Choosing the Right Aetrex Arch Support for Your Foot Type

Aetrex arch supports are designed to provide support and comfort to your feet, and can help to relieve pain and discomfort caused by overpronation, underpronation, and other foot problems. With a variety of arch support options available, it's important to choose the right one for your foot type.

Understanding Your Foot Type

The first step in choosing the right Aetrex arch support is to understand your foot type. There are three main foot types:

• Overpronation: When your foot rolls inward excessively when you walk or run. This can cause pain in your feet, ankles, knees, and hips.
• Underpronation: When your foot rolls outward excessively when you walk or run. This can cause pain in your feet, ankles, and knees.
• Neutral: When your foot rolls inward or outward only slightly when you walk or run. This is considered the ideal foot type.

You can determine your foot type by looking at the wear pattern on your shoes. Overpronators will have more wear on the inside of their shoes, while underpronators will have more wear on the outside of their shoes. Neutral pronators will have even wear across the bottom of their shoes.

Choosing the Right Arch Support

Once you know your foot type, you can choose the right Aetrex arch support. Aetrex offers a variety of arch supports, including:

• Overpronation arch supports: These arch supports are designed to provide support and stability to your feet, and to help to correct overpronation. They are typically made from a firm material, such as plastic or carbon fiber.
• Underpronation arch supports: These arch supports are designed to provide support and cushioning to your feet, and to help to correct underpronation. They are typically made from a softer material, such as foam or gel.
• Neutral arch supports: These arch supports are designed to provide support and comfort to your feet, and to help to maintain a neutral foot position. They are typically made from a medium-firm material, such as EVA foam.

How to Choose the Right Size Arch Support

To choose the right size arch support, you will need to measure your arch length.

Once you have your arch length, you can refer to the Aetrex sizing chart to find the right size arch support.

How to Wear Arch Supports
