Tendon
PTTD Type I & II
Progressive condition affecting the tibialis posterior tendon causing medial ankle pain, swelling, and flatfoot deformity.
Medial arch support with deep heel cup, rearfoot posting and medial heel skive to control pronation.
Medial Support Shell
Arthritis
DMICS / Midfoot Osteoarthritis
Degenerative arthritis of the midfoot joints causing dorsal pain, stiffness, and bony prominence.
Semi-rigid shell with metatarsal bar for prominent metatarsal heads and soft cushioning for shock absorption.
Classic Shell
Knee
Anterior Knee Pain
Patellofemoral pain linked to excessive pronation and lower limb malalignment, worsened by stairs and squatting.
Medial rearfoot posting with firm arch support to reduce internal tibial rotation and improve patellar tracking.
Classic Shell
1st MTP Joint
Hallux Limitus / Rigidus
Degenerative osteoarthritis of the 1st MTP joint causing painful, restricted toe-off and altered gait.
Firm arch support with Morton's extension to limit painful dorsiflexion and reduce 1st MTP joint compression.
Hallux Shell
Forefoot
Plantar Plate / Metatarsalgia
Degeneration of the fibrocartilaginous plate beneath the lesser MTP joints causing forefoot pain and toe instability.
Metatarsal dome pad placed proximal to the met heads to offload affected joints and redistribute pressure.
Classic Shell
Overuse
Shin Splints
Overuse condition causing diffuse pain along the medial tibia, common in runners and active patients.
Medial arch support with medial heel wedging to reduce pronatory forces. Full length shock absorbing cover.
Classic Shell
Tendon
Achilles Tendinopathy
Tendon degeneration caused by overload or excessive pronation, affecting the mid-portion or insertion.
Heel raise to reduce tendon strain with medial or lateral posting to counteract pronation or supination.
Classic Shell
Nerve
Morton's Neuroma
Perineural fibrosis of the interdigital nerve causing burning or shooting forefoot pain.
Low profile shell with metatarsal dome placed proximal to affected met heads to reduce transverse compression.
Classic Shell
Heel
Plantar Fasciosis / Heel Spur
Chronic degeneration of the plantar fascia origin causing heel pain, typically worse in the morning after rest.
Medial arch support with plantar fascia groove, cushioned heel and 1st met cut-out to reduce fascial strain.
Groove Shell
Tendon
Peroneal Tendinopathy
Pain and degeneration of the peroneal tendons, commonly seen with cavus feet or lateral instability.
Lateral forefoot posting with lowered medial arch and 1st ray cut-out to reduce supinatory forces.
Lateral Support Shell
Foot Type
Cavus / Lateral Ankle Instability
High-arched rigid foot with poor shock absorption and lateral loading, prone to stress injuries.
Lateral forefoot post with lowered medial arch and 1st ray cut-out to counteract supination.
Lateral Support Shell
Foot Type
Excessive Pronation
Excessive inward rolling of the foot causing lowering of the medial arch and increased lower limb injury risk.
Rearfoot posting with firm medial arch support. Heel skive or medial flange for additional control.
Classic Shell
1st MTP Joint
Hallux Valgus
Lateral deviation of the 1st toe with a prominent MTP joint, linked to hypermobility and tight footwear.
Medial arch support with plantar fascia groove to facilitate 1st MTP dorsiflexion via the reverse windlass effect.
Groove Shell
Nerve
Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome
Compression of the posterior tibial nerve causing burning, tingling, or numbness in the sole of the foot.
Medial arch support with heel skive and deep heel cup to reduce pressure on the tarsal tunnel.
