Superfeet Green Vs Orange Insoles

Today we’re going to dive into Superfeet green vs orange insoles and what the differences are between the two.

You’ll also learn the type of feet that would match best with these.

If you didn’t know, Superfeet is one of the most popular orthotic brands you can find.

They have a variety of styles and fits that are all color coordinated.

And the green and orange are some of their more popular styles.

To learn which one is better for certain feet, we’re doing the Superfeet green vs orange comparison.

Below is a more detailed breakdown of the two orthotics.

The orange insert has more forefoot cushioning, a deeper heel cup, and a more aggressive arch than the green insert, which has a patented orthotic form with wide sides and a deep heel cup.

Both provide wide arches and narrow heels that effectively align the lower limb, which is advantageous for the knees, hips, and back.

A person with a higher arch and a narrower heel who desires better response from the ankle to the knee, hip, and back may benefit from the orange insert.

But to really know for sure which one is right for your feet, you’ll have to try them.

To do that, scroll down, and schedule an appointment.

How To Stop Heel Slip

Want to know how to stop heel slip?

Check out the video below…

One of the biggest challenges people have when it comes to new shoes or boots is heel slippage.

The boot or shoe could be the correct length for your foot, but as soon as you try it on, you notice that your heel slips.

That’s something you don’t want to happen.

One big reason why is it can make existing foot issues worse. It can change the entire dynamic of how your foot moves. The more that happens, the worse the issues become. It could even cause foot issues that didn’t exist before.

Blisters are just one small example of what can pop up.

When your heel slips, it’s generally a sign that the shoe isn’t the right fit for you. It could be that the shoe is simply the wrong size, the toe box is too big, or the shoe is too wide.

There is a whole host of reasons why your heel could slip.

Whatever the reason, you want to lock your heel in place.

And the most important part of that is to make sure the shoes fit the right way when you buy them.

That’s why it’s so important to go through an actual shoe-fitting process, and not just order a pair of shoes sight unseen online.

But what do you do if you already have shoes and your heels are slipping?

Well, in the video on this page, I go into a few strategies you can use that will help with this issue.

Now, if you are still dealing with this issue, and have tried everything in this video, then there’s something else going on that needs to be looked at.

If that’s the case, scroll down below and schedule a time with me so we can get everything squared away.

In the meantime, make sure you try the techniques in the video.

Filling The Boot Void

Let’s talk a little bit about filling the boot void. First, what do we mean by the “boot void”?

Well, over the past few years with COVID and what it’s done to the shoe industry, a bunch of local stores were forced to close.

Many of those stores had work boots. Since those stores are no longer around, it has been harder for people to find work boots locally.

More and more have turned to the internet to find the boots which has helped, but there has been one big challenge with that.

That is, people have no idea if the boots will fit and how they will feel.

So it’s become a shot in the dark. When they order the boots, they’re hoping the boots will fit and be comfortable.

But they’ll only know that once the boots arrive.

Plus, depending on the boot, the company, and where the boots are ordered from, it could take quite a while for the boots to be delivered.

It’s only once they arrive and they try the boots on will the person know if the boots are right or not.

If the boots don’t fit, they have to send them back and wait for the replacements to arrive. Which can be a real pain. And there’s no guarantee that those will fit or feel any better.

What can make it even more challenging is that boots are not like sneakers. They are rigid, stiff, and can have a much longer break-in period.

So the fit and feel of a boot is that much more important. Especially when trying them for the first time.

To help with all of this, we’ve been focused on filling the boot void.

We have more work boots in stock than ever before, in all sorts of different brands and styles.

And in the video above, you’ll see how we are filling that void, and you will see some of the different types of work boots we offer.

So if you need work boots that are high-quality, comfortable, and easy to get, we’ve got them. There’s no worrying about whether or not a boot will fit or if it will hurt your feet.

We have multiple brands and styles that you can try on, and you’ll know instantly which boot is right for you.

If you’d like to see what we have, and want to try the work boots on, scroll down and schedule an appointment.

That way we can make sure you end up with exactly what you want.

Video Breakdown Of Filling The Boot Void

“Filling the Void Left By Traditional Retailers: Meeting The Need For Work Boots In Our Area”

One of the things I want to talk about today is how we are trying to meet the need for work boots in our area, now that many traditional retailers are no longer distributing them. We have added a wide variety of work boots to our inventory, including hikers, loggers, and light hikers, all of which are waterproof, slip-resistant, and have a variety of souls.

