Saphir Leather on Charcoal Insoles – Odour-Absorbing Leather Insoles (Sizes 36–46) — luxury leather insoles that keep feet fresh all day
If your feet get hot quickly and your favourite shoes start to smell before the day is out, I understand the frustration completely. It is such a shame to retire a beautiful pair of shoes for something you can easily put right. The Saphir Leather on Charcoal insoles are my go-to answer, and once you have tried a pair you will see why they have become a quiet bestseller here at Shoespecialist.
These insoles are made from perforated latex foam with a layer of activated charcoal, finished with a top layer of high-quality sheep leather. The latex foam gives you gentle, springy cushioning underfoot, while the activated charcoal draws in moisture and neutralises odour where it starts. The soft leather feels lovely against the foot and helps regulate temperature, so your feet stay cool and dry.
Saphir is a name I trust for shoe care, and this insole lives up to it. Available in sizes 36 to 46, it slips neatly into everyday shoes, smart shoes and trainers alike. Whether you want a fresh replacement for a worn insole or a little extra comfort, this is a simple upgrade that makes a real difference.
Why choose the Saphir Leather on Charcoal insoles?
- Activated charcoal keeps odour at bay — The charcoal layer absorbs sweat and neutralises the bacteria that cause unpleasant smells, so your shoes stay fresher for longer.
- Soft sheep leather top layer — Genuine leather feels wonderful underfoot, breathes naturally and helps wick away moisture through the day.
- Perforated latex foam cushioning — The springy foam adds a comfortable layer of support and the perforations let air circulate to keep feet cool.
- Fits a wide range of shoes — Slim enough for smart shoes yet cushioning enough for daily wear, these insoles suit trainers, brogues, boots and everything in between.
- Trusted Saphir quality — Saphir is renowned for premium shoe care, and this luxury insole is finished to the same high standard.
- Free UK delivery from £50 — Order a couple of pairs to rotate between your shoes and enjoy free delivery on orders over £50, with same-day dispatch before 5pm.
How to use the Saphir Leather on Charcoal insoles
- Remove the existing insole from your shoe if it lifts out easily.
- Choose your normal shoe size (36 to 46) and pop the Saphir insole in with the leather side facing up.
- If you need a closer fit, use your old insole as a template and trim carefully with scissors along the toe.
- Press the insole flat into the shoe so the heel sits snugly at the back.
- Air the insoles out overnight now and then to keep the charcoal working at its best.

Frequently asked questions
Do these insoles really stop foot odour?
Yes. The activated charcoal actively absorbs moisture and neutralises the bacteria responsible for odour, which is far more effective than simply masking the smell.
Can I trim them to fit my shoes?
You can. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size and trim gently along the toe using your old insole as a guide.
Are they suitable for leather dress shoes?
Absolutely. The slim profile and soft leather top make them ideal for smart shoes as well as everyday footwear.
How many pairs come in a pack?
This listing is for one pair of insoles. Many customers buy two pairs so they can rotate them between their favourite shoes and keep both feeling fresh.
