Bought these for a first date and she actually commented on how nice they looked. They add almost 2 inches but feel totally natural to walk in. Nobody would ever guess these are height-increasing shoes - they just look like stylish sneakers.

Got my insoles yesterday and wore them to work today for the first time. The boost in confidence was immediate - I actually volunteered to lead a presentation which I would have avoided before. My coworker commented that I seemed different but couldn't pinpoint why, which is exactly what I wanted. The height increase feels natural, not like I'm walking on stilts or platforms.
I emailed support about sizing and got a reply super fast. They helped me out without giving me the runaround and I had the pair at my door two days later. They came in clean packaging, no gimmicks, and they actually feel like something I’ll keep using. Big difference from random stuff I used to find on Amazon.
I’m 5'6 and always felt overlooked in group settings. I used to dread events where I knew I’d be surrounded by taller guys. Ever since I started using highpads, I feel like I can actually show up with presence. They’re comfortable, fit perfectly, and most importantly, they’ve helped me mentally. It’s not just about height, it’s about how you show up.

Game changer for dating
Used to dread first dates because of height comments, but these insoles changed everything.

Family perception shifted
Family gatherings used to include the inevitable height comments and "still waiting for that growth spurt" jokes well into my thirties. The first holiday after I started using BRANDONE products, not a single height comment was made - instead, relatives commented on how confident and successful I seemed. My younger cousins who used to barely acknowledge me now actually seek out my advice and company, a subtle but meaningful shift in family dynamics. Photos from before and after show a dramatic difference not just in physical height but in how centrally I'm positioned in group shots rather than being relegated to the edges. The psychological relief of not dreading family gatherings has improved my relationships with relatives I previously avoided due to height-related comments.

Social circle status change
My friends have noticed I'm suddenly more outgoing at our regular hangouts but have no idea it's because I'm no longer the noticeably shortest guy in our group. The psychological difference of being eye-level in conversations has completely changed my social confidence.

Simple and effective
Wore them to a date and it honestly made me feel like I had my edge back. Girl didn’t notice, but I felt more secure and present.

Wore them on a date, felt amazing
Fits all my shoes — AF1s, boots, dress shoes — and doesn’t slip or hurt after long wear. Actually really solid product.

Made a big difference at work
Was hesitant to buy at first because I’ve tried other lift insoles that were super uncomfortable or looked weird in shoes. Highpads felt way more natural. I put them in my boots and wore them to a work event. Felt like I was on even ground for once. Noticed people treated me slightly differently, like I just stood out more or something. Will definitely get another pair.

Better posture and presence
Bought these after seeing a Reddit thread and honestly didn’t think they’d be this good. I’ve worn them walking around the city for hours and my feet didn’t hurt once. They don’t flatten or feel cheap like some of the other ones I tried before. Also the brand just feels trustworthy, like they know the problem they’re solving.
