Reclaim your active life with performance-engineered shoes that transform how you move.

The sleek, contemporary design means you'll receive compliments while your feet receive the scientifically-backed support health professionals recommend. 

The right shoes can make all the difference in your plantar fasciitis recovery journey.

Clinically-proven support technologies

Plantar fasciitis shoes are designed with science in mind. Here's how they work:

• Contoured arch supports shaped using pressure-mapping technology to cradle your foot's unique arch, providing more contact area than standard insoles
• The deep heel drops reduce pressure where it hurts most by limiting excessive pronation—the primary mechanical cause of plantar fascia strain
• Plantar fasciitis midsoles absorb significantly more impact force than traditional materials, dispersing heel-strike pressure that aggravates plantar fasciitis with each step
• Metatarsal pads positioned precisely at the forefoot reduce tension along the entire length of the plantar fascia during toe-off phase
• Strategic flex zones with controlled bending ensure your foot moves naturally only where anatomically appropriate.

Built-in plantar fasciitis insoles

Experience the transformation with our game-changing c-sole™ technology. By blending orthopedic support with plush cushioning, we've created footwear that absorbs shock, minimizes plantar fascia strain, and keeps your feet comfortable from your first morning step to bedtime.

Don't just take our word for it.

FAQs about Orthopedic Shoes

How do I know if plantar fasciitis shoes will help my condition?

Plantar fasciitis shoes are specifically designed to help with heel pain caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia. If you experience sharp pain with your first steps in the morning, pain that worsens after (not during) exercise, or discomfort that increases throughout the day, our specialized footwear may provide significant relief. Most customers report noticeable improvement within 1-2 weeks of consistent wear. For severe or persistent symptoms, we recommend consulting with a podiatrist, who may suggest our shoes as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.

What makes these shoes different from regular supportive shoes?

Unlike standard supportive or cushioned shoes, our plantar fasciitis footwear features:

• Precise arch mapping designed specifically for the biomechanics of plantar fasciitis
• Deep heel cups that stabilize and reduce stress on the inflamed attachment point
• Metatarsal support that reduces tension along the entire length of the plantar fascia
• Clinically-tested heel-to-toe drop that minimizes strain during walking
• Strategic flex zones that prevent bending where it would aggravate your condition

Regular supportive shoes may provide general comfort but lack these targeted features that address the specific mechanics of plantar fasciitis.

Can I use my custom orthotics with your shoes?

Yes! All of our plantar fasciitis shoes feature removable 3mm insoles that can be replaced with your custom orthotic inserts. We've specifically designed our shoes with a wider toe box and deeper heel area to accommodate orthotics without compromising fit or comfort. The therapeutic geometry of the shoe works in harmony with most custom orthotics to enhance their effectiveness. 

Are these shoes HSA-eligible?

Yes! Oliver Cabell's orthopedic shoes are eligible for HSA/FSA reimbursement when purchased to treat, mitigate, or prevent a diagnosed medical condition such as plantar fasciitis. You'll get more purchasing power since you're using pre-tax dollars instead of paying with after-tax income. Learn more about how to use your FSA or HSA to pay for orthopedic shoes.

How long will it take to feel relief from my plantar fasciitis pain?

While individual results vary based on severity and adherence to a complete treatment plan, most customers report:

• Initial comfort improvement: Immediately upon wearing
• Noticeable pain reduction: Within 3-7 days of consistent wear
• Significant symptom relief: 2-4 weeks of daily use
• Long-term management: Ongoing with proper footwear

Remember that plantar fasciitis shoes work best as part of a comprehensive approach that may include stretching exercises, rest, ice therapy, and guidance from a healthcare professional. Consistent wear is key—use these shoes for all standing and walking activities for the best results.
