Service Review – Rebel Sport Footwear Section – 1 Star
When I run, I wear custom-made orthotics to handle some pretty serious pronation, so it can be tough to find the right shoe. The assistant at Rebel was sure that if I’d be wearing the orthotics, I’d need the shoes with the strongest rolling support, avoiding natural, cushioning shoes. This surprised me, so I checked with a podiatrist. His answer was the exact opposite – the orthotic provides the support, so just cushioning shoes are best. I don’t expect the staff to have all the answers, but if they’re not sure, they should say so – this is where injuries come from.
