Plantar Fasciitis is a pain in the boot. Dansko is quality shoe that can help in the treatment of plantar fasciitis. But what are the best Dansko shoes for treating Plantar Fasciitis? Well, what you want in a shoe to help with Plantar Fasciitis is a shoe that provides comfort and padding on the plantar surface of the foot while at the same time providing solid arch support. Below I have listed what I believe to be the best Dansko shoes for people with Plantar Fasciitis:
Dansko Prima– This shoe features a shock absorbing polyurethance rocker outsole to help decrease pressure on the plantar fascia. What happens is stress on the plantar fascia can create pain across the course of the plantar fascia making the fasciitis worse. The other feature this shoe has is a protective heel counter to allow the heel to move up and down while providing stability.
Dansko Arden– This shoe features a comfort insole which is removeable for a personal orthotic, so you may want to consider this shoe and purchase a separare orthotic since this shoe is designed to be orthotic friendly.
Dansko Professional Leather– This shoe also features a polyurethance outsole for shock absorbtion, as well as a generously padded instep to provide support and pressure relief to the plantar fascia. The PVC inner fram also reduces torque and pronation providing stability to both the foot and the plantar fascia.
Dansko Karl– If you are looking for a clog the Karl provides all the same characteristics of the professional leather listed above and is a shoe you can consider.
