Aetrex
Men's Active Orthotics W/ Metatarsal Support
$69.95 "For forefoot pain that turns up with mileage rather than with standing. If the ball of your foot is fine, take the plain Active and keep the pad out of it."
Aetrex
Men's Premium Memory Foam Orthotics
$79.95 "This is the one I put people in when they stand all day and want to feel it the moment they step in. If you're walking or training rather than standing, take the Active instead and keep the twenty dollars."
Oofos
OOahh Slide 1100 - Men's
$59.95 "Get these for the evening and the morning, not for the shift. For a heel that's already angry, not ending the day barefoot on a tile floor is worth more than most people expect."
Aetrex
Men's Premium Memory Foam Orthotics W/ Metatarsal Support
$79.95 "The pad is the only difference from the plain memory foam version. If the ball of your foot burns or feels like you're walking on a pebble, this is the one. If it doesn't, save yourself the bump."
Aetrex
Men's Active Orthotics
$69.95 "Same arch shape as the memory foam one, firmer underfoot. Cork and Pro-Shox come back faster than memory foam does, which is what you want when you're covering ground rather than holding still."Madi's women's shortlist this month.
Oofos
OOriginal Sandal 1000 - Women's
$59.95 "Lovely sandal, wrong shape for a lot of feet. A toe post sits exactly where a bunion is, and it only stays on if your toes hold it. If either of those is you, take a slide instead and you'll get the same foam."
Aetrex
Women's Active Orthotics
$79.95 "Same arch shape as the memory foam one, firmer underfoot. Cork and Pro-Shox come back faster than memory foam does, which is what you want when you're covering ground rather than holding still."

We don't stock what sells. We stock what works — and every orthotic on this site was tested in-store before it went on the shelf.
"Thank you so much to the Manager of Comfort Footworks in Matthew’s NC. She went the extra mile in customer service! She hand delivered our elderly mom’s orthopedic sneakers to her nursing home room. I am in Savannah Ga and couldn’t pick up the shoes. Seniors are often a forgotten group of people. Thank you so much for treating her to this surprise."
"Tim, the owner, was so kind and patient and very helpful! My mom got a pair of OrthoFeet Nira sneakers and she was so happy!!! She’s been dealing with bursitis, tendinitis, and plantar fasciitis so we were so happy to find a local shop where she could try on a good pair of shoes. Highly recommend!!!!!"
"What a fabulous store, owned by a father and his daughter. I recently started a job in healthcare, requiring I be on my feet for 12+ hours per shift, and my feet felt broken after three days in a row. Both the owner and his daughter were so friendly and helpful, and the owner really knew his stuff! Just in the few minutes of trying on shoes that actually fit MY feet, I could already tell the difference."
We're not a call center. When you order online, you're ordering from the same small team that fits shoes in our Matthews, NC store every day.
