The Superfeet ME3D are a really great value for someone looking for an insert that is more custom than an off-the-shelf insole but not as expensive as a full custom orthotic. The ordering process is simple and they come in two cushioning options.

Superfeet Superfeet ME3D Insoles Review

I was offered the chance to test the Superfeet ME3D Insoles and jumped at the opportunity!  I have long been a user of inserts and insoles in my running and soccer shoes to help with low foot arches.  Without proper support in my shoes, I develop pain and tightness in my plantar fasciitis.    I recently completed a full testing review of the Kila Running Insoles, so it was interesting comparing the Superfeet ME3D Insoles to the Kila Running Insoles.  You can find the full review of the Kila Running Insoles here https://www.weeviews.com/reviews/4574/kila-custom-insoles-for-running. My go to shoe insert for many years was the Superfeet Blue Insole so I did have familiarity with Superfeet products going into the testing of the ME3D Insoles.
 
 The process to order the ME3D Insoles was very simple.   I would recommend ordering using a smart phone rather than the website on a computer.  If ordering from a computer, you will be asked to scan a code with your phone to start the scanning process so save yourself a step and just complete the entire ordering process using a phone.  The scanning process is simple and easy using the camera on your phone.   To scan your feet, place your phone against a wall and begin taking an image of the inside portion of your bare foot.  The Superfeet scanning platform will provide easy to follow directions to assist where to place your feet and when to switch feet.  Once your feet are scanned the Superfeet ordering platform asks a series of questions such as cushioning level, gender, and shoe size.  From there the normal product ordering information along with shipping and payment options are completed just like any other online purchase.  Once the order is placed an immediate confirmation is sent to your email.  I did receive multiple emails regarding the status of the order process, which was very nice from a customer service standpoint.  
 
 The order shipped fairly quickly for a custom product.   I had the Superfeet ME3D insoles in less than two weeks.  The product packaging was impressive.  The outer shipping box was small and Superfeet branded so I knew exactly what the package was.  The inner box was nicely styled with the Superfeet ME3D branding on it and included my name which was impressive.   My initial reaction to removing the insoles from the box was that I really liked the colors and style.  The materials felt very high quality and the insoles looked like they were very well constructed.  I was a little concerned about how hard the plastic arch support material was.  I was fearing that it would be too much support and feel very hard and uncomfortable while running.   In my experience of trying many other insoles and insert products I have found that for my foot too much support hurts my feet just as much as too little.   I was a little worried about how the ME3D insoles would feel but I was keeping an open mind and trusting the technology behind the product.  I did find that I was impressed with the foam material and design of the rest of the insole.  I quickly found that the ME3D insoles were not going to fit in my training shoes which are the Nike Vomero Plus.  The instructions do state that trimming of the insoles might be required.  Trimming the ME3D Insoles is easy by tracing around your running shoe's factory included insoles as a pattern.  Once trimmed the ME3D Insoles fit easily into my running shoes and I was ready for the test running to begin.
 
 Immediately my concerns that the 3d printed plastic support area of the insoles was going to be too high and hard for my foot where gone.  The ME3D Insoles felt very comfortable and natural in my shoes.  I like to say that the best insoles are the ones that you don't realize you are wearing and this was true in the case of the ME3D Insoles.  I found the foam material to provide better cushioning than the original factory supplied insoles.  One thing that really surprised me about the ME3D Insoles was the fit around the heel.  The ME3D Insoles have a unique bowl shape around the heel that helps lock it into place providing a very comfortable and supportive feel.  I would not describe the ME3D Insoles as extremely light, but they are not bulky and not heavy either.  Maybe the appropriate weight description is light to average.  After the first run I was impressed with the feel and quality of the ME3D Insoles but the real test would be how they would feel and hold up over multiple weeks and miles of running.
 
