Customer Review
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 October 2022
Firstly, fitting: These run too large in fitting terms. I suggest ordering at least one size down from your shoe size or if you are concerned, maybe two sizes down. I ordered one size down to my shoe size, whilst the footwear they're for are large versions of that size. The one size down fits perfectly. For other shoes I have which are smaller versions of their shoe size I think I may order two sizes down.
Review.
Some customers seem to have had different experiences with these insoles.
Mine is that I was very impressed upon first inserting them and walking about, but in a few days of little use they are compressed to be virtually as thick as very thin, cheap quilted style insoles (which aren't memory foam).
This was pretty expectable. I'm not surprised. Considering I paid £6.45 for a size 13 adult, they're not much dearer than the cheap, non-memory insoles which start at the thickness these soon get to.
Putting that aside, I should compare them with the fairly disposable memory foam insoles I have used for years (used to be 99p a pair in places such as Pounndstretcher, pound stores, Home Bargains, B&M but now would be double to triple that price).
The disposable memory insoles are good and stay quite good - better than these riemot insoles - for 3 or 4 weeks, maybe less time, depending on use. So if you can find them and are OK with changing insoles every month or so, they should be better for you. Sometimes I used to use two of those disposable memory insoles in the same shoe, which was really good. However it would be so much better to live in a non-disposable, sustainable world especially where plastics are concerned.
I quite like the riemot insoles, and I am imagining (but just imagining) they will keep their current function and comfort for maybe around 6 to 8 weeks, maybe longer.
They have lost their original memory cushioning, but they retain some comfort. This comfort is not as good as the disposable memory insoles which last up to 3 or 4 weeks. Though remember that the disposable versions fall apart anyway usually by a month. I imagine these will last double that time or longer whilst not being as comfortable.
There is still an amount of half decent cushioning here in the riemots, though they're quite thin already. They are probably better than the cheap non-memory versions I first talked about (including some supposed "sports" versions I've tried for normal use). At the price I paid I have to say these riemots are around their money and everything is pretty predictable on value for money terms. You will not be "making a steal" by any means but they will satisfy some people.
These insoles tell you you're not going to come across really comfortable, lasting memory insoles at around this budget price, while they're not bad for as long as they will last.
I can tell from wearing them that some people will think they're poor and some people will think they're working well for them.
They are budget insoles. If you would be thinking about good quality, good function and lasting memory insoles, I don't know if you'll find them. In any event, it's unlikely that they would be around this price if you were to find them.
