I'm an ICU nurse, and I developed a plantar fasciitis. I had the choice between paying $200 to a podiatrist for customized inserts, or trying something off the shelf. I researched it online, found good reviews for the Pinnacles and tried them spectacular! Took a couple days for my feet to get used to them, after that walking was so much better, the pain went away when I was wearing the insoles. Then, after 2-3 months, the plantar fasciitis resolved and hasn't returned. I love these!

These insoles took the pain away from my feet due to Plantar Fascitis. They fit my shoes without having to modify them. Once these wear out I will definitely purchase them again.
Best Deals on Powerstep Pinnacle Adult's Insole
I got these and a pair of Superfeet Black about a month ago for my SO after reading through hundreds of reviews here at amazon and also at zappos. He is 55, has very flat feet and suffers from what he calls "hot heels." In his work he attends numerous trade shows and after a day on concrete flooring he is in intense pain.
He was immediately attracted to the heel cushioning aspect of the Powerstep Pinnacles and went on to wear them for a couple of hours a day for several days. He said that they began alleviating his pain almost immediately. He felt the insoles repositioning his feet during the break in period and used that to guide him as to how long to wear them before taking a break. In any case, they've been show-tested and although he is not pain free he finds them very helpful and I am going to get him several more pairs here at amazon for distribution throughout his flock of footwear. If I were going to buy one pair only I probably would get them on ebay where several vendors offer them for about the same money with free shipping.
He typically wears Merrells, boots and outdoor sport type shoes, in a 10-10.5-11 size range. Swapping out the Merrell insoles with a pair of 10-10.5 size G Powerstep Pinnacles was simple and easy and did not require altering the insoles in any way.
Regarding the Superfeet Black, he did try them out. They are currently installed in a pair of his Merrell Chameleon mid height boots, which I notice he's not been wearing. When I asked him about the Superfeet he told me that because the Superfeet do not have the immediate cushioned feel of the Powersteps he doesn't feel inclined to persist with them. Now I just spent several minutes examining the two pairs of boots housing the new insoles and, to me, although the Superfeet are overtly sans cushion there really isn't a whole lot of what I would call cushioning in the Powersteps either. But apparently it makes all the difference for him.
I wanna say that I am profoundly grateful for all of the information freely available from the amazon community in these reviews. You folks surely are a generous bunch and I continue to be amazed by and very thankful for you.
Honest reviews on Powerstep Pinnacle Adult's Insole
I used these for 1.5 months before the top fabric liner began to fall off. I contacted the manufacture of the product and they replaced them for free (I paid to ship the defective ones back). The manufacture said they have been getting complaints of the liner failing recently. My second pair is also already beginning to fail after only a few weeks. They are very comfortable but just unusable when the top liner falls off and balls up under your heels. I will attempt to repair my second pair with glue, but i would certainly not buy these again.

I purchased two pairs of these orthotics for my husband and adult son who are both flat footed. My husband's podiatrist actually recommended these inserts to improve an issue he was having with his ankle joints sagging due to his overpronation. These immediately reduced his ankle pain and swelling and with regular use have corrected it. My son had a similar problem with his knee due to his flat feet and these completely cured the problem. Amazon offered these orthotics for more than $10 less than offered at our local store. I always check out Amazon first whenever I need ANYTHING and I am never disappointed!
