"These shoes are amazing! I wore these shoes all day and had no foot pain. I have plantar fasciitis, metatarsalgia and neuropathy, and had no pain all day. The arch support is perfect, much more comfortable than my $400 orthotics. When they came in the mail, I immediately tried them on, couldn't believe when I stood up--it was heaven! I am a nurse. I have been telling everybody I work with about these shoes."

Pamela
"Finally I have found a sneaker that fits. I have Morton's toe and suffer from Metatarsalgia. After 1 week of wearing them the pain disappeared. I run 3 miles a day and thought I was going to have to give it up. I liked them So much I ordered a pair of sandals 2 weeks later and I love them just as much. Soooooo happy after years of bad fitting shoes."

"I have researched and ordered so many shoes,with great hope each time 99% returned. Then I would wait awhile and try again. This time with Ortho Feet Coral Women's Lace Athletic and Coral No-Tie Lace Black finally found the shoes I have been searching for!! And they don't look like old lady shoes (I'm 80) I have a long term bunion on one foot that has disfigured that foot with a hammer toe and metatarsalgia, etc. Wide is truly wide in this brand so the toe box is very comfortable and unrestrictive. Worked right out of the box. I tried one of their other types that didn't work as well. Free shipping and return makes this a no risk deal."

"I decided to try this pair of shoes after realizing how comfortable the orthofeet slippers were. These shoes did not disappoint. Very comfortable, and provides the support to my arch and foot to continue to alleviate my metatarsalgia. This was the reason for getting the slippers. Now during the day the shoes continue to provide the support I need. I did use the extra arch support which was included with the shoes. At this point my feet have no more pain, and I did not have to have the steroid injection, I just improved the foot support."
How Metatarsalgia Shoes Can Help Alleviate Symptoms

Premium Orthotic Insoles
Premium orthotic insoles with anatomical arch support and multi-layer padding reduce pressure on the metatarsal heads and ball of the foot.
Arch Booster System
The Orthofeet Arch Booster can be added under the orthotic insole to increase the support under the arch and helps reduce pressure on the ball of the foot.
Cushioning Sole
Innovative Ortho-Cushion System featuring an ergonomic cushioning sole enhances comfort and helps reduce ball of the foot pain.

Fitting Spacers
If the shoes are too loose you may get a snugger fit using the removable spacers that come with the shoes (1/16'' and 1/8'' thick), enhancing stability and comfort.

FAQs:
The frequency with which you need to replace your shoes to prevent metatarsalgia can vary depending on several factors, including the type of shoe, your activity level and your foot type.
Here are some general guidelines for selecting shoes to alleviate or prevent metatarsalgia:
- Ample cushioning in the forefoot area helps to absorb shock and reduce pressure on the metatarsal bones.
- Proper arch support helps distribute weight evenly across the foot and reduces strain on the metatarsals.
- A wide toe box that allows your toes to spread naturally helps to alleviate pressure on the metatarsals.
- Avoid shoes with high heels or excessive heel elevation that can shift the body's weight forward, increasing pressure on the ball of the foot. - A flexible sole allows for natural foot movement, promoting better shock absorption and helping to distribute pressure more evenly.
- Shoes that are too tight or narrow can increase pressure on the metatarsal area.
No, walking barefoot, especially on hard surfaces such as concrete or pavement, may increase stress on the metatarsals and worsen symptoms.
Several factors can make metatarsalgia worse:
- High-impact activities such as running or jumping can increase the pressure on the metatarsal heads, aggravating metatarsalgia.
- Wearing shoes that are too tight, narrow, or have insufficient cushioning.
- Wearing high-heeled shoes can place excessive pressure on the ball of the foot, particularly on the metatarsal heads.
- Extended periods of standing or walking without adequate rest or footwear.
- Carrying excess body weight can put additional stress on the feet and exacerbate metatarsalgia symptoms.
- Structural abnormalities, such as high arches, flat feet, or foot imbalances can contribute to metatarsalgia, especially if you don't wear proper shoes.
The decision to exercise with metatarsalgia depends on the severity of your symptoms and the advice of your healthcare professional.
