    Re: Foot skin issues, not nice at all (graphic images included)

    HI again. I think the two socks is not the issue so don't worry about any fancy darning and stitching

    I mention the sorbothane as they make inserts without any additional arch support, just a thin layer to assist absorb the impact and perhaps reduce the sliding. In my opinion that would be better than the others for that specific issue. The first suggestion is more of an orthotic to assist stabilize the arch and reduce some perhaps excessive pronation. With all the running around (excuse the pun) an investment in a one-off biomechanical assessment from a good sports physiotherapist would be well worth the investment.

    Re: Foot skin issues, not nice at all (graphic images included)

    Thanks for the reply's bob.

    I wasn't looking forward to getting out the stitching kit anyway so that's good news

    Is the sorbothane insole I showed in my last post (here) appropriate or should I go for there all over full strike insole seen here.

    Could you give me some idea of how much I should expect to pay for a biomechanical assessment and where would be the best place to look for one?

    Really want to get this sorted before I start playing any sport again.

    Thanks again.
