Does these sneakers support a high arch?

Although the arch elevation is not a large one, it does exist. At this price, however, you could always buy an insert if necessary.

Yes. However, depending on how high your arch is, you may also want to use an insert. I purchased the shoes because I need arch support beyond what I normally get in some running shoes.

I believe I have a slightly high arch and in the past these shoes had been very comfortable. I am still wearing the old ones which are a size 8 1/2 med. I did put insoles in them, because it was more comfortable for me. I found the new shoes to be a little snug and the left foot hurt when I tried them on so I returned them for that reason.

The arch is the best I've found as far as height, but unfortunately for me/my size, the arch was about 1/4 of an inch too far back and therefore hit my heel instead of my arch. I had to return them for that reason. I wear a 10 wide, so ordered an 11. The most comfy shoe yet except for the positioning of the arch. Maybe your size would be fine. It's worth a try since its such a comfy shoe with a high arch.

Yes! I've noticed that they do. They are fairly short, but they seem to support all the books I've tried them on well.

I have flexible arches, but do have orthotics to insert into the boots. This year I ordered a 1.2 size larger (10.5)because my large toes were rubbing. But I wore the size 10 for several years.

In my experience, I have not noticed a difference in arch support when using these in my shoes.

I use them for walking only. The arch isn't very high, but they are comfortable and I've had 5 pairs over the years. Because of the mesh they are good if you have problems in the big toe area (like bunions).

Yes. I would recommend placing them under the insole that comes with the shoe.

They should work. Since it is partial coverage. The only concern may be where you arch would line up.

Yes, these are more of an arch support. Everyone's arch is higher or lower than someone else. Since one size wont fit all, they try to make a few different sizes of arch support so you can try to get one that is somewhat close. If you need an arch support these can help provide some relief. If you need an arch support and would like a professional fit like a doctor would prescribe go to Surethotic.com. They will make a support that is an exact fit and will last 10 times longer.

I'm not sure I understand the question. Are you asking about the height of the arch? I'm pretty sure I don't know the answer to your question, but if it is as to arch height, then I would like to know the answer as well, since I look for as firm and high an arch as I can find.

Sorry Fletch-For me to answer your question, I would need to get a tape and measure the thing. Ask the seller to do that. My sneakers are the regular running type and they fit very well, if that helps. Stanley O. epstein

These don't provide much of an arch support, but I have a bunion on my left foot and they're wide enough to allow for that, even with socks. Depending on the severity of your bunion, these may be fine for you.

I have flat feet and they really help. My husband has arches and they help him. I think they would help with narrow feet and high arches. Put them under the removable pads in your tennis or other shoes.

For me they do, but I don't have weak ankles to begin with, and as long as you tie the shoelaces really tight you'll have support. I ordered 0.5 size bigger (usually I wear 5.5 but I ordered a 6) and it fit perfectly. I found these to be extremely comfortable, especially since the rentals that I was using were extremely uncomfortable, these feel way better.

If you can remove the original liner,in one piece, they should work. You are taking a chance on ruining the shoe because sneakers are coming out with really glued on insoles and they are part of the shoe structure. I can't walk in these flat shoes so I get desperate sometimes. You could look for a 3/4 SOFT arch support or even a flat foam heel pad-something with a low profile, to raise and protect your heel and arch. They usually come with adhesive but glue dots work to hold them in place because the darn things slide around and mess with your foot/leg/back muscles. I find those gel heel pads rock too much too but you could try them. You just can't add too much height or stiffness. If you can lift the heel part of a glued in insole and not have uneven tears, and get one of those low profile heel pads under it without removing the entire insole-fantastic. Lady Foot Locker was carrying Spenco inserts and you can try them in your shoes at a store to see if they will even work for you.

I would say light/medium arch support. The best arch support I've ever seen in an athletic shoe is by the brand Brooks, you should check that sneaker brand out. They are arch support specific so you can get light, medium, or high.

I can't say. All I know is that I have less foot and arch pain when I wear them. I would google "fallen arches" and "arch supports" to research the matter. All I know is they work for me, and they are cheaper on Amazon than in the local stores.