Hiker Work Boots

We have a wide selection of hikers, including those with and without safety toes, and many are oil-resistant and are weatherproof. People tend to prefer the lightweight comp toe, as it is easier to wear on the job.

Logger Work Boots

We also have a variety of logger work boots, which come in a variety of colors and with or without steel. These boots are made in the USA, and are great for those who need a rugged soul but balanced on high bars.

Traditional Boots

We have been selling boots by Danner for a long time, which are great for those who need a more traditional soul but with a balanced heel. We also have a selection of boots by Thorogood, which are great for those high-steel guys who need that indoor soul.

To try these on scroll down and schedule an appointment.

What Is Plantar Fasciitis And What Helps It?

So what is plantar fasciitis? Well, in short, it’s one of the most common causes of foot pain. It’s estimated to impact around 2 million people in the United States each year. And one-in-ten people will have to deal with it during their lifetime.

As for who gets it…

Anyone can develop it. It’s not just runners or athletes. Although there is a higher likelihood of developing it if you’re active.

It is most common in people between the ages of 40-60, and obesity has been found to be a factor because of the added weight and stress placed on the ligaments and tendons of the feet.

If you have been diagnosed with plantar fasciitis is there anything related to shoes that can help?

Absolutely, and the video above will break down what to look for and what to stay away from if you’re dealing with it.

Plus, the video will explain what is going on with your foot and how that is triggering the issues.

So if you’d like to know more about what plantar fasciitis is and what you can do about it, make sure you watch the video.

Mephisto Harrison Review

Today I have the Mephisto Harrison Review.

Just like the other Mephisto shoes that I carry, such as the…

And the Romea…

The Harrison’s are extremely high-quality.

As well as the other models, they are also hand-made.

And you’ll be able to see the quality and things such as double stitching, brass eyelets, and quality leather in the video.

On top of that, the Harrisons are also pretty comfortable.

And this is a big deal…

They are stylish, and they look really nice.

Oh, there is one other important thing to know.

That is, they run large.

So you will probably have to size down at least one size if not more.

In fact, I am two sizes smaller in some of their shoes.

So these are definitely a pair of shoes you will want to try on to know for sure.

And if you’d like to try them on, scroll down to the calendar below and schedule a time to come in.

I’m pretty sure that you’ll like these shoes.

To learn a bit more, make sure you watch the Mephisto Harrison review video above.

Powerstep Inserts Versus Superfeet Inserts

Today we’re going to dive into PowerStep inserts versus Superfeet inserts.

Just like shoe companies, each insert company approaches how they do things a little bit differently.

Both PowerStep and Superfeet have been around for quite a while.

They are two of the bigger players in the market.

Between the two companies, there are quite a few different offerings with their inserts.

That allows them to cater to various types of feet and/or issues.

And in the video on this page, I break down the approach these two companies take with their inserts, and…

What makes them different.

Even though I’ve carried Superfeet for over 20 years, I wanted to bring PowerStep into the mix because they provide a good product.

And their inserts have been able to help quite a few people.

If you want to know more about the PowerStep inserts versus Superfeet inserts, check out the video on this page.

And if you’d like to see which would be better for your feet, schedule an appointment by using the calendar below.

Mephisto Ylona Review

Today we’re diving into the Mephisto Ylona Review. This is the fourth shoe in the Mephisto video series.

Up to this point, we’ve done reviews of the Mephisto…

Edlef

Raine

And Twain.

All of these have either been slip-on shoes or boots.

But the Ylona is different and it’s specifically for women.

It’s the first “sneaker” that I’m reviewing for Mephisto.

And it’s not just a lace-up sneaker but also zips up as well.

Which you’ll see more about in the video.

To learn more, make sure you watch the video.

Mephisto Raine Review

As for the Raine, it’s a bit different. It’s not a shoe, it’s a boot. And it’s made for women.

And this boot is not the “rough and tumble” utility boot like the Danner Vicious, or Hoss Bronc.

The Raine is more of a casual ankle boot.

And in the Mephisto Raine review, you’ll learn about some of the features and benefits of the Raine and what makes it a good boot.

So check it out.

