A little off the Calfee topic I imagine, but I thought it was of interest to bikees, who presumably pay attention to their "fees-se-lach" (feet), as my gramma used to call them.
I recently replaced the Peterson footbeds in my cycling shoes with the black Superfeet ones. I like the Superfeel much much better. The Superfeet are thinner, so that may explain some of this. But they also seem to have the hils and valleys in the right place for my feet. So if anyone has wondered if there is a difference, for me there has been. I think these inserts are all around the same price, too.
If this was a ski site, like Telemarktips, we'd likely talk about high and low volume feet or something. Oddly, I'm not sure that's what is making the difference. I think I have a low volume foot, but the thinner footbed...which, being thiiner, presumably takes up less room, not more.. right??...seems to be better.
Also, has anyone else been using the Bridgedale Ski Ultralite sock with their cycling shoes? This is probably an eccentricity on my part, since I have to roll em down around my ankles in warm weather, and that's a pain. But I love em. I started using em in the winter, and now I can't bear to go to my summer socks.
