    Being a nurse I was on my feet 12+ hours a day. I felt like someone was beating my heel with a sledge hammer. After spending hundred of dollars on many different kinds of shoes, I found Vionics. Best relief for PF. It was instant! They have sneakers, heels, sandals, slippers and inserts only. All my shoes that are not Vionics brand have the inserts. No foot pain ever.

    What amazes me is those of us that suffer from PF have so many things that adversely affects the condition or seem to improve it but no two of us are alike. My feet are flat and a higher firmer arch in a shoe does me best. Man, do I wish there was a one size fits all fix. PF has severely affected my life at times to the point of dreading those first steps out of bed. It tempers my whole day.

    For years podiatrists, sports therapists, and doctors told me I was an over-pronator. PF on both feet for over years. I had the super-stiff shoes, ran in the super-rigids, had the injections (ouch!), and suffered something crazy. Then looked at my body, did the wet feet, paper bag test, and lo, I was an under-pronator. A combo of stretches and softer to normal shoes means I’ve been pain free for some years. I miss my rigid brogues - they looked and sounded smart in a suit, but they are just for occasional dress-ups now. I keep up the stretches advocated by these great guys and, yes, the wet feet/dry paper test is basic but other pros diagnosed without it. Great work, Bob and Brad, the wife and I are learning a lot. 🇬🇧

When you go to one of their brick and mortar stores, they measure your feet just like they should. They also sell online and have wide widths.

    Funny thing is that probably the shoes cause the problem instead of the foot itself. I came to this insight when I underwent a biomechanical screening. I was pronating severely when I was wearing shoes, as oppose to when I was running barefoot. When running barefoot I was in the normal range, meaning an acceptable angle between ankle (foot) and leg. This shows imo that shoe selection indeed is very important. Thank you, B&B!

    I have high arch and wear 4 E shoes so I am limited on a few brands .The right kind of shoe even without a fancy shoe insert is crucial to managing Plantar fasciitis without the need for podiatrist visit or fancy custom fit inserts . A year ago I was forced to switch to a different shoe model , but the same brand that I have always worn for about 6 years, because I thought the model i have always worn was phased out . Prior to that switch i am basically symptom free for maybe 10 years by using just the shoe that fits. Lo and behold, a few weeks after the switch my Plantar Fasciitis came back with a vengeance, to the point that I wanted to visit a podiatrist. Sought the advice of nurse friends and received recommendation for Hokas. While Hokas indeed have excellent cushioning, 4 E size 11.5 looks really huge and there is still a touch of discomfort on arch part although minimal on the 2 Hokas models I tried. So I had to return the Hokas and tried my luck on the New Balance that I always worn and to my surprise the model I always worn has always been available but has a new version. Ordered a new pair and just like that I am mostly pain-free and saved a whole lot of money . My point is there’s no cookie cutter solution to finding the perfect shoes that work for your feet 🦶 suffering from plantar fasciitis. And it’s hard work to find it . Also when you do have a flare up of pain.. don’t neglect icing or cold therapy to ease the flare up… exercises and stretching probably can help for some but in my experience, I got better relief with cold therapy. Easier to hunt for a shoe when your symptoms are lesser. With a flare up , almost all shoes will be uncomfortable… Sorry for the long post lol

    I have very high arc and learned the fuss about plantar fasciitis when I wake up one morning limping into the bathroom. Tried inserts which seems to offer some relief at work and used ASICS high arch running shoes for casual wear. I came across the Merrill crosslander vent and tried it on and was pleasantly surprised with how comfortable they are to my feet. The high arch design of the shoes is rigid and provides good contact. Went on a holiday that involves a lot of city walking for 4 days and my feet never hurt.

    I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis in 2014. In 2018, my chiropractor recommended these custom orthotics because I also have scoliosis and spondylolisthesis. They didn't even come up close to the top of my arch, the fitting part didn't even measure how high my arch was. My arches are so high that I often have trouble finding shoes that my foot will go in to. I wore the orthotics for a few months and the pain had worsened to the point that I was in agony. I'm just glad the orthotics were covered by health insurance. They were about $400. I would have been pretty upset if I was out that kind of cash for something that didn't help at all.
    I went back to wearing Birkenstocks, like I'd been doing for years. I wear them basically all the time. I also use insoles, for my non-sandal shoes, from a company called Superfeet. They have colour-coding, where green is for really high arches. They are a little pricey but worth every penny. My pain is basically gone now.

