I have had foot related issues for 7 years now, mainly plantar fascitis. I have been on and off crutches for small tears in my fascia and have had physical therapy. Besides treatments, insoles were required but only gave temporary relief. One thing I learned is that professional custom insoles were never soft enough. Forget all the store brands. I decided to try these New Balance 3020 Insoles and am truly amazed at the difference. I didn’t know what I was going to do anymore. I have wasted so much money on insoles I could open my own store. I even buy decent sneakers and they aren’t good enough alone. I only wish they could fit in a pair of sandals for the summer.
