I'm looking for insoles that are stiff from heel to toe. Anyone have suggestions? I've seen a few steel plates and that carbon fiber spring plate from a quick search. It's hard to really visualize how stiff those are though. I'm looking for something that's barely pliable.
I've picked up shoes in Academy Sports that were stiff as a board. They were usually some type of cross training shoe. Whether you could run in them is another matter.
Also, some trail shoes are really stiff. I have two different models of Saucony trail shoes and they barely bend. You just need to go somewhere with a wide selection of shoes and start bending them.
