Wool insoles; Chenna Barbee?
After reading the posts about the Chenna Barbee woolen insoles, I went to their website; I was unable to place an order, so I emailed them about the issue and my interest... that was a few days ago and I haven't heard back.
Perhaps someone has been in contact with them recently? Or knows another source for a well made wool insole?

Just for clarity it is ChennaBaree. The insoles are available now at orthonatural.ca Many people on this site who have ordered have bought multiple pairs. I have automated significant discounts for multiple pairs so keep it in mind. Discounts are detailed on the site. A new version will be available soon which is 100% Canadian felt in 2 densities. A little bit thicker, warmer and all Canadian for those of you for whom it might matter. Your support has been super meaningful to me and inspired me to keep it going.

Re: Wool insoles; Chenna Barbee?
Hello Paul, I have a pair of Chenna Barre. I believe the company was sold a few years past. I like my wool insoles. I am not sure about the quality of the current product. If you decide to purchase, I’m sure many people here would appreciate your review. I don’t think I would have missed a review of this product since ownership changed

It sounds like @paulkasdan is the guy responsible for producing those great insoles.
I have bought from the old and the new site and really like them.
Will be interested to see what his new product is like.
For some reason, his post of the insole website didn’t come through as a web link, so here it is again:
www.orthonatural.ca
Here’s a couple of links from this forum on the insoles:

viewtopic.php?f=19&t=2894&p=29965&hilit ... ree#p29965
I have no interest in this, other than recommending a good product based on personal experience and info from other forum members.

Thanks @Stephen That just proves proves how fried my brain is after a long 12 hour day! Well, that’s my excuse. I’m still a bit embarrassed.
@paulkasdan I am glad to hear you are producing virgin wool orthodontic insoles. When I need another pair I will search up this thread and order another pair. I couldn’t be more pleased with my original wool insoles.
