Sole vs Powerstep Insoles or Orthotics

We often get asked which is better or better for “them”, Sole or Powerstep.
We say they are both great… just different.
Here is my take on it.
We sell both but only because they seem to be a great product.
We also do Custom orthotics as well.
Often an OTC (over the counter) insert has too much or not enough correction for some and they simply need something built special for them. Otherwise…. If your therapist or Doctor says you should try arch supports - these are great choices.

Covered by insurance, ha, right... Kaiser says no

Two other things worth mentioning: Sole are wear and heat moldable (my feet have different arch heights so having the exact same insole would not be ideal), they also come in all sizes which is nice since you typically don't need to cut them and I assume this also places the arch support in the exact proper place this way. Insoles that need to be cut are for several shoe sizes, for example Large would be for size 9-12. So the arch support portion for both a size 9 and 12 is in the exact same position which I don't think is correct. What about Powerstep?
