Excessive foot pronation or rolling-in increases the amount of stress on the big toe joint as the heel is lifted off of the gournd during propulsion. It is this abnormal stress on the big toe joint that can lead to the development of arthritis deformities.

Decreasing foot pronation at midstance with a supportive shoe and orthotic relieves stress on the big toe joint. For hallux rigidus a stiffer sole with a rocker sole construction decreases the bending stress on the joint.

SLO Motion Shoes condition specific orthotics paired with adequate shoes will help offload the big toe joint and reduce discomfort.
