Plenty of shoes can work just fine without added insoles, but sometimes insoles can make a huge difference in a shoe’s comfort and performance. For readers who need added arch support, suffer from foot problems like plantar fasciitis, or just have a pair of not-so-comfy shoes you don’t want to give up, we’re rounding up the best insoles for women’s shoes today.
Readers, do you wear insoles? What are your favorites?
There are lots of insoles out there that can make you more comfortable on your feet, whether you’re walking around the office or doing a weekend hike.
The Best Insoles for Women’s Dress Shoes
Vionic
Considering that Vionic is a reader-favorite brand for comfortable shoes, including heels, it’s not surprising that they also make great insoles. The brand’s insole guide will help you find the right product line for you, whether it’s their Active Series, Relief Series, Relief 3/4 Series, or Slimfit 3/4 Series. Designed by a podiatrist, the company’s insoles can be worn with casual flats/heels, athletic shoes, walking shoes, and more.
Vionic’s flexible, orthotic insoles provide arch support, shock absorbency, cushioning, and stability — plus, you can trim them to size if needed. They’re designed to address foot, arch, heel, and knee pain; and foot fatigue.
The pictured Women’s Relief Insole is available in XS-L and is $40/pair at Vionic and Amazon. The insole fits women’s shoe sizes 4.5-12.

Superfeet
I love using Superfeet’s running insoles in my sneakers, and I’m on my second pair so far. They’re not exactly cheap, but they’re high-quality and perform really well. They’re also easy to cut to size.
Not sure which insoles to get? Use Superfeet’s Insole Finder, which can point you to the right products to use in everything from dress shoes to hiking boots to sneakers.
This Run Women’s Comfort insole is available at Amazon and at Superfeet (free shipping) for $54.99/pair. The insole sizes fit women’s shoe sizes 4.5-12. Another product to try, designed especially for high heels, is the Casual Easyfit High Heel Insole ($35).
Pedag
While not as well-known as Superfeet, the German brand Pedag (founded in 1955) is definitely one to check out. Their insoles are made from natural, sustainable materials in a carbon-neutral factory, and they only contain safe, water-based adhesives.
Pedag’s products address bunions, arch pain, ball of foot pain, toe problems, and much more, and are designed for various types of shoes, from heels to sneakers.
This Lady Gel insole, specially designed for high heels, is $15/pair at Pedag and Amazon.
