would this support and stabilize a flat foot ? Have lace ups, but they cut Into foot and eventually loosen up whike walking due to foot pronation.

I never had the lace ups, but I found that the velcro did not loosen up as I walked. I wear a size 12 shoe and they recommend XXL. I find the XL to be better since I can pull the velcro tighter.

I would think so. I wear them in my running shoes, dress shoes, ballet flats, etc and have never had a problem. Once you get them in the right spot, it really just positions your foot where it should be if everything were working right and you didn't have fallen arches etc. These are the only things that work to eliminate my pain and allow me to keep running and boxing when my feet are bad. It is worth a try if you want to keep up your activity level while healing .

I believe so. My son has flat feet and since he started using them about 4 years ago has had no problems at all. Highly recommended.

I would think so. Naturally, men have a bigger bone structure anyway so I would think that if you had a men's insole that it should conform better to your feet. I hope I answered your question to the best of my ability.

They would work great for fallen arches! If you were born with flat feet the arch might be too high for you.

Only tried it once, and it did go well. What you really need is a rigid form that will expand the sock, and allow your foot to slip in. THAT is what you need.

If the slit is on the impact zone of the sole of the shoe it will not secure it for a long time. It depends on the size and shape of the slit, how deep it is, and how hard you step on it. If it is a regular (walking) shoe, probably not a problem, If it is a running shoe...Please refer to the before mentioned statements....

The advantage is that is very quick to put on. No real disadvantage - other than with lace up you could go tighter, however at that point you are cutting off some circulation to your foot. Save lots of time. I would say a little more comfortable.

I am not sure if it works as well as it is with underpronation. It might needs to have shoes with full support of the ankle. I use it a lot because of my foot injury history from sport incidents while I was playing sports. I have a normal arch with no over/underpronation. The reason I am using it is to help my heel / medial / lateral longtiudinal arch to reduce pain instead of having foot surgery. I wear them since 10 years ago as it works well for me. I do not know what is about underpronation people have if the Powerstep products will work as well as for them.

I do believe the movements with your legs is still the same. Make sure there not to big, they may dig into the top of your shoe / foot.

I wouldn't tryit. The foot splint doesn't allow a decent stride. It prevents you from bending forward because of its placement.

It should. You adjust it with Velcro straps so it should be fine. My foot is always better the mornings after I remember to wear it. Highly recommend.

I think the pedals are a little too small for normal shoes but the pedals are still flat do I don't see why not. Matter of personal preference I suppose!!!

As long as the shoe has enough to hang from, flats shouldn't be a problem. If they are thong type shoes, they may not stay on since the prongs are rounded.

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.

If someone else initially laced the shoes and adjusted the tightness, then getting your foot in and out with one hand would work well. These would be very difficult to tighten with one hand. But most days there is no need to tighten them.

As long as you can adjust your foot rests accordingly to make up the difference in hight I would say it would work great.