But before you schedule an appointment, make sure to watch the Mephisto Edlef shoe review first.

How Shoes Should Fit

Let’s talk about how shoes should fit. The first thing to know is that most people are wearing the wrong size shoe.

Most of the foot problems I see stem from shoes that are the wrong size for a person’s foot.

So knowing how shoes should fit can prevent quite a bit of potential foot problems down the road.

The other thing to know is that the fitting process involves a bit more than just making sure you have room at the end of the shoe.

You have to know the size of your foot.

That means not just the length.

You have to consider the width.

And you have to see if you have a thick foot or not.

That’s not all.

To dive into the rest of it, I put together a short video above that shows how shoes should fit.

That will show you how the process works, and what you should look for when trying on new shoes.

Knowing this will teach you how to find shoes that work for your feet.

But if you want the perfect fit, then you can always schedule an appointment with me so we can go through a shoe-fitting assessment.

Once we go through that, we can try different shoes, see what works best for your foot, and then go from there.

Either way, knowing how shoes should fit is the key to happy feet.

So make sure you watch the video.

When To Replace Orthotics

Customers are always asking about when to replace orthotics.

They also ask about how to maintain and clean them so they can get the most out of them.

Well, the good news is that the technology and materials have improved over the years so a good pair of custom orthotics won’t just fall apart like they did years ago.

Of course, if you maintain them and clean them that goes a long way to keep them in great shape.

That being said how do we know when to replace orthotics?

In the video above I go into when to replace them…

And the simple ways to maintain and clean them.

I think you may be surprised by what you learn about this.

You’ll even get to see my personal pair of orthotics and what I do with them so I can get the most out of them.

So if you want to know when to replace orthotics and how to keep the ones you have clean make sure you watch the video above.

If you need orthotics please schedule an appointment by using the calendar below.

Are Slipper Cast Orthotics Better Than 3D Scans, Foam Impressions, And Other Types?

Are slipper cast orthotics the best, or are the foam, 3D scans, or other types better? Well, the first thing to know is as technology improves there will be more options for you to choose from.

But having all the options to choose from when getting orthotics will make it a bit more challenging to know what works best.

So in the video above, you’ll learn about which type of orthotic process is the best to create the most accurate orthotic.

Just in case you’re not sure what slipper cast orthotics are, that’s where plaster is wrapped around the foot, and then a bag is placed over everything, and the air is removed.

This creates a pressure mold of your foot.

The 3D scan orthotics process is exactly what it sounds like. A digital scan is made of your foot. From there, an orthotic is created based on that scan.

The foam process is generally where the foot is pressed into foam which leaves an impression. Then an orthotic is made from that impression.

There are also pressure mats, and other types of devices that you can stand on that create impressions of your feet.

As you can see, there are a lot of options.

So is the slipper cast orthotic the best? Or is it the 3D scan or other methods?

Check out the video to find out what will be best for your foot.

If you are looking for orthotics or are in any foot pain, feel free to schedule a consultation below.

Dr. Scholl’s Versus Superfeet Inserts – Which Are Better?

Who do you think would win in a battle between Dr. Scholl’s versus Superfeet inserts? Well, that’s what this video is all about.

Both companies are trying to solve the same issues. But each company approaches it from a different perspective.

In general, Dr. Scholl’s inserts focus on “cushion,” whereas Superfeet focuses more on the shape.

What is meant by “shape” is that the Superfeet inserts are designed around the shape of the foot.

And in this video , you’ll see how the shape and the cushion play a role in benefiting the foot.

On top of that, you’ll learn how the foot operates and how the inserts truly help the feet.

If you’re having foot pain then you’ll definitely want an insert that works with your foot.

If you’d like to stop by the store and see how we can help with any foot problems, or would like to try the inserts, then schedule an appointment below.

The Shoe Breakdown – What We Carry

For years we were known as just a “running shoe” store. As time went on things evolved and different types of shoes would be added to the inventory.

Now, we cover all sorts of different types of shoes, styles, ranges, and so on.

There’s pretty much a shoe for any person.

And in the video you see here, I break down a bunch of different shoes that are actually carried here at the store.

It’ll give a good idea of what you’ll find here, and also even go into some of the “niche” specialty shoes.

What you see here just scratches the surface.

There’s a lot more, I just wanted to keep the video from being too long.

