Overpronation
A medial heel post and firm arch to slow the inward roll — for the ankle that collapses in and the knee that feels it.

By condition · custom orthotics
Arch support and a first-ray relief zone to take pressure off the big-toe joint — for the bunion that aches after a day in shoes.
Designed for
A bunion is the big-toe joint drifting outward and its head pushing inward. Two mechanical things make it hurt more: shoes that squeeze it and a foot that rolls inward, driving weight through the joint at the end of each step.
This design works on the second. Arch support and a controlled heel slow the roll, and a relief zone under the first metatarsal head lets the sore joint sit in a shallow pocket rather than on a hard surface. The forefoot is kept low so it does not steal room from a wide toe box — the shoe has to do its part.
Medium shell, first-ray relief pocket, low forefoot profile, full length; trims along the guide.
From your kitchen table to our bench
Everything happens at home except the making. Milled and finished by hand in our New York workshop, from domestic and imported materials.
Where it hurts, what you do all day, which shoes. We match one of 25 designs to you — no diagnosis, just a fit plan.
A foam impression kit ships within 1 business day of your order. Press each foot into the foam, close the box and send it back. Five minutes, no appointment; shipping is free both ways.
Your impression is checked the day it lands — that is the day your delivery clock starts. A technician contours arch, heel and forefoot to your foot; the shell is milled to that contour, finished and checked against your impression.
Under 10 business days from the day we receive your impression, tracked the whole way. Counted in business days from the day your impression arrives at our workshop. Slide them in, lace up, walk. 180 days to decide.
The honest guarantee
Wear your pair for six months. If they are not right, we remake them.

No. A bunion is a change in the joint itself. What an orthotic can do is take pressure off the joint and slow the inward roll that pushes weight onto it, which is what makes the day more comfortable.
A wide toe box, a low heel and a removable insole. The orthotic controls the foot from below; the shoe has to stop squeezing the joint from the sides.
If the bunion is the main complaint, this one — it adds the relief pocket under the joint. If the ankle and knee ache more than the toe, overpronation. Both control the roll.
Your orthotics are shaped from an impression of your own feet, not a size chart, and the shell is set to your weight band. We confirm the length from the impression and trim the pair to the shoe type you told us about. If anything is off, a remake is free inside the 180-day guarantee.
A shelf insole is one of three or four shapes chosen to fit millions of feet; it cushions but it cannot hold a heel or contour an arch that isn't its own. A custom orthotic is shaped from an impression of your foot, so the heel cup, arch profile and forefoot relief are yours. If a shelf insole has already solved your problem, keep it — we say so in our guides.
Full-length designs fit sneakers, walking and running shoes, work boots and most lace-ups; remove the shoe's own insole and slide ours in, trimming along the guide if needed. The three-quarter design is for dress shoes and flats where there is no room for a full insole. Each pair is shaped for one shoe type, which is why a second pair for a different shoe is $139.
