I have spinal stenosis with some neuropathy which caused balance problems that resulted in several falls. A little over a year ago I ran across Ortho Feet shoes online. They are an orthopedic shoe that come with arch inserts to customize for your particular situation. I now have several pairs of the shoes, and two pairs of boots. No fall problems since. You get a 60-day wear test with free return if not satisfied. I was a runner for over 50 years and did marathons, half marathons and everything in between. Just over 2 years ago, the stenosis hit. No falls since the shoes, and I do the treadmill daily along with strength and balance exercises. Still wish I could run, but I am very thankful for what I can still do, and the shoes are great. I did return a couple of pairs and got some from the company that better fit my needs. They took the shoes back, no questions asked, and the turnaround time on the replacements was only about two weeks. Very satisfied.

Same here. The Ortho Feet inserts are the best by far.

I have found Ortho Feet to be very helpful and have put their arch supports in some other shoes. I would suggest that you give them a try. I also wear a pair of Hike shoes, with and without socks, around the house as slippers.
