Sock For Fixing Foot – Advanced Modification System

Oren Director/Founder of the FitSystem by Phil Oren® has developed an Advanced Modification System for modifying footwear for people that have badly deformed feet. He developed this system as a result of his own badly deformed feet.

The FitSystem by Phil Oren® just trained personnel from Alpine Shop, St Louis, MO; Travel Country, Altamonte Springs; FL, Summit Hut, Tucson, AZ; Whistle Workwear, Tacoma, WA; Lowa Rep in Southern CA; Montrail Rep in Southern CA; Kirham’s, Salt Lake City, UT; and Foot of the Bighorns, Sheridan, WY

Oren has been working on the System for 3 years and feels it will be launched in Spring of 2004 with more dealers.

The dealers will be trained on how to cast customer’s feet with a pair of STS polyester resin impregnated socks, the resin is activated with water and sets up within 3-5 minutes. With special scissors it is then cut off and sent to the FitSystem®. They pour a special hard type urethane catalytic material that sets up hard making a perfect replica of their feet. The dealer then heats up the footwear and with a hydraulic pump pushes the mold into the footwear to match the deformed feet and then heats up the footwear to remold the materials to the form of the customer’s feet. This System works on all types of footwear: hiking, working, golf, running, dress, etc, etc.

If the person needs the footwear to be modified Roberto La Rosa (FootWerks) will be able to use the molds to adapt the boots for the customer. The response from people that have had it done to their footwear has been great.

The FitSystem® modification technique is still in it embryonic state. The costs will be set at a later date, however Oren wants dealers to start making molds for their customers to see what a great job the cast do. This is a program that is being implemented by the above dealers. The program will be expanded as more dealers are trained in the future.
