Overview The PowerStep Pinnacle Plus uses the same base shape as the customer-favorite Pinnacle insole and simply adds a metatarsal cushion for additional metatarsal support. This insole will provide you with semi-rigid arch support, a built-in metatarsal pad, and a deep heel cup for all-over foot support and stability. With a moderate amount of cushioning throughout the insole, you'll have plenty of cushioning and pressure relief for most day-to-day uses while ensuring that the insole is still slim enough to work in almost all types of shoes. Description From top to bottom, you'll first see that the top of the Pinnacle insole is covered in a layer of durable, patterned blue fabric that helps reduce friction against the bottom of the foot, absorb heat, and wick away perspiration and moisture. This fabric sits atop a moderately-thick layer of EVA foam that will provide cushioning and pressure relief for the entire foot from heel to toe. Integrated into the center of the insole is the metatarsal pad and semi-rigid arch support shell, which provides a deep heel cup for heel support and semi-rigid arch support. Lastly, the bottom of the insole is lined with a thin layer of EVA form for additional cushioning and shock absorption. See the product for yourself:

Overview The 10 Seconds 3030 Pressure Relief Insoles with Metatarsal Support are one of the most popular insole options for those seeking extra-plush all-over cushioning plus additional arch & metatarsal support. These insoles will provide flexible arch support, with the addition of a thickly-cushioned pad that runs from the base of the arch at the heel all the way through the metatarsals of the foot. Featuring Plastazote foam across the entire top, these insoles will provide maximum cushioning & pressure relief while also being diabetic and sensitive-foot friendly. Description From top to bottom, the entire top of the insole is covered in a thick layer of Plastazote foam cushioning. Plastazote is an extremely soft foam material that resists foot abrasion, making it a good option for those suffering from diabetes, arthritis, or sensitive feet. A thick cushioned pad runs along the top of the insole from the base of the arch at the heel all the way through the metatarsals, providing additional arch support plus metatarsal support. Poron strike pads under the heel and ball-of-foot help absorb impact shock where your foot meets the ground, while air-flow channels built into the underside of the insole help circulate air within your shoes for better cooling and moisture control.

About Metatarsal Pain & Metatarsalgia
Metatarsal pads, insoles, and inserts that are designed to cushion and support the forefoot, which can help prevent and relieve the painful symptoms of Metatarsalgia, Morton's Neuroma, Sesamoiditis, Splayfoot, or other forefoot pain. Metatarsal insoles and inserts feature a thick and/or raised metatarsal pad to help support your transverse arch, provide cushion for your ball-of-foot, and help hold your forefoot in a natural resting position while supporting the metatarsal bones of your feet.
What is metatarsalgia? What are symptoms of metatarsal pain?
Metatarsalgia is a foot condition characterized by pain and inflammation in the forefoot, particularly around the ball-of-foot and metatarsals. This causes the forefoot, especially the area between the toes and the arch, to become extremely sore, and in some cases, the soreness is secondary to sharp pain.
For most people, this begins as a discomfort rather than pain and is often described as feeling like having a pebble stuck under the foot. Over time, this can escalate into persisting soreness/aching, or in the worst cases a burning sensation, numbness, or sharp pains.
What causes metatarsalgia/metatarsal pain?
Metatarsalgia and metatarsal pain has a number of causes, but generally speaking the most common causes all involve putting excess strain on the metatarsals of the foot:
- High-impact activities such as running and jumping, especially if the foot is not properly supported and cushioned.
- Tight-fitting footwear that squeeze or compress the forefoot and/or toes, such as high heels, narrow dress shoes, and shoes with pointed toes.
- Foot conditions such as bunions, hammertoes, or cavus foot, which can alter the shape of the foot and put extra strain on the metatarsals.
- Inflammation from conditions such as gout or arthritis can cause pain and inflammation of the metatarsals.
- Excess strain on the foot due to lack of support, excess weight, and similar, especially if the foot is not properly supported or cushioned.
How to treat and prevent metatarsal pain?
To alleviate and prevent metatarsalgia and metatarsal pain, we first want to remove any undue strain on the forefoot. To do this:
- Avoid wearing any shoes that are particularly tight, or which squeeze the toes.
- Add a metatarsal pad or metatarsal insole to your shoes to provide extra support for the metatarsals.
- Provide sufficient ball-of-foot cushioning to your shoes to ensure that you have sufficient pressure and shock absorption.
