What makes a skateboarding shoe orthotic friendly? To find an orthotic firendly skateboarding shoe, you need a shoe that has a removable insole. Because skateboarding shoes have very little depth it is important to concentrate on getting skateboarding shoes that feature removable insoles. Below I have listed what I believe to be orthotic friendly skateboarding shoes:
SeaVees Hermosa Plimsoil Core– This is one of the few skateboarding shoes that features a removable footbed, which is a must when looking for skateboarding shoes that will accomodate an orthotic.
Emerica Trabodour– This skateboarding also has the advantage of having depth as well as a removable insole.
Nike Ruckus 2 LR– This is one of the few name brand skateboarding shoes that feature a removable insole
