Better arch support...

I ride Spesh carbon road shoes which I love with Spesh red insoles that came with the shoes. I believe I am pronating a bit because the natural arch of my feet are a bit higher than the contour of the red insoles which are Specialized least amount of arch. They sell the shoes this way because a low arch insole doesn't bug guys with flattish feet. Most shoe makers do the same thing.

Here are Spesh insole options:

• + Red = minimal contours (this is our stock body geometry footbed with longitudinal arch & metatarsal button support. Same footbed in all our performance shoes. Same footbed we have used since 2000) = for people with flat foot

• ++ Blue = moderate (slightly higher longitudinal arch & metatarsal button) = for people with flat to standard arch

• +++ Green = significant support = for people with standard or high arches


So I want to try either the green or blue insoles. Anybody make the switch and glad they did? Where is the best place to order them on line?...or only available thru lbs or maybe thru Specialized direct? My shoe is size is 45...pretty common.

Thanks for any advice.
