Shoe insoles: Birkenstock made of wool, Blundstone
Shoe insoles include wool insoles, replacement insoles, comfort insoles, and insoles for boots.
The wool insole Birkenstock keeps your foot warm in a boot or winter shoe; the comfort insole Crep Protect cushions your step, and Blundstone replaces the one in their boots.
Wool Insoles Birkenstock
The wool insoles Birkenstock slip into closed shoes for winter, isolating the foot from the cold ground. The wool insole also absorbs moisture from the foot.
Insoles Birkenstock: Tradition and Andermatt
The Birkenstock Tradition insoles and the replacement Birkenstock Andermatt leather insoles extend the life of a pair with a worn inner sole. The replacement insole is chosen according to the shoe size.
Boot Insoles: Blundstone and Ariat
The Blundstone Xtreme Premium insoles, from the Tasmanian brand, and the Ariat Pro Performance insoles, from the American western boot brand, fit into boots and shoes. The boot insole adds cushioning for long days.
Comfort Insoles: Crep Protect Insoles
The Crep Protect Insoles Comfort fit into trainers for extra cushioning. The trainer insole can sometimes be trimmed to the exact size of the shoe, and is also suitable for walking shoes worn all day.
How to choose insoles
The shoe size first: the insole matches the size of the shoe, or can be trimmed to fit. Then consider usage: wool for cold, foam for cushioning, leather for dress shoes. A thick insole takes up space in the shoe: it fits well in a slightly larger shoe. If too long, the insole bends at the end and can dig into the toes.
Insoles, shoes and care: the complete selection
The men's shoes collection includes ankle boots, boots and dress shoes, while sneaker care offers cleaners, laces, and creams. The insole and shoe tree extend the life of a pair.
When to change your insoles
When the insole is compressed, torn or still smells despite washing, or when the shoe feels less comfortable than on the first day. A new insole restores cushioning to a pair still in good condition: the inner insole wears out before the shoe.
Insole care
Remove them after a damp day to let them air dry, away from a radiator. Wool insoles can be brushed, while foam insoles can be hand washed in lukewarm water: a dry insole smells less.
Insoles for oversized shoes and trainer insoles
A sole for oversized shoes, thicker than the original insole, fills the space and prevents the heel from slipping out while walking. In a slightly large trainer, a comfort insole provides support under the arch. Some insoles can be cut with scissors to match the shoe size template.

Frequently asked questions about insoles
What size insoles should I take?
The size of the shoe into which the insole will be placed. If between sizes, choose the larger one and trim the insole along the old one: the trimming is done with scissors.
Should I remove the original insole?
Yes, if it is removable, to keep space for the foot; adding an insole on top reduces the interior volume. A shoe with a glued insole is only suitable for a thin insole.
Can a wool insole be worn in summer?
Wool regulates temperature and absorbs sweat, but it is mostly worn in closed winter shoes. In summer, a thin insole made of leather or foam is preferable.
How to avoid odors in shoes?
Change pairs every day, remove the insoles to let them dry and wear socks made of natural materials. A wool insole absorbs moisture.
How long does a pair of insoles last?
It depends on usage: a few months for a pair worn daily, longer if alternated. A compressed insole no longer cushions: it’s a sign it needs to be replaced.
