So what's the deal with them? blisters and such?

 

[Tithers]

Ron...no flippin' clue...I wore them for lengthy periods of time before I ran in them.<br><br>
How could they not fit? I got my feet plaster casted. Shizzle and a Dizzle!<br><br>
I'm calling "Shenanigans" on the feet people.<br><br>
I've got flattish feet...my right even worse than my left. I blame it on bad genetics and being heavy for so long.<br><br>
Hey...only 12 MINUTES until your birthday lasagna is ready!

Lasagna will fix them orthotics! It'll fix ANYTHING <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif">

It sounds like you need more specialized insoles but have you ever tried Soles moldable insoles? I swear by 'em; have them in my running and cycling shoes. They're like $40 or so but they're like a cheap version of custom orthotics. You stick them in the oven for a few minutes, put them in your shoes, walk around a bit, and they mold to your feet but still keep a good rigidness.<br><br><a href="http://www2.yoursole.com/products/footbeds/" target="_blank">http://www2.yoursole.com/products/footbeds/</a>

Jahona...at this point it's worth a try.<br><br>
I tried superfeet, but had to toss them b/c they dug into my arches too.<br><br>
Moldable sounds pain-free!<br><br>
WTF...my orthodics were prescription!

 

[jroden]

They'll give you blisters until your feet get some tougher skin where they rub, it's just the way orthodics go. You can try some skin lube or different socks, but in a couple weeks it will be all a memory.

Yuck, sorry to hear that <img alt="sad.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/sad.gif"> Worries me a little as I'm supposed to get my new orthotics this week, which were also a whopping $300. Did you call the feet people and complain?

 

[Tri_coach06]

will you cut the crap with these things already. We have been working togetehr for almost a year and you have been fussing with them the whole time. :frustrated: <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif"><br><br>

[Tithers]

F-in crap! I said I was done. Now get me a bike and make me a pie. Forget the pie...I'm too heavy!<br><br>

What happens if you run w/o the orthotics?

 

[jroden]

I kind of wonder if making a rigid heel cup with a set degree of posting in the heel really has as much of a benefit as I always assumed. I'm sort of questioning if the pronation that happens during the gait cycle just gets transferred to a point later in the weight transfer to the toes. I've always worn orthodics, but sometimes I wonder if they really matter much.

 

[Tithers]

I get injured either way I guess.
