Your Integrated Solution® is something unique to your feet and no one else's.  It starts with a comprehensive foot screening, assessment and gait analysis.  Based upon that information, the sizing and fitting of shoes must be undertaken as a system.  Starting with an engineered, padded sock enveloping the foot, adding a commercial insert or a custom orthotic if needed and, finally, surrounding those components with a well-designed, supportive shoe or boot that is made for its intended use AND is appropriate for your unique foot shape, size and other characteristics  - then you have a footwear SYSTEM - YOUR personal and unique Integrated Solution®.
