anyone ever try gel insoles?

i bought some gel insoles from dr. scholl to put in my sneakers which are about 5 months old. i haven't put them in yet but i'm curious if anyone has ever worn these around the park?

I've tried all sorts of insoles and to be honest the best pair that I found I got at Foot Locker. They're a bit more expensive. @$20 a pair but they come with a 1 yr warranty. If you wear them out or they start to tear or anything they'll replace them. I found Dr. Scholls to be ok but not great and they don't come with any warranty.

I tried the Dr. Scholl's gel insoles and I couldn't stand them. They were not wide enough in certain areas of my feet, and too wide in others. This resulted in a rubbing feeling, which brought on... blisters! So, now I'm very gun shy about this kind of thing. I really would like to find something, because my feet are always sore after a little bit of walking. I have bad feet!

guess i'd better stick them in my shoes and try them before i go to disney! blisters are what i'm trying to avoid, as well as sore feet!

Hi, I tried them but didn't care for them. I found them too thick. Maybe they are OK for men. I find a very good pair of walking or running sneakers the best for walking along with COOLMAX or THORLO type of socks. Much better than cotton, which stays wet!
