When you stand on your ALINEs they will feel different than any shoes or insoles you have ever worn. That's because your ALINEs are supporting/suspending your feet and re-establishing your natural balancing points. You'll feel support in the forward transverse arch immediately (under the 'ball" of your foot).
The muscles and tendons of your feet may require a little time to adjust to this new positioning. During your first few days on ALINE, if you feel discomfort after the first hour, simply remove the ALINEs and use the original insoles. The next day, use ALINE again. It should take just a few days to condition your feet, and once you do, you won't want to ever remove the ALINEs again.
If you feel discomfort after the first week "Pre-Launch" phase it may be due to some of the following factors.
- Your ALINE does not fit your the footwear. Remove each ALINE and place it back-to-back with the stock insole that came with the shoe. If the Aline is larger than the stock insole you should trim your ALINE to match.
- Your shoes may be laced to tightly for the new ALINEs. Take the time to re-lace your shoes and go for a several small walks. ALINEs help maintain your natural arches and your foot will naturally position higher in footwear.
- Your foot may have an inflare or bunion that is shifting your foot on your ALINEs. Simple modifications to footwear such as changing lacing or stretching will accommodate the shape of your foot. Consult with a shoe fitter or purchase footwear that allows for inflare.
- Your feet may be more sensitive than average. Restart the first week "Pre-Launch" schedule of one hour per day, increasing the time you use your ALINEs by an hour each day.
- Try your ALINEs in different shoes. Some shoes have dramatic arch and heel lifts that may interfere with the alignment of your ALINEs.
- Your socks may be too thick or wrinkled under your foot. Your ALINEs are made from materials textured to resist lateral shearing and improve performance. Remove sock wrinkles and unlace your footwear to insert your foot. Baby powder is recommended for very tight athletic footwear.
- Your foot may have an undiagnosed medical condition or be too rigid for an arch support. If the discomfort persists you should refer to your medical professional.
