High Arch Support Shoes

[xvrickh]

A couple years ago I purchased some Adidas Sambas for indoor soccer and found out they had some nice high arch support. When buying my tennis shoes I've typically hunted in the clearance section for what ever was cheapest, buy a couple pairs, and deal with the fit. As I am aging I'm becoming more picky with my shoes and I'm looking for a tennis shoe with more arch support. Using the search feature in the forums, many suggested this area for shoes with good arch support...

I only see two shoes available with limited sizing. Did Tennis Warehouse move or remove this category? If it has been removed, can anyone recommend shoes with good arch support? I have a medium-wide foot, so Nike is typically out as an option. Maybe 8ish years ago I bought two pairs of barricades and those had the reverse of arch support (more support on the outer foot vs the inner, which felt all kinds of wrong), but I muscled through that and don't want to have that experience again -especially with two pairs of shoes! Any recommendations will help!

If you want a high support, I recommend getting aftermarket insoles, like Superfeet Greens maybe. Most tennis shoes don't have much arch support because they are made to fit anyone.

Just to give my experience, I have found nothing commercially made that has helped me with my very high arches, they have all been a huge waste of money. After hundreds of dollars of waste, I finally did what I should have done from the start.
I have extremely narrow feet (AAAA heel width, AA forefoot) so very few shoes fit me even half way decently, Mizuno being one of the only shoe within the USA I found to fit my little Japanese feet..but that's besides the point, For my Extremely high arches, I had to go to an Orthopedic doctor and get my feet wrapped and plastered like I had broken bones in my feet for customs insoles. then they were sent to be made by company called Solo Laboratories. They are top notch. Mine are made of Leather and Plastic and have lasted through nearly a dozen pair of tennis shoes are just now in need of replacement 5 years later. They have a website and have different styles they make. I highly recommend them over wasting money on trying every product on the retail market as you will know they are made exactly for you and will benefit you health wise and last for years. Just my two cents

I also use aftermarket inserts
I do shop for wide.fit shoes with several other things I like on a shoe, i then put the inserts ive come to use on all my tennis shoes,,
I do buy several pair of the shoe I settle on..
I havent changed shoes in 5 yrs.. hopefully longer..
good luck..
