Custom orthotics are built to support your feet and keep you comfortable day after day. But since they spend all that time inside your shoes, it’s no surprise that they don’t stay spotless forever. Sweat, dust, and general wear can leave them looking (and sometimes smelling) less than fresh. The good news? You absolutely can clean your orthotics without affecting how well they work, as long as you use the right methods.
Dealing with sweaty feet can be uncomfortable, embarrassing, and even lead to other foot issues if left untreated. Sweaty feet, also known as plantar hyperhidrosis, occurs when the sweat glands in your feet produce excessive moisture. For some, it’s a mild annoyance, while others may experience a constant damp feeling, leading to skin irritation, unpleasant odour, and even infections. Understanding the causes and solutions for this condition can help you stay comfortable and protect your feet.

Foot pain is more common than you might think—and it often shows up in your heel, the ball of your foot, or around your toes. These small areas bear a lot of pressure every day. When something’s off, even just standing or walking around the house can become painful. The good news? With the right combination of custom orthotics and properly fitted shoes, you can find relief and help prevent things from getting worse.
When you think about supportive footwear, you usually think of shoes you put on when leaving your house to engage in activities. However, for many people, the hours spent barefoot or in socks at home quietly add up and can have a bigger impact on the lower extremities than expected.
