Why they’re great: Accommodating for wide feet thanks to the adjustable fastening, these slide on slippers allow ample air flow, making them as suitable for summer as they are for the winter months. The breathable knit uppers keep the foot comfortable and moisture-free, while the memory foam insoles ensure cushioning with every step. Wearing these HOKAs ourselves, we found the support and comfort to top previous iterations, thanks to a new foam and improved outsole design. The brand also made changes to the shoe's upper by removing unnecessary overlays and other features. Instead, a more streamlined look with a plusher heel, reflective heel panel, and a tongue with a single side medial gusset. All of what you want, none of what you don't. Designed by Australian podiatrists, our orthotic sandals and flip-flops have been ergonomically designed with comfortable biomechanical arch support to help align and support your feet and the tarsal bar helps prevent toe scrunching.

Look for a shoe that mimics your natural foot shape, cradles your heel securely, and has a removable insole allowing for possible customized orthotics, if needed," says Dr. Sinett. "You know your body best, try before you buy! My personal favorite sneaker brand, [On], has a 30-day trial period."Fit: Ensure the shoes fit properly. Pay attention to length, width, and depth to avoid any discomfort or potential foot problems. Remember to try on shoes later in the day when feet tend to be slightly larger due to natural swelling.

Picture the arch of your foot, that graceful curve that spans from the ball to the heel. Arch support is the structural element within shoes that cradles and reinforces this natural arch, providing stability, balance, and comfort.Introducing the ASICS Gel-Venture 9 shoe, the perfect companion for outdoor adventurers seeking durability, comfort, and versatility. Designed to conquer any terrain, this shoe is built to withstand the toughest challenges while providing exceptional performance. Flaws but not dealbreakers: I’ve seen a few complaints about the placement of the brand tag, which you’ll find where your heel goes. Having said that, it seems others haven’t found it an issue. Also, working on flexibility in your calves, hamstrings, quadriceps, and other lower body muscles can help to minimize foot and ankle problems and muscular imbalances. What do buyers say? " I suffer from overpronation, which causes knee pain. I chose the Arahi 6 because of its stability profile. After 150+ miles of daily walking, I am no longer having knee discomfort, and I am pleased that I do not find any crushing of the instep sidewall of the sole," said one HOKA reviewer. How they feel: If you’ve been wearing your pool slides around the house but require something with more support, you’ll love these. They feel warm and soft with just the right amount of squish.

The Arahi 6 emphasizes support and stability with a low-profile cushion bed that keeps your foot closer to the ground, and plenty of stability thanks to their J-Frame technology to help “prevent excessive inward roll, or over-pronation, without overcorrecting your gait.” Standard flip flops are thin and unsupportive and being completely flat doesn't support your arches or prevent over-pronation, which is when your arches and ankles drop or roll inwards when you walk. This can cause painful damage to your feet along with symptoms of plantar fasciitis, including stabbing pains in your heels. Flaws but not dealbreakers: Sizing can run a touch small, so you may need to consider the next size up if you usually struggle with finding shoes to fit. Right off the mark, the shoe is sexy...with an extra-chunky sole made of Nike's React foam and a deceptively supportive triple-layered knit upper," said Brett Williams, NASM, in his review of an earlier model of this shoe. The same rings true with the latest edition. Available in four colours our orthopaedic flip flops will support you throughout the summer and all year round as useful indoor footwear.

Designed with you and your feet in mind, our new slippers feature a stronger, non-removable supportive footbed which provides long lasting stability and corrects over-pronation. Available in multiple styles and colours. But how do you determine the best shoes for arch support? The answer lies not only in the construction of the shoe but also in understanding your own feet. Different individuals have varying arch types—high, medium, or low—and require different support designs, which is why we've recruited our team for MH fitness editors and experts to test out the top arch support shoes in their own daily lives and workouts. Through our comprehensive testing process, we've taken into account factors paramount to a quality arch support shoe, including support type, comfort, cushioning, breathability, overall fit, and price to bring you a list of the very best. However, corrective shoes may weaken some of the smaller or intrinsic muscles over time, according to Dr. Mendeszoon. Incorporating arch support shoes into your wardrobe can significantly improve comfort levels, prevent future health issues, and make walking and standing during long days more bearable,"says Todd Sinett, DC, a New York City-based chiropractor and founder of Tru Whole Care. "A slight change in your footwear can have a drastic positive effect on your everyday."

As you can tell, our favorite brand of slippers is Vionic. Here is what we like about them and why we recommend them to so many of our patients: If you overpronate (foot rolls excessively inward), look for shoes that provide stability and motion control. On the other hand, if you underpronate (foot rolls outward), choose shoes with ample cushioning and flexibility. Additional factors such as weight, biomechanics, and overall fitness can also play a role in accurately determining your arch type. For a more in-depth analysis of your arch type, head to your a local chiropractic clinic, podiatry practice, or upscale running shoe store for a foot scan that can provide detailed information about your feet and arches.Make sure you are not keeping your shoes too long and pay attention to how the sneaker is wearing down," says Dr. Sinett. "If money isn’t a big deterrent, buy a few pairs at the same time and switch them out. It extends out the life of the sneaker and also lets you mix up the styles a bit."