If you want to try on any of the shoes you see in the video just scroll down and schedule an appointment.

What You Need To Know About Medical Shoes

The medical shoe segment of the footwear industry is a BIG one.

But it’s not one you hear too much about unless you have a specific medical or foot issue.

That being said…

A lot more attention should be paid to it because so many people are helped by it.

So I wanted to do a medical shoe overview or breakdown of what it’s all about and what is available.

This overview is important because there are quite a few people who can be helped by these shoes but don’t know where to start.

That’s because it’s not marketed or advertised as much as the “normal shoes.”

But there are quite a few options that can help with all sorts of foot and medical issues as you’ll see in the video.

And some of the shoes they’ve created are pretty cool.

Over the years they’ve even improved the look of the shoes as well so they’re not just the big ugly shoe that many of us think of when we think of medical shoes.

So if you’re curious about medical shoes or think you may need some this video will be perfect for you.

Even if you don’t need medical shoes the video is worth a watch because you’ll see how even the name brands can be used as medical shoes.

If you’d like to see what’s available here at the store or try some of them on then scroll down and schedule an appointment.

Altra Lone Peak 5 Review And Basic History

Above is a quick video that is the Altra Lone Peak 5 review. Plus, you’ll learn a little bit of history around Altra and how it came to be.

The interesting thing is the founders of Altra were asked to give advice about business and they both said “do not go into the shoe business.”

They never realized how tough of a journey it would be but they ended up creating the Altra brand which has become very popular, especially among the minimal community.

In the video you’ll see why I like this shoe and why it has benefits not just for people in the minimal community.

So check it out.

And if you want to try a pair on or are having foot pain or shoe related problems then just schedule an appointment below.

On Cloudace Shoe Review

The video above is the On Cloudace shoe review. This is a VERY short and quick video that will highight the benefits and features of the shoe.

I’ve been carrying the On brand at the store for a while now and it’s been solid. There are quite a few customers who love not just the On brand but the Cloudace as well. It’s definitely a different type of shoe, and has a different look from most others out there, but it is a GOOD shoe.

So if you want to see the biggest benefits and features of the Cloudace check out the video above.

And if you’d like to try a pair on, scroll down below and schedule an appointment. We’ll go through a full fitting proces so you can see what the Cloud Ace feels like and to see if it’s the right shoe for you.

Why Stiff Shoes Are Good!!!

It may sound a bit backward but stiff shoes are good. Most of the time, we think if we’re having foot pain or issues that a softer shoe will help.

And in some cases, it will. It always depends on the person.

But in general, stiff shoes are a good thing.

Think of shoes as the foundation to support your feet.

If you build a house and put the foundation on soft ground, or sand, then you’re house is going to have A LOT of problems.

The same goes for your feet.

Soft shoes are like a weak foundation.

So stiff shoes will be better for most people out there.

Now, when we say “stiff” we don’t mean stiff as a board, with no flex.

We mean shoes that offer solid support.

And in the video above you’ll see what type of shoes are good, plus you’ll see how important these stiffer shoes are in keeping your feet supported, happy, and healthy.

Lastly, if you’re having foot pain and need help determining what the issue is and want to alleviate that pain then schedule an appointment below.

What Makes A Shoe Good?

So what makes a shoe good? Ever walk into a shoe store or shop around online and actually ask yourself, “what makes a shoe good?”

Well, after being in the shoe industry for over 40 years what I’ve found is that most people shop for shoes based on what they need the shoe for first. It could be work, running, a casual event, etc.

Then once that is determined the next 3 criteria that decides what shoe they get are…

Fashion
Fashion
Fashion

Then, it’s finding the shoe in their size.

Which, a lot of times is usually the wrong size.

If they are looking at the shoe in person, then they’ll try it on and hope it fits.

And a lot of times the shoe won’t fit, but they like the look of it so much that they buy it anyway.

If they buy it online, they won’t even be able to try it on first. But they’ll buy it anyway and hope it fits.

If not, they’ll convince themselves it fits “good enough” or they’ll return it.

Almost nowhere in the shoe buying process do they stop to ask, “what makes a shoe good?”

But this question should be asked right after you determine what you need the shoes for.

Here’s the catch though…

Since shoe companies are not in the business of educating their customers most consumers don’t know what makes a shoe good.

