High Arch Insoles: Filling the Space Under a High Arch
With a high arch, the middle of your foot sits well off the ground. Your weight lands mostly on the heel and the ball of the foot, and a flat factory liner leaves an empty space under the arch. High-arched feet also tend to be stiffer, so they soak up less shock on their own.
That's why people with high arches often want two things from a footbed: something that reaches up under the arch, and cushioning at the heel and forefoot where the load collects. The Shock Absorbing Foot Insoles cover both: a molded TPU arch support and heel cup below, PU memory foam on top. The All Day Foot Insoles, built for standing and walking, trade the memory foam for EVA and a firmer contoured arch.
Both are off-the-shelf, with a set arch shape rather than one molded to your foot, so a very high or rigid arch may not meet the insole all the way. For how arch support works in general, see arch support insoles. High arches often come with rolling onto the outside of the foot; see insoles for supination.
FAQs
What kind of insole is best for high arches?
Many people with high arches look for arch support that reaches up to meet the foot, plus cushioning at the heel and ball, where their weight concentrates. Our Shock Absorbing Foot Insoles do both, with PU memory foam laid over the molded TPU arch and heel cup. With a very high or rigid arch, a podiatrist can tell you whether a custom orthotic makes more sense.
Can arch support be too high or too low?
Yes. Too little and there's still a gap under the arch; too much and you'll feel a pressure point right in the middle of the foot. Ours have a set arch shape rather than one molded to your foot, so wear them for part of the day at first and see how the arch sits before going all day.
Do high arch insoles help with foot pain?
They change how pressure is spread under the foot, which often feels better than a liner with nothing under the arch. They won't change the shape of your foot. Pain that's sharp, keeps getting worse or comes with numbness is worth a healthcare provider's look.
