PowerStep Morton’s Extension | Orthotic Insoles for Bunions, Sesamoiditis and Toe Pain

Can't walk without the Morton's Extension Insoles

I have worn PowerStep insoles for several years, but when I needed to have a carbon fiber insert because of bunions and no cartilage, I was thrilled to see that PowerStep actually makes an insole with a carbon fiber insert in the PowerStep insole I have been used to wearing! It is a miracle that will keep me from having surgery! There are other carbon fiber insoles on the market, but you would need an additional cushioned insole on top of that which is far too bulky for even a wide pair of athletic footwear. The PowerStep Mortons Extension fits like a normal insole and it has been life-changing for me!!

I use two different kinds!

I originally bought the insoles for plantar fasciitis. I love them! I have a bunion on my left foot, so I ended up ordering another pair for bunions. Now, I wear the bunion insole in my left shoe, and the plantar fasciitis insole in my right. So much pain relief!!!

Dont work with current shoes.

They are nice well made inserts but dont work well with my current shoes which are Altra's. I bought these on the recommendation of my podiatrist after being diagnosed with a painful bunion. The problem with them is they are too thick and my toes are rubbing on the top fabric of the front of the shoe making the problem even worse. I also tried them in a pair of Brooks running shoes with the same result. So will shelve these for now and will bring them with me next time I purchase new shoes and see if there is anything that would work with these. I will not purchase anymore due to the poor fit.
