You usually use water when you want to break in your new shoes, but how will that effect orthopedic insoles? Will that damage the material?
You can have no insoles in while you have it submerged in hot water. then quickly dry the insides with paper towel before you wear them with the insoles. Or do you plan to wear them in the shower? Don't work to well for me, as without socks there is a bit too much room.
Plus, you know this trick only really works if you have leather boots? Personally I just tend to wear my boots - thats the best way of breaking them in. appleCORR
I've kept the threads open because people were responding but there were threads that this post could have gone in. I wish people would read the rules before they posted. I have a feeling this thread will dwindle out so I will leave it open. Next time please post in an appropriate thread please. appleCORR
Honestly, in this case I think you're just going to have to put up with discomfort and wear them. You wont really know how the boot and insole will interact until you get out and get moving. I know even in casual shoes my orthodics settle differently and interact with the upper differently with even my socks changing things. If your insoles aren't thick you'll hardly notice. Mine are a hard compound as I'm flat footed so they do not work with football boots. A soft insole should be fine from the first wear.
