Anyone ever try Posture control insoles?

BUMP!!!

Searched the forums before posting a new message. I heard about these today and wanted to get some more feedback and make sure that I wasn't being taunted by pseudo-science.

They raise some interesting points about foot structure (Morton's toe) and how it was designed to "correct" that. I've tried orthotics and they've definitely did not do the trick for me. I have a more efficient stride than "most joggers" and I'm not heavy on the heels, which more or less defeats their purpose.

Feedback would be appreciated!!

OK. I have been using mine since January. I think they have had a positive impact on my stride. I do not like that the surface is rather harsh and I developed several hot spots on my feet. I am wondering what happened to me at the Boston Marathon. I had bronchitis and did not run a step for 11 days beforehand but ran anyhow as I was feeling better. However, I forgot my insoles for the race. So I ran in a new pair of shoes, Nike Marathoners, without them inside. I felt fine but after about 10 miles my hips started tightening up really bad as I think I was back to my old stride. I kept on but had my slowest marathon ever (out of 40). I started back to running a couple of days later and was OK- 2 weeks later in the middle of a run my soleus just siezed up suddenly and I had to hobble home. I have been dealing with that now and still the calf area is really tight and limits my running- as there are knots in there that I can't get rid of. I am not sure if it was from running the marathon without the insoles or maybe a result of a breakdown from running with the insoles as this is the leg that doesn't have the problems. Anyhow I am sticking with them and hope this clears up so I can run some good miles again. I wear them in all my shoes and do not wobble as much as I used to when walking.

Well, I caved and ordered a pair. Like someone else said, it seems like these were "made" for me. I did a bunch of reading on the site and it seems the researcher who invented this is currently working on a double-blind study for the US army.

Their website was the first time I've ever seen my problem brought to light, no one could ever figure out why a "flat footed" person like me, with a (minor) morton toe, would supinate like there's no tomorrow, but be static overpronator.

I didn't mind the 45$... but the 17$ shipping was excessive.. hopefully, if they work, you don't have to change them too often..

bumppp

Epic Bump.

Anyone use these? any feedback?

I think my struggles may be caused by my foot structure.

Whats the difference between posture insoels and insoels that just correct biomechnical imabalances? Pornantion insoles look good to me will these help if you have bad posture?

I designed these insoles based on my clinical studies. Very pleased to hear how the insoles have improved your running.
