I’m 56, and have been using the remind insoles in new set of K2 Ender boots. First season I can remember when I didn’t actually think about my knees. I’m sure it’s a combination of lots of factors, but foot comfort goes a long way in having a great day on the snow

Ever since I got plantar fasciitis from running in old skate shoes, I've been rocking shred soles. Great upgrade for my feet. Great video guys.

Rode my nidecker boots all season, didn't take the insoles out until I was putting them away for storage and man they are horrible. I will be looking to upgrade the insoles for next season and see what difference they make 🤙

Definitely worth it to try different types of insoles and see what works for you. I use a variety of Remind for snowboarding, hiking, everyday walking, and dress work shoes. Definitely help with my foot alignment, arch support, and impact dampening. Medics and Medic Impact for snowboarding and everyday, and the OG Cush model for some shoes with less vertical space up front. I bought a pair of the Remind Cushes for my mom, she started to have knee and foot issues about a year ago. She is in her late 60's and has been doing a ton of Ballroom and Latin dancing, like 2x a weekend almost every week for years. She said they were a game changer for her.

Thanks for covering insoles! Boots and insoles make such a difference with comfort. And comfort means you can ride more!

I have a very high medial arch and an almost flat lateral arch so the gamechanger’s moldability makes them very suited for my use. I was surprised by how much they expand when they mold. That might be why the stitching was required, the change in volume can be quite remarkable and there’s no way for adhesive to hold. Obvious downside is that if you need a lot of heel pocket on your footbed they probably aren’t the way to go because the gamechangers don’t gain much of one when molded. And the idea behind the flat insoles is a barefoot shoe style measure, the idea being to intentionally not support the arch to force your foot to be stronger, though I wouldn’t do this with snowboard boots for a variety of reasons.

Saving my knees out here. I would also throw out a recommendation for superfeet. They have a thin and regular winter insole for those of us who crowd the boot with our feet but it still does a great job!

To be fair here, I skate FP shoes, and they are the best feeling skate shoes I’ve owned when it comes to impacts.

Ive used the FP Gamechangers for skateboarding for years and they have helped me immensely. Threw some in my Vans boots this season and I definitely think it felt more comfortable than the V1 pop cushion. The one thing to note is you HAVE to heat up the FP insoles so they mold to your feet or its a waste of your money. Thanks for making consistently good content guys 👍

Used the stock vans to break in my boots. Definitely better than other stock insoles but they still flop around and lack support. Remind Cush were a huge improvement.

I grabbed the FP for my work boots. I work on a stone floor in wet conditions. Extremely dampening and held its shape for quite a while, but absolutely no arch support what-so-ever. Almost like the inverse of arch support. Tried superfeet, and those lasted about 2 weeks. Heel cup shredded into a million pieces. I'll give shred soles and remind a shot.

I've been running remind on my work boots and they've held up great

I find the stock insoles inner soles in my ride fuse work really well for me. They are definitely well built for stock insoles. First time I haven’t needed my sidas non custom insoles

Heel raise inserts did a lot for me. I noticed a deep squat put a lot of weight on my toes, same with a squat in the gym. Feels significantly more natural with the inserts.

love my shred soles. HIGHLY recommended, the only draw back was that i cracked the heal cup area after about a dozen days. but they still feel great

Remind for a few years now, hell yea. When boots are fresh I start with their lower-profile one (5mm?) and once my boots have a season or so where they start to feel a tad sloppy in the 2nd half of the day (sweaty feet gang)... I pop in the gel version (7mm?) and it really helps the boots come back to life and fit a bit tighter. Right or wrong it helps to not churn through boots quite as fast riding 60+ days a year. Remind insoles all day man

I got some of those fp insoles elite and after a week maybe pulled them out and put back in the stock insole. They felt too squishy and no board feel. I got them to take up some space in the boots since they were 5mm vs the 3mm stock insole. But definitely not worth the $70 I paid for those with shipping.

That game changers insole is really good for flat feet. Remind not bad but doesnt fill in as well.

SLAYER!!!

I switched from orange sidas mid insoles to the remind medic impact and had to remove the butterfly inserts in my boots. They’re much thicker and lift my heel into the perfect spot, w/ much better arch support. I was wearing thick socks to take up the extra space, but don’t have to do that anymore. I’ve had 4 pairs of fp insoles now, they’re comfy but had virtually no arch support. I could send you a molded fp insole if you want to prove that molding it doesn’t do much

You can remold them a couple times

Yep the "bowling ball test" is a marketing bs BUT For me personally fp gamechangers were the true gamechangers. They made my boots waaaay more comfortable and allowed me to ride much more without foot pain or soreness. Dampening is there for sure. Sometimes i have to switch to my old reminds or vans popcush when my main pair of boots get soaked during the day in spring and my feet just don't feel good on them in comparison to fp. And they are durable, glue quality is not an issue. I rode gamechangers for 4 seasons 50+ days each and they still last! With all respect, you even didn't mold them! Come on!

