Decided to spend more money than usual on insoles as doing 4 marathons in September. Bit more comfort.
Bought these and just can't use them. I have slightly wider fit shoe/feet. The arch area on these is quite narrow so find that I'm just standing on the arch rather than snuggly settled in.
These are made for narrow feet and I'm rather disappointed. I've used many other well known insoles in past and can honestly say "never had this problem" and saved myself half the money.
Won't buy again, sorry.

Amazing soles I’ve had plantar fasciitis for years but the pain is nowhere near as painful with these on my feet
Mark S.
Up until buy some Enertor insoles I was picking up various leg injuries that were related to my running gait. I am a older runner and needed to try everything to avoid injuries!
Since using the insoles my running as come in leaps and bounds and running injury free !
Love them and cannot recommend highly enough
Thank You
Rob H.
The reviews were positive and so I took the plunge to purchase. The insoles are well made and for well. The one downside for me is the fabric used on the surface, it's a bit slippy and your feet feel as though there's too much movement. It would be nice to see a different fabric used. In use you can really feel the "bounce" the insoles give you. Worth buying.
Steve H.
I’m a sceptical person I’ve tried other insults of a similar price but these insoles are far superior helping with the pains in my feet tremendously highly recommended
roger h.
Am injured at the moment ,so have been using them walking. They do seem very comfortable. Can't wait to try them running again....one day, I hope
Matthew S.
First, the not-so-great things. They add a fair amount of height to your insole, so your heel may not sit in the heel counter of your shoe properly. They do not have a cup shape in the heel so they can make your running shoes feel unstable if you have any amount of heel movement in your natural running gait. The underside of the heel is completely flat which does not work well in most athletic shoes that have a natural cup shape to the heel and footbed. I used a sanding tool to wear away the heel edges into a cup shape.
Now, the great things... They feel different the first time you step into them, but that's because you're about to experience a treat in shock absorption. There is still good ground contact feel, but the jarring is somehow removed from that sensation (excellent for runners). The forefoot is wide enough that you don't feel a gap between the insole and the shoe like you do on some insoles that start out too narrow. They have a nice amount of arch support that seems to fill in where my shoes come up just short... Although this could be bad if your shoes are perfect on arch support already.
With that, there is currently only one insole I would buy over these for running unless you need orthotics (sorry, can't name them or the review would be blocked). These will live in my daily trainers since those have enough stability to compensate for what I lose with these insoles.

Having suffered a year of excruciating plantar fasciitis Pain that has reduced me from ultra running to no running at all I felt I’d never be able to run again. These inner soles have been so helpful in enabling gentle jogging; started with the basic ones after my first steroid injection and they made a noticeable difference to the heel pain that prevented even walking. I’m now waiting for shockwave therapy and have started using the running inner soles which have been amazing. I can jog gently for 40 minutes with minimal discomfort. I’ve put them in regular asics road shoes - the 7-8 fit well into my women’s size 8 shoes. They won’t cure the injury but are a huge help in allowing me to run by significantly reducing pain. Highly recommend.

Very comfortable

Having suffered from various knee injuries in the past due to wear/tear and cartilage degeneration i have struggled to find any insoles that would enable me to continue running.
Thought i would try the Enertor PX1 running shoes to see if they would offer any help and i wasn't disappointed.
The insole is only thin but when inside your running shoe it feels excellent and so comfy. When running on pavements it feels like there is hardly any impact on your ankles/knees or hips.
I would give this product 10/10 and recommend to any runners old or new.
Jonathan L.
Excellent insoles ,worn them for the last 2/3 years . good fit inside the running shoe without taking up toe room etc.Quality product and as the phrase goes "it does what it says on the tin!"
Lynette L.
I have plantar plate issues which can make running a very painful experience. I was rather sceptical about these insoles but, having been using them for a couple of months now, they have proved otherwise. These insoles have really made a difference and I can run again, relatively pain free. Definitely be using these all the time from now on.
Anthony J.
I had nearly given up on running due to calf pain. It seemed no matter how much stretching or foam rolling I did in between runs, that my run would still be plagued by tension in the calf followed by a day where I could barely walk.
Since getting the in soles I get barely any pain in my calf and no pain post run. Game changer.
Andrew L.
Really happy with these insoles, comfort and pain free running, brilliant
Tom B.
It's not that I don't like it, it just didn't work for me. I have plantar fasciitis and bought these with the socks in hopes it would help even a bit. I felt minor pain when I started and few hours later I am now struggling to walk. Which is the same as when I was just wearing a tubigrip previously running. Decided to try a run again as I had 3 weeks leaving it and felt yesterday for the first time I had no pain at work and a little pain at night so thought it was better until today. Back to square one for me
martin p.
I have used these insoles for a couple of years now and find them far more comfortable and shock absorbant than the standard shoe insoles.
Elliot D.
Absolutely love these. Have suffered tight calf/achilles and peroneal tendonitis, but noticed a big difference with these insoles. Very comfortable and the new ones are lighter than my original insoles. Definitely worth the money :)
Sarah G.
I must admit I was a bit sceptical about the difference that insoles would make. I used to be a keen runner and, after getting out of the habit, have been plagued with calf strains since starting again. It's been really demoralising as when I get injured, I've needed to take a few weeks off before building up again. I've tried physio, different running shoes and compression sleeves but still suffering injuries after short distances. I read about the insoles and thought I'd give them a go... all I can say is wow! No calf strains and running faster and longer than I have in a long time :-) If you are unsure, give them a go. I've found them to be life-changing!
Paul C.
I had been suffering swelling and pain on the outside of my foot , from excess cycle turbo trainer use.
My sport insoles were very well worn so I replaced them with the enertor runner insoles .
I have been wearing them in my everyday trainers for three weeks as the injury heals.
The insoles are very supportive and seem to get more comfortable the longer you wear them.
Samantha .
I saw these advertised on Facebook and was dubious but after months of alternating lower leg injuries I was willing to give anything a try. I’ve currently used them for 5 runs, the longest so far 7 miles. My feet feel really cushioned and supported. The fit is great and I’ve had no problems with blisters etc. What’s more my pace has improved by at least 30 seconds per mile without me really noticing any extra effort. So I’d say so far so good!
Kevin H.
I'd almost given up on runnjng as I struggled with plantar fascia related pains in both feet every time I ran prior to using the Enertor insoles.
With these in place I've been able to get back out running frequently with no pains at all in my feet the next day. These insoles do exactly what they say they do, they are great!
Daniel B.
I find that Enertor insoles are Comfortable which do help approve Speed whilst I run
Anthony L.
Bought a pair to use in my trainers and extremely happy with them so far!
Michelle K.
I replaced the insoles in my running shoes with these as the original ones felt like they were slicing into the arch of my feet, and it's been a total revelation - they're so comfortable and bouncy and although you can feel the arch structure, it's soft rather than solid and so feels comfortable. I struggle with arch blisters in almost all running shoes but these insoles seem to have cured it! One tiny criticism is that the toe section is narrower than my actual shoes but they don't seem to move and so this hasn't caused problems, I'd have just preferred it to be slightly larger and trim it to size if necessary than be a bit too small.
Steve P.
Complete waste of money ... bought the running ones as I’ve been sufferering with plantar fasciitis... still can’t run .. had them 3/4 weeks and made no difference... Can I get a refund ??
Ian M.
I was getting pain in my left shin with lumps appearing and pain in my lower back right side which was compensation pain caused my my shin issues.
Put enertor running insoles into trainers and no more pain and no more shin and back problems. Thank you!! Fantastic product!!!
Susan N.
I use the 'running' Enertor insoles in both my trail and hill running shoes and have been very pleasantly surprised. I appreciate the additional support for when I hit the hard packed trails however it is not too much that I can't feel the terrain on more technical ground. I have suffered on and off with Plantar Fasciitis over the past few years and I feel using these insoles combined with the additional advice from Enertor has really helped.
Michael L.
I was struggling with tired legs on trail runs due to my old insoles being past the point of no return. I saw the test with the egg and thought I would give them a go. So glad I did. Many comfortable miles later they are great and working well. Highly recommend
Helen C.
Been using these for a little while. Thought it would be good to renew. You certainly feel as though your feet are protected wearing them.
Hamish M.
Very comfortable highly recommended!
Hannah C.
I was a little hesitant buying these, as an experienced runner insoles are not something I’d though was effective. I started with shin splints and suffer with plantar fasciitis and Piriformis syndrome which causes hip pain now and then from running. Since wearing these insoles even the first time I wore them I noticed a massive reduction in pain and discomfort and ran better. I use them for both speed sessions and long runs and they are perfect. cannot recommend them enough!!!!
Michele A.
Hello,
I have tested the new insoles in two outings and for the moment the feeling is really very good: cushioning and protective at the same time. I will update you later. Sincerely
Penelope C.
It's like nothing i've tried before. I'm a runner that suffered from shin splints a couple of times a year. They are annoying and always seem to get me when I'm least enjoying my running and honestly don't need a reason to not run!
These insoles have honestly changed that. It feels as though the shock of impact is taken away. I've had 2 runs in the last few days and both have been pleasurable. Little to no pain from existing shin splints, enabling me to keep going.
Rhodri C.
