Comfortable hockey insoles.

Title says it all. I don't care if the comfort has a detrimental impact on performance; I'm still interested.

I love my Sole insoles, they're heat moldable and don't raise your heel as much as some others (like Superfeet).  I use Sole Active thin, but they also have a medium version with a touch more padding but honestly the thin have more than enough padding imo.

The Genetix insoles that come with some True skates are squishy and would be nice if you’re a ref or coach in your skates all day. As a player I feel they take up too much volume and deaden the feel of the skates

Try the Aetrex Bauer

Interested in trying these. Did you buy them according to your shoe size? I assume that would affect arch placement.

Shoe size, then trim to fit, this way the dimensions are best for your foot.  I'm a 9.5 shoe, 7.5 tapered skate, and went with a size 9 insole which works well for me.  I actually picked up a pair of Aetrex Bauer ones from SLS but haven't tried them yet, I don't need them but am always curious to try different things and the price was right (just over $20 shipped).

I'm actually hunting for some taller insoles but have never tried Superfeet. How do they feel to skate on compared to regular insoles?

I like my insoles medium firm--a little squish but not as much as True/MLX insoles. I've found Nike's old insoles from the late 90's - early 00's with a couple extra layers of foam underneath help me a lot in most skates where I'm so low volume my foot either sloshes around inside or I have to lace so tight I can't move my ankles enough.

Superfeet are great if they solve a specific problem for you. They very much change the way the skate fits so that may be good, or it may be bad. You can see the supports in the back and the entire underside is rigid. I do think they have models without that, but the skate-specific models look like this.

Where the plate is is exactly where I'm struggling with my feet being too low volume for my skates. I've tried adding the felt part of a Catalyst 7 tongue I dissected. That's hit or miss depending on the skate. The Nike insoles have extra layers of firm foam there. That really helps in a lot of skates, but they're annoyingly lacking in coverage under the forefoot and too thin in the back, giving a void feeling right under the heel if they aren't in exactly the right place. The more I look into it, the more it seems like this might be the best bet for my issues.

I know there's a dearth of info and feedback on them in various topics in here. I'm just a little too scatterbrained to take on that read right now. Will probably do it late one night soon.
