Question : What are the benefits of Dr. Scholl's® Run Active Comfort Insoles?
Answer : They help relieve and prevent pain from common sports injuries, such as runner’s knee, shin splints, and plantar fasciitis. They also provide support, added cushioning, and shock absorption for longer activity.
Question : What is the unique design of these insoles?
Answer : Dr. Scholl's® Run Active Comfort Insoles feature a unique 3 zone heel-to-toe design that reduces shock and keeps you on your feet longer. They also have reinforced arch support for a better weight transition.
Question : How does Polygiene StayFresh technology work?
Answer : Polygiene StayFresh technology neutralizes odors and keeps the insoles feeling fresh even after extensive use.
Question : What is good for high arch?
Answer : Find a Dr. Scholl's diagnostic machine (Do a search for Dr. Scholl diagnostic machine + your zipcode). Once it diagnoses your foot, it will recommend the exact Dr. Scholl product specific to your foot.
Question : Is there much difference between running insoles and sport massaging gel?
Answer : That would probably depend on your personal need for arch support. These running insoles have high and firm arch support and are more adequate for heavier set people who may even have an issue with plantar fasciitis. The sport massage one just adds additional gel support throughout the foot without targeting specific areas.
Question : How does the athletic series compare to the active series?
Answer : The products are the same. Just the packaging is different.
Question : Which insert has the most heel support/cushioning?
Answer : The Athletic series is a tad thicker than the Active series. Both provide good heel support/cushioning.
Question : Is this good for trail running (uphill and downhill)? I run 10-13 miles.
Answer : Yes, these insoles are suitable for trail running and provide good shock absorption compared to regular insoles.
Question : I will use the insoles for walking 5 miles a day and golf 3 times per week. Which athletic series would be a better choice: running or sport?
Answer : The running series has better arch support and is recommended, especially if you have plantar fasciitis or need more support for everyday walking.
Question : Why isn't this exact pair sold in size 10? I used to purchase my size!
Answer : The Medium size of this particular pair seems to have been discontinued or suffered a long shortage. The larger sizes and Women's sizes are still available, but the arch and shock padding may be slightly different in those sizes. It is recommended to check for alternative options.
Question : Are these inserts thinner in the front half than the sport gel inserts from Dr. Scholls? I need arch support with ultra thin front/toe half.
Answer : These inserts are a little thinner in the front half compared to the sport gel inserts. If you are looking for inserts with ultra thin front/toe half, you may want to consider other specific options made for high arches.
Question : Do I leave my shoe insole out when I wear the Dr. Scholls insoles?
Answer : Yes, you must take out your old inserts and replace them with the Dr. Scholls insoles. If you don't remove the old inserts, the shoes may not fit properly.
Question : I wear a size 10.5. Do I need to buy the large and trim the toes, or will the medium still work (although it only goes up to size 10)?
Answer : If you wear a size 10.5 running shoe, you can try the medium size of the Dr. Scholls insoles. They usually fit without needing to be trimmed.
