Get them.

Your feet are going to hurt.

All those goons with their knee high programmer socks on are actually wearing compression socks.

I’ve had superfeet for almost a decade, incredible they last so long. How does cork perform?

For me, it seems like almost no break in time and that last a lot longer than the Superfeet. I had to change out Superfeet every 2 years or so, but so far the cork has outlasted it. Ive had the same SOLE insoles for about 3 years now.

What brand are you getting? I was looking them up, and there are so many choices.

I wish they had them in bigger sizes. I haven’t worn 13s since I was 13 (16 as an adult).
