The Gdefy shoes are good for the heel problem. I'm in Brooks Ghost Max with Upstep custom insoles. I also snip at revs acupuncture insoles. My feet don't like flat surfaces. I take walks over terrain. Since I have the opposite problem, I'm trying to make my feet slap the ground. You might try a longer stride. Try lifting your front toe. What I'm doing wrong might be what you should do.

Can anyone recommend any decent insoles or footwear for pain in the foot and heel please?
Can anyone recommend any decent insoles or footwear for pain in the foot and heel please? I can't walk bare foot flat sandals etc make the pain worse... it's summer and I'm having to live in my trainers...so any recommendations for summer shoes also. Thank you x

I had no luck changing my shoes , I got insoles from upstep and have been amazed by the difference !
Superfeet make a good insole. Make a visit to a running store to make sure you are in the right trainers. I like Aerothotic flip-flops for great support and cute colors
Yes, the Hoka tecovery slides are awesome!
I haven’t found anything yet with a firm enough arch support I have very high arch and can’t wear slides that are too soft or squishy 😢
Oofahs are great too.
Try Hoka Recovery slides. They instantaneously cured my plantars fasciitis. Now all I wear are Hoka sneakers, boots, recovery slides and sandals.
I can recommend these slides sandals! My podiatrist told me to wear them and now I live in these!
I’ve been loving my Allbirds
Also, I wear Chacos sandals, and they're very high quality, as well as very comfy if you have high arches.
I second this! Absolutely love mine.
Hello, I have same problem, OluKai flips have a fairly high arch support, also I’ve had good results with Hoka OneOne flips, and they’re cheaper than OluKai 🤷🏼
I've tried many different brands and now appreciating my Gdefy sneakers
