 | I got a pair of custom orthotics several years ago that served me well. Now
they are falling apart. Does anybody know of a good place to have them
refurbished?
Thanks,

What means falling apart? If the basic structure, i.e. the form, is no
longer keeping your foot aligned, then the orthotics are cooked and you
will need to return to have another pair molded and built. I doubt the
person that made the old pair still has the old form around and frankly
I would want a new mold in case your foot shape has changed from running
with the old orthotics.
If you talking about the cover or some pieces of the external frill
there are choices. Call the Person that made them, find a local shoe
repair shop or ask at shoe(either running shoe or dress shoe) store, or
look for a pedorthist. I have a mom and pop dress shoe store that has a
pedorthist on staff.
