Memory foam shoes, like memory foam mattresses, improve the comfort of your feet. It's made to relieve pressure spots on the ball of the foot that a person with foot pain might experience. The only thing to keep in mind with a memory foam shoe is that it has a tendency to heat up and get warm. Second, have the custom ones that fit you feed needs. Plantar fasciitis due to improper biomechanics includes wobbly feet. As a result, you may require a stiffer inserts that provide stability while cushioning your foot.

The choice of orthotics depends on your foot needs; you can choose hard orthotics if you need more support or soft orthotics if more cushioning is necessary. The best insoles for plantar fasciitis blend rigidity and support with flexibility and comfort. Memory foam insoles do not qualify as they are mostly soft.

Memory foam insoles are well-cushioned, guaranteeing high levels of comfort. With plantar fasciitis, you need more than just cushioning. You also need the rigidity of a hard surface to address the cause. Thus, the best insoles for plantar fasciitis are semi-rigid insoles. These combine the comfort of soft insoles with the rigidity of hard insoles.
