Taking Care of Your Feet

RE: Taking Care of Your Feet Post by susanmajp (436) | (07/22/2007) Profile | Contact I have several pairs of custom insoles made directly from impressions of my feet. To properly wear these, you must remove any type of insole in the shoe, including the original arch support. With these, I am able to get away with wearing cheaper shoes. However, nothing lasts quite as long as a well-made pair of shoes. They are definitely worth the price paid for them. RE: Taking Care of Your Feet Post By (Guest Post) (04/28/2005) My husband used to buy cheap($12 or $15) tennis shoes...a pair about every 6 weeks or so because the insoles would get thin and hurt his feet. I finally convinced him to buy a good pair of leather oxford type shoes. He paid $75 dollars but after 3 years, is still wearing them. They came with inserts in them, and he just replaced the inserts for $10. You do the math, and figure out how much money he has saved already, and still lots of wear left in the shoes with the new inserts.

Usually those are your work shoe. As a nurse I have always spent the most on those shoes. Linda
