When Your Child’s Feet Hurt, Effective Arch Support Can Make a Real Difference

If your child complains about foot pain or heel pain, gets tired quickly, or you notice their ankles rolling inward, it is easy to feel stuck between “they’ll grow out of it” and “do we need a specialist?” Footminders® KIDS are podiatrist-designed kids orthotic insoles that provide the kind of firm arch support and heel stability many children need to feel better in everyday shoes.

  • Helps support flat feet and low arches with structured pediatric arch support
  • Helps improve stability for children who roll inward (overpronation)
  • Deep heel cup to keep the heel aligned and supported
  • Heel cushioning for comfort during school, play, and sports
  • 3/4-length design fits most kids’ shoes without crowding toes
  • Designed for sneakers, school shoes, sports shoes, and casual footwear

Signs Your Child May Benefit From Kids Orthotic Shoe Inserts

  • Foot or heel pain after activity, long walks, or standing
  • Ankles collapse inward when standing or walking (overpronation)
  • Shoes wear down faster on the inside edge
  • “Growing pains,” tired legs, or frequent complaints about discomfort

Simple Parent Check: Look at the Ankles From Behind

Have your child stand naturally. If the ankles roll inward and the heel looks tilted instead of straight, that often suggests overpronation. Supportive children’s orthotic insoles can help provide structure and stability inside the shoe.

Fit and Comfort Tips

  • Place the orthotics in the shoe over (or instead of) the factory insole depending on shoe depth
  • Break-in: start with 1 to 2 hours on day one, then increase daily as comfort allows
  • Make sure the heel sits fully in the heel cup for best support

Choose the size that matches your child’s shoe size and add to cart to give your child supportive arch comfort in minutes. If pain is severe, persistent, or worsening, consult a healthcare professional.

Flat feet or lower arches may cause a biomechanical imbalance named overpronation

Overpronation caused by flat feet may result in lower-body problems

Overpronation causes the child to develop an abnormal walking pattern. If not corrected, overpronation in children may cause severe foot pain in the short term , and often results in painful lower-body conditions later in life such as Children’s Heel Pain (Sever’s Disease), Children’s Knee pain (Osgood-Schlatters disease), general foot pain, ankle pain and/or aching legs.

By supporting the arches, Footminders KIDS orthotics help correct this condition, preventing potentially severe lower-body problems.

​How do I know if my child needs Footminders KIDS orthotic insoles?

How do I know if my child needs Footminders KIDS orthotic insoles?

From the day they’re born, all children have flat feet. By the age of 4 or 5, the arches usually start to develop. However, with some children the feet remain flat, or with very low arches. It is important to determine whether your child suffers from excessive pronation (rolling inward of the ankles). Overpronation is easily diagnosed. If you draw an imaginary line from the tip of the ankle bone downwards and the line ends away from the foot (see example to the left), your child overpronates and his/her feet need correcting.

How do I determine the right size Footminders KIDS insoles for my child?

Please use the sizing guide on the left to determine the correct size for your child. We recommend that you measure the length of his/her foot from the back of the heel to the tip of the big toe.

NOTE: If your child’s foot measures 8 inches or more, please try our adult-sized orthotics in size X-SMALL or above.

Frequently Asked Questions about Footminders orthotics

Footminders orthotic technology enables our products to be firm enough to provide needed arch support, but pliable enough to provide cushioning, and to mold to your feet after a few days of wear, providing maximum walking comfort. They are made of a medium-density material called E.V.A. The major advantage of E.V.A. is that it is supportive and ‘giving’ at the same time.

Because of the ‘foot-friendly’ materials used in Footminders and its anatomic shape (following the foot’s natural curves), most of our customers find them comfortable immediately after inserting in them their shoes. Some people, however, need some time to get used to them, and for the orthotics to mold to you feet. If the orthotic feels strange or uncomfortable at first, we recommend you wear them only for one hour per day, and increase the wearing time by an extra half to one hour every day, until they feel completely comfortable.

All of our orthotic insole products are sold exclusively in pairs, the main reason being the answer to the question below.

