Orthotics can be a crucial addition to your Camino packing list for providing extra support and comfort during long walks. These custom or over-the-counter insoles help correct foot alignment, distribute weight more evenly, and reduce strain on your feet, ankles, and knees. Before embarking on your journey, consult with a podiatrist to determine if orthotics are right for you and to get a custom fitting if necessary. Properly fitted orthotics can help prevent foot pain and injuries, ensuring you remain comfortable and able to enjoy your Camino experience to the fullest. Be sure to break them in before your trip to ensure they fit well and provide the desired support. Beware that custom orthotics may break from fatigue. Try to start with a newer pair.
