According to LinkedIn, there are more than 175 Good Feet Store locations in the U.S. and internationally, offering arch supports manufactured in Carlsbad, California, and supplied exclusively to Good Feet's retail locations.

Orthotics — from the Greek "ortho", meaning "to straighten, to align" — is a medical specialty focusing on the use of externally applied devices to — in the case of lower limbs — help the function of the foot, ankle joint, knee joint, lower leg, thigh or the hip joint.

Cape Girardea's Good Feet Store has been open seven days a week since May.
