Feet are very complicated things and if its a problem you need to see a professional. I cant vouch personally for the services of this place but I know a lot of people in the ski / sports industry in the UK rate this guy very very highly indeed. Lookup Solutions 4 Feet and take a look. BTW I have no financial motivation for passing this on Im just relaying what Ive heard / read from others. Im considering going there myself if I cant get my bootfitters to resolve my particular problem. Very Happy