The amazing insoles is really helping me a lot with my arthritis joint pains!,I'm walking much better with incredible comfort throughout!, each day!.The delivery is quick!,after 2 days this amazing product is straight to my door!.
Sarah M.
Really great performance insoles, have helped my son get his feet moving on the tennis court! He said they felt amazing.
claire w.
I has having trouble with my knee and hamstring whist out running and no matter how much I iced, stretched or rested it didn't seem as though the problem was going away anytime soon.
The advert for these popped up my fb page and I bought them on a whim. Feeling a bit skeptical that they would actually work.
When they arrived I put them in my trainers and thought I would test them by just walking around in them. Straight away I noticed the difference, the knee pain eased dramatically.
The next day I took them out for a short run , which I had done in at least a few weeks. The difference was fantastic. With each run after that the pain has got less and less.
Would definitely recommend to anyto give these a try
Rebecca S.
I tried these to help with my knee when running. Now I can actually run again! I am taking it slow and fairly short distances at the moment though but so far so good! Comfy and have prevented pain so I am pretty happy so far.
Anna H.
I have some of your "old style" insoles which I have used in several different running shoes. They're very supportive but quite heavy and fairly rigid. These new ones are much lighter, seem just as supportive, but they are much softer and, for me at least, they give much more rebound. I have done several good runs with them including one personal best. So you could say that I am very pleased with them!
Andrew M.
What a difference they have made. The comfort and support I now have whilst running Is fantastic, plus my distance times have improved too. A win, win all round. I would definitely recommend every runner to get a pair of Enertor’s.
Rod M.
Lightweight, non intrusive and a great replacement for conventional insoles.
I m 62 now and still enjoy my running - why take risks when there is something like this on the market to protect my moving bits and pieces!
Brandon R.
Amazing I bout some sidas high arch 3s Some time ago I work as a scaffolder and run quite a lot picked up shins splints A little while back and couldn’t shake them The sidas where okay reduced the pain slightly So I thought to try these but they are by far the best insoles on the market I feel next to no pain what so ever at work or running
Susan B.
I wear my new enetor insoles inside a slightly older pair of trainers when I go trail running. I LOVE how supportive, yet springy they feel.
Aija L.
I found it really comfortable. Using them in my running shoes and feel like my step is lighter. Hoped that it would help me with lower back pain, however, I don't think it makes much of a change. But like I said, it is lighter to run.
Gethin D.
These are good. Very soft and comfortable. Would be a 5 but they haven't got the heel cup or the firm arch support of the previous performance insole. An insole made with the PX1 technology with the arch support and heel cup of the previous performance insole would be an absolute winner.
Darrell B.
Often had knee pain especially after long runs. The On trainers went some way to helping but since using them with the Enertor insoles I have had no more knee pains. A great combination.
Nick J.
I bought the insoles to help treat a fairly painful case of plantar. I still feel some pain but the soles have definitely helped me to keep running. I've just ordered another pair for my gym trainers as well.
Caroline S.
After suffering with shin splints for a few months I thought I would try out the insoles. So pleased with them, very comfortable and I’m slowly getting back to running again.
John P.
Quite possibly the most over rated product I've ever spent 30 quid on. I had hoped they would be the answer to my soar feet.but ,and in all honesty, they made things more uncomfortable.
Mark P.
I am now fully converted with 6 pairs. As soon as I buy an new pair of casual shoes or trainers I yank out the flimsy cheap inner sole and put in my Enetors! My knees have are pain free for the first tome in years.
Carol M.
These are very comfortable in my running trainers.
Only had them for 1 week, so hopefully I will start to notice a difference in the next couple of weeks.
James H.
Unfortunately struggling to get good fitment in my Cloudswifts, will persevere. May need some more material trimming on sides
Brendan S.
I suffer from Plantar Fasciitis, since using Enertor insoles this painful problem has
disappeared ,if however i wear running shoes ,boots etc without them it soon reappears
the new running insoles have the same effect and are really comfortable, a really good product.
Regards Brendan Sweeney
howard c.
These insoles have made a noticeable difference straight away. Both my knees and my right hip have pain from arthritis which I can manage ok when I run as long as I dont over do it and do the various exercises a physiotherapist gave me a few years ago. But I always know the pain is there and some days are better than others. I run 30 miles a week usually 5 -6 miles six days out of seven on soft flat ground and do a little bit of gentle interval work. Quite simply at the start of my first run with these insoles there was less pain in the affected joints. It feels to me there is actually less shock coming up through the body, it seems to dissipate sideways rather than upwards. I have been wearing them for a couple of weeks now and the improvement is still noticeable. Excellent product.
Kevin L.
In my opinion these are the best insoles for those of us that suffer from plantar fasciitis.
