Superfeet Guide Insoles??

[jayjay24]

I’ve been running the Superfeet Guide Insoles in my Crispi Guide GTX boots and love em, but I went to purchase another pair and found out that they’ve been discontinued with no one really having any stock left out there. Did Superfeet replace this model with another? If so, which model is most like the Guides? Thx

Same here. Maybe one of the hiker models? i cant remember the specs(thickness, cushion, etc) on the Guides.

I’m not familiar with the guides but I like the trailblazers. I think they are more compatible with gortex, etc. membrane since the design isn’t supposed to be as rigid at the edges which can rub on the inside of the boot.

Looks like the Trailblazer is now called the Hike Support. I ttypically need a lower volume insole for my Crispis. Never thought about the insole rubbing on the goretex causing issues! I could see how it could though with the hard plastic edges on some of the insoles.

Take a look at tread labs. I have some in my dress shoes. Sole has thinner insoles also.

These were the Superfeet Guides. I do believe they were changed at some point to the Hikers or something similar.

I haven’t used the guides but I have used these. If the guides were their “hiking” insole this is the replacement.

What I liked about the guides is they didn’t have a very high arch support. The “Hike” models show a high arch don’t they?

Yes, they do have a high arch support. I got a pair of their custom made insoles a while ago and have liked them.

The mass produced ones worked well but they would get worn in certain areas quickly. The custom ones don’t have those same wear spots, I assume because they fit my foot better.

Actually, I believe the Guides did have high arch support, but were thinner for low volume applications. At least based on this selection guide. I don’t think the Guides and Hikers are apples to apples product.
