Best Hoka Shoes for Plantar Fasciitis and Flat Feet
We recommend the Hoka Arahi 6 Shoes for Plantar Fasciitis with Flat Feet due to their cushioning, medial arch support and J-Frame midsole.
Pronation is the movement of the foot from outwards to inwards when you walk, and it is an ordinary and necessary movement of the foot. However, poor control of pronation moments due to flat feet can cause Plantar Fasciitis. The medial arch support on the Hoka Arahi 6 help to control this motion when walking
The J-Midsole and cushioning make for a more enjoyable walk due to increased comfort.

We recommend the Hoka Bondi 8 for those with Plantar Fasciitis and an average arch height due to their plush cushioning, neutral sole and 4mm heel drop.
The plush cushioning allows your feet to sink into the sole like walking on a cloud. The neutral sole means that there is no additional tilt or angles of support present in a stability trainer; this is important as the additional support of a stability shoe is not needed for a standard or high arch.
The 4mm heel drop maintains an even distribution of force across the feet and knees when standing.

Best Hoka Shoes for Plantar Fasciitis and High Arches
We recommend the Hoka Rincon 3 for Plantar Fasciitis if you have a high arch foot due to their EVA midsole and Metarocker.
The EVA midsole is a lightweight material used in custom insoles to control the pronation moments associated with Plantar Fasciitis.
The metarocker reduces the stretch placed on the Plantar Fascia, which can irritate Plantar Fasciitis.
