two things - 1. Do i need to wear these on top of a sole insert or alone? and 2 - since these cover several sizes, do i have to trim them down to fit

I would wear alone, however they make my shoe so thick I cannot use them....I even have wide width shoes...might just be me

They don't recommend that you put these types of things on top over other inserts. I do put mine on top of just the normal insert that comes in my shoes. You will probably just have to see how your shoes fit---may need to take the insert that comes with the shoe out. No, you do not need to trim them. They are partial length so that trimming is not necessary. I mainly use these in my tennis shoes. I am not sure how they would work in other shoes.

I used them on top of the existing insoles. You could trim them to get the desired fit. Uncut makes for more of a cup.

You can put them on top of the existing insert or a replacement. You do need something beneath them since they don't go all the way to the toe so, no, you don't have to trim them.

Yes...it worked for me. The insert is wide enough so that it fits quite snugly into the heel of my shoe on top of the first insert. I make certain that the velcro fasteners of my shoe are pulled together tightly to keep the inserts in place.

You should be fine. I'm an alarm contractor and wear a size 10 men's shoe...they fit fine. My clients appreciate that I respect their property. My other option was to remove my shoes, but this way I feel is much safer. Hope that helps.

I wear a woman's size 10 and they fit but one shoe per hole. My sandals fit both. Your shoes may hang out a bit

Ok I read some of the other post an I must state I use mine on my Nike shoes if you plan on using boots it mite require one size larger tho from what I got is you should use a medium size for you an I would think you would still have some stretch room for a bigger boot sole

I would recommend up. The inserts are 3/4 length -- if your shoes are a half-size too small, then your toes are going to be pinched, but the half-size difference here really doesn't make a difference.

I doubt it. I took out the original foam insole- inserted these and the fit did not change. In other words after using 5 or more pairs of these the same way the insole has not changed the size of the shoe. Hope this makes sense. Most insoles seem thin and one of the really nice things about these is they are very effective in cushioning my old feet. I am packing too much weight and these really help even tho they are not real thick. Most of the thin ones are worthless after a few days. You might try stacking a couple of cheap foam ones under a good pair of liners like these?? Good luck. Trapper I doubt it.

Take out another insole from a shoe that you like. You can cut just the toe part where they meet or if the rest of the new insole is hangs out cut that too. Usually the top works for me and maybe a little around the edges. Hope that helps.

These are made to be on top of the shoe inserts, they will not fit properly underneath because of the way they are molded. They have helped me very much and are approved by my podiatrist.

I would get the larger and then cut it down to fit. A too small insole could put the padding in the wrong places for your foots comfort.

Hello, I wear size 7 1/2 shoe. The arch in the ProFoot hits exactly where I need it to hit. However, I have a friend who wears a 6/12 shoe with the ProFoot and she says it's exactly what she needs. Apparently, these are related to the Magic Beans. It's cost is nominal so worth a try. I have velcro strips to more them from shoe to shoe. Hope this helps.

I would read their suggestions, maybe call and inquire.. Man sizes may need to be trimmed, or edges trim to fit a woman's shoe. I have 2 pr of shoes, size 9 wide..one lift needed trimming to fit, lift for other pair did not...

The inserts aren't long...they actually fit just under the balls of your feet. I found they work quite well especially since I'm ony feet all day.

No, these inserts are not intended for that so I would use heel pads to make the fit more snug.

PJ and M Search answered this the same as I would. If they go on like a pair of sock, probably too big. They are very comfortable, so you aren't going to feel pinched or restricted. They are inexpensive, so I would try the next size down.

The size of the insole is 8,9,10US, you need to trim it down to fit your size. And they come in pair in the pack.

I don't know, I certainly am not using them. When I got them and found out you have to trim them to size, then put them in for 20 minutes the first day, 30 minutes the next, and so on, I decided to return them. I don't have time for such nonsense, I need an insole I can just throw into my shoes and go. These are a project. I have work to do at the office, can't be playing with my shoes. Sorry.
