>My question: Do orthotics fit in all shoes? I pronate and tend to wear anti- >pronation shoes (Avia 2050's). I don't know if the orthotics have anything >to do with the type of shoes that you wear or if they compensate for the >pronation and make "special" shoes unnecessary. When I got my orthotics (about 9 years ago), my doctor told me to look for shoes with the curved last on the bottom. At the time, the Nike Pegasus (Air) was the only shoe (in my price range) that had this. Since then I haven't worried about this too much. I do usually look for shoes with the removeable insert, but I see that someone suggested just cutting out the insert under the pedstal of the orthotic. I'll have to try that...
