Road or Mountian bike shoes

[coyote]

I'm real big on throwing a pair of metatarsal arch buttons and medial forefoot wedges onto a pair of Superfeet and sticking them into your bike shoes to take care of hot-foot/numbness.

Worked for me.

Knott, do you know, should I put the medial forefoot wedges in both shoes or just the one that is problematic? Also, is it better to get the Superfeet w/ the metatarsal bumps or the get the biking Superfeet and add the buttons?

I do have general overall problems. I've got a curvature of my spine. My hips are not even close to level. I think it is now causing sciatic (sp?) nerve problems which may have caused plantuer fastaca (sp?). Beyond that, I've got wide feet that have spent too much time in small shoes and if that was not enough....crappy shoes on too hard of a surface most of my adult life.

I wore orthodics for about year for the plantuer fastaca (sp?). That was about a year ago. I've been doing yoga and weight lifting. The combo seems to have arrested my sciatic nerve problems and the pf has worked its way out too.

So, having just written that...I see my mission this weekend is to find those Superfeet insoles, buttons and wedges.

Thanks all!
