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.

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.
