Can I wear socks, orthotics, or insoles with these shoes?
Our footwear is created to promote natural foot function without added arch support, helping muscles strengthen gradually. Still, thin and flexible orthotics can be used temporarily during the transition. Many people with flat arches, plantar fasciitis, or previous injuries reduce orthotic use over time. Wearing socks is a personal preference it doesn’t affect the health benefits, only the feel.
