Are These Insoles Worth $300? SheepFeet 2 Year Field Tested Review

I have spent a lifetime hiking in the mountains, and I also have Morton’s Neuroma which has led me to be very particular about both my boot choice and the insoles I use inside them. I have tried multiple custom orthotics and was always intrigued but sceptical about Sheepfeet. I have now run my custom insoles from Sheepfeet for the last two years and felt compelled to post a review. I hope this review is helpful.

Been wearing superfeet insoles for over 10 years now. I have them in every pair of shoes & boots I own! Thanks for the great reviews, keep producing, we’ll keep watching!

I've Hiked over 3,500 miles in Sheepfeet. (Pacific Crest Trail and many many hunts and back packing trips) I also have Morton Nuroma on my left foot. I can say first hand that they are amazing and worth the money. I have sent the insoles in for refurbishment once and the customer service is OUFSTANDING. P.S I used my PCA account for the insoles. Great Review!

Thanks for the review. As an orthotic wearer I have found that they make a huge difference in how my foot feels after a day of hiking

Great review. I'm 57 years old and have worn orthotics for many years. I have flat feet and have had two neuromas cut out of my right foot. Arch supports are very important and a necessity to me. I bought a pair of SheepFeet and in my opinion, they are not worth the money. I feel a pair of PowerStep inserts are just as good and they have multiple types. I finally found a great place to make my custom orthotics, which provide the best support I have found. Unfortunately, they are expensive, but my feet need them. As you said, the inserts in most boots today are crap and for most people, the good over-the-counter brands under $60 will work well.

Really trust your opinion. ordered me some YourSoles. thanks brother

Thanks for the analysis, Jay! It seems that there is often a premium in price as soon as a brand makes a product specifically for hunters. I've found that doing foot strengthening exercises and using "barefoot" shoes during my workouts helps a lot in getting my feet/ankles/calves ready for long hikes in the backcountry.

Just was looking at Sheepfeet and other insoles. I have Kenetrek and Zamberland boots. Love them both but could go with an insole upgrade.

@MindfulHunter 5 дней назад

Definitely makes a big difference.

@cal8362 Месяц назад

I first got sheep feet 3 years ago because I was having plantar fasciitis issues (my health insurance paid for them) I got one with and without the heel stablizer. I love running them without heel stabilizer and haven’t had any feet issues since I started using them.

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

Have heard from a few people now who prefer without the heel stabilizer.

@armassassinstrengthshop Месяц назад

Tried a pair of sheepfeet and did 2 revisions and couldnt get my R foot to feel good with them so they refunded me. They were comfortable when standing/walking but at rest they pressed on my arch weird and cause significant discomfort even after 25-30 hrs of wear-time. Tried multiple lacing techniques with no change. Switched to Superfeet Adapt Hike Max and feel fantastic and got a set all 3 sets of my boots including my workboots where I stand 10-14hrs a day.

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

Yeah fair enough. That’s why I made the comment about feet being hyper personal. Just gotta keep trying until you find what works for you. Good feedback.

@Basicsareeverything Месяц назад

Can we hear more about your experience with lanthrop and sons custom boots? I'm thinking of going that route this year.

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

Go listen to episode 11 of my podcast. It’s on RU-vid and podcast platforms. I tell the whole story.

@13hawks32claws Месяц назад

The answer would be no for me. I can count on one hand the amount of times I’ve had foot problems and I feel blessed to not have them. Great review! 💪🏻

i love your videos man. if you're ever in the kootenays id love to have a chat with you. i run a B&b here if youre ever in town come stay.

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

Thanks man! Good to know!

@CascadeBackcountry Месяц назад

I also always wondered why my expensive shoes and boots come with garbage insoles! You should give the Soles -5 haha

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

Definitely doesn’t make sense.

@GostoFan Месяц назад

Does the heel stabilizer change the drop? Could it raise the heel up to high changing boot fit?

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

That’s definitely possible. I’ve talked to people who did have this issue.

@travisscott6257 Месяц назад

Every aftermarket insole that I've tried raise my heel, (as the insole is thicker than stock ones), and gives me horrible heel blisters. Any advice

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

And other than the heel pocket the boots fit fine? I find some people are wearing boots 1/2 size too small.

@rhensley05 Месяц назад

I’m not sure if sole offers this as well but sheepfeet can be purchased with an HSA.

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

I don’t think they do.

@damienm3597 Месяц назад

How do the sheep feet compare to your custom orthotics ?

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

I prefer these to my customs. Similar process and cushion is better.

@swamibr0 Месяц назад

The answer is yes. What else gets talked about for 29min?

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

🤷

@swamibr0 Месяц назад

@@MindfulHunter don’t get me wrong. I love your reviews, sincerely. I’ve just been running sheer feet for 3 years and IMO they’re a total game changer. My comment may have seemed critical but in my brain it wasn’t 👍

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

@@swamibr0 hahahah. Okay re-reading it yeah I can see that. Thanks man!

@connorreid9156 Месяц назад

I’ve purchased two pairs of sheep feet and they didn’t compare to the fit of the local custom orthotics. Sheep feet didn’t do a good job and molding the plastic piece to fit the arch.

@MindfulHunter Месяц назад

Good to know.
