I have superfeet in both my hockey skates and snowboarding boots.  Helps with my flatter arch.

ALWAYS get aftermarket insoles.  there are no stock snowboard insoles that i'm aware of that are actually any good, even in the highest end boots.

this will be my 5th season using superfeet.  they fit my arch/foot shape the best and sit the best in my boots.

good insoles make boots fit way better.  for example, nike zoom forces are pretty much made for my exact foot, they fit so good, but before i tried them with my superfeet, i just felt "meh" about them.  later that year i put superfeet in and then tried some on, and i could hardly believe the difference.

also been using superfeet in all my shoes for years.  got one of my shop riders to try them out, finally, and now he's totally converted.  he said everything was better.  no foot pain, much better support, much better when taking landings like skating stair sets or whatever.. he's loving them.

i would gladly pay a couple hundred bucks for custom insoles, but superfeet are doing me great so far.  eventually i'll invest in customs, though.

SOLE also makes good ones, and check out shred soles too (snowboard-specific insoles)

i've used them in work boots and just started in recently in every day shoes. It's helped with knee problems. Personally I wouldnt spend more than $50 for a pair but I'm definitely trying my work boot pair with my snowboard boots this season.

at first its a bit awkward...especially if your a flip-flop wearer
mainly cause your foot is not use to the support

couple of rides later... definitely notice the difference 

not really an expensive investment for superfeet 

35 bucks 
free shipping US i believe

it also relieves your arch muscles of having to do extra work when they're not supported by a proper insole. one of the main reasons for foot cramps and pain is improper arch support.  it makes a big difference.

also, the better fit can potentially allow your boots to fit better to the point that they ride better.  better response, wasting less energy, much better on your feet and knees and everything while riding and landing and all that.

there's really no reason not to get them... you can't even pull the "it looks dumb" line like you can with helmets (not that that's a good enough reason not to wear a helmet, i'm just saying...)

Superfeet. Seriously. I got the red ones since they are for cold weather, and they make your feet feel so much better than the piece of foam in the bottom of snowboarding boots.
And kel, the heel is formed out, and it is extra big around the toe area. You line up your old ones and trim the toe arch to fit your boot.

I use inserts. Can't live with out them. I have them in my Burton Sabaths. I have pretty flat arch so get pain in my shins something awful. I went to my local board shop and they fit me for inserts and heated them to my feet. Cost was about 120 bucks for both. Well worth the money.

But an insole will really drag down my sweet socks brah!!  

I use these bad boys right here: http://www.profootcare.com/p-triad.html.  They are 3/4 length, super comfy, and cost less than $10 at walmart.  I took out the stock insole in my Burton Boots, and threw these in.

Superfeet (for example) makes them in a number of different arch profiles.  I got mine in-store and was fitted with a number of different profiles, and concluded that the blue was the best match for me.  If none of the pre-formed ones fit you usually have a few other options.  A good shop should be able to fit you for a set of custom cork foot beds.  Sole makes a few options that you toss in the oven to heat up, then mold them to your foot.

I found them a bit uncomfortable the first time I wore them for an extended time because my feet weren't used to the extra support.  I'd recommend wearing them in your normal shoes for a few days before going boarding so that you can get used to them.

I wear insoles. Custom insoles, superfeet, etc. if you ride more than a few days a year. No reason not to buy them. I use them in my sports cleats and work boots. Makes riding all day much more comfortable.
There is no reason not to buy them

i prefer the half insoles, just the ones that are for ur heels and arch. i personally find that the half insole overall makes it more confortable to stand in ur boots all day long and relieves stress on ur heel, but it still gives u better control while riding because u have more sensitivity on the balls of ur feet. i tried full insoles before and i feel like the extra gel/cushion under the balls of ur feet hinders my toe-side sensitivity

I always thought it won't be a big difference till I got a pair of Superfeet.
Wow. With the stock insoles, it felt fine. With Superfeet, it made the stock insoles feel like crap. I never got foot pain, but with Superfeet, I feel that my muscles of my feet is under less stress and made my boots feel more responsive.

I wear superfeet on my boots and all my skate shoes.
Got the Blue ones, which are neutral pronation I believe.
My wife has the Green ones which are for over pronation.
Been using them for over 2 years now and will never go without.

Real insoles are not sold at Walmart. Get the superfeet. I think they are about $30-$40, but well worth it. 

A few years ago, my next door neighbor, upper mgmt at Sole Tech (Es, Etnies, Emerica, ThirtyTwo,) hooked me up with a free pair of 32 Lashed. They felt great around the house but on the mountain, the pain was horrible. I ended up buying a pair of Burton Hail and those feet better with pain but less pain. At this point, there was no way I'm gonna buy another pair of boots. I ended buying green Superfeet. Most of the pain went away and I was finally able to enjoy riding instead of worrying about my feet. Best money I ever  spent. Between then and now, I have gone through probably 5-6 boards and 6-7 pairs of bindings but I'm still riding the same boots. Moral of the story... Superfeet saved snowboarding for me.

I've been wearing superfeet for years, but my new 2011 salomon dialogues came stock with really impressive "Mystic" insoles (look a lot like superfeet) that I don't think are going to be throw-aways.  I've only ridden them two days...we'll see

Most boot liners (at least all the ones I have had) have a removable insole pad inside the liner.  Remove that and use it to determine the shape you need to trim from the new contoured footbed.  Then place the new footbed inside the liner where the old pad was.  It shouldn't make much of an increase in thickness since you're replacing the old pad.

What you're looking for is something like Superfeet or Sole supportive footbeds, not something like the Dr. Sholls you can pickup at Walmart.  Check out either a ski/snowboard shop or sometimes sporting goods stores (I picked up a pair at Sports Chalet).  Or you can find them online.

ok i guess i had better check this out since everyone seems to be singing the ode to insoles on here. i've never used them and don't have any pain in my feet. then again i also don't do park and jumps, which indubitably puts more stress on your feet. either way, i suppose if a shop has them so i can try them on, it'd be good to see whether they improve things for me as well.

you really don't need the red one even though it advertised for boarding (they have different colors if you check their website). you can use what ever fit you the best, it might be the blue, the green or the pink/orange (for the ladies). walmart don't carry them, your best bet will be dick's sport or sport authority if you have one near by.

You can get them online but remember they have to be heated up and formed to your foot.

There probably are some home methods to doing that but its probably better to do it where you buy them.

If you've ever been to a ski shop you have probably seen one of these before.



This is where they custom fit the super feet for you.  That box under the chair is a heater to heat them up so they form to your foot.

I've considered custom insoles and still considering.

They are like $200 or something which isn't cheap for 2 pieces of foam.

Ok thanks guys, just ordered the SuperFeet green ones.
 
So should I just take those in when I go to find some boots at my local snowboard shop...
 
Trimmed or non-trimmed etc.?

you can do it yourself, it's super easy.  with both insoles upside down, lay the boot's insole on top of the superfeet with the heels lined up.. then trace around the boot's insole onto the superfeet, then trim.

Ok ya that makes sense, I mean if I am going into the store to buy new boots..
(currently do not have snowboard boots)
Find a pair my size and take the boot's insoles out and trim my pair in the store... ?
 
or?
