“Instantly it felt like walking on a cloud”
I was attending a nursing conference in Las Vegas and walking miles daily. My feet were killing me. I skipped a speaker to find comfortable shoes and tried Aetrex sandals. Instantly it felt like walking on a cloud. I told other nurses and they went to buy them too. That was my first pair — and now they are my go-to brand.

"I do not need a new knee! All I needed were the right shoes!"
This time last year I thought I would need a new knee. My mobility was so compromised. Then to top it off, I developed plantar fasciitis! I remembered the Aetrex shoes that I had worn to treat that in the past, so I dug them out and had been wearing them for about three days when I noticed that the pain in my knee had decreased. The longer I wore the shoes, the better it felt! I no longer need a new knee. I only needed the right shoes.I now only wear orthotic shoes that stabilize my heel and my knee is no longer an issue. My mobility is back to normal and so is my love for life.

“Aetrex inserts allow me to enjoy a much closer to normal life”
I retired after 22 years of military service. I attempted to keep doing a lot of the training I used to do while in the military, but found that my knees and feet acted too much to continue. Even standing for extensive periods of time caused extreme pain. The military medical system finally sent me to a physical therapist who provided me with Aetrex inserts for my shoes and boots. What a world of difference! Aetrex inserts allow me to enjoy a much closer to normal life by correcting my foot posture, which helps with my knee and my lower back pain. Thank you for an excellent product!