    I have to disagree with the arch support requirement. I had PF, and did lots of (prescribed) physical therapy and foot stretches. I used PF supports for a couple of months. After five months, it was mostly gone. Then I switched to flexible zero-drop shoes (Minnetonka suede boots primarily, because it was winter.) The last of my pain was gone in about five days. Since my pain had been steady for almost a month, it was remarkable.
    I have not worn shoes with any heels in four or five years, except three times briefly for events. And those are the only times I have had any PF twinges. No arch support except my foot’s own support. I don’t even use arch support for hiking, and I’m better than ever.
    Meanwhile, the doctor who referred me was still suffering with PF a year later, and she began PT and all the conventional stuff six months before me.
    So if your PF won’t go away even if you’re doing everything right, do your own research.

      “Rather than have the runners adapt to the running, they took the shoe and adapted it to the runner.” - Irene Davis
      this made sense to me...
      you wear a neck brace when first recovering from injury, but not forever...
      you have to let your foot muscles do what they are designed to do, too...
      not 100% of the time to start with, but slowly retrain your foot muscles to do their job.

    I think I did the best job I could getting rid of my plantars fasciitis. Of course it feels like you’re walking on a broken beer bottle. Thankfully I only had it in my right foot and not both feet or I’m pretty sure I would’ve died from the pain.😩 immediately I ordered some orthotics online -that of course didn’t arrive for weeks. In the interim, I spent as much time off my feet literally in my recliner pulling my toes back to stretch out the calves. And when I wasn’t stretching, I was rolling my right foot on a freezing cold can of seltzer. It shapes to your foot and feels great.
    What helped me the most was buying a pair of crocs & believe it or not using the Dr. Scholl’s kiosk at the local Walmart. The kiosk directed me to stand on it, and then it shows whatever it shows & I bought the suggested inserts -put them in my crocs & immediately felt relief.
    The pain was gone in 3-4 Wks. Now I have inserts in my Crocs… orthotics in my flats and gel heels in my walking shoes.

    Zero drop shoes fixed my PF. I've suffered PF since middle school and I was a skinny kid that was active in track, basketball and football. Weight wasn't an issue for me but my feet got worse over the years. Once I ditched my adidas boost, hard dress shoes with elevated heels my PF went away.
    My feet got sore because the muscles were finally working the way they are meant to work. Slowly my feet got stronger and my pain went away. Now I own multiple shoes from various companies and all are zero drop minimalist shoes.

    I injured my foot badly as a child and it wasn't fixed properly. Fast forward years later I have osteoarthritis in my bone and plantar fasciitis.
    I'm in pain most of the time. Some days are worse than other days.
    A few years ago a doctor at my local hospital took plaster casts of my feet and had some insteps (or whatever you call them) made to put in my shoes.
    I was advised to wear them in a good pair of running shoes.
    Back then I was a single parent to a small child with no money so I bought a pair of Reeboks on credit from my catalogue on buy now and pay later. They were expensive but I was happy to have them.
    The next night I wore those shoes to work and I had to take them off to go in the water (I work as a swimming teacher and sometimes have to teach in the water)
    When I went to get changed I noticed my new shoes and insteps had been stolen and in their place was a pair of old worn out smelly shoes that were so disgusting I couldn't wear them. I just sat down and cried.
    I wasn't able to get new insteps made for me and six months later I got the bill for the shoes I never got to wear for longer than one night.
    I managed to get some insteps from Ebay and now I mainly have to tape up my foot almost permanently as things have got a lot worse over the years.
    I'm glad I can watch all these videos with tips, management, treatment etc.

      Test out a natural remedies for plantar foot. Something as simple as ginger root, which can be bought at your drug store, is a good anti-inflammatory. Ginger root is in the class of plants known as Cox inhibitors. This means they help inflammation naturally.
      Another natural remedy for pain is Bromelain. Bromelain is an enzyme found in pineapples. If you drink the raw juice or eat raw pineapple, you can gt advantage from the properties of Bromelain. This is natural healing at its very best.

