It's a shame Adidas never put cloth over that rubber adiprene insole. Admittedly, the tech and function were top shelf, but they ruined it by having it be rubber and no sockliner material. A nightmare just feelingthet rubber slide your socks around.
Fucking absolute idiots at Adidas to greenlight that insole without cloth on it. I've held that frustration for years. I wanted to skate both Suciu models because they were some of the best looking Adidas models EVER. I tried ultracush, State, STI (etnies), double insoling and it never quite got it right, sadly. Forgive me for rambling, this is a Vans thread and I'm digressing
I can't skate Vans vulcs anymore, but I gotta say, their ultra/pop cush work well in other cupsoles that have removable insoles. Seems like that's where the insole works best compared to their own vulcs. Example, Zahba could have benefited from a drop-in pop cush insole. Even if it was slightly thinner than their vulc version.
@WideFeet my 2 cents would be to try State insoles (dense and thick but not Popcush thick) or Etnies STI insoles and add a thinner (think stock NB 440 insole) insole on top to give support and get fit dialed. I've done that to make shoes more supportive, yet comfortable enough to wear/skate
