PowerStep Pinnacle insoles: $49.99
Podiatrists recommend the PowerStep Pinnacle insoles for foot pain related to athletics, injuries and plantar fasciitis. “Not only do they help you not pronate your foot inwards, but they provide excellent support.

Plantar fasciitis insoles: $19.99
For shoes that need a comfort upgrade, these insoles add support without shifting around or flattening too quickly. More than 75,000 shoppers have weighed in, giving them a 4.5-star rating. “These are the absolute best insoles I have ever purchased. They are better than insoles two-to-three times the price. They did not require any break-in period [and] provided immediate comfort and support. I don’t like the insoles that you have to cut to fit because the arch and heel are always misaligned. These can be ordered in your true size and fit perfectly.”

They stay put [and] don’t bunch up,” said one reviewer.
