Trying to find out what insole fits these boots the best. The search function didn't yield many results; L&S, superfeet, etc. Hoping to get input from guys running the Lowa Tibet GTX specifically. What aftermarket insole do you run? Please specify if you have a high/low arch. Thanks

I run superfeet green in my lowa tibets. They don't have much cushioning but made them fit me better than the stock insoles. I would say I have average arches.

I ran sofsole med arched for awhile. Now I run sofsole cushion. It helps keep my feet from getting sore. I used to think I needed more arch support, but I realized it was the stiffer boots I needed.

I tried Super Feet green and orange, then L&S insole, they were not as good as the SOLE, heat moldable insoles. That is what I use now, in my Lowas and now in my new Scarpa's. For me the heat moldable works best.

prone to fasciitis - used superfeet green for years (good product) - year before last I was having a bout and purchased "Heel That Pain" insoles, "I" have been using them in everything down to athletic shoes ever since (no fasciitis since)

I run the Spenco soft insoles in my Tibets. I would say I have average arches.
One thing I have wandered about running the hard shell superfeet type insoles is that I would think the hard plastic would impinge into the gore tex membrane over time and cause leaks???

I have a medium arch and run L&S footbeds in my Tibets. Don't really have any thing to compare them to other than the factory insoles but I really like them. GF runs L&S in her women's Tibets also and has commented on how much she likes them.

I've been very pleased with the orange Superfeet in my Lowa Tibet Hi, lots of different options out there obviously.

I'm running Lowa Z-6S GTX boots (more a duty/hiker boot than a hunting boot, but they work well for me). Not sure how the fit of that boot compares to the Tibet, but I found I like the Superfeet Guide insoles. I have an average arch, I think. Good luck with your search.

Tried the superfeet orange and didn't like them. They had a couple pressure points that didn't feel right. Going to try sofsole high arch next

I have a Lathrop & Sons insole in my Tibets. I have medium arches and these insoles work really well for me. I tried the Superfeet Green as well. They are ok, but the arch is a little high for my liking.

I wear Lowa's exclusively, Tibet, GTX, Renegade, Ranger - Green Superfeet are great and what I wore for quite a few years then I discovered "Heel that Pain" insoles and I switched to try them, now have them in every pair of shoes or boots I own
(note: I'm nowhere even near the mileage that a lot of guys (and gals) log but I do find myself beating boots up in different situations including workplace)

For Heel that Pain are you guys using the gel heel seat or the full length heel seat?
