Not entirely sure what the website you linked to has to do with shoe wedges. I wear Specialized Sport MTB shoes already. They seem to make my toes go numb

it had  thing on wedges - and specialized shoes you can get the best wedges for - http://seasidecycle.com/images/library/site/spec_varuwed194g_05_p.gif
Knee-friendly Support
Specialized shoes sport several ergonomic enhancements that add comfort and efficiency. They feature a Varus wedge (left: A) that slightly angles the forefoot to match its natural canted position. This brings the foot into full contact with the pedal and eliminates the rotational movement of the knee (knee "dive"), shin and forefoot (left: B & C). The resulting pedal stroke (left: D) is smoother and better aligned; eliminating knee pain and strain and improving power. You'll notice the difference right away.


did you get fitted for you shoe inserts?

that is part of a good fitting - very important part that is often times overlooked

I've got these shoes and I really haven't had any problems in regards to my feet going numb or sore knees. My knees have always been a bit weird, they would get really sore when I used to run XCountry.

can this whole foot wedge thing be broken off into a different thread?  more people may be interested in reading about what it is and what it does that might not find it buried here in this thread.

I agree.  When the thread "drifts" it is simple to just rename the subject box.  Lots of good conversations are brought up in here.  Giving them a title (subject line) to follow wouldn't be bad.

I, and others with those privileges, can do it, but I would like to see people take it upon themselves to change the subject line when the subject changes.
