I use Superfeet Greens, they work good for me.

I use the factory footbeds as a pattern to cut a piece of 1/8 foam and put that in before the Superfeet to take up some of the volume in my boots.

I haven't yet tried the other brands mentioned.

I've been using Montrail's Enduro Soles since they came out (maybe three to four years ago?). They're in my running shoes and hiking shoes and boots. It's initially not cheap to put them in multiple pairs of shoes to start, but they last a long while and I've had a lot of luck with them.

They're thermo-moldable, so you heat them in your oven for a few minutes before the first use.

Bill keeps telling me to try the ever-popular Superfeet, but since the Montrail footbeds work for me, I'm not going to fix what isn't broken.
