About Comfort Walk Shoes & Orthotics
Feet take a beating on the west side, where a walk home from almost anywhere involves a climb and the summer trails around Rose Valley are more gravel than pavement. Add a job spent standing on concrete and the gap between shoes that fit and shoes that merely go on becomes obvious by the middle of the afternoon.
Shops that put footwear and orthotics under one roof sit at the join between retail and foot care. Part of the work is stock, in widths and depths a general clothing store rarely bothers with. Part of it is measurement: length, width, arch height, how the heel is held, and the ordinary fact that one foot usually runs a little larger than the other. Orthotic devices add requirements of their own, because a shoe has to have the volume and the removable footbed to take one without crowding the toes. How much of that is handled in house, and what a shop likes to see from a referring clinician, differs from one place to the next, so it is worth describing your situation when you get in touch rather than arriving and hoping.
Comfort Walk Shoes and Orthotics is at 2484 Main Street in Westbank, on the older commercial spine of the west side rather than out among the highway plazas. Several other businesses share the same address, so one parking spot can cover more than one errand, which counts for something on a Saturday when the bridge traffic has already eaten half the morning. Coming down from Glenrosa or Smith Creek, it folds easily into a wider trip through the strip.