So the video above, will explain the major areas for you to focus on to determine what makes a shoe good.

If you know what to look for, you’ll know more than 95% of the shoe buying population.

How The Foot Works With Shoes And Inserts

How the foot works and actually allows us to move around the way that we do is pretty amazing. It has to deal with constant pressure, uneven surfaces, and support the rest of your body. And it has to do that every waking minute for a lifetime.

So it makes sense that over time having some foot problems isn’t that uncommon.

But once those foot problems pop up, knowing how to fix them can be a tricky situation for you.

So understanding how the foot actually works is important.

Then knowing how shoes and inserts interact with your foot to provide a solution is the key.

In the video above you’ll see how the foot works with shoes and inserts to make everything play well together.

Everything You Need To Know About Shoes, Inserts, And Orthotics

A huge part of the process here at the store is helping to educate customers when it comes to shoes, inserts, and orthotics.

Normally, when you walk into any big box shoe store you’ll get a kid who brings out a pair of shoes when you tell them your shoe size.

Maybe they’ll put your foot in a measuring device (Brannock) but that’s about it.

So when you need real help with your feet there are a lot of unknowns and not too many reliable places to turn.

That’s why knowing what to look for shoes and inserts is so important.

And the video above is basic breakdown of that education process.

You’ll learn about…

How to know the basics of what a quality shoe is.
The different types of inserts and how to tell them apart.
And the custom orthotic process.

So if you want to know everything about the shoe, insert, and orthotic process check out the video.

And if you need help with any of this or are in pain schedule an appointment by using the calendar below.

How New Balance Shoes Are Made

This is a fascinating video that show how New Balance shoes are made. The interesting part is that it’s not all automated and a bunch of robots making the shoes.. There are actually multiple people that play a role in creating each shoe.

That’s one big reason why New Balance shoes are considered higher quality.

Not only that, there are 5 factories across Maine and Massachusetts that help to make the shoes.

Oh, and one other interesting note about this video…

You’ll learn what some of the model numbers actually mean.

So if you ever wanted to know how New Balance shoes are made you’ll like this video.

And if you’d like to try on a pair of New Balance shoes you can schedule an appointment by scrolling down and using the calendar below.

Saucony Ride 14 Review

This is the Saucony Ride 14 review. This is the latest version of one of Saucony’s best shoes.

The great thing about this shoe is it’s not just for runners. It’s also a great everyday shoe that has a solid “firmer” fit, and is extremely comfortable.

It’s a shoe that is very breathable, so your feet don’t sweat like crazy and it has a nice padded tongue.

Another feature that stands out about the Saucony Ride 14 is that this is a durable shoe.

In an era where materials wear down faster and faster, this shoe seems to hold up better.

So if you are into running, or are using your shoes quite a bit, these will hold up for most of what is thrown at it.

If you’d like to watch the Saucony Ride 14 review and see what some of the different men and women’s models look like then check it out.

“Frank Was Able To Solve My Problem”

Eileen Margenat

Hello. My name is Eileen Margenat, and I was referred to Frank Giannino back in 2018.

At that time I was working full-time nights as a nurse in the neonatal intensive care unit at Westchester Medical Center, and my friend noticed me hobbling down the hallway and stopped and asked me why I was walking that way.

I said to her, I am in so much pain. I think I have a heel spur or plantar fasciitis, I’m not sure. She says you have to go see Frank. I said, Who’s Frank? She goes. He has a running store up in Middletown.

And I took her advice, and Frank spent well over an hour with me custom fitting my feet to the perfect orthotic and a new pair of sneakers.

And my friend told me in two weeks her feet were like nothing had ever been wrong. I think mine were so severe it took a little longer, maybe 3-4 weeks at the most.

But having been to two different foot doctors, all wanting to shoot me up with cortisone and charge me exorbitant prices for a custom orthotic, Frank was able to solve my problem in four weeks.

I felt like I could even start running again. It was amazing. I could not believe how good I felt, and the cost was substantially less than what the foot doctors wanted to charge me. So it was well worth my visit.

I have since referred three of my closest friends and my brother who drove all the way from Clinton, Connecticut to go see Frank.

So I appreciate his very kind and sweet demeanor, and his customer service is number one. And Frank, I hope you stay there for a long time because I can send a lot more people your way. Appreciate you so much. Thank you.

