jimmy Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 Hi I have a customer who, after being born with a club foot, has been left with one foot size 5 and one foot size 3 1/2. She has lived with having to buy 2 pairs of shoes throughout her life and she has now questioned me as to whether a special insole could be made for her as she is sick of using cotton wool (for example) to pad out her shoes. If you know of anyone please could you contact me 01462 436789. Cheers Jimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 Jimmy, I've moved this to the shoe repair section. Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingerbas Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 What she needs is an insole with a toe filler, either you or her local orthotic dept can do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elfman Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 hello jimmy it is quite easy for you to do this yourself ,the only sticking point is if she needs any remediel adaptions .ie wedges or met bars .if the answer is no and she only requires a filler for want of a better word then you can do it ,if you have any queries pm me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh-Candoit (ENG) Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 As an alternative there is/was a society called the "Odd Feet Society" were folk with differing foot sizes swapped shoes. Was based somewhere in Cheshire but I was 15 years or so ago, worth a "Google" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
