Arch Support & Orthotic Friendly Shoes NZ
Arch Support & Orthotic Friendly Shoes NZ
Real support underfoot, for feet that need looking after.
Sore arches, tired feet at the end of a shift, plantar fasciitis, fallen arches — the right footbed changes the whole day. This collection brings together the styles we trust for genuine arch support, across every brand we carry.
Not all support is the same, so it helps to know the difference before you buy.
Removable footbeds and orthotic friendly
If you wear custom orthotics or prescribed inserts, you need a shoe whose own footbed lifts out to make room. These brands do exactly that:
- Ziera removable Super Support footbeds with a moulded arch and deep heel cup, on wide fitting lasts. The most accommodating option we stock for orthotics.
- Skechers Arch Fit podiatrist-certified removable insoles, in a huge range of everyday and walking styles.
- Alfie & Evie removable memory foam innersoles in most styles, if you want orthotic friendly without giving up fashion.
Built-in contoured support
Birkenstock footbeds are moulded cork and latex, shaped with a pronounced arch, a deep heel cup and a raised toe bar. The support is excellent — but on most classic styles the footbed is part of the sandal and doesn't lift out, so they suit people who want built-in support rather than somewhere to put an orthotic.
Support and width together
Plenty of people need both. If a standard shoe pinches across the forefoot as well as aching underfoot, start with our wide fit women's shoes most of them are supportive too.
Not sure what you need?
We fit feet for a living. Bring your orthotics into our Queenwood store and we'll check them in a few styles properly, or ring us on 07 974 9731 and we'll help you narrow it down before you order. Our size guides can help you measure at home first.
