These Get The Job Done. - Me on Sep 9, 2010

-These insoles provide just a little bit of comfort cush, but not support so don't expect that.

-The printed guide on the bottom of the sole that allows you to cut them to size is slightly inaccurate. I would cut the line which is a size or 2 bigger than your actual shoe size, and then cut edges and corners necessary to fitting your particular kind of shoe.

-The odor fighting ability of these is pretty good. My main problem was getting rid of that smell females tend to get from wearing nylons and shoes at work all day, and this got the job done. With regular nylon washing and these insoles my shoes and feet remained odor free for about 2 months before replacing the insoles.

Overall, for the value and efficiency I will buy these insoles again. I have also turned 2 other females co-workers onto these insoles who also like them.

I hope this was helpful.

Work Well - Christopher A. Calab on May 21, 2010

These work well but unlike other shoeinserts they come in a size 12 not thirteen. So if your over a size 12 your out of luck with this insert. I have them in my size 13 boots but any larger and this would be very uncomfortable.

What Smell? - Gone! - kone "kone" on Feb 21, 2011

Confined in the combined leather, rubber, and nylon contraptions we collectively call "shoes", our feet do not air out until the shoes are removed. As a result, our feet sweat, and in time, that sweat promotes bacterial growth, and this produces the characteristic odor of "smelly" feet. In order to get rid of the odor, either one gets rid of the bacteria, which is virtually impossible, or one eliminates the sweat, or chemically treats the sweat. Dr. Scholl's Odor-X uses a sweat absorbing layer to wick off excess moisture, and then beneath this layer is a thin layer of activated carbon which deodorizes the moisture. Activated charcoal is carbon. Carbon is a natural filter that absorbs all sorts of impurities. It continues working until all the carbon is inactivated. Thus, these odor-x inserts will continue to render your feet and shoes odorless until the carbon is depleted. Depending on how much one's feet sweat determines how long the inserts are effective. Generally, in my experience, the inserts have to be replaced perhaps 3-4 times a year. This not only prolongs the life of your shoes, it also promotes a healthier foot/skin, and of course odor is neutralized too.

The inserts come in pairs (this pack has 4 pairs), and each is trimmed with a scissors to fit inside the shoes. A maximum size of a mens' size 12 is possible with these inserts. The inserts are not very thick, thus, one hardly notices them. However, if your shoes are tight to begin with, the added thickness may cause an uncomfortable tight fit.

All of my shoes have these inserts. When I take off my shoes at a guest's house, I no longer worry about my "stinking" feet.

Solved The Shoe Odor Problem! - Shocco "Bama" on Mar 18, 2010

These are a MUST have for anyone with a shoe odor problem. I tried shoe powders and they didn't get the job done. I also tried pure baking soda, but bacteria feed off corn starch products so that made any slight case of athletes feet worse! I tried other odor insoles and they only lasted a few days. I was at a loss as too what to do and the shoe odor was becoming a social problem.
Then I found Dr. Scholl's odor insoles. I tried them and figured they would fail like everything else. To my surprise these things have been wonderful. Shoe odor has greatly dimished since putting them in my shoes. Maybe now I can keep a pair of tennis shoes longer than a month without having to throw them out. Give these a try and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.*******
I did do a few other things that seemed to help. 1) I started buying thin canvas tennis shoes to allow my feet to breath 2) I bought 2-3 pairs of shoes that I wear on a regularly and rotate wearing them so they get a chance to dry out COMPLETELY before wearing them again. 3) Our bodies toxins are released throught sweat glands in the feet and can cause odor, so I did a full metal detox from my health food store. Those 3 things in combination with Dr. Scholl's inserts have 90% stopped the problem. HIGHLY recommend!!
UPDATE::: I think the metal detox was the real secret to my cure but I still wear the Dr. Scholl's inserts. You may have to replace them with new ones every month or two for really bad problems. But nothing else on the market can touch these inserts for removing odor problems. I give this product 5-stars all the way!
If this doesn't work for you, you might have a bad fungus problem. Look into Neem oil and possibly start using Funga Soap that contains tea tree oil.

Frikkin' Amazing! - nikescar on Oct 26, 2010

I can't believe how well these work. I had used powdered foot sprays before but they never did anything. These eliminated ALL odor from my shoes and feet.

I used them on a pair of older Adidas shoes that I had to stop wearing because after an hour of wearing them I could smell the odor when walking around. By the end of the first day almost all the odor was gone. By the end of wearing them the second day there was no odor at all.

