Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common foot ailments. Caused by inflammation in the plantar fascia ligament (the ligaments connecting your heels to your toes), the condition is characterized by ongoing heel pain. When the plantar fascia becomes excessively stretched or strained<\/a><\/span>, it can develop little tears, which leads to swelling and dull or severe pain.\u00b9<\/p>\n For most people with plantar fasciitis, the first steps of the day are the most difficult\u2014and sometimes, the most painful. Generally, that pain tends to subside throughout the day. However, certain things can aggravate the condition and increase pain and discomfort, such as:<\/p>\n If you\u2019re one of the millions of people<\/a><\/span> a year who struggle with heel pain, you might think flip-flops or toe-post sandals are out of the question.\u00b2 But there are actually lots of flip-flops and thong sandals designed to prevent swollen connective tissue and foot pain in the heel bone. Here\u2019s where to find the best flip-flops and <\/span>women\u2019s sandals for plantar fasciitis<\/span><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Here at Vionic, we know how much pain and discomfort the wrong footwear can cause, and we believe your shoes shouldn\u2019t hold you back from living your life. If you have a foot problem and you\u2019re looking for how to relieve foot pain<\/a><\/span>, one of the most effective ways is a good pair of supportive shoes. Our podiatrist-designed plantar fasciitis shoes<\/a><\/span> are expertly engineered to alleviate various foot woes, and we make some of the best orthotic flip-flops for plantar fasciitis.<\/p>\n Vionic is proud to carry sole-soothing flip-flops with a traditional low profile and beachy silhouette. The injected EVA footbeds feature crave-worthy anatomical arch support, helping to promote your natural alignment while padding around the pool or prancing around in the sand.<\/p>\n We have toe-post sandals for men and women in classically sporty styles, as well as some embellished designs. When you browse our collections, you\u2019ll find options with leather uppers and microfiber-covered footbeds and durable, shock-absorbing rubber outsoles.<\/p>\n But that\u2019s not all. Viconic\u2019s toe-post sandals also feature contoured midsoles that are lightweight and flexible to promote maximum comfort. Plus, our midsoles absorb the shock of every step you take, reducing daily stress to your:<\/p>\n If you\u2019ve got plantar fasciitis, you might think you\u2019re restricted to wearing closed-toe plantar fasciitis shoes with special insoles. While we\u2019re all for orthotic inserts<\/a><\/span>, we also believe in the freedom to wear any footwear style you want\u2014even a sandal \u2014no matter what foot condition you have. You can rest assured knowing we also provide wide shoes for women<\/a><\/span> who suffer from plantar fasciitis. Get the orthotic contouring and stability wide feet crave, too.<\/p>\n So, how do we do it? The secret is our innovative Vio-Motion Support technology with triple-zone orthotics built right into the countoured footbed. This alleviates heel pain<\/a><\/span> and other discomforts while promoting your natural alignment.\u00b3 Unlike other flip-flops and toe-post sandals, the styles from Vionic have an unbelievably supportive fit<\/a><\/span> with a deep heel cup, contoured arches, and cushioning throughout.\u2074<\/p>\n Our sandals are biomechanically designed to support the entire length of your foot while hugging your arches. This reduces strain on the plantar fascia<\/a><\/span> and helps prevent inflammation.<\/p>\n Many of Vionic\u2019s thong sandals have an APMA Seal of Acceptance. This means the American Podiatric Medical Association approves the design of Vionic\u2019s thong sandal style and certifies that it offers sufficient anatomical arch support while benefiting foot health. Vionic is proud to be one of the few orthotic shoe brands that have demonstrated the ability to deliver adequate support, especially if you are a plantar fasciitis sufferer.<\/p>\n The best flip-flops for heel pain sufferers are from Vionic, but you don\u2019t have to take our word for it. A peer-reviewed study<\/a><\/span> showed our contoured Vionic<\/a><\/span> sandals are up to par with our best-selling orthotics for short-term plantar fasciitis pain treatment, one of the most effective sore feet remedies<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n The study also revealed that our toe-post orthopedic sandal offers more relief for plantar fasciitis than regular flat flip-flops. In fact, participants who wore our contoured supportive sandal for 12 weeks were nearly 70% more likely to experience improved symptoms than those who wore unsupportive styles.<\/p>\n Wanting to wear sandals in the spring and summer or on a warm vacation is completely understandable. But when you have heel pain, it\u2019s a little trickier to find the perfect sustainable shoes<\/a><\/span>. That said, there are lots of excellent options with built-in orthotics<\/a><\/span>, like the comfortable sandal styles you\u2019ll find at Vionic.<\/p>\n Flip-flops for plantar fasciitis should have:<\/b><\/p>\n If you want sandals that check all the boxes, Vionic has you covered.

That\u2019s why our walking and running shoes are designed with the comfort of your entire foot in mind. We\u2019re talking sturdy EVA outsoles with patterned tread for extra grip so you don\u2019t have to worry about those slippery beachside spots, plus lightweight, flexible midsoles with contouring and plush cushioning in all the right places. Our thoughtfully designed uppers<\/a><\/span> are often adjustable and made from high-quality materials that are unlikely to rub against your skin and cause blisters.\u2075<\/p>\n We\u2019ve got:<\/p>\n Each pair of shoes and sandals we create are engineered to support your natural alignment.

Arch support is incredibly important<\/a><\/span> when it comes to preventing inflammation that can lead to overpronation and plantar fasciitis. The human foot was not designed to walk on the hard, unforgiving surfaces you encounter everyday. Instead, your feet crave soft, giving surfaces like dirt or grass that mold to the shape of your foot, supporting your arches and the rest of your body. The orthotics in our post-toe flip flops mimic that soft texture so that your feet are protected every step of the way.<\/p>\n Whether you need warm-weather footwear for gardening, running errands, taking walks around your neighborhood, barbecuing at home, traveling, hanging out at the pool, or heading to the beach, Vionic has a stylish option that\u2019ll meet your needs.<\/p>\n Speaking of the beach, Vionic is your source for plantar fasciitis flip flops options.

The sleek, low profile, and classic thong-style straps of this orthotic sandal have the easy-breezy look you know and love and the orthotics are completely hidden within the footbeds so you don\u2019t have to worry about chunky, unsightly inserts bungling your stride or <\/i>your fashion statement.
