Anyone else out there with a high arc? What type of walking shoe is best?

    I love my Nike Dual Fusions... they aren't super expensive either. They're good with my arch and have fantastic ankle support, my knees don't hurt when I job/walk!!

    I would suggest going to a running store to be fitted. They will fit you for walking, running or anything else. Or they should.

    Be careful, I have high arches and my feet would turn in due to it. I eventually developed chronic archiles tenden problems. I have been wearing custom ortopedics in my shoes and am getting physical therapy, but am frustrated, as I am limited as to how long I can be on my feet, and it makes it hard to get the exercise I want and need to lose weight and be healthy.
