We can adapt just about any kind of footwear for problem feet
Orthopaedic adaptions - a solution for problem feet
There are many ways of ensuring your feet receive the right support from the shoes you wear. Adaptions are a common solution to problematic feet. For example, people who suffer from leg shortenings. We can adapt just about any shoe, even a sports trainer, with a raise (either on the inside or the outside of the shoe) to accommodate for such a problem.

Comfortable shoe adaptions for boots and shoes
Also, for ladies who struggle with very slim legs and cannot wear knee high boots, we can take in most boots to fit comfortably and snugly around the leg.
It is even possible to adapt the sole of a shoe to promote the correct ‘treading’ of the foot (i.e. ensuring the foot rolls onto the balls of the feet and then off the toes) by incorporating a ‘rocker sole’. This is very helpful for people who have had joints fused together and thus have limited motion in the feet.
Orthopaedic adaptions for pronation and supination
We often find that people have problems with the fact that their ankles lean inward or outward (pronation and supination) and that they do not wish to wear orthotics to correct this. In these cases we can insert wedges into the soles and/or heels of shoes to correct the position of the foot and ankle.
