A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Unfortunately, the ones I'm a fan of have been discontinued. It was the Enduro-Sole by Columbia. I lived near a Columbia clearance store when they got axed, and they had a TON of them for super cheap, so I stocked up.
...and I'm almost out. Q_Q
What made them good is that they're made of a rubbery material that gets soft when it's super hot, so the first thing you'd do when you crack a new pair open is put them in the oven and bake them at like 250* for a few minutes. Take them out, quickly put them in your shoes, step in, and just walk a bit until they cool.
It was hot enough to be uncomfortable, but not so much that you'd actually get burned. Kinda like molding a mouth guard from boiling water.
Anyway, once it conformed to your feet and then cooled, that shape became permanent, so even with a brand new stiff-ass pair of shoes, you pop those insoles in and it'd feel like they've been broken in for years.
There's probably something else on the market that works the same way, but I haven't actually searched, since I've never needed to; but the Columbia ones at least are SO comfortable!
Well, the good news is that lots of different companies make thermal moldable inserts. From what you said and the info from the link, they're probably made out of Cloud Crepe with a durometer of 45 or less. So when you run out it shouldn't be a big deal, should be pretty easy to find.
Oven baked insoles. Now I'm closer to having read everything
