Orthopedic insoles

[Manonabike]

I got some done through the NHS about 12 years ago, well I thought it was the NHS as the Physio ordered them for me. They were £60 and they were very good.

I was struggled with overpronate and finally found the right fit. I have been running for the past two years in the Adidas Supernova. Its really a great shoe, with great support and good look. You could try this, i think it will helpful to you. Thanks.

You will get better than you can get in the high street or sports shops, it's where my physio got mine from.

I went to a local universities Physio Depart (FASIC) and they were less than a 1/4 of the OP.

Made by Giro for the cycling market. I have a pair and they work for me - lack of arch support is found in over-pronation.

Oh, should have mentioned that Wiggle sell the Giro insoles.

Unless you really have a noticable disability such as shorter leg or a foot thats not quite the right shape or size I have found them to be complete snake oil along with suport bandages and neoprene braces.

Hey- after spending years thinking i was knocked kneed i've recently been diagnosed with overpronation. I admit this isin't the best position to be in when wearing cleats, it's alot better then being knocked kneed.

Has anyone had any experience with insoles recomended to relieve overpronation?

I was at the cycle show and a company was selling custom made ones at a whopping £350 a set but unfortunatly i'm not quite in a position to fork out that amount of money.

any suggestions?

I've had problems with running from my overpronation and when I went for a pro-bike fit they spent a lot of time with my cleats and foot positioning. While insoles were mentioned, they put some wedges between cleat and shoe to help with my foot positioning, angle etc. to see if they worked. In the theoritcally analysis etc. during the fitting they appeared to do the trick (some fine tuning was made after a couple of test runs) and my exerience so far has been positive.

Not saying wedges (not wedgies!) are the answer for overrponation (before anyone corrects me on the medical science) but as someone who 'suffers' from overpronation they were an option that so far seems to be working well for me. Therefore, something worth considering. Mine were included as part of a 3 hr pro-bike fit that cost me £130.

Well I've been to the podiatrist and she has advised unfortunately i have a slight bow in my tibia which is causing my ankle to be out of alignment with my knee. I've been referred to the physio who is going to do go through some exercises to re-develop my muscles to compensate. I've got an insole- although going to look at the giro ones, and looking into a bike fit although i can't afford it at the moment it's something i will look into

Thanks for the input I'll keep you posted
