Type 1 Inserts for shoes

What’s the best

Hi all. Have neuropathy that is painful if I walk more than about quarter of a mile. The ball of my foot, then some crampy toes and general fatigue. I have the usual pins and needles, coldness, stabbing, etc at other times but it’s the walking I miss. I have Sketchers and New Balance trainers, but I feel like I need inserts still. Any good ones?

My podiatrist has orthotics and insoles on sale which are customised to the patients feet. As for what's the best, I do not know I would have to go by my podiatrists advice.

I’ve an appointment with the orthotics people but a 12/14 week wait to see them, then a wait while they make some inserts. I’m tramping around Edinburgh at Easter and fed up my feet won’t let me. I’m on Alpha Lipoic Acid, B vitamins and Turmeric tablets x

That's one long wait .... lambswool inserts in the meantime?

That's a long time, must be NHS.

I have the same problem and have been looking for 3 years for decent insoles with no real success. I wear Skechers GoWalk shoes 100% of the time and they really help, even for work.
As for insoles the best I've found are
