Getting custom orthotics was a huge mistake on my part, wasted $600.
I wore them in my running shoes. I'd be able to wear them for about an hour while active, or 2-3 hours sjust sitting, until I would get numbness 100% of the time, followed by sharp stabbing pain that lasted for hours when the numbness wore off.
Once I stopped using them, the pain and numbness went away.
I'm convinced that feet shouldn't be bent in certain ways, and this is one of them.
If you feel you really must get insoles, try the Dr. Scholl's first. It's a lot cheaper than going straight for the custom ones.
