The media could not be loaded. Comfort 5/5, Support 5/5, Walkability 5/5, Runnability 5/5, Hideability 5/5, Variability 3.5/5, Ease of Preparation 4/5, Stack Stick 3.5/5, Packaging 4/5, Overall 3.5/5

Great ideas, poor execution. Great branding, including on the website. Packaging was the second best experience out of all of them so far (Mendez being 1st), box was crushed by the time it arrived though. The slide-in security mechanic of each panel to each other is the best we've seen, but the bottom piece still falls off (*see attached video*). The top material is nice. Great job with the width and length, one of the only ones that extends past 9ft (11.5ft). That being said, the air bubble slides out at the touch of a finger... not sure whose idea that was. These feel great, nothing but praises for the comfort and support. Would've been 5 stars if they were made better.

UPDATE: Original Review below but want to increase rating as the VOC smell is gone after a few weeks and these have no lasted for several months with no issues. Quality was better than expected.

So first off- the reviews that complain about not being able to wear these with sneakers are not worth reading. Think of the mechanics of what you are doing. You are stuffing a shoe to add height- OF COURSE your foot will feel cramped and fall out the back of it ROFL. Anyone who thought these would magically work w any shoe is smooth brained.*

Now thats out of the way:
1. First thing upon opening- very strong rubber chemical smell. Im sensitive to VOCs and these trucked my nose. If you arent sensitive to it then "meh".
2. The individual pieces do not adequately clamp together. They have notches and grooves to fit together but they dont actually snap together or stay in place so a non abrasive glue may be necessary if you were looking to keep them maxed out.
3. If you want to do this right, you really will need a pair of shoes thats one size too big for your foot. This would allow you to place these in them and not completely squeeze the shoe around your foot. Again- think of what these are....they are stuffing. You are standing on stuffing lol.
4. It was pretty funny when I dropped these in some hiking boots. I became 6 ft tall and it felt weird lol. I plan on using these with a costume to volunteer at the kiddo hospital where I live and im a little short for a stormtrooper (ah-yuck.) But the extra height will help sell the costume and more importantly- cheer these sick kiddos up.

In closing- they work but arent a magical solution with your current shoes. You will need to buy shoes that work for these and shelf those boat shoes. But more importantly- go get a costume and volunteer to visit some sick kids in the hospital where you live. Imagine how good it will feel when you pretend to be tall while making a kid laugh and smile.

*three stars because they work but quality of pieces was kinda low end and they stink lol.

**also- there was a guy on here that reviewed some of these of a different brand who wore these when he was already 6'2 ....bruh like...you have a short mans complex at 6'2? Online dating has rekt us all...

I wear a size 10, and this fit after a cut down to match, perfectly in my sneakers. I could fit all three layers comfortably in my shoes. I did have to loosen my shoe laces completely and then retighten but not.

I wore them for about 5 hours in a day and didn't feel any pain or become uncomfortable. Oh, the shoes I wore were high top sneakers. I haven't tried them in standard size. I imagine I'd only fit the base, maybe the second but definitely not all 3.

Long story short, my son had his tibia shortened about 2in. These inserts seemed like a good idea until he could be fitted for inserts by the doc's referenced provider. I dozed him for his shoe range so they were a bit long and poked out of his walking boot. But- we trimmed the end with scissors and problem solved. The height increase is stackable/locking increments which is super helpful while his bone grows. He wipes them with a counter top organic cleaner and they're still holding as of brand new since the day of purchase. The "increasers" meet about midway of his arch so we did have an issue with the foot wanting to slide forward but I purchased some cushions for the ball of the foot (popular in the high heel world) and that issue was solved. Overall- the money for this product and the few needed to make modifications was well worth it vs the $1000 insert!

So I've had these in for about a day now and let me just say, wow. 100% game changers, can't go wrong with a pair of these. Really really good cushioning. More importantly the lift you get with them is outstanding.

At first I wasn't too sure about getting them and now I see why so many have gotten a pair. The impact made is unquestionably worth it. Very good stuff. Surprised just how much you can feel even just an increase of a one inch edge up. Amazing. 5/5 stars across the board when it comes to the comfort, fit and design. Extremely satisfied with my order, will buy again!!
