  1. This shop in Huntsville, Ontario seems to carry them all and will ship to the US. They have an 800 number that you can call if you want to talk to them.
  2. I would have sent either the negative or a positive; whichever they preferred. I thought about ordering one of these kits and sending the results to them since it was something I can do at home relatively cheap: http://accu-cast.us/lifecasting-kits/foot-casting/ I just had a negative casting done by a podiatrist who is the only podiatrist in Alabama that has any experience making skate orthotics AFAIK to get some orthotics made for my Nexus skates so I'm sure I could get me hands on the negatives, if needed. I am adamant about them inspecting and trying to copy my orthotics into the foot bed of the skate due to how bad my supination is and I would rather be supported by the carbon fiber material that they use than the standard materials that are used building orthotics that will break down for me after 6-12 months.
  3. Do one or both of the "Big 2" do this if I provided foot molds and orthotics? Ideally I would like the boot to not need a third party orthotic and have the orthotic built in, made of carbon fiber or whatever other super duper material that they can use that won't break down due to my weight. I would also like to have the outside of my right boot reinforced to compensate for the amount of pressure I put on that part of my foot along with my weight.
  4. I was just in St. Louis today and was hoping to get fitted for True skates but the scanner wasn't set up yet at the store that received one. I contacted True a week or so ago and asked if I could ship to Winnipeg molds of my feet and old pair of my orthotics to see in lieu of a foot scan so they can account for my supination and they said no, I could send it foot traces and measurements if I can't get scanned. Well, I'm not dropping four figures on skates that don't fit me correctly..
  5. You may have supination in that foot. If the super feet don't work long term, you may have to see an orthodist or podiatrist to get custom orthotics made. I have it really bad in my right foot and have the same symptoms as you.
