Heel painPlantar fasciitisStanding workEverydayWalking

For the heel that hurts all day, not just at first step

Not all heel pain is plantar fasciitis. A heel spur, a bruised heel fat pad from concrete floors, or a heel that simply takes too much impact all shift hurts under and around the heel bone through the day. What those have in common is a heel that needs to be held and cushioned.

This design has the deepest heel cup in our range. It holds the heel bone and keeps its natural fat pad underneath it, and the bottom of the cup is a cushioned well so impact lands on foam rather than shell. Arch support from your impression takes some of the load off the heel in the first place.

Build

FAQ

Questions about the heel pain pair

Still unsure? Write to care@evensteporthotics.com — a person answers.

Heel pain or plantar fasciitis design?

Plantar fasciitis is the choice when the pain is sharpest on the first steps and runs into the arch. Heel pain is for pain that sits under or around the heel bone all day, or a heel spur, or a bruised heel from standing on concrete.

Does a heel spur need surgery?

Rarely. Most spurs are painless bystanders seen on X-ray; when a heel hurts, it is usually the soft tissue around it. Offloading the heel and stretching the calf is the usual first plan. A clinician should look at any heel pain that is severe or came on suddenly.

Will these fit work boots?

Yes. Pull the boot's own insole out and slide this one in. The heel cup is deep and the boot has the volume for it.

How do I know they will fit?

Your orthotics are shaped from an impression of your own feet, not a size chart, and the shell is set to your weight band. We confirm the length from the impression and trim the pair to the shoe type you told us about. If anything is off, a remake is free inside the 180-day guarantee.

What's different from a shelf insole?

A shelf insole is one of three or four shapes chosen to fit millions of feet; it cushions but it cannot hold a heel or contour an arch that isn't its own. A custom orthotic is shaped from an impression of your foot, so the heel cup, arch profile and forefoot relief are yours. If a shelf insole has already solved your problem, keep it — we say so in our guides.

Which shoes will these fit?

Full-length designs fit sneakers, walking and running shoes, work boots and most lace-ups; remove the shoe's own insole and slide ours in, trimming along the guide if needed. The three-quarter design is for dress shoes and flats where there is no room for a full insole. Each pair is shaped for one shoe type, which is why a second pair for a different shoe is $139.
