text: I do have a high arch and am recovering from planar fasciitis so this does impact my review. These do offer a very cushioned, comfortable walk, but they do not have enough arch support for my high arch without inserts for all day walking. I have not found any shoe that offers enough arch support anymore so these are much better than most in that area. I could wear them all day right out of the box and they are simply cute with everything. I highly recommend them.
