Updated Gear Review: Aftermarket Insoles

On By GeoKsIn Clothing & Gear Reviews1 Comment

A year after we opted for aftermarket insoles instead of the flimsy ones that usually come with a pair of new shoes/boots, we've racked up more than 15 million steps between the two of us - enough distance to inform a meaningful update to our original review of aftermarket insoles. Plus, Cadence® added a new variation to its line up, and we share our initial thoughts on the new, blue, Low Volume model designed for lower volume footwear. And we share an easy fix for squeaking insoles/orthotics.

Gear Review: Aftermarket Insoles

On By GeoKsIn Clothing & Gear Reviews6 Comments

For the last few years, whenever something related to age comes up in conversation, Mr. GeoK has calmly stated that we're middle aged. I've steadfastly disagreed, arguing that middle age is based on how you feel, not a number. But I think I'm finally ready to concede that he's right. The tipping point for me? The decision to swap out the flimsy OEM insoles in my walking shoes and hiking boots for aftermarket insoles that treat my middle aged feet with the respect they deserve!
