I have been diagnosed with PF and was told that it was due to very high arches. I remember reading somewhere that people who have high arches have a lot of trouble wearing lace-up shoes or any type of shoe that encloses the foot. This is a problem that I am now experiencing as I try to find a comfortable pair of shoes to accomodate my orthotics. I can hardly stand wearing closed-in shoes for more than a few minutes especially in this hot summer weather. My feet get hot, itchy and burning and I feel no relief until I take my shoes off and we all know that we can't go barefoot with this awful condition.
Has anyone experienced this problem and any suggestions about a solution? I know that a lot of people have a lot of success with Birks but I need a much softer and more firm support than these offer. HELP!!
