Orthotics Made Specifically for Ski Boots

If you’re a skier, let the doctors at Idaho Foot & Ankle Associates, your podiatrist in Boise, Nampa, and Meridian, ID, help you obtain the best orthotics for your ski boots.

Who Needs Orthotics for Ski Boots?

In short, everyone who wears ski boots should use orthotics. If you’ve ever worn a pair of ski boots, you know that they are generally uncomfortable after you’ve worn them a few times and the cushion sinks. This alone makes it important to get some extra support.

Another issue is that they are not custom-made. This means that every boot of a specific size is made the same exact way. They generally do not take high arches or flat feet into account.

Without decent support inside of the boot, you have to deal with two things. The first is that your fun on the slopes will not be as fun as you want it to be. Your foot will slide around in the ski boot, which affects your performance and can even damage your foot.

Many people have noticed this issue and have started buying smaller boots to prevent it. Unfortunately, wearing any type of shoe in the wrong size can damage your feet and could prevent you from enjoying skiing in the future.

Another problem the lack of support presents comes when you have any type of foot condition. Without the proper support, issues such as plantar fasciitis, heel pain, and other conditions can worsen. As they worsen, they can further impact your performance and your overall life.