Ben N.
I’m a neutral forefoot/mid foot runner covering about 45miles per week and have recently started to develop some metatarsalgia in both feet to the point at tempo paces and higher would hurt enough to affect my pace after 5miles. These insoles have completely made that pain disappear and I can see after 3 runs that both feet are actually healing.
It’d be great if these insoles were zero offset but I’m just nit picking.
Helena P.
I have pins in both of my feet due to an accident, I have proper running shoes, so when I placed the enertor foot soles in it was extra cushioning for my feet.
I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants extra support and most importantly to lessen injuries
Jordina W.
Completely changed my running experience. I’m able to run for longer without the foot, knee and lower back pain that used to start at 4km. Very comfortable and easy to use.
Paul H.
Very comfortable addition to the range. Feels like it gives more impact protection than my old Performance insoles but the arch support doesn’t feel as good. Only run 30km so far so maybe too early to say.
Stuart K.
Great product straight from the box, I have these in my racing flats and use in my training kicks- effect insoles.
Janice G.
I love Enetor insoles. My sport means I spend lots of time on my feet and these insoles have provided support and comfort throughout long days. Less impact stress and more comfort.....what's not to love? Thanks Enetor ☺
Alan M.
Very comfortable and effective ... needs a little talc in the shoe before inserting.
Debra M.
After suffering with aching ankles after runs I upgraded my trainers which didn't make much difference. I decided to replace the insoles with these. They are so comfortable to run in and my achey old ankles don't bother me anywhere near how they did. Would definitely recommend these insoles.
Stephen C.
Changed my soles as soon as they arrived and can notice the difference basically straight away.It feels different at first but all good within a couple of hours wearing them, no more pain or discomfort now.
Chris T.
Very prompt delivery and great insole!
JULIE M.
really made a difference to my ankles when running
Craig W.
I have had a few issues with shin splints this year so much so I was out for nearly 2 months so I was looking for something to help cushion the impact and reduce any flair ups on my runs. 90 miles into running with enertor and so far pain free. They take a few runs to get used to them but I wouldn’t be without them now.
Liz E.
Having sustained a catalogue of 'stress fracture' injuries I had resigned myself to never running again, but I decided to give these insoles a go as a last resort. I am so glad that I did! I'm now back running twice a week, up to 4 miles (currently). I can feel the cushioning and buoyancy -like running on air - and much less 'shock' impact! Highly recommended!
William N.
Supportive, cushioning, comfortable and thinner. What else could or should they be!
Karen M.
I have insertion tendinopathy and was advised to try these insoles in my running shoes. So, I have them in my road and trail shoes. It took a few runs to get used to them but now I won’t run without them. My heel is not better but I can now run without too much pain. I use Hoka trainers with a soft heel cup and they fit in perfectly. I definitely recommend them.
Adam B.
I have been suffering from plantar fasciitis and these insoles have made a massive difference
Mrs G.
I bought a pair of these as recommended by my husband & I find they are more comfortable than the original sole also giving new life to an older pair of my favourite running shoes!
Joanna I.
I'm a beginner and when my shins began to ache my friend advised me to buy these insoles. She's an experienced runner so I didn't hesitate and followed her advice. So far my calves are fine. No pain, no aching. I'm relieved. I can run longer and faster :)
ANDREW F.
Saves purchasing a new pair of expensive running shoes.
Thankyou
ANdy G.
Excellent, comfort evident from first use & zero fatigue after wearing them for 12+ hours.
Trevor B.
So far so good only a few miles in. Much lighter then my other Enertor insoles. Only done 10 miles in them so far. Time will tell but feeling good. Used in a pair of On Cloudflows
DEAN P.
Swapped out my D30 Enertors &
loving the new PX1 Enertors. They feel more cushioned & with great returned energy. I have been using Enertors to stop shin splints & fractures which I used to get every year & this is the 1st year I have no fractures so these are obviously doing a great job. I now have 3 pairs & would highly recommend the new PX1 version. Keep up the great work.
Karl R.
Can’t believe how much softer the PX1 feels in comparison to the original or indeed how much energy you feel returning. The only suggestion might be the original ‘shape’ made the foot feel more secure in the shoe.
Gavin S.
These are lightweight and do seem to absorb more impact than alternatives. They are considerably lighter than competitors. Criticisms are that the there is very little heel cup, so the heel slides around when trail running and the arch support is quite marked. Selection of sizes is limited which may mean needing to cut the insole down. Otherwise a good product.
Adrian F.
Not what I expected. I have had more complex insoles than this for the same or less money and it seems that these are neither more or less effective. I have shin splints so will see if they can do what they say on their tin when I have recovered.
