Shoes for orthotics?
I think you should be able to get normal sized shoes because insoles are shaped to your feet .Maybe you should buy the shoes after you have your insoles to see
Reply:you have to take the otthotic to the store with you . put them in the different shoes and try them out. becaue the othotic has the shape needed for your foot buying a shoe that has arch support in it is not a good idea instead but any kind of shoe that you like the look of that has inside it a flat bottom.
Reply:Don't get orthotics as they are a waste of money as I know from experience. Go to the shoe store and get those soles you can slip in your shoes. They are called SOF SOLE. They feel so good and I can walk without having a problem . I have a bad back with several popped and heriated discs and these SOF SOLES in my shoes really help and you can't tell you have a problem. So before spending the money try these first.
