Not great

Firstly, the process of getting these is very good, customer team are good at communication also.

However, the main concern for me is the quality of the product. I have had Footbalance before (via Shuropody stores) these lasted me over 2/3 years with the excessive sport and walking I do, which I think is incredible.

These custom insole ones though from custominsoles.co.uk are not great at all as an overall product. Firstly, the actual mould is very good, they did a great job, but the glue/foam/softer part that makes the rest of your foot towards your toes is not very good. already after two weeks (and I have not even done any sport, only gentle walking and wearing them in) I have seen degrading of where the soft part is attached to the solid part, as in if I probably continue to wear them it will be down to the bearness within a couple more weeks and then just snap/fall apart.

Footbalance I paid £70, for these ones I paid £120+, I expected better quality control and testing, considering these are patented tech products as well. Not sure who signed off the QA documentation!!

Seeking advice currently on these in regards to replacement or refund. Otherwise I will revert back to longer processes and better quality like Footbalance or other brands. I would upload photos but this does not let me.

I love my insoles

I love my insoles, it took me a while to get used to them, but now I don't think I can survive without wearing them, cause I have a bunion. Good quality and comfy product. Thank you so much. Respect!

Fast service and great, well-made insoles!

Fast and efficient service and great orthotic insoles for foot pain! The foot impression kit arrived quickly with detailed instructions on how to get a deep enough impression. Following the return of the kit, the insoles arrived within just a few days! They are very well made, just like those insoles that orthopaedic doctors provide in Europe for a variety of foot and knee problems. My foot and ankle pain has already started to improve, now that my feet and fallen arches are properly supported again. I will order a second pair. Thank you for offering this service!

*** WE CONSIDER THIS A SABOTAGE REVIEW WHICH TRUSTPILOT SHOULD REMOVE***
WE HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT YOU BY PHONE AND EMAIL BUT YOU HAVE LEFT AN INVALID NUMBER AND WILL NOT REPLY TO EMAIL?????
This reviewer had only had the insoles for a couple of days, has not gone through the break in process, therefore the review should be ignored.
Our website does clearly explain the construction and materials we use for manufacture. They are designed to be hard to provide the correct level of support otherwise they would just collapse and do nothing.
We always encourage our customers to contact us directly with any issues they may have, what’s the point in posting reviews like this when we care deeply about all our customers and will gladly try to rectify any problems.

These insoles are more expensive than…

These insoles are more expensive than other suppliers. I ordered 2 pairs of insoles at a cost of over £200. However the insoles arrived packaged in what I can describe as a bin liner - not deserving the cost of the products. The insoles are excellent but could be better packaged and priced.

Thank you so much for your review,
We are working hard to improve the packaging, but we like to keep it to a minimum as ultimately, it's binned anyway.

Excellent value

The soles were delivered within seven days . I am a keen hiker and have worn adapted insoles for 5 years. I couldn’t afford new insoles from my current supplier , so opted for custom insoles . Delighted with the quality and will order some more .

Excellent product …

I used this company for my own running insoles a couple of months ago and they were brilliant so I ordered some of the everyday insoles for my teenage son who has found them to be really supportive and comfortable as he has low arches. He has commented on how much they make a difference and will be putting them in his walking shoes for his upcoming d of e hike.

Excellent product and excellent experience. Very easy process. Makes standing all day so much easier, though new users might need to spend the time getting used to them. Well worth it and well worth the money.

Still very uncomfortable

Still very uncomfortable. And I'm not convinced they do much to correct over-pronation (which was the reason for getting them).

Listening to my problems

Listening to my problems. And helping me to understand how the customization of the insole supports the whole foot and increase the weight bearing area. Something I felt after I started using it

Value for money

I wanted to get a new set of orthotics after many years in the same set. Given my feet have probably changed it was long over due. My local podiatrist tried to charge me over £300 plus the £60 appointment I had with him. I used Custom insoles and paid £129. They sent the mould which was easy to use, I sent them back and within 2 weeks I had my new custom insoles. I've been running in them for a week now and they seem perfect and a great upgrade.

5 Star, super speedy turnaround

got sent foam boxes, returned them to the team and 4 day turnaround from boxes arrive with them, to insoles with me, is very impressive service turnaround, I have o say.

footbeds are well made, and we're in early adaption stages, but pleased with progress and speed of service.

thanks very much really appreciate the service

Custom In- soles

The whole process from foot impressions to receiving in-soles was very quick and efficient.
But unfortunately my in-soles are not suitable for my feet. I think this is due to the complexity of my feet. It was worth a try.

Affordable Foot Comfort with Limitations

The product offers a satisfactory experience, albeit with room for improvement. One notable limitation is the depth of the impression kit, which may not accommodate all foot sizes and arch types comprehensively. This oversight could affect the fit and comfort for users with unique foot shapes. Additionally, the insoles lack a supportive bed or sole, a feature typically found in higher-quality orthotic insoles, which could compromise their effectiveness in providing the necessary support.

The material and construction of the insoles give off a somewhat inexpensive appearance, which, while not impacting their basic functionality, might raise concerns about durability and long-term value. However, it's important to consider the price point, which is relatively affordable compared to premium alternatives. While they do not match the quality of more expensive options, these insoles represent a cost-effective solution for those seeking basic foot support without a significant financial investment.

In conclusion, while these insoles may not meet the standards of more discerning consumers seeking advanced support and durability, they offer a viable option for individuals looking for an affordable, albeit basic, solution to improve foot comfort.

Thank you for your detailed review, we have 20 years’ experience in design and manufacturing insoles, and everything is carried out in house in the UK, in all this time we have yet to beaten by the depth of the foam impression kit.
We use the best quality medical standard materials to manufacture our insoles and they are the same if not better than insoles from more expensive outlets.

The customer service is very good

The customer service is very good. First time I found my insols too flat. They offered me to make me another insoles according to my old one and it's much better than the first one. The satisfied customer is very important for them.

The insoles are ok but I’m struggling to see the value in them. I paid £129.00 and the quality isn’t the best. Fine if you’re looking for something basic.

thank you for your review, the insoles may appear basic to the naked eye but there is a lot of knowledge and experience that goes into the design to provide you with optimum support.
Our insoles are very competitively priced compared to foot orthotics provided by private practitioners, which are typically £400-£800 per pair.
