When I have a half size shoe should I size up or down?

I work for Pedag USA. Pedag recommends 1/2 sizes order the next larger whole size. This item is not trimmable because the semi-rigid footbed covers the entire 3/4 length and width except for about a 1/4 inch at the very top.

The size is spot-on. I wear size 10 M; I bought these orthotic in 10 M women's and they are a perfect fit.

Do these inserts help if you are classified as a supinator and need arch support? Thanks!

Rose with Pedag USA: Holiday is semi-rigid and helps keep feet in correct alignment. For those with moderate alignment concerns Holidya should benefit you. If you have very high arches and a great degree of over-supination you may not benefit from a semi-rigid orthotic because your foot is already too rigid in the mid-foot. The more flexible support in our item Relax may work better. Relax also has a heel cup that provides stability. Pedag makes two items for over-supinators: Correct Plus and Correct. Over-supination with or without high arches is much less common than over-pronation. Hence, there are very few over the counter items made people with these issues.

would you recommend these for a long distance runner?

I don't run long distance, but I do run. My issues are plantar fasciitis and a neuroma, and these are very helpful. I can't run without them.
