For retail purchases, provide proof of purchase and shipping information. We offer replacement or store credit for valid warranty claims within terms. No refunds for retail purchases.

We reserve the right to reject claims not meeting fair use or terms.
We initially offered two arch types, but due to popularity and cost considerations, we now only produce the High Arch model. It's only slightly higher than the Standard Arch and suits most foot types. If you experience discomfort, we have a trick to help the arch mold to your feet quickly. Many customers who preferred the Standard Arch now love the High Arch after trying this trick.

The comfort and correct positioning of the arch are key. Archies are slightly narrower to ensure the foot stays secure and the orthotic aligns properly. Most people, even with wide feet, find they can adjust the straps for a comfortable fit. The stretchable straps can accommodate wider feet if needed.

Full Length Casual insoles suit boots with removable soles; 3/4 Casual insoles are an option if soles can't be removed.
