=== How to make your own insoles from cardboard  ===

#  Remove the old insole from your shoe. Shake off any dirt or surface grime.
#  Place the old insole over cardboard. The cardboard needs to be thick and preferably have a "cushioned" feel to it - old cartons are good.
#  Trace the insole shape with a pencil. Once you have the shape right, you can go over the outline with a marker to make it easier to see.
#  Cut out the insole design. Use scissors that are sharp enough to cut cardboard easily.
#  Repeat. Make two insoles for each shoe. This will allow you to air out one insole.

Hey!  I was doing this by myself when I was NINE! Suspicions confirmed: Folks today just aren't self-reliant!
