Orthotic Benefits
- Antimicrobial/Anti-Shear Nylon Top Cover

- The heel cup provides excellent fat pad containment and stability to the calcaneous, helping to maintain the lower kinetic chain in its neutral position.
- Offers unique flex-to-firm support which allows normal foot function while decelerating excessive and undesirable motion.

- Plantar Fascitis

Functional Support For Proper Alignment
Dynamic Alignment
The anatomical design of 1st Step achieves Dynamic Alignment™. Dynamic Alignment™ is achieved when the joints are properly aligned during gait, with the foot, ankle, knee and hip functioning together in the most optimal position.
1st Step orthotics are designed to support the medial longitudinal arch and to control the entire foot while it changes function throughout the gait cycle.
