my experience w/ both
Hi there,
I have tried both kinds. Superfeet (at least the kind I tried) were much more rigid. I think they had more of a cupped heel, so it might be tough to cut. I can't find mine (don't use them anymore) so I can't check. I did trim the toe area to fit. Spenco cross trainers can be cut all along the surface of the insole, and they expect you to trim them to your shoe size. They do have good arch support. I was introduced to these years ago when I was having a terrible time finding running shoes that fit after my favorite model was discontinued. Some Saucony's I tried on fit well except they didn't have enough arch support. The sales clerk brought out a pair of Spencos and wow, I had the perfect fit for me. I'm still wearing Saucony shoes w/ Spencos for running... I hope that helps.

I like the super feet, but my husband just hated them. He has really high arches, if that helps. The arch support is good for me, but not for him.

Karen, Wendy and Loretta: Thank you VERY much for your replies.
I found a terrific website, www.feetrelief.com, that sells only orthotics and insoles that has good prices and much information. They give recommendations for people with high, medium and low arches and have a 30-day money back guarantee. They accept various methods of payment including PayPal and shipping is very reasonable. Thanks again!
