Flat Feet Shoes for Women

Flat feet, also known as fallen arches, is a term used to describe when the arch of a foot is lower than average. This condition can lead to various challenges, including foot pain, fatigue, and difficulty in finding suitable footwear (particularly for orthotics, read our approach here).

Women with flat feet often struggle with discomfort during walking or running, as their feet lack the natural arch support that helps to distribute weight evenly.

The lack of proper support can lead to conditions such as plantar fasciitis. The plantar fascia is a large ligament that runs from heel to forefoot, acting as a shock absorber and providing stability to the joints of the foot.

Understanding these struggles, we at FRANKIE4 are founded on podiatrist-design technology and have created a range of styles that are also suitable footwear for flat feet. Providing much-needed comfort and supportive style to women with flat feet.

What Are the Best Types of Shoes for Flat Feet?

When it comes to choosing the best shoes for flat feet, certain key features are essential to ensure comfort and support. These features include:

Arch Support: Proper arch support helps to distribute weight evenly across the foot, reducing strain on the plantar fascia and helping to minimize the risk of developing plantar fasciitis.
Wider Toe Box: A wider toe box provides ample space for the toes, aiding in preventing cramping and discomfort, which is crucial for flat feet. If you need more room or a firmer feel, all our boots, sneakers, and most of our flats come with our complimentary Sole Saver Pack® for a customizable fit.
Cushioning: Adequate cushioning absorbs shock and reduces impact, offering relief from foot pain associated with flat feet.
Support: Shoes with good support help to maintain proper foot alignment, reducing the risk of overpronation (excessive inward rolling of the foot). Furthermore, insoles and footbeds, such as our Sole Hero® Footbed, that offer extra support and cushioning can enhance comfort and provide additional arch support.
Heel Contour: An expertly balanced heel counter, not too hard or soft, helps to distribute pressure evenly and directs it away from painful areas.
