8 Best Shoes For Flat Feet, According To Podiatrists


By Tamekia Reece   
Apr 26, 2018

An estimated 20 to 30 percent of the population has flat feet, a condition that occurs when
the arches flatten, allowing the soles of the feet to completely touch the floor while standing. Many issues can cause the condition. For some people, it's hereditary. Others develop flat feet as a result of pregnancy, aging, obesity, or a health condition such as rheumatoid arthritis or diabetes, according to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons.

I have horribly flat feet and I find the Brooks Addiction better than whatever model they list in the article, and it comes in a Men's version.

Did you see the article with the 14 ultra-comfy shoes you can buy at Bloomie's?  If it's from Bloomingdale's it's got to be high fashion, right?

A colostomy bag costs a lot of money but that doesn't look good.

I'm positive Gillian Anderson has sneakers on under this long dress.

Well no, you can't wear them with a short dress, but it's sneakers all the way baby when no one's going to see them.

Maybe at the fire hall type of hillbilly events you frequent, but not out in the real world.

I have a pair of Brooks sneakers too. Best sneakers I’ve ever owned! And they are pink and purple!

Mine are flat enough to pull suction on a wet floor, and have been since birth. Never slowed me down, except I didn't go into the Service because I was told I'd just be rejected, anyway.

(Turns out folks with congenital flat feet tend to have fewer foot problems than folks with high arches.)

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

My dad had flat feet and was worried that the NAVY wouldn't take him in WWII. They took him. Sailors don't march too much.

I didn't get his feet. I'm always having to even double up on insoles to have enough arch support.

FYI, between a podiatrist and a great athletic shoe business that caters to runners here in town this is some info I can pass this information along.



See the grey and then dark grey area in the sole cushioning?  That's the portion that is the support for people who overpronate.  The longer it is, the more support for overpronation. 



There are also foams with different densities, the denser the foam in that area the more support.