Most people experience pain in only their left or right foot (or heel or knee), not in both. However, you will still need to wear the orthotics in BOTH shoes, because wearing the orthotic in only one shoe will raise one side slightly and may put your body out of balance, causing your hips to be out of aligment. So please always wear the orthotic insoles in BOTH shoes.

There’s a big difference between regular insoles/footbeds and orthotics! Regular footbeds are mainly designed to provide a cushioning effect and shock absorption. They may feel comfortable at first, however they do not address any biomechanical problems i.e. they do not correct overpronation. Orthotics are a functional device, designed to correct and optimize our foot function. Some footbeds also feature an arch support, but often the support is too weak to have any effect or benefit, especially if the footbeds are made of very soft materials.

How do orthotics exactly work? First of all, orthotics do a lot more than supporting the arches. Orthotics re-align the feet and ankles and restore ‘faulty’ foot function. In addition, orthotics provide an even weight distribution, taking pressure off sore spots (e.g. the heels, the ball of the foot, and corns in between toes and bunions). They also provide some degree of shock absorption, but this is not their main purpose. The main purpose of an orthotic insole is to improve foot function and in many cases this will reduce foot pain and prevent future problems and injury.

No, please don’t! The easiest way to clean Footminders orthotics is to simply wipe them with a warm soapy cloth. Please, do not soak them or put them in a dryer.

I've had these insoles in my shoes for a little over a week now and they seem to be getting rid of my lower leg and knee pain associated with my flat feet. At first, the insoles felt uncomfortable and it seemed like the arch was WAY to high, but after a few days of wear, they are starting to feel normal. The insoles do a good job of promoting the correct walking motion which I believe to be the cause of my leg pain. I recently took the insoles out after wearing them a week to see the difference in my walking motion and you can instantly feel how much the insoles are helping.

I had $400 custom shoe inserts made to correct my over pronation and flat feet. They helped for the first few months but wore out quickly. The doctor said that with all the walking I do I would have to replace them every three months. Yeah, right.

I ordered Footminders Comfort Orthotic Arch Support Insoles. They're in my walking shoes. Within a week of daily 3-mile walks my foot and ankle pain was gone due to the proper alignment of my feet. These are high quality, rigid supports - not squishy, flimsy inserts - yet the price is a tiny fraction of what I
paid a podiatrist to make custom inserts. What a relief!

I developed plantar fasciitis and needed a simple pair of flip flops for daily wear in summer. These are perfect for me. And, no foot pain when I wake up in the mornings after wearing these the day before. I hadn't tried the Footminders brand before, but I'll be purchasing more of them. Shipping was fast and on time. Thanks!

The built-in arch support is the next best thing to having custom orthotics, which we all know cost an arm and a leg. I have another pair and those are great too, but they cost $99. For the price, these work just as well and I'd definitely recommend anyone with foot issues or plantar fasciitis to purchase these. 5 stars!! They seem very well built, overall!

These are super nice. Do wait a few days because if you are not used to a lot of support, it feels strange when you first try them.I thought I was not going to get used to them, but after wearing a few times they feel much better now and appreciate the support they provide to my tired, flat feet.I have wide feet and these feel a bit loose so if you have very wide feet you will have no problem with the width at all.

These are great! I have flat feet and need arch support. If I don't wear custom inserts with my shoes, I end up with ankle pain (Plantar Fasciitis). I thought my days of wearing sandals was over, and I live near the beach! Glad to know now that I can have the look, feel, and convenience of sandals, but with decent arch support. Awesome!!

I have low arches and tender heels so most shoes do not provide enough support and cushioning for my feet. I have bought many different inserts to help, including Dr. Scholl's but I had not found any that provided relief over an extended period. My wife said to just go to a foot doctor and get custom insoles but I didn't want to go to that trouble and expense.Luckily I searched online and found the Footminders insoles. I have been wearing these insoles for about 2 weeks and I can say they are much better than any I have tried. They have good arch support and padding . They have relieved most of my foot pain and I highly recommend them.
