Insoles for shoes

From what I can tell, it's a very personal thing. You have to figure out what works best for you. I've got inserts from a podiatrist that have worked very well for me, and I'm not planning to switch any time soon, but others find that the off-the-shelf things work fine.

For shin splints, I recommend the exercises I have used to great effect. Simply walk around the house on your heels with your toes up . Not too much at first, but gradually doing more and more. Makes a huge difference.
