over time, become quite uncomfortable. Superfeet are easy to trim with scissors (you simply cut them to match the regular insole of your shoes) so don't be afraid to buy a much larger size if that's what fits your arch.
It's also important to make sure your heels fit well if the heel cup is too small for your heel, the hard plastic will dig into your feet and you won't be wearing them for long! Conversely if the heel is too big, there won't be the support you're looking for. When you stand on the Superfeet, your heel should fit snugly in the cup and you'll know when it looks and feels right.
Superfeet can be hugely beneficial but only if you take the time to research and get the right fit. Ordering these purely based on your shoe size may prove to be a painful mistake. I wouldn't order these online unless you are able to either try them in a store first, or you are able to order several sizes and then return the ones that don't work for you.

I switched from the green insoles to the orange about two years ago and have liked the orange ever since. They seem to give much more arch support and my feet feel better after a full day of walking than they would without them or with the greens. I tried the greens again a few months ago, but then went right back to purchase the orange after recieving the greens.

By the time I purchased this pair of Superfeet insoles, I had been all too familiar with the pains and swelling of plantar fasciitis on my right foot for a little over a year. There were simply way too many times I had to cut my runs short because of the painful inflammation that would develop after about 2 miles into my runs. Because of this I never really went over 12 mile runs a week. I have somewhat higher than average arches and therefore needed adequate support for them. After having tried other insoles and heel cups from other brands, I was recommended I try a pair of orange Superfeet insoles by an employee at a shoe store I regularly visit. I bought a pair to put in my everyday Vans and a pair for my Brooks Beasts to make sure my arches were supported whether I walked in casual shoes or went for a run. I refrained from running for about two weeks and finally went for a run and noticed no sense of swelling on my right foot. Sadly, that was only for about the first 2-3 weeks and the inflammation returned although not as severe. Stil, my right foot's condition was still prominent enough for me to look for arch support elsewhere. The problem that I seemed to have was that these Superfeet insoles only provided enough support for about half of my foot's arch, the half closes to the heel of my foot. That gap in support started to give me pain in the upper half of my arch. While they proved to be somewhat supportive, they didn't really deliver for me.
Honest reviews on Superfeet Men's Orange Premium Insole
I teach elem. school PE and coach at a high school after school, so I am on my feet 12 hours a day and these insoles have been a god-send. They provide excellent support and padding. The heel cup is great as well as the extra padding near the front end of my foot where I normally wear insoles out very quickly. I've been using them for about a month now and they are still going strong!

This insole is an insole that works for both underpronated and overpronated feet. It is really soft and comfortable to run with. I have been running with them for almost a month now and I am satisfied with them.
