People with Plantar Fasciitis Say These Winter Boots Provide ‘Great Support and Cushioning’
Amazon
Finding quality shoes that relieve foot pain that comes from health conditions can be a struggle — and finding quality boots with the same capabilities can be even harder.
But one brand known for its pressure-relieving sneakers has a pair of top-rated winter boots that are designed with these people in mind.
Made with cushioned insoles and built-in arch support, Orthofeet’s Florence boots use the brand’s signature Ortho-Cushion insoles for optimal support and comfort, along with warm faux-fur lining to stand up to winter weather. Lightweight and non-binding, the boots come in regular, wide, and extra-wide sizes. Their insoles are also removable, allowing for even more customization.
These features are game-changers for those with health conditions affecting the feet, such as diabetes, arthritis, and plantar fasciitis. According to the American Podiatric Medical Association, inflammation that arises from plantar fasciitis “may be aggravated by shoes that lack appropriate support, especially in the arch area” — which further solidifies the importance of finding a pair of supportive boots for winter.

Shoppers with plantar fasciitis have called out the impressive fit and feel of the boots.
“I have a bad case of plantar fasciitis and these boots seem to give me great support as well as cushioning for my heel pain,” wrote one five-star reviewer. “The boots are stylish and have held up great!”
Those who struggle to lace up boots after putting them on will be happy to hear that these winter shoes come with straps, not ties. This way, they can easily slide on and off your feet.
“This is the best boot I have ever purchased,” wrote one happy shopper. “Due to my diabetes I have cold feet a lot and these boots feel wonderful on my feet. No break-in period like a lot of other shoes. Also, the footbed is very cushioned and comfortable, and the insoles are removable so that I can put my custom orthotics inside the boot for my numerous foot problems.”
