Dr. Scholl’s Custom Fit Orthotic Inserts Review and Giveaway

As a nurse, I know all about tired and achy feet. I can recall times when I thought I would never feel normal again and would even start walking strange because my feet were so worn out. As a mom that works part-time, this is still the case. My feet are sore and tired often. In order to try to fix that, I was sent a pair of Dr. Scholl’s Custom Fit Orthotic Inserts.

Sadly, summer has come very early here in Missouri. We have literally had no spring weather and I have been wearing summer shoes for several weeks. I did get to try the Dr. Scholl’s Custom Fit Orthotic Inserts though and my experience was a good one. I was a bit uneasy with them at first because of the depth of them. It seemed that my shoe wasn’t really tall enough to keep the insert and my foot inside. I was able to get past that though once I felt the difference they made.

I have tried several different inserts over the years yearning for comfort when I walk. The Custom Inserts really do give me that. They are so comfortable and really do target the areas I need the most help. In case you are unaware, you go to the store and get custom fitted (find a store near you). The kiosk quickly tells you what inserts you need and you can walk away that day with them. Simply place the insert at the back of your shoe and you are set.

I think these would be super for anyone that is on their feet for extended periods of time. Another use I think it would be greatly beneficial is for anyone that walks or jogs. These inserts give your foot the support it needs… which in turn helps your entire body and posture. I like the inserts and look forward to fall and winter months when I can use them more often!

If you would like to give the Dr. Scholl’s Custom Fit Orthotic Inserts a try, be sure to print this $7.50 Dr. Scholl’s rebate. You may wonder if the inserts are worth the expense (they are more costly than other one-size-fits-all inserts) and my advice is to give it a try. They are made for you (foot pressure points and arch type specifically).

Dr. Scholl’s has kindly offered to give a set of Custom Fit Orthotic Inserts to one of you! Please keep in mind that if you enter and win, you will need to go to a local store and get your Custom Fit results to me within 48 hours!
