I went to footlocker and I can't really find a good shoe

My feet are spacing out a lot ugh :(

I wear my shoes too loose I guess and/or I walk around bare feet too much?


Should I just wear ok/tight shoes to push my foot back?:D

podiatrists can help you get orthotics for your shoes so you can walk more betterer.

i think they can do gait analysis too.

Im 17 and I wear a 14 wide shoe. I recently went to a podiatrist to get my ingrown toenails removed from both sides of both big toes. I think that was due in part to both the way I cut them (biggest mistake EVER) and from wearing tight shoes. The podiatrist I went to said New Balance was the best bet for me for having wide and big feet.

My middle son (almost 15) has flat feet and wears a size 14. Groan...if his feet get any bigger, I'm going to have a LOT of trouble finding shoes for him. We may be cutting the toes out of the 14s...lol...j/k.
