My trusty old walking boots finally broke after many years, so I went to buy some new ones. I spent a whole hour at the shop with a very helpful guy who let me try on loads of pairs. Went out for a muddy walk with my new boots and realised they weren't quite right for me, because I have a slightly flat foot which isn't being supported. My old boots were tighter and held everything in.
Considering these boots were expensive and I can't take them back to the shop as I've worn them, is there some kind of specialist insole with arch support I could add? Preferably not too bulky so they don't take up loads of room inside the boot. But I don't want to have specialist orthotics or anything, just normal arch support if that makes sense.
Or any other ideas how I could rescue the situation?
