No just insoles in general, if used you are compressing them overtime so they will not be as good as they are from day one. Certainly yes some will hold up better but I have yet to have an insole that doesn't wear out. Certainly a very stiff insole and a very lightweight person will take a lot more time but it will happen.

My insoles generally start smelling bad from the first week I cannot win.
