Study start date: January 1, 2008

Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

Patients included in the study were randomized into 3 different groups. Group number 1 and 2 got custom made insoles out of EVA (Ethyl Vinyl Acetate) with different hardness 35 and 55 shore respectively. Group nr 3 got prefabricated insole with support of the medial arch and in the forefoot. The top layer was covered with a 2 mm cushioned material, 25 shore, made out of microcellular urethane. All patients were recommended to wear good walking shoes with a semi rigid outer sole and stable heel counter. One and the same technician made the casting and fabricated the insoles as well as delivered the devices. Deliverance occured 2-3 weeks after the first visit. At deliverance base line measurement was assessed.
