Please ignore this post, this person has no idea what insoles are meant to do. Insoles do more than just address impact, depending on the player things such as heel pain, knee pain, back pain can be solved by a solid heel cup and arch support. The 2 I recommend is Currex and superfeet.



Thank you for the recommendations. Do these insoles go on top of the existing insoles or do you have to remove the existing insoles?


The inserts will generally move you up a 1/2 size and there really isn't any benefit with keeping the old ones, there also isn't really any issues to keep them in either if the shoe fits comparability. These inserts aren't cheap, but they could bring more benefits than the boot itself.

On Amazon's webpage for the Curex, the users questions/answers all suggested removing the manufacturer's insole and using this instead.


They sell and fit them really well at Shoe Train in Potomac. Highly recommend heading out there.

We use them and rip out the crappy insoles that come with the boot.

That's fine for the top, but not the bottom.

Mine uses sports insoles.

The insoles that come with the cleats are thin and DD starts getting pain from the knee down. Switched the insoles and boom, fixed.

What ages are your kids?

We use orthodics because my kids (9) feet are painful without them. But I could also see also getting a more cushioned insole as well. Cleats put a lot of pressure on a very few spots on the feet.

Unless your kid has a medical condition with his or her feet, you don't need to buy special insoles.


+1

My good friend who I've known since elementary school is a podiatrist and has a very talented daughter who plays U15 soccer at a high level told me the exact same thing. If there is no pain, leave it alone. No insoles needed.

Wouldn't it be better than what there is? My basic running shoes have so much more support than a pair of football shoes which are basically have the internals of a flip flop.

Great question. I am very interested to knowing this too.

Even the $60 Nike soccer cleats and turf shoes I got her, there doesn’t seem to have adequate insoles.
