I skated vulcanized shoes for a few months and my feet completely stopped talking to me, they couldn't take the abuse any longer. So I bought a pair of Reynolds footbeds and I happy to report that my feet and I are back on speaking terms. So now, whenever I get a new pair of shoes I toss the included footbeds in the garbage and throw these babies in. I can usually rock the same pair of footbeds through 2-3 pair of shoes before the cushioning starts breaking down, then I gotta go grab another pair. If you take care of your feet, your feet will take care of you.
