Low Arch Insoles


About Low Arch Insoles

What are low arch insoles?

Low-arch insoles are designed with an arch support that mostly closely matches the average arch height of a low-arched foot. If you have feet with low arches, these insoles will provide good support for your feet.

If you have medium/neutral-arched feet, a low arch insole will provide less arch support. If you have high-arched feet, a low arch insole will provide much less arch support.

How high is the arch on a low-arch insole?

Typically around 18mm, but medium arch insoles can range anywhere from 15mm to 22mm in total arch height.

If my feet don't have low arches, can I wear a low-arch insole?

We generally recommend wearing an insole where the arch height of the insole is close to that of your foot. In other words, if you have low-arched feet, we recommend a low arch insole, but if you have medium-arched or high-arched feet, we instead recommend a medium-arch insole or high-arch insole instead.

If your foot arch is between two foot arch heights according to the Wet Test (i.e. your foot could be considered medium-arched or high-arched), the general rule of thumb is that a higher arch will provide more support while a lower arch will provide less support, and you can choose either high-arch or medium-arch insoles depending on your preference in this case.

How can I find my foot arch type?

There’s a simple at-home test you can do to find your foot arch shape called the Wet Test. It involves stepping in a shallow amount of water and stepping on a surface to leave a wet footprint behind (a piece of cardboard, your driveway or sidewalk, or similar). By comparing the shape of the footprint with a visual image of medium, low, and high arch feet, you can determine the arch height of your own foot.
