Cushioned Shoes for High Arches
A high arch has a very pronounced curve along the inner side of the foot. A large gap (ranging from 1/2 to 1 inch) can usually be seen between the ground and the foot. Also commonly associated with a high arch is a high instep (pronounced bump on top of the midfoot area) and clenched toes.
A high-arched foot leans toward the outside during the entire gait cycle. The foot remains quite rigid, it doesn't flex properly, and it doesn't absorb shock very well. Extra pressure and stress are placed on the outer edge of the foot and the smaller toes.
A high-arched foot is usually best served by a Cushioned (or Neutral-Cushioned) shoe. These shoes are designed to have a softer midsole and more flexibility. These shoes do not have any added devices for stability or support. Their main focus is to provide a high level of balanced cushioning to encourage a more natural foot motion. Sometimes, when the degree of supination is severe, a Motion Control shoe may be used to control excessive outward motion.
