Custom Comfort, Superior Support
Custom Footbeds
What do footbeds do for you? They align your feet in relationship to the surface underneath so you are properly standing using your skeleton. In the photograph below on the left notice how the tendons are all fired up trying to hold the feet in a stable position. The photo on the right shows the same feet on new footbeds, and the tendons are relaxed. The bones of the skeleton are aligned properly and the tendons are relaxed, not strained to support everything. This means more time riding or skiing with less fatigue and sore spots.
The photo on the above shows the same feet on new footbeds. Notice how the line on the heel is now perpendicular to the platform. The ankles are also more aligned and less likely to get rubbed and sore. This skier will ski better just by being more comfortable!

Foot Beds
The photos show alignment from the rear. The left photo shows severe pronation. Notice how the lines on the heels are not perpendicular to the platform. The ankles are sticking out farther than any other parts of the foot. These are sore ankles! This skier will use a lot of muscular tension to hold the ankle away from the hard inner boot shell.
You need to have custom footbeds in your ski boots! We use the Insta-Print casting system exclusively to make our ski and snowboard footbeds. The patented casting tray makes a perfect footbed every time. We cast your feet with you seated, semi-weight bearing. This process allows us to control the foot and in turn the footbed.
The resultant footbed not only looks great but feels great as well, shaping not only to the natural contours of your feet but to the contours of the particular boot they are going into. We have board certified pedorthists on staff to ensure that the footbeds we make are balanced properly for each individual. All our footbeds are posted!

Our Customers Love Us
“Bill was great! He is clearly an expert at his craft. He quickly identified what my issues were, found me a pair of boots and made some custom inserts and accommodations. The performance on the hill was fantastic! I wish I had seen him years ago. Highest recommendation!”
“Majorly impressed with GMOL. Vastly superior in knowledge compared to other boot fitters I’ve been to. I need a huge amount of work to get in ski boots. Bill taught me things I never knew about my own feet. I plan on sending all my friends and family to GMOL.”
“Bill Haight is Green Mountain Orthotic Lab, and he’s the best!
Best ski boot fitting in the northeast — highly recommended — Top 15 bootfitter in the country per SKI Magazine!
Today we got me a new pair of boots with custom footbeds and canting and Mark got custom footbeds and canting on the boots he bought last season. Bill worked with us for several hours and we were able to go out and ski throughout the process so that we knew things were getting dialed in just right. Can’t say enough good things! Make an appointment!“
“Made an appointment in the fall for custom foot beds. After 20 days on snow so far I couldn’t be happier with Bill’s work, how its improved my skiing and the fit and comfort of my boots, and pushed me to the next level. I learned a lot about my feet, my skiing equipment needs, what will and what won’t work for me, and why my feet have been cold for the last two decades. You will learn things too. I’m an expert level skier but my boots have always been… off. Now they are not. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.”
