You ripped out the insoles without any replacement insoles?

no worries. just make sure you get rid of all the gluey bits and
buy some crosstrainer spenco insoles or any other product that
gives ya extra support and cushioning .

Heck, I got a cheap pair at walmart. Although some are better than others, I don't think any specific kind will make a big difference. Just get some that are for athletic use that obsorb shock. But make sure you replace them! I know someone (not to mention names :lol: ) that didn't replace theirs and they got some pretty bad problems.

EDIT: forgot some words, lol

Don't buy at Footlocker. They sell for about $20+ for a pair of Spencos Crosstrainers.

Get them here:
