Which bike shoe will accommodate orthotics? I use spd pedals because that's what I have on all my bikes. Typically mountain bike shoes and commuter shoes fit those. My current bike shoes are very stiff. I think the problem is with my other shoes and the structural problems with the bones in my feet. I don't think biking makes it worse so much as it already hurts when I set out to go biking. Most of my hiking style shoes are actually fairly flexible. I'm coming to understand that's a big problem for me. I am a shoe hound too. that's probably going to cause financial stress when I have to purchase 50 pairs to accommodate my orthotics!
