Recommended Shoegear Qualities

We strongly recommend that you be fitted for shoes on each occasion of shoegear purchase. We have found that there is not one brand that is consistently of better quality than others. Shop when you have enough time to shop comfortably.

To benefit you with the most supportive shoegear qualities, we would recommend that you consider the following list of qualities:

1. Very stiff, leather heel counters.

2. Perpendicular heel counters.

3. Leather shoes.

4. Tie shoes – at least four pair of eyelets.

5. Straighter outersoles (sprinting shoes may be somewhat inward

lasted).

If you are encountering difficulty in finding the “right” shoes for you, either by style or fit, ask to speak to the Certified Pedorthotist. He or she should be able to direct you appropriatel

Certainly, if you have questions for us, please contact us at your convenience.

Good Luck!
