I bought the good feet system 2 years ago and they did not help at all. Over $500.00 blown. Today I bought the Dr. Scholls arch supports at Walmart and instant relief.
Many 12 year olds don't need arch supports but some do depending on the types of feet they have and the types of activities they undertake. My granddaughter at 6 yrs old couldn't walk across the room without tripping because she had such flat feet inherited from her dad. She has been fitted with two different types of arch supports for a variety of shoes and activities and is doing great now. She hasn't had any problem moving them from one shoe to another. She won't go without them.
@ARCHINTEGRITY She should. Think of a shoe as a cast. You break your arm, you wear a cast, the arm weakens. Now wear a shoe (a cast) which immobilizes your foot for years and your arch muscle weakens tell the arch collapses, at which point you make the cast even thicker (add arch support) and...what? Have her find a nice grassy area and go on 30 min walks every other day. I'll bet you in less then 2 months she doesn't need orthotics at all.
I had a lot of foot pain, to the point where I could barely walk.
I went to Good Feet and got some arch supports and was able to walk out of that store without pain for the first time in years. Thanks guys - keep up the good work!
@ww2flyguy Let me make a guess. You wear shoes a lot. Don't walk around barefoot at all if you can help it. If shoes caused your problem, which they did, why go to the problem for a solution? If your foot muscles are weak, why weaken them further by immobilizing your foot to an even greater degree?
What a joke - the most expensive pre-made and uncomfortable arch supports and on the market... you must be the store owner! You can get a custom orthotic for these prices.
@RealtyStep custom orthotics cast the foot, which only prevents the problem from getting worse, since the foot is a conformer it takes on the shape of what is put beneath it. so these supports put the mold of the perfect foot under it, which realigns your whole skeletal system. get educated before you talk crap.
I am returning these pieces of shit today!

is it normal for a 12 yr old to need orthotics?
