Bio
Edit

I have been in the shoe business since 2005. Lucky Feet Shoes started as one store and we have now expanded into 13 cities throughout Southern California. For numerous years, I was a Board Certified Pedorthist and helped people with Diabetes and others that had numerous foot problems by outfitting them with the appropriate footwear and arch supports. Many times, I would have to modify the shoes and/or inserts to help accommodate their foot issues. I understand how important people's feet are and how to help them improve their quality of your life. Your feet are your base. Take care of them and they will take care of you. Remember, you can replace many parts of your body but you only have two feet. Treat them well!

    Jerick highlights the need for "arch support, cushioning, durability, breathability, and slip resistance" in work shoes. He suggests HOKA, Brooks, Dansko, New Balance, and Alegria for their comfort. Running shoes can work if they offer "lateral support and slip resistance." Replace shoes regularly and consider insoles for added comfort.
  • Expert Tips: What Makes New Balance a Top Walking Shoe Choice
    Jerick highlights the importance of "support, cushioning, and fit" in walking shoes. New Balance offers a wide range of widths, firm midsoles, and stability features like rollbar technology. Durable outsoles ensure longevity, crucial for daily walkers. Jerick advises, "Fit, of course, is everything," emphasizing proper measurement and matching the shoe to your arch type and walking style.
  • Expert Tips for Choosing the Best Trail Running Shoes
    Jerick emphasizes focusing on "traction, support, and fit." A good outsole grips trails, while a cushioned midsole absorbs impact. Durability is crucial for tough terrains. Trail shoes are lighter than hiking shoes. Proper fit prevents blisters and instability. Jerick advises getting feet measured and considering custom orthotics for optimal comfort and performance.