    I suffered from plantar fasciitis for around 3 years. I tried stretching, night sprint and ice for around 2 years without much relief. After that, I tried a steroid injection as advised by a renowned doctor but after 6-month more intense pain returned. One of the doctors advised me to reduce weight and wear a “doctor extra soft slipper”. As I can’t wear slipper to the office, I bought a pair of gel nimbus as advice over the blogs. **And surprisingly, the pain was gone within 10 days of the use of gel nimbus and doctor slippers. **I just made sure to wear either the shoe or slippers and never walked barefoot. Gel nimbus 22 was expensive but worth each penny, but not sure about latest nimbus versions.

    This moved the inflammation out of my husbands foot after using for 3 times, the pain had been bad for near a year. 2 - 5 gallon buckets, Epson Salt for the hot water ~ soak 3 munutes. Cold water in the other bucket ~ soak 1 minute. Repeat 4-7 times. The hot water does not need to be painful. The cold water add a few frozen water bottles to get cold. This flushes oxygen and nutrients while flushing inflammation. End on the warm water.

    When I experienced this badly one thing that helped greatly was rigid plastic heel cups that you wear inside your shoes. The dont allow the sole of your foot to spread when you step down and it helps the inflammation.
    One other thing that actually helped is when I went keto. Takes the inflammation all away

    I'm an over pronator but I do well with a stability shoe (Asics).... I'm also a physical therapist.

      I have PF, have high arches and have tried many different max cushioned shoes,. I’ve had two people at specialty shoe stores tell me I don’t need a stability shoes beaded on my arch and they say my arch has normal pronation. I went into another specialty store yesterday telling them I thought I needed a stability shoe but again they were like no you don’t. Got home with two pair of mid level cushioned neutral shoes that I wore for about 15 minutes around the house, and now have to return them. It’s very frustrating! Any advice? I’m waiting a few days to return them in hopes of getting a different salesperson. I know this place doesn’t carry Asics. Ugh.

      @@stephanieasher4445 Just now saw this, sorry. I wish I could help you out. Honestly I'd have to look at your feet and evaluate you to tell you which ones to buy. That being said, it would be best if you could meet with a PT or podiatrist rather than the store salesman to make sure you're getting what you need.

    Before believing you have plantar fasciitis,check with a chiropractor you may have something pinched in your lower back,after being treated for plantar fasciitis by a regular doctor and therapists for over a year,went to a chiropractor and in less then two weeks never had another problem with the sore heels and feet.

      @@wmpetroff2307 also remember not all chiros are good I've been to a few you could actually call quacks,they did more harm then good,if you can try an invertion table,I've had one for twenty years and it has helped many times keeping me from even having to go to a chiropractor, also try looking up acupressure it also helped me with sciatica,sometimes its just a muscle spasm,unfortunately I have problems with muscles not relaxing the right pressure point can make the pain go away,good luck hope you can get yourself to feel better

    I believe I have a normal arch, but I am bow legged. I have a couple of herniated disc‘s that pop out once in a while, and I successfully treat them with an inversion table. Recently I’ve been breaking in a pair of redwing Iron rangers for the first time, and would swap them out for my regular sneakers frequently. While at work the other night … my disc was aggravated while I was wearing my sneakers, and I switched back to the iron rangers. The pain in my back was Instantly gone. Gonna keep Experimenting with my footwear, don’t really know what to make of that yet … 🤷🏻‍♂️

    I love my Hoka One One shoes. The Machs and the Bondi 6 are cushy and have neutral stability. I have flat feet but they supinate instead of pronating. My feet roll out and most running shoes are for pronators and they roll my feet out far too much. Also, being past 60, the fat pads are thinning and I need cushion. The shoes look sorta clunky but they're lightweight and the colors are great.

    Ridged foot here too. Was told to wear shoes that go around the ankle to keep that stable. My PF is withstanding a lot of stuff. I sleep with my feet at 90 degrees (no splint, podiatrist was surprised - I ...fell asleep waiting for him to get in the room ROFL). I "walk" on my toes, to get pressure off my legs etc.
    Arches were not working without ankle support.
    Just wondering how much research is on the ankle support thing? I've looked through your vids and I didn't see anything on it. I have issues finding research on it myself, but it has made a big difference.

    I found that the Saucony Ride ISO 2 worked well for my running. I have a medium to slightly high arch, with a near neutral strike. It really had that ability to cushion the heel a bit, keep the arch protected, but enough spring, that I could do light sprints and distance running in... I find saucony better overall shoes then some of the competitors likewise shoes.

Had to get off from training for a week and later on got a supporting shoe which helped. In short don't get super flexible shoe if youre flat foot
