Customer service was good about getting back to me but, had a hard time to get a full refund when I was tricked to get an extra pair, at the end of the transaction. Now, I have 4 pairs and I haven’t gotten any relief from plantar fasciitis, using the product for over a month now… frustrating

Hi Bridget,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience - we genuinely appreciate it, and we're glad our customer service team was responsive in getting back to you.
We're also truly sorry to hear about the frustration you experienced at checkout. The last thing we want is for anyone to feel overwhelmed or pressured when they're just trying to complete a purchase. Our intention with any extra offers is simply to make sure you don't miss any promotions available to you but we completely understand that too many pop-ups or add-ons can feel pushy, and that's not the experience we want to create.
As for the plantar fasciitis relief - please don't give up just yet! We want you to feel the difference, and we're confident we can get you there. A couple of things that really help: first, make sure you're removing the factory insoles from your shoes before putting ours in - layering them can actually work against the support they're designed to provide. Second, our insoles do have a short break-in period, so we recommend starting with a few hours a day and building up gradually. Many of our customers start noticing a real difference once they've fully adjusted.
You are not alone in this, and we are here for you every step of the way. Our support team is available 24 hours a day, every day, whether you need help with your refund, your order, or getting the best results from the product. If you've already reached out and haven't heard back, please check your spam folder as our reply may have ended up there. If not, reach out to us again at [email protected] and we will make sure you are fully taken care of!

constant up sell 😔
While I love the product, I do not like the constant up sell for more products as I checked out!
EDITED!!!
5 stars for the product! The xstance inserts fit my new NB running shoes perfectly and although I no longer run this helps with cushioning & stabilization for my problem feet issues (plantar fasciitis & support for arches etc)

Hi there,
We're so glad to hear you love our product, and that truly means a lot to us!
On a different note, we're sorry you felt that way during the checkout process. The last thing we want is for anyone to feel overwhelmed or frustrated when they're simply trying to complete a purchase. Our intention with any additional offers is to make sure you don't miss something that could genuinely support your comfort and wellness journey, often at a much lower price than purchasing separately. We know that finding products that work can take time and money, so we try to surface relevant add-ons at checkout as a convenience, not a pressure. That said, we completely understand that too many pop-ups or add-ons can feel pushy, and that is not the experience we want to create for anyone.
Your feedback is incredibly valuable, and we'll be passing it along to our team to take a closer look at how we can make the process smoother and more respectful of your time.
Thank you for taking the time to share this with us. It's how we get better!

Cheap, flat slippers
I purchased the slippers and was very disappointed.
The product is a cheap, lightweight, piece of plastic which has no arch support whatsoever.
They are not worth anything close to the cost.
Unfortunate because the insoles are a good product.

Hi there,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and we’re genuinely sorry to hear that the slippers didn’t meet your expectations. We designed these slippers with tired feet in mind - the thick yet extremely lightweight EVA foam is meant to absorb shock and keep your feet warm on cold floors during winter. The anti-slip soles and raised edges are there to help stabilize every step and keep you safe, even on wet surfaces, while the breathable materials help prevent dampness, stickiness, and odor in humid weather.
That said, we completely understand that everyone’s feet and comfort preferences are different, and it sounds like these slippers weren’t the right fit for you. We truly appreciate your honest feedback, and we’ll use it to continue improving our products.
On the other hand, we’re glad to hear that you’ve had a positive experience with our insoles - that means a lot to us! To help, we’d be happy to explore exchanging your slippers for a pair of insoles that may better suit your needs. Just reach out to us at [email protected] and we’ll make it as easy as possible.
Thank you again for your feedback and for helping us keep improving. Your experience truly matters to us, and we hope we can turn it into a positive one for you.

Shipping issues
The first response was basically that it was my problem to deal with the shipper. It took a long time to resolve . I had been waiting for weeks to receive product, weeks for the resolution to lost product, and now it will be weeks until I receive a replacement. Even if the insoles work, it is unlikely I will order anything from you again.

Your delivery service needs to be…
Your delivery service needs to be replaced. Uni is absolutely terrible. They employ people who do not know how to find obvious delivery locations.

Sadly disappointed
The insoles are ok, there has not been any real change from any other ones I’ve tried. The heel guards are a complete joke, I was excited to have something to help while wearing my slippers around the house. They don’t support, they slip off and move around too east. Sadly very disappointing in both

We're sorry to hear about your experience, John.
On the other hand, thankful for the feedback you provided so we could further improve our products and services. One of our customer service agents has already reached out to you. We stand by our product and offer a 90-day money-back guarantee on all of our products. If for any reason you don’t like the product (size, fit, color, it’s raining outside), you have 90 days after receiving it to contact us.
We look forward to finding a suitable resolution with you.
All the best,
XSTANCE Support

Very firm
I've order tons of different orthotics through the years and the video I watched on these sounded very positive. To tell you the truth, I'm still trying to get use to them. They are more firm than I'm used to wearing, but I do love that they are keeping the pressure off of my toe area which is one of my problem areas. I'm trying to wear them longer each day to get use to them. Pam G.

Hi Pam,
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that XSTANCE insoles are helping relieve pressure on your toe area—that's great to hear.
We completely understand that getting used to a firmer insole can take some time, and we recommend breaking them in gradually by wearing them for 2-hour increments to give your feet time to adjust. As you continue to wear them, you'll likely start to feel even more relief as they mold to your feet.
Thanks again for giving them a try, and we look forward to hearing more about your experience as you continue to use them!
