: Anybody know why an orthopedic shoe was used? Does Harrison have foot problems? Steve

The only thing that really makes them orthopedic is the steel shank. Heavy duty boots used to all be made that way - at least the good ones. The shank adds a degree of support that I really notice. Ever noticed how much support you get from a brand new pair of running shoes? That support only lasts for a few months. By that time, they are just another pair of sneakers. The #405's support lasts. They are built like a tank - and weigh as much as one. You'll never put anything better on your feet, though.

Cheers!
