Key Differences

Superfeet Green

High profile insole that is good for all arch types, especially high foot arches
Thick but not too thick, and able to fit into most shoes
Widest and deepest heel cup provides max support
Professional-grade orthotic support for all-purpose use

We Spoke to Superfeet, Who Said: "The [Superfeet] Green Insole offers affordable, professional-grade orthotic support, performance, and comfort for anyone who wants their footwear to fit and feel better. It does have a high profile and is not too thick for most shoes. This insole features the widest and deepest heel cup that offers maximum support and can help with natural shock absorption. The Green Insole can be used in all types of footwear. This insole is considered a high-profile, high-volume insole."

Superfeet Blue

Medium profile insole is better for medium foot arches
Thinner design for tighter-fitting footwear
Heel cup absorbs heavy impact activities
Ideal for running and other forms of exercise

We Spoke to Superfeet, Who Said: "[Superfeet] Blue is a medium profile insole with long-lasting support packed into a thinner and more versatile shape. The stabiliser cap provides structure and support while the heel cup and high-density foam layer work together to naturally absorb impact, cushion, and support the foot. This is also a great option for anyone looking for a high-performance insole in a sleeker fit for tighter-fitting shoes or shoes without removable insoles"

What Makes Superfeet Insoles Special?

"Shape equals comfort" - Superfeet

For those who are new to Superfeet insoles, you may be wondering - what exactly makes them so special? Loved by many of our customers, Superfeet insoles have a biomechanical design/shape that helps with underpronation and/or overpronation (when feet roll outwards/inwards excessively), aids in proper alignment and weight distribution, provides pain relief from plantar fasciitis, and more.

Although Superfeet insoles come in a range of colours, the right Superfeet insole for you will depend on your foot type, footwear, activities and personal preference. This article focuses on the differences between Superfeet Green and Superfeet Blue, and what each insole is designed for, to help you make the right choice.

Enjoy All the Comfort, Whatever the Colour

We can't stress enough that if you've already narrowed down your search to these two pairs of insoles, most of your work is already done. Both of these insoles are some of our favourites for comfort, cushioning and support, and they've both received some great feedback from our customers. We think the Superfeet Blue Insoles edge the Greens in terms of sports performance with their slim profile, while the Superfeet Green Insoles can't be beaten as everyday work or leisure insoles. Whatever your choice, you can't go wrong with either of these insoles!
