We're not podiatrists. We're the people who got mad enough to fix it.
We did everything we were told - $500 orthotics, $160 “cloud” shoes, barefoot shoes - and ended up worse and broke. So we stopped trusting the people selling shoes and started reading. Buried in the record: Dr. Phil Hoffmann's 1905 study, proving feet stay healthy until footwear “compresses and splints” them. The raised heel? 1600s cavalry gear. The pointed toe? Medieval vanity. A 400-year-old design flaw - and nobody had built the fix for the concrete age. So we did.
