Flat Cookie Cutter Carbon Fiber Plate Insert Made My Foot Numb!

1/20/17

Hello Clyde - I just got diagnosed with hallux limitus, so I'm trying to figure all this stuff out. We are heading to Disneyworld at the end of Feb, so I hope your RTL inserts will help. I tried the flat carbon insert and it made the bottom of my foot feel numb even though it was on top of another insole. Aimee/ San Francisco

Hi Aimee - Flat, rigid and cookie cutter carbon fiber plates are great for pediatric toe walkers. Not very good for adults - too thick, rigid, and restrictive. A flat carbon fiber plate makes the entire shoe stiff creating an awkward and unnatural gait for the user. Custom made X1 Blades are thin & light, strategically padded and biomechanically strengthened and shaped. An X1 Blade will relieve your pain while walking without affecting your natural stride, and it will not make your foot numb! You shouldn't even know it is in your shoe. Clyde

Comments or Questions: Clyde, my wife is a competitive ballroom dancer.  She recently has been having pain in her big right toe.  She feels this has been coming on for about three years but has only become unbearable within this last year.  Xrays showed no fractures or spurs but her doctor did say it showed arthritis.  Her nephew, a PT, prescribed a rigid carbon plate from Wrymark in St. Louis.  This has been working fairly well, but limits some of her activity with dancing.  I find your products intriguing and wonder which models you would recommend.  As I understand it, the product is fully refundable less shipping if it doesn't work when trying on "in the house".  Am I correct on this?  In addition, do your inserts require the use of another insole on top of the plate?  If so, are there some you recommend that take up very little room?  Thank you, John

Hi John - Most of my dancers get the Runner model and it fits under the shoes insole. The Wrymark carbon fiber plate , like all carbon fiber plates, makes the entire shoe rigid and limits normal foot motion.  Rigid carbon fiber plates are great for getting pediatric toe walkers into a more natural gait, but too limiting for high activity users as your wife has found. 
My X1 Blade "stiff-flex design" is only rigid where it needs to be rigid - under a users great toe thus enabling normal foot and ankle motion during activity.  My X1 Blade has a 100% money back guarantee. Thanks for asking. Clyde

Comments or Questions: Hello, I purchased the X1 Blade inserts for big toe arthritis and it changed my life! I am now able to resume all activities - so a big thanks! However, my husband has mild osteoarthritis of the talonavicular joint and first MTP and he is having pain in the right foot that is causing him fits. Can you advise what plate is best for him? Thank you so much!

Julie M./ Bloomington, IN


Hi Julie - glad to hear my Blades are working for you. I suggest my Shoe Stiffner for mid-foot sprains and arthritis Shoe Stiffner model for your husband. Clyde

Thank you so much for your quick response!  I will order for him today.

My X1 Blades were recommended to me by Dr. Weidenbenner from Bloomington Bone and Joint and they have really given me my life back - can't thank you enough!
