if you're as bad as I was then there's no other option but surgery. I had each foot done ajacent years, 14 and 15. Sure you'll be on crutches for 3 months but after you're out it's fuckawesome, you can walk!
The surgery goes something like this: 1. cut out v shaped chunk of bone 2. staple remaining bone together, forming an arch 3. lengthen achilles tendon by slight nicks in it. The tendon is shorter if you have flat feet. 4. put a screw in the outside part of your ankle to force a better arch.
of course, this is if you're having trouble walking when you're not anywhere near overweight, and older than 5 where orthotics won't fix your now older bone structure.
