Freedom

★★★★★ 4.7 · 890+ fittings

An extraordinarily thin support with a gentle metatarsal rise, built for narrow shoes and sandals where a standard arch support won’t fit. Most people are comfortable in it within minutes, with almost no break-in period.

Fitted in person, not sold online

Arch supports only work when they match your foot. We size and adjust yours in store from 18 styles and 250 sizes, then you take a test walk before deciding.

Why it works

Most insoles support one arch. Your foot has four.

Twenty-six bones per foot, held in shape by four arches. Support only the inside one and the rest keep collapsing, which is why so many off-the-shelf insoles stop helping after a few weeks.

1

Medial arch

The inside arch everyone knows. Carries most of your body weight and the first to drop.

2

Lateral arch

Runs along the outside edge. Keeps your ankle from rolling outward as you push off.

3

Transverse arch

Crosses the middle of the foot. Spreads load side to side instead of into one hot spot.

4

Metatarsal arch

Sits behind the toes. Takes the pressure off the ball of the foot when you're on it all day.

Commonly fitted for

Where Freedom tends to fit

Freedom offers light support rather than firm correction, so it is usually fitted as a first step, as a second pair for narrow or dress shoes, or alongside a Trainer while you break that one in.

Foot pain Plantar fasciitis Flat feet Knee pain Back pain Hip pain

If your symptoms are long-standing or severe, we will usually start you on The Original instead and fit a Freedom alongside it. Compare all three ranges.

The range

Three levels of support

Which one you need depends on your symptoms and how long you're on your feet. We'll work it out together at your fitting.

Trainers

The Original, correcting you

Our firmest support, built to actively hold a dropped arch back into a corrected position. Proven over 35 years, it's the support of choice across the widest range of ages and foot problems.

Best for: severe flat feet, long-standing pain
Maintainers

Freedom, once you’re there

An extraordinarily thin, light support with almost no break-in. Built for narrow shoes and sandals, and for everyday wear once your feet are already tracking well.

Best for: narrow shoes, sandals, day-to-day wear
Relaxers

Comfort and prevention

Ultra-thin, super-flexible cushioning across three flexibility levels. Not built to correct serious pain, but a good way to keep your feet feeling good before problems start.

Best for: evenings, casual shoes, prevention
Questions

Before you come in

Because an arch support that isn't matched to your foot does very little. We take an imprint of both feet, choose from 18 styles and 250 sizes, then adjust the fit and have you walk on them. That part can't be done through a screen, and it's the part that makes them work.

About 45 minutes from walking in to walking out. That includes your free imprint analysis, the fitting itself, and a test walk around the store.

No, walk-ins are welcome at both stores and always have been. Booking a time just means we'll have someone ready for you when you arrive, which is worth doing on a Saturday.

Most people notice something on the test walk, before they've bought anything. That's deliberate. We'd rather you feel it first than take our word for it.

That's exactly what Freedom is built for. Its thin, low profile slips into narrow shoes, dress flats and open sandals that a standard arch support would crowd. Bring the pair you're struggling to fit and we'll check it at your fitting.

Every Ideal Feet arch support carries a lifetime warranty. Come back any time for a re-check or an adjustment, and if a support fails we'll replace it.

Come and stand on a pair

Free imprint analysis, free fitting, and a test walk before you decide anything.