 My testing cycle included over 75 miles in 4 weeks of mostly 5-8 mile runs at an 8:00 - 9:00 minute mile pace on paved bike trails along with 3 longer runs of 10 - 13 miles at a 9:00 minute mile pace.  After all of my testing miles I am happy to report that I found the ME3D Insoles to be really impressive.   From the first run to my ongoing use of the ME3D insoles I have found them to provide great cushioning with the right amount of support for my feet.  They added a little bit of responsiveness to my Nike Vomero Plus running shoes that I use for training and provided far better support and cushioning than the original factory included insoles.  One thing I am extremely impressed with is the durability of the ME3D Insoles.  Inspection of the ME3D Insoles after 75 miles shows not a single compression mark from my forefoot and midfoot strikes.  The foam in the forefoot and midfoot look as good as the day I put the ME3D Insoles into my running shoes.  The Superfeet ME3D Insoles are really built to last.
 
 This review would not be complete without discussing the cost and value of the Superfeet ME3D Insoles.  The ME3D Insoles price out at $109.99 - $139.99 depending on the cushioning level chosen.  I personally went with the standard cushioning because the Nike Vomero Plus running shoes already have a substantial amount of foam cushioning and I didn't feel like extra cushioning was needed.   Either cushioning option chosen seems like a great value for a custom 3d printed insole.  With many off the shelf insoles already costing $100.00 and full custom orthotics costing $250.00 - $500.00 the Superfeet ME3D Insoles are priced very well providing excellent value particularly with the durability that the product provides.   I see the ME3D Insoles outlasting several pairs of running shoes and being a great investment for runners of all kinds.
 
 My overall opinion on the ME3D Insoles is that Superfeet really came up with a great product at a great price point for a custom insole.   For the cost of many off-the-shelf insoles Superfeet found a way to provide a custom product at a similar price point while making the scanning and ordering process simple and user friendly.  I look forward to running many more miles in the ME3D Insoles.  I would recommend the ME3D Insoles to any runner who has struggled to find the correct fit in an off-the-shelf insole that is looking for lasting comfort and support and a fair price.

The packaging for the Superfeet ME3D Insoles is impressive.  From the Superfeet branded small outer box to the inner product box that is customized with the purchaser's name.

Scanning Your Feet

The scanning process is simple with no apps to download.  You use the camera on your smart phone.  The process is simple with easy-to-follow instructions including voice prompts help to properly align your feet.  I do find it interesting that only the inside of the foot is scanned and not the entire foot.  I would think a true fully custom orthotic insole would require more images or scans than just the inside of the foot.  I can't argue with the results of the process and how well the ME3D Insoles seem to fit my feet.  To call the ME3D Insoles fully custom might be a little bit of a stretch but the result is a high quality, durable, and proper fitting insole, with a very fair price point.

The ME3D Insoles Might Require Trimmimg

Use your factory supplied original running shoe insoles as a pattern for the ME3D Insoles.
Superfeet Superfeet ME3D Insoles Review
Trace around the original factory supplied running shoes insoles onto the ME3D Insoles and trim with sharp scissors.

The ME3D Insoles may require some trimming.  This might be my least favorite thing about the ME3D Insoles.  For some people the ME3D Insoles might be ready to use right out of the box.  I would prefer this to be the case for everyone using them.  With the scans and required information that you provide I would prefer that the customizing is taken to the next level and the ME3D Insoles would be shipped already trimmed and ready to wear.  I recently tested another company's full custom 3d printed running orthotics and part of the required information when ordering included the make and model of your running shoes so that the insoles could be trimmed to fit the specific running shoes.  I don't know if at the current price point that Superfeet needs to go that far, but maybe they could do a little more to reduce the need for trimming.

Kila Running Insoles Vs SuperFeet ME3D

Since I recently tested the Kila Running Insoles which are another 3d printed custom orthotic process I thought I would provide a comparison with the SuperFeet ME3D Insoles that you can see in the image.

So which 3D printed insole is better?  I think that is a tough question to answer.  Ultimately it depends on what you are looking for in a 3D printed insole.  I think the Kila Running Insoles might provide better performance and have better customization but the expense and long term durability might be concerns.  The Superfeet ME3D has less customization and the insoles need to be trimmed, but the price is considerably less and the insoles appear to be more durable.
