What are features of a good shoe?
Laces are best because you can modify the tightness in areas where its needed.
Make sure you have room to wiggle your toes.
If the toebox of the shoe is too shallow or narrow then you might get blisters or calluses. Remember, if you have wide feet get a wide shoe instead of going up in size.
General rule of thumb: if you can fold the shoe or twist it....it lacks support and is not a good quality shoe.

FAQ
How long should my orthotics last?
Typically, around 1-2 years. However, factors that may shorten the life of your orthotics are:
Sports, Are you using your orthotics for a high impact sport or long distance running? This could affect the material of the topcover.
Have your orthotics been exposed to water or excessive heat?
Your age. If you are under 18yrs, you could still be growing. Your feet might have outgrown your orthotics. If you have more questions give us a call!
