Hi all...
I've had loads of great advice from peeps on here so far so thanks.
I got my other boot back the other day so went to the dry slope to try them out (now that they have been blown out where the little toe is). The good news is my little toe no longer felt crushed in my boots, the problem is i'm still getting pain in my outside arches (even got a little in the left inner arch today).
Will a custom moulded footbed help this at all? When i took my boots off it felt like the muscle on the outer edge of my foot was bulging out??
custom moulded footbeds are always a good idea - when I bought my boots in the states they put them in every pair they sold as standard (at 100 bucks a pop). Worth every penny
I have had 2 lots of moulded footbeds and due to having a very high instep it meant the top of my foot was in pain as it was pushed against the top of the boot... went to see a foot specialist in Jan and he advised to take out the moulds and put the original ones back in, I could not find originals ones so took some out of my trainers and it def. made a diff. my feet did not hurt so much... maybe moulds work for some and not for others?
I too had footbeds put in my boots last week in pamps and finally sorted out a plague of probs with my boots. Have to recommend them and Pete from interski for doing them. Best £40 I've spent in a while.
I've got both the cheaper put in the oven footbeds and the shop moulded more expensive ones, and they both work a treat.
I noticed the difference instantly not only in confort but because i have more support i get more response from the board as my foot is no longer "sloshing" around in my boot
i had some boots fitted last year, found them uncomfortable pain in the arches so had some foodbeds made but pain was still there. boots cost 220 and beds 50, i went one size bigger and purchased head boots what a difference can now ski all day in comfort, the solamon foil boots were poor in comparison.