I was a little worried that these would bunch up or slide around but they stay put just fine.

Very highly recommended!

Good Product, But Doesn't Last Long - Curious77 on Apr 20, 2011

These inserts are not bad, but they don't last as long as I would have expected them (meaning don't protect from odor for a long time). And they stick to your shoes which makes it a little bit hard to remove - they leave sticky bits behind. Not very pretty looking, but works for boots.

These Work Great! - T. Crow on Mar 8, 2011

I don't review things usually, but I simply had to review these! Before my review, I should point out: as another reviewer said, if you have bigger feet, you might be out of luck. But I'm a size 11.5 and had no problem.

To the point: these things work like a charm. I routinely "powerwalk" several miles around Manhattan at about 4.5mph for pleasure and to get where I'm going fast...and as the weather got above freezing, my feet and shoes started to get stinky after such walks. I read positive reviews of these insoles, went and bought some, and they're unbelievable. Tonight I walked ~5 miles at a very fast pace and was delighted to arrive at home with zero foot (or shoe) odor. I have no idea how long they'll last, but I'll continue buying them. Highly recommended.

Better Than Paying A Premium For Them At The Drugstore! - Peter R. Valentin on Apr 25, 2010

The four pack makes getting these insoles so much more cost effective...I rotate through them in a few weeks so that no matter what shoes I'm wearing, they feel fresh and clean.

Glad I Tried These! - Marebee on Dec 28, 2010

Truly the most effective innersole product I have tried for stopping foot odor -I would recommend it highly to anyone who has severe and very problematic moisture/odor problems.

Works Great - Doug fresh "Douglas" on Nov 24, 2008

These things are great, they do exactly as described, absorb odor & moisture. I used to have to buy new shoes after 6 months of wearing a pair because they would start to get smelly, no more with these insoles. They are fairly comfy as well, and are not very noticable if your shoes are sitting around the house.

Helped My Two Athletes - Mattalene on Dec 16, 2010

i have two boys that play basketball daily. I have tried others, but these work soooo well. This is the first time in a year that i have not had to creatively clean shoes every other day.

Seems To Hold Up - Brian R. Huber on Nov 4, 2010

It seems to work just fine. I had bought the eater brand and they kept folding up on themselves and rapidly began to deteriorate, but I've had these in my shoes for a couple months with no issue.

Have not had any problems and gave a pair to my father and they seem to work well for him too.

So Practical And Economical - zemes on Feb 17, 2010

These are not specialty insoles that provide arch support or anything like that. But they are so practical for daily wearing. Made of very comfortable materials. For $5 a pair, these are a great buy as plain insoles; the fact that they have deodorizing effect is just a huge bonus.

Sizing markings are clear and so easy to follow. Anyone who knows how to use a pair of scissors and also knows the size of the shoes will be able to do it within a minute or two.

I can hardly recall the last time when I was so happy with a $20 spending.

Best Odor Control Ever! - Reid Branson on May 25, 2009

I've tried lots of products, and tried to get by with cheaper ones, but nothing works as well as this product, including other products from the same company. I have no idea what they do right, but I have yet to find anything that works even half as well. I can't find them in any stores, though, so always have to order them online, which adds shipping cost. Still, considering that odor can make shoes completely worthless, I probably save money over the long run nonetheless. Highly recommended!

Really Work! - Jennifer L. McCullou on Jan 14, 2012

I bought really comfy but cheap shoes to wear around the house and was horrified when my feet would sweat and stink every time I put them on. I have never had this problem, so I knew it was the insoles in the new shoes. I tore out the old insoles and put in the odor fighting insoles and the wetness and odor stopped immediately. They really work!

Dryer Feet!! - S. McLean "stvmcl" on Jan 12, 2012

These shoe inserts work great at keeping my feet dryer and they do a good job at odor control. I recommend them!

