Arch Support Sneakers & Athletic Shoes

Orthofeet® orthopedic shoes for women and men are designed with medical-grade orthotic insoles that feature anatomical arch support, which can be customized for a perfect high arch fit.

Our shoes come with an arch booster, which can be added under the insole to increase the support for those with flat feet or overpronation.

The shoe support prevents the foot from rolling inwards, improving foot and body alignment, and helping alleviate foot and arch pain.

A supportive shoe is designed to provide stability, cushioning and proper alignment to the feet. It helps maintain the natural arches of the foot and promotes overall foot and leg comfort.

Supportive shoes typically have built-in arch support, cushioning that provides shock absorption during walking or running, stability features to prevent excessive foot and ankle movement, and breathable materials that help keep the feet cool and dry.

The primary goal of footwear with arch support is to address excessive pronation, which can impact foot function and contribute to foot and heel pain. By supporting the arch, pressure on the heel and ball of the foot is effectively reduced as a significant portion of the body weight is transferred to the arch.

In shoes lacking proper arch support, the arch area fails to contribute to the even distribution of pressure across the foot. Excessive pronation leads to internal rotation of the leg, placing stress on the knee, hip and lower back.

Arch support shoes are good for anyone and everyone, but especially for people with various foot conditions, such as plantar fasciitis and fallen arches, arthritis, back pain and more.

Arch support shoes play a vital role in alleviating stress on the knees, hips and lower back, while also improving the alignment of the feet and legs.

If the arch support is too high, it can potentially cause discomfort or pain in the feet. It is best to buy shoes that offer arch support that is neither too high nor too low, and are wide and deep enough to allow you to insert additional arch support if you need it.

Some symptoms caused by a lack of arch support include:

• Foot fatigue or soreness after walking or standing, especially in the arches or balls of the feet
• Heel pain in the morning, a common symptom of plantar fasciitis
• Flat feet or overpronation can cause poor alignment and joint stress
• Aches in the knees, hips, or lower back that may stem from unsupported arches
