How to raise the height of your arch support

[@radchander]

Sir, Thank you so much. How many would give away their professional tips/secrets. You are one of a kind. Wish you the very Best in your endeavors...

[@RedDragonProtection]

I actually started doing this using rubber. It's so much better and the foot pain is going away. I've been installing on the bottom of the insoles. I added a metatarsal pad also. Do you feel the felt would be better than the rubber?

[@mysticalpathmysticalpath602]

Are you still using the same adhesive aetna roll? Many negative reviews past 2 years no longer like they used ro make it. Thank you for sharing all the good info 😊

[@frugalfoot4973]

I've had no problems at all with any of my rolls.

[@culluts2755]

I haven't tried this yet but it looks like it will work for me! Thanks for sharing!😁

[@frugalfoot4973]

Great! I hope it helps. Thanks for the shout out.

[@mintumehra6162]

White sheet names pls?

[@mariaf8090]

Could you make a video where you apply a felt pad adhesive underneath the insole?

[@frugalfoot4973]

I'll try to do it this week. It has been on my bucket list. Thanks for the suggestion.

Hi, this is a great video. I have been waring arch supports for over 50 years, every thing from hard leather to stainless steel with a leather cover. But I had two pr. of red plastic ones made in Baltimore Md. about 30 years ago and they were the best out of probably eight to ten different ones. I can’t remember who the Dr. was it’s been so long ago. My question is, one pr. Has broken, cracked in half, and I was wondering if you new of some type of liquid or other to use to make a mold to make another pr? I owned a Hardware store for 50 years so I can make anything if I have the right materials to work with. Thanks for your help. Bill

[@frugalfoot4973]

Bill: Your insight is very accurate. When I make my video series on custom orthotics your question will be answered. It isn't that simple. Stay tuned.

[@thesupremechickenhed]

Omg this was Awesome. I'm going to try this out asap

[@crpnskie]

Excellent video.

[@frugalfoot4973]

Thank you. Much appreciated.

[@gjl.online]

Thanks so much for this. Here I was trying to work out how to 3D print custom insoles. Turns out I just need some felt. Made these yesterday and they've transformed the new boots I bought from unwearable to comfortable. Thanks!

[@frugalfoot4973]

Thanks for your comment. 3D printed inserts would be so convenient... the problem is the calibration that is needed for proper rigidity/flexibility.

[@gjl.online]

@@frugalfoot4973 So it seems! I'm glad I found this channel instead. Thanks again 😸

[@sl2608]

This is great, I want to try it. Just one question. Does the felt material crush down when you stand on it or does it maintain the support and lift for the arch? Would molefoam also work? Thanks, Dr. Dave.

[@frugalfoot4973]

It will crush down but you can always build it up to compensate. If mole foam is the same as mole skin then I would say you'll have to use quite a bit of the product to get the same effect. Thanks for your comment.

[@sl2608]

@@frugalfoot4973 Thanks very much.

[@swiss6253]

I don't really like this much. I tested layer by layer, and when I actually started feeling it on my arch, it kind of just felt like a rock in my shoe. Just didn't feel very natural. Although, I do get used to it at work and by the end of the day feels ok. I have felt some harsh stretches in my arch which I never do, which doesn't make much sense to me. I did find that the adhesive felt is quite nice to 'shingle' the inside of your shoe around steel toe. They also serve a great purpose of snugging up the boot/shoe which will increase comfort.

[@TheRoadLessChosen]

Great way to describe that pain

[@robd1859]

I cannot find good arch supports anywhere I shop. And I live in excruciating pain

Superb video! What should I type exactly to find quarter inch adhesive felt I tried that in eBay but I didn’t get this product or anything similar, just pads or refrigerator felt which was a different size I’m in the UK do you have any way you can recommend I can get it from and what I might try and search for Thank you so much for the video

[@frugalfoot4973]

Thank you for your kind comment. I have no idea where you will find it in the UK. But I did leave a link to the U.S. Amazon link below the video. Try to copy and paste the title of the product into a Google engine and see if there are any stores in your area where you can get it. Otherwise ask your pharmacist or local apothecary if they can order you some. They are easily available in medical supply catalogs. Perhaps even a medical supply store that sells braces or fracture boots. All the best.

Hi my daughter has also flat foot problem kindly tell me can I make arch in any shoe for her

[@frugalfoot4973]

Hadiya - I don't understand your question.

[@malissaperkins8316]

Thank you!

[@sl2608]

Can it be placed UNDER the orthotic rather than on top?

[@frugalfoot4973]

It is not as effective.

[@sl2608]

@@frugalfoot4973 Ok, thank you. Are the Powerstep Pinnacle High Arch insoles any good? I'm dealing with Peroneal Tendonitis, Insertional Achilles Tendonitis, plantar fasciitis and probably Cuboid Syndrome. I was advised to get the Powerstep High Arch orthotics and either the New Balance 928 or 990.

So, what you do on one foot, you have to do on the other as well, or else it will mess up you equilibrium.

[@frugalfoot4973]

On the other hand it might actually bring both feet into "equilibrium". Or at least closer to it.

[@gregl2249]