No More Smell! - Skippy @ Ole Miss on Oct 31, 2011

I have a pair of Sperry Top Siders that I wear without socks. The smell got so bad that I felt I had to buy news shoes. I decided to try these first. After 24 hours, my shoes no longer smell and I didn't have to buy new shoes :)

Took Out The New Shoe Stink! - Steven Russell on Oct 31, 2011

I have a pair of new men's Ugg boots (regular leather outer with shearling lining and a Vibram sole). They smelled horribly of some sort of synthetic rubber/ammonia cat urine....something. They were making half of our house stink! I tried everything to get the smell out including continuous wear outside, dryer sheet wrapped cedar shoe trees for days at a time, No Odor deodorizing spray (great product btw), the Ugg brand boot freshener, direct sunlight outside for days, air ionizers/ozone, etc. Nothing would kill the stink until slipping these guys in. Within a day the odor was cut down by about 90% (and still dropping) so I can wear my boots again! I wholeheartedly recommend these to anyone not only with an old shoe/stinky foot problem, but also a new shoe odor issue as well!

Works For Regular Feet! - hyperhidrosis on Sep 29, 2011

I think this would work well if you have feet that sweat a normal amount, unfortunately, I have plantar hyperhidrosis (really sweaty feet). Unlike normal people who are afraid to take their shoes off, my feet actually smell 100x worse when I wear close-toed shoes.....(hard to explain). But yeah, if you have hyperhidrosis, this won't really help with the smell problem. If you have normal feet, I'm sure this will work really well for you. I don't blame it on the product, I blame it on my feet.

Great Product! - Ashley on Sep 3, 2011

I use these inside my gym shoes and am very pleased with how they work. I have minimalist shoes so sometimes I don't wear socks, these insoles are cushioned, comfortable, and absorbative (is that a word?). Each pair lasts quite a long time, the current pair I'm using I've had for over a month (and I Work out about 4 times a week in them) and they still have zero odor - I have to wash my shoes, but these guys stay fresh! Bottom line, I love these, great product.

Really Works, Comfortable - James E. Thornton "t on Aug 30, 2011

I was a little skeptical when I bought these. They work great! They really keep odors away and provide added comfort. If you have any type of foot odor, this these are just for you.

Effective! - Rom on Aug 4, 2011

I gave this to a friend and now she wants me to order more of these for here other shoes because it just works!

Using With Sandals - B. Nelson on Jul 4, 2011

I, like many have feet that sweat. I bought a pair of SAS sandals that were $140.
They have a leather insole. I then bought a pair of Dr Scholl's Odor-X insole & cut them to size.
I then put double sided carpet tape on the sandal, a piece in front & piece in back & then
put the insole in/on the sandal. I replace the insole when needed. Keeps the sandal
pad fresh & clean.
A side note, I have been buying the brown colored insoles as the sandals are brown.
After I size the insoles I color the white edging with a black marker.
Works for me & I no longer ruin sandals. My wife says only old people wear socks with sandals
so this is how I solved that problem. Guess she thinks I am still young. Thats good, right?

Price Too High - J. Pisk on Jul 1, 2011

great insoles,the best I'eve used hands down. However, for some misterious reason the price keeps going up. now almost $25 which is a bit on the expensive side for 4 sets of insoles no matter how good quality. I will try similar, more affordable insoles in the future. 4 stars only for being too expensive

They Actually Work! - R. Hernandez on Jun 1, 2011

I can't really say to much about insoles other than..
They are comfortable
They work as advertised, just that I'm replacing them just after a three weeks. They don't last too long.

Ups Delivers On Time And In Good Condition - Grizzz on Sep 23, 2010

no if and or buts about it ups did its job and brought me my package on time and in good condition the product fits well in my sneakers size 10

Great Odor Destroying Power! - Kristen E. Bogren "K on Jun 13, 2009

I go through other insoles about once every 2 weeks, these work for well over a month ( wear shoes with no socks about 4 times a week ). A definite must have!

A Must-Have - Jane Kay Boyer "lila on Sep 20, 2009

Bar none, the best product out there for those of us who aren't blessed with foot odor concerns. Comfortable too.

They Work Pretty Well... - M. Cole on Aug 20, 2010

They do what they say, fight odor. They last quite a while as well, which is a plus.

Better Than Advvertised - R. E. Fox on Jul 17, 2009

Dr Scholl's Odor Destroyer Super Comfort Insoles are both comfortable and effective. They also seem very durable. I highly recommend them.

THEY WORK AS HARD AS I DO - D. Fanning "cheap is on May 16, 2009

I finally found an insole that works for sweaty feet....these things last...they don't curl up...and when used with daily socks change they will give you that fresh dry feel,no matter how hard you work.

AAAAAMAZING! - Mrs. Anilkumar on Feb 12, 2009

let's just say, these work. you won't have to worry about stinky feet at the end of the day :) they're also very easy to put inside your shoes and they're very comfortable as well.
