Does any one know of any really good insulated insoles for mtb shoes? They need to be on the thin side similar to the ones being replaced. I have already tried the aluminum foil trick!

I got some cheapo foil backed ones from Clas Ohlsen, definitely made a difference in reducing the feeling of cold from the ground or cleats. They were a little thicker than standard shimano soles but I use then in my MW80’s so had plenty of room. Definitely a good upgrade, even thought they are winter shoes, as the sole is the least insulated part of those shoes.

I wanted some 3M Thinsulate insoles but I can only find them for sale in the UK direct from 3M and they’re out of stock in my size so I’ve just ordered a pair of Woly Astro Therm insoles from ebay for £5ish as they sounded pretty decent based on the Amazon reviews. I’ll post up if they’re any good once they arrive.

Do insulated insoles do anything?

Hammy – for £90 I think I’ll stick to my £6.50 for 4 pairs of merino socks and some foil if need be! 😯

Apparently so…

…not sure how effective they’ll be when they’ve been wet for hours but worth a try.

Yep, these work. Not like putting coals in your boots but they do help make crappy summer shoes bearable.
