i don't think they would mind if you took a little bit off the edges wit hsome scissors. Your gunner be wearin them alot so they got to fit.

Have any of you guys tried wearing them in the bath ? harder than it sounds !

sorbothane insoles reduce impact caused by running etc, you can buy them at good sport shops or outdoor shops for about £18 for double strike(full foot ). they are expensive but good and they last!

I asked the careers office if you can use them and u can
