This is the biggest scam I've seen. The product is junk. I already have arthritis and back problems, and these orthotics made the pain ten times worse. They are as stiff as a rock, and no, they do not break in after using them for a while. The worst part is that during the so-called custom mold process for the fittings, they send you generic emails like: 'We are analyzing your orthotic needs,' or 'We are making your orthotic, blah blah blah.' And before you even get your pair of orthotics, they send you an email every day asking you to buy at least one more pair. It's like going to a restaurant where the waiter wants you to order dessert before your appetizers even arrive. Now, don't even think about getting a full refund. I requested a full refund and explained to customer service the problems these so-called custom orthotics caused me. They were only willing to refund 70%, with the remaining 30% as a fee to ship my fittings back. I tried to get an answer from Ana on why they would only give me 70% back when they want the product returned—a product that, I remind you, is supposed to be custom-fit to my feet. Instead of providing an explanation, they just sent me an email asking me to rate them. This leads me to believe that these so-called custom orthotics are just generic ones produced in bulk in some Chinese factory. DO NOT BUY FROM THESE SCAMMERS!

We're sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with your experience and that your orthotics did not provide the comfort you were hoping for. While custom orthotics can require an adjustment period and may not work the same way for every individual, we understand how frustrating it is when they do not meet your expectations. We also apologize if our communications or refund process left you feeling unheard. Regarding refunds, our return policy includes a partial refund after the return of the orthotics and associated materials. We understand that you may disagree with this policy, but it is applied consistently to all eligible returns. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us identify areas where we can improve both our products and customer experience.

These insoles have changed my life! I tried so many other brands and was still in so much pain. Using these insoles in all of my shoes have made my feet pain free! If your feet hurt all the time, you need to try UpStep insoles. You won’t regret it!
