If your days begin and end with pain at the bottom of your heel, then it’s possible you’re struggling with persistent plantar fasciitis. A type of inflammation of the plantar fascia ligament on the bottom of the foot, plantar fasciitis affects approximately 2 million people every year.

Schuitema D, Greve C, Postema K, Dekker R, Hijmans JM. Effectiveness of mechanical treatment for plantar fasciitis: A systematic review. J Sport Rehabil. 2019;29(5):657-674. doi:10.1123/jsr.2019-0036 This mid-cut model delivers between 18 and 20 mmHg of compression around the arch and ankle, which is slightly less than what you’ll get from CEP’s taller pairs (20-30 mmHg). We like it because it supports tired feet and helps promote blood flow, but doesn’t feel uncomfortably snug or restrictive during workouts. Plus, the new 4.0 model has a padded and ventilated footbed for some softer cushioning underfoot that also moves heat and sweat away from your skin. Their material construction is perfect for allowing your feet to breathe and retain warmth at the same time, with a unique blend of fabrics including spandex, nylon, and acrylic wool. In our opinion, not enough products focus on specific parts of your feet, like your plantar arch, but these do so you can run, climb, or skip without having to worry about sufficient support.

We’ve highlighted some of the most important design features that the leading brands kept in mind: Material(s) This splint is sturdy, but it’s also lightweight, low-profile, and breathable, making it surprisingly comfortable to sleep in after a few nights of adjusting to the passive stretching. The interior is lined with soft foam, and the padded external straps keep your foot secure but not overly restricted. The padding features a washable Lycra covering that keeps cool against your skin while you sleep.This is a good choice if during the day you need to wear an insole, such as an insole for flat feet. Most people who have plantar fasciitis recover in several weeks or months with conservative treatment, including rest, icing the affected area, and regular at-home stretching. Doing calf stretches, such as a downward dog yoga pose, a few times a day can help keep plantar fasciitis at bay. Stretching first thing in the morning is crucial, too. Design Features: 40% acrylic, 33% nylon, 10% lycra, 9% wool, 8% polyester, seamless toe box, extra soft foot padding, and natural air channels.

No-show: Top of cuff sits below the ankle bone and is barely visible above the collar of a running shoeStance builds apparel that’s all about performance but doesn’t sacrifice style. This means you’re getting premium materials and workmanship with attention to the details—like a left-and-right specific fit, antimicrobial finish, and woven channels to let air flow more easily through the cushioning. And with that, you still have the option to spice up your race or daily run with flowers, stripes, camo, Disney characters, and dozens of artist collaborations.

Medium cushion: Additional padding underfoot is noticeable and takes up slightly more space inside of a shoe On top of that, the color options are spectacularly unique and are perfect for balancing the intensity of a dark Doc Marten leather boot or shoe. Wear this for any occasion to lighten the mood and express your personality. This small yet extremely effective massage ball can be a powerful tool in your plantar fasciitis pain relief arsenal. Made of dense, firm rubber, it provides a stimulating massage and releases tension in the plantar fascia. Using the rubber spikes, you can focus on specific areas of your feet that are tight and get some relief.Then, we scoured the internet for the best-selling relief products from the most popular and trusted brands. We evaluated each product for purpose, cushioning and support, and overall quality. Paying special attention to how much each product costs, we determined whether or not it is worth its price. We also pulled one product, Walk-Hero's Comfort and Support Plantar Fasciitis Insoles, from our recent insoles test in The Verywell Testing Lab where we wear-tested the insoles in our Lab and then for several weeks in our regular routines—evaluating and rating each one on a scale of 1 (would not recommend) to 5 (highly recommend) for support, comfort, pain relief, breathability, and overall value. Doc Martens are fantastically multi-purpose. I’ll wear mine to a nice dinner, then on a hike the next day. However, unlike a pair of specialty hiking boots with fancy thermal-regulating mesh, Docs can be a bit… suffocating.
