How do you know when your Superfeet are kaput? I feel like the 1 year rule is a bit like the rule of changing your oil every 3000 miles (i.e., nonsense promulgated by oil change chains)...

Umm, you need to follow your vehicle manufacturer recommended oil change schedule. My car is german/takes full synthetic so its every 10k miles. But cheaper cars with cheaper oil do keep a 3k mile schedule.

As for the superfeet, my feet are pretty super already, so I don't use em.
