can these be worn as regular shoes

No these shoes have special soles designed for the bowling alley. They are a felt like material under the ball of the foot that slides over the wood floors in bowling. There is also no real "tread" that you would see in a normal tennis shoe. I think the felt portion would wear our very quickly walking on pavement etc. That being said there is nothing really stopping you from wearing them as normal shoes. Mine are fairly stiff though, so I can't imagine them being comfortable for much walking. As others have said, if you do wear them as normal shoes.

As long as you never plan on using them for bowling. You would ruin the glide pads on the sole.

Yes they can. They do take up a little space in your shoes of course but they work well. I find them to be quite comfortable and they help.

Probably not. I bought them for my daughter and they did not stay on her feet very long. Unfortunately, I cannot suggest you buy them for that reason.

I would say you can, I wear it with my high top sneakers while playing ball. It was a matter of breaking it in and after that you forget it's there. I would imagine your boots have been broken in so that'll alleviate that part. I would recommend wearing the brace and boots around the house to get things going. It is a thin brace with great support, I would suggest you go with this over any other brand as I did my homework and shopped around. Good luck!

Hello Jean, If you are referring to the inserts put in by the shoe manufacturer, no. But if you already have a pair of store purchased inserts then yes.

I would imagine so, when I used them they were way to thick and I couldnt' get my heal in the shoe

That I dont know, since I used them while barefoot. Probably will, if the shoes are low profile like soccer shoes not bulky basketball like shoes.

I think the pedals are a little too small for normal shoes but the pedals are still flat do I don't see why not. Matter of personal preference I suppose!!!

I use them in regular shoes. It does make the shoe fit a little tighter - maybe a half size difference. Hope that helps.

I haven't worn mine for a while, but when I was wearing it, I always wore sandals (flip-flops, or what we called zories when I was growing up). I don't think you would be able to wear a conventional shoe while wearing this splint.

No they can not be worn with shoes. They are only good just sitting around watching TV. I tried wearing them to bed. But they started to hurt my feet. Found out they cut off the blood flow to my toes. The Bunion Booty does a better job but is pricey. These are good for women to paint their toe nails.

No. Best read the reviews for the best idea of size. Just like at the shoe store... the sizes of shoes are just general descriptions and vary from brand to brand and never match up with actual shoe size measurements.

"Normal shoes" as in street shoes/tennis shoes/running shoes etc? No, not really a good idea, and I personally would really have to say "No." these are "clip in" style pedals that are for bike shoes with road cleats (specifically SPD-SL road cleats)... if you want to ride with "normal shoes" you really should use a pedal with toe clips such as the Avenir Ultralight Pedals with Toe Clips and Straps Avenir Ultralight Pedals with Toe Clips and Straps, Black/Silver, 9/16 Inch Axle

Absolutely! They were for my husband following an extended illness. He has used them both with and without shoes and prefers them barefoot. The little nobs on them help stimulate circulation in the feet. Hope this helps.

I think you could. I wear mine every day in my work shoes. They are small and compact and comfortable. I find them very effective in relieving my arch pain

Yes you can. I've worn them with my trainers as well as formal shoes. They are a little uncomfortable in formal shoes but offers very good support.

I wear mine in steel toed shoes, they aren't actual boots they are the sneaker style but they work just fine in those. I would imagine they would work as long as they fit your shoe size.
