How long did it take you to “break in” your Upstep orthotics?
Asked 3 years ago
It’s been 3 weeks and it’s been very painful. Kind of feels worse. Do I have the wrong orthotics or are they just not broken in yet? How long should it take?

Orthotics take time to get used to and it takes some people longer than others to break in new orthotics. Start by wearing them for short periods of time, and make sure your orthotics are correctly inserted in your shoes. If after a few weeks you're still not comfortable, contact Upstep and they'll give you a redo or refund your money.

To get used to orthotics, your body might need time. Ideally, it takes around 1-2 weeks to get used to it, so keep the patience for a couple of weeks. Once you adjust to it, it should be very comfortable to wear. However, if you are still not satisfied with it. then get in touch with Upstep, and they will provide the necessary help.
