best athletic shoes plantar fasciitis women image
Bess2002
The front of my foot is very wide, but my heel is very narrow, making it difficult to find shoes that are wide enough in front but that don't slip at the heel. I need lots of shock absorption in my shoes to minimize pressure on my discs when I run & to keep my plantar fasciitis from flaring up. I also have a high instep & high arch. I wear orthotic inserts to support my high arch so arch support isn't a big necessity in the shoe itself. I'm a woman, but I don't mind wearing either men's or women's shoes, so long as they fit well. Any recommendations?
Answer
like yourself I have wide feet And I have always been a big Asics fan their shoe are very conforatable and they have a wide selection of shoes to chose from.
New balcnace is another shoe brand that makes wide shoe sizes. But have no experience wearing them. Your best betis to go to your local running shoe store and ask them.
Running shoes are something that you must do in a store. The reason being that there are so many thing that you need to consider in buying a pair of shoes. For example, do you have wide or narrow feet, do you pronate (outward roll of the foot) or supernate (inward roll of the foot) or are you a neutral runner. (look at the bottom of your current running shore they will tell you) They should not rub anywhere, if they do they will give you blisters. Either move up a half size or try a different shoe.
Go to a store that specializes in running shoes, so that you can try the on. In fact, most stores will let you do a short run ( 100-200-meters) in the shoes before you buy them. This is done so you can see if the shoe rubs anywhere. This is because they want you to be happy and come back again. They usually can answer all of your questions or find the answer for you.
Usually when you find a shoe that you like stick with it and just get the most recent model of that shoe (it usually changes every year)
In fact, take the shoes that your currently running in with you when you go the shoe store. Do not buy running shoes on line. Bad Idea.

I need a good pair of shoes for work, any suggestions?

I am a preschool teacher and I stay on my feet all day. I'm also a little overweight. I've been wearing a pair of Sketchers casual shoes (called Women's Bikers - Point Blank) but my feet are killing me. I love the look of my Sketchers, but I think they are killing my feet. I feel like I'm developing a tailor's bunion and the tips of my big toes are numb. Obviously, I need better shoes! But before I invest a good chunk of money on a pair of shoes, I am looking for suggestions.
I have suffered from plantar fasciitis in the past and it flares up occasionally, I'm fairly sure I am developing a tailor's bunion on the side of my right foot, and the tips of both of my big toes are constantly numb (but the color of my toes is good, they look normal). I'm on my feet all day at work. I wear a lot of khakis and I dress more casually, but I don't think athletic sneakers would really be work appropriate. Does anyone have any suggestions for nice looking (please, no nurses shoes), casual but work appropriate shoes that will help me feet? Remember, too, I'm just a preschool teacher so I doubt I can spring for shoes over $100 (without saving for a couple of months first, LOL).
Thanks in advance :)
I can't afford a trip to a podiatrist. I have no medical insurance (I teach preschool at a private school and make not much more than minimum wage). I haven't been on a vacation in years and I have the same TV I had when I was in high school 12 years ago (no flat screen here). I don't get to indulge in luxuries in my life in my present job (I'm looking for other employment, but so far, no luck). If I want to see a podiatrist, I'll have to save up for months and months. I'd kinda like to get a decent pair of shoes in the mean time.