Introducing SAS

So we wanted to introduce you to the SAS. It’s a great brand that we’re now carrying in stock.

The SAS shoes are a full-line comfort shoe that are true to size.

So if you wear a size 11, that’s the size you would need. Some shoe brands have sizes that are not true to your actual foot size. But SAS is not one of them.

On top of being true to size, they also offer width sizes. So if you have a wider foot, SAS will have something to for you as well.

The things we really love about the SAS shoes are that they are hand-crafted, high-quality, and VERY comfortable. They’re also made in the U.S.A.

In fact, SAS stands for San Antonio Shoemakers which they prefer to be called, but they don’t mind people calling them SAS.

Something else to note about SAS…

Is that their shoes will accommodate orthotics. So if you have orthotics or know you need a high-quality shoe to go with orthotics, these will work really well.

So let’s take a look at a few of their shoes.

The first one up is the Journey…

The Journey is designed to be an active shoe. Just like the other shoes on this page, it is handcrafted. It includes genuine leather and Mesh uppers.

It also features a removable CoolStep™ footbed, shock-absorbing midsole, and a flexible gripped outsole.

Which basically means it’s a supportive shoe that will keep your feet cool when wearing them in all sorts of activities.

Here’s a picture of them in the store…

The next one up is the JV…

The JV has an adjustable hook and loop strap that lends to a custom fit. Their SAS Comfort Outsole™, Steady Trac Midsole™, and Arcfit™ heel stabilizer all work together to provide great support.

There is also additional support for the three main pressure points of the foot.

The footbed and upper mesh of the shoe keep it lightweight and help prevent heat buildup under your feet.

Basically, what all that means is that it is a very supportive, lightweight shoe, where the bottoms of your feet don’t get that hot.

Here’s a shot of a few of them in the store…

The last one is the Tour Mesh…

The Tour Mesh has a removable footbed, shock-absorbing midsole, and an outsole that is flexible to keep your foot supported and cushioned.

It also provides all-day comfort with firm heel support and includes their exclusive EZ Lace™ system. All of it is designed to create a very comfortable, well-fitting shoe.

Something else to know about SAS. They’ve been around since the mid 1970’s. They have a long history of making high-quality shoes that quite a few people like.

So if you’re looking for a brand of shoes that are high-quality, comfortable, comes in wide-widths, and are made in the U.S.A…

“I’m Not Feeling The Pain In My Knees And Ankles Anymore”

Jason Lichtenstein

Before I went in to see Frank I was always experiencing a lot of trouble when I was running, and I never understood why.

I was recommended to stop in and get fitted for a shoe and actually run in a shoe that was made for my foot type. After stopping in and talking to Frank, I got fitted for the right shoe.

I’ve been wearing the same shoe now for a couple of years. I’ve increased my running exponentially, and it’s not as laboring as it once was because I know that now that I’m wearing the right type of shoe and everything is working out the way it’s supposed to work out, I’m not feeling the pain I was feeling anymore in my knees and my ankles.

So thanks to the help of Frank and John helping me find the right pair of shoes, I’ve been having a much better experience with my running.

“They Will Keep You Pain Free”

Dave Badolato

For almost 20 years, Frank’s custom shoe fitting has kept me pain free, with custom orthotics and properly fitted shoes for either walking, running or playing.

I will highly recommend Frank and John for whatever your shoe fitting needs are.

They will keep you pain free.

They are always professional, courteous, and will listen to your needs.

“I’m Now Able To Run Fairly Pain Free”

James Massi

My name is James Masi and I’ve been to Frank’s store many times over the years. Decades ago I did my 1st 10K. Cheap shoes, poor orthotics, I suffered greatly.

Went to see Franky G. He looked at my shoes, asked me how to stand there. He says, your shoes are wrong, you have improper orthotics.

Ever since then, that was decades ago, Frank is the only one that touches my feet.

He’s provided me over the decades with excellent shoes, the proper orthotics.

I’m now able to run fairly pain free and feel a little bit more competitive for my age. I am 68.

I’ve never had a bad experience with Frank. He’s the ultimate professional. He’s patient with his customers. He definitely goes out of his way to get to the root cause of your foot problem and does everything in his power to try to alleviate it, and get you back out on the streets.

I highly recommend Frank for all your foot needs, Thank you. Have a good day
