About Us
Why we started OhMyBoots
We kept reading the same story from parents. Their kid limped off the field after every game. Some called it growing pains. Some heard it from a coach or a school nurse. Most of them had tried rest, ice, heel cups and insoles. It helped for a while. Then the pain came back.
What most of them were never told is this: Severs is tied to growing. The heel bone grows faster than the cord at the back of the ankle can stretch. So the pain flares up with each growth spurt, and it goes away for good when the growing stops.
So we built a different kind of store. We tell you what our sleeve does and what it doesnβt. It is a thin sleeve made to wear in cleats and help a sore heel feel more comfortable. It wonβt cure Severs. Only growing up does that.
