I thought they were too hard when compared to the ones I got from my physical therapist. By the end of the day my heels were sore. Like walking on a wedge of cement

I believe you would benefit from wearing these with your inserts, unless they won't fit in the shoe. I have terrible heel pain, and these DO help me.

You should ask your orthopedist about that. I ordered mine based on what my physical therapist recommended. It fits UNDER the lining in your shoe so I'm not sure how size effects the outcome as it's more based on your heel width than your shoe width. Hope that helps.

I don't wear high heels, so can't answer that. My normal shoe size is 7-1/2 narrow, but when plantar fasciitis struck four years ago I ended up purchasing the Lynco orthotics in a size 8 (because they are not available in half sizes) and buying shoes that would fit the orthotic. So now instead of a size 7-1/2 athletic shoe, I wear a size 8 Medium with a size 8 orthotic. I have a pair of flat dressy shoes (Munro American) in a 7-1/2 Medium instead of my normal 7-1/2 narrow which I wear with the size 8 orthotics. My recommendation is that you go to a really good shoe store and actually try the shoes on with the orthotics (you will probably need to remove the insert that comes with the better shoes; the cheap shoes will probably not have a removable insert). I have made it a practice to purchase two pairs of Lynco orthotics every year. I use the newest ones in my athletic shoes and change them every night, so that each pair of orthotics gets a rest on alternate days. My older orthotics I do NOT discard, but put them into shoes and boots that I wear less often so that I'm not constantly changing back and forth. And I did fully recover from the plantar fasciitis without custom orthotics or surgery--just the Lynco orthotics, plenty of the exercises recommended by a physical therapist, and a brace which I used at night for several months. Good luck! I hope that this is helpful. -- CJM

Hi. I'm not sure I bought this cause I stand up at work all day and my back started to hurt so I told my doctor and she recommended this.

"Lift" is just what people mean by how much your foot goes up after the heel insert is put in your shoe. You are putting something in your shoe that "lifts" your foot up. Does that make sense? Instead of your heel sitting flatly on the original insole, it now is up a bit because of the insert, which is what I do not like about the insert, as it puts my foot up higher than where shoes are slightly indented to "hug" your ankle. See how the back of your shoe rounds in above your heel/ankle? Putting in the heel insert made it so my head was up there a bit.

Yes, but I found this lift to be too hard on the heel. I prefer Warwick Enterprises Adjust a Lift. It is made of rubber, not a hard plastic.

Yes...I've ordered them for other shoes...their the same my podiatrist suggested I wear in my shoes...kj

I cannot answer that, as I am not familiar with weightlifting shoes. These are simply correcting heel lifts.

Don't worry about sizing... it's an expensive,useless product IMO.Try simple heel lifts first

The Evo Tour version (about $30 more) have the heel riser - many find it helpful if you are ascending steep slopes, but IMHO these are not the snowshoes for mountaineering.

The day I was diagnosed with a heel spur, I immediately got a pair of Dr. Scholl's arch supports. I work in a factory where I am on my feet, literally 8 hours a day. I felt relief within an hour of putting them on. I have since bought a pair for every pair of my shoes.

I used for metatarsalgia and they helped. I would "guess" they would help you as well.

I had them for plantar faciitis and they did not help at all. I don't know about heel spurs but I think it would be iffee if they would help your condition. I hope you get relief.

Works for me!! The heel is padded & I get immediate relief. Of course, I am not on my feet 8 hours a day but it's worth a try!

No- and I'm not really sold on the ankle support either. I had major heel surgery back in early Sep last year and still in rehab with more ankle and Achilles pain now than in my heel. I'm trying out the cheap products to avoid overspending on things that Tricare won't cover and I may not need down the road. I bought this product, hoping that some of the compression would help me out in the Achilles. It doesn't. The ankle gel foam would get 3 stars maybe 3.5 max. Also, I've noticed some pain in my plantar which I didn't have before. Of course, my situation is different than yours, but I hope this helps. No- and I'm not really sold on the ankle support either.