First off shoving them in an oven to mold them isn't going to change how I feel about these. Second off shoving them in an oven and not having a last to use to build a heel pocket and form an arch isn't going to help them. You guys are being sold a feature that you can't even properly use. You're getting maybe 20% of what you should from these. I've built a couple thousand insoles over the 10 years I was a boot fitter. If you don't have a last to build the footbed from it's worthless as it won't develop a real heel pocket to stabilize the ankle and line it up to the internal jbar, you can't build the arch properly or tweak it to compensate for supination or pronation. Basically you're not doing shit to help yourself and more than anything I'm betting it's sucking up volume in a boot that's probably too big for you and not fitting right.

@@AngrySnowboarderThe new FP Gamechanger Elite Pros have a custom heel pocket, you absolutely do need to put them in the oven, as the new models arch firms up afterwards. It is still not a huge amount of arch support, but it is more than original version and the dampening is incredible. The custom heel pocket provides arch stabilization. Ive used Superfeet, Sidas and FP Gamechangers (originals and elite pro).The new FP Elite Pros blow the others out the water for me.

I use the Sidas low arch winter foot beds as ones with high arches cramp my feet. I skate the FP's and those have been good for the impacts. If you have space you can layer an insole that fits you best, and then use one of the thin flat FP's for the impact

@@AngrySnowboarder I can't fit two as my boots are snug as they are, but they do offer newer insoles that have a better shaped heel cup which you might have missed

Totally agree

I wouldn’t completely write the FPs off. Those things rule for skateboarding. The elite foam is super dense and durable. It doesn’t ever pack out and get paper thin in the toes like your typical insole. And the impact protection is great. I’m just not sure how much it’s needed in a snowboard boot, because I’ve never gotten a heel bruise in boots. I imagine that the dampening is pretty good though. And their marketing is pretty definitely pretty corny haha. It almost does them a disservice and makes them seem cheaper than they are.

FP's are nice insoles for walking on hard surfaces or skatebooarding, but they're not for snowboarding. Sidas, Patriot, Superfeet are solid choices for a Board or Skis. I'm afriad I can't easily get Remind or Shred soles in the UK, but they seem like nice options if your foot shape fits them!

Do you know if there’s any significant difference between the DFP and Sidas customs? Got some DFPs made, but I’m finding that they are causing some big toe irritation towards the end do the day that I presume is more related to boot fit, but I also felt the insoles might be a touch narrow.

I run Superfeet Winter Thin. I find their arch support to be much more supportive and a fair bit longer than Remind. Definitely high enough for my feet, which have higher arches. That said, I had to put one size up in my boots and cut more off the end to get a long enough arch support, even with their longer arch (insole size E in 32 TM2 Jones, size 8). Have had no issues with lack of heat, even in -30 days. Didn't have cold issues in my old boots either- Burton Kendos. IMO the important part of insoles for warmth is making sure the insole fits your foot contour as well as possible, so you can bootfit better to distribute pressure evenly, and allow your foot (mostly toes) to wiggle, but not move in the boot. This way you don't cut off circulation, and you can wiggle your toes to keep blood flowing when you stand still. Better blood flow means warmer feet. ​@@AngrySnowboarder You mentioned good for mid-low arches for Winter Support- what are your thoughts on Superfeet with arch support matching your arch? I know they have various arch heights & shapes, and the shops near me that sell them seem to sell more green/copper/carbon than winter for snowboarding. As well, your opinion on importance of heel &/or forefoot cushioning vs each other & arch support? I always found good arch support helped the front enough that cushioning up there felt less important than the other two, but curious to hear your opinion- you've done much more boarding and almost definitely hit much more park than me

@AngrySnowboarder

3 ай бұрын

The problem with Superfeet is they use a harder posting that changes how the boot will flex. They're realistically designed for a ski boot over a snowboard boot. If that's a non issue for you then that's awesome. I always used to have to cut into the posting to create some flex points. Toe cushioning you're dead on as the arch will compensate for that and most people do not land on their toes aggressively enough to warrant it. If they are, they need to reconsider how they ride. But heel dampening is far more important. If you think about how you're landing on a snowboard if you're doing it right you're either centered on your foot perfectly with even weight distribution or you're slightly heel heavy. As such you want to make sure that your binding, boot shell, and insole are going to absorb as much of that as possible before it gets to the foot in the boot. This also makes sense as chatter on a snowboard will go up into the binding, boot, and then arch/heel to the ankle, knee, hip, and finally the lower back. So you want to dissipate that as much as possible and save your body that stress. A great footbed will not only cradle the arch and allow proper movement inside it, but it'll also dampen that energy and reduce joint stress, muscle fatigue, and pain. Good posting on a footbed aids with this while bad posting will amplify these issues. It also comes down to what you want from the performance of the footbed as well.

Wrong FP insoles work saved my knees. FP have high and low arch the shoes feel already broken in.
