Because the posterior tibial tendon is not supporting the leg muscles properly, you may suffer from muscle stress and joint problems in the legs and feet. A medium or normal arch serves as flexible and efficient foot support. This type of arch helps in supporting your body weight and posture properly to help prevent foot pain of any kind. When your foot has quite an upward curve in the middle, you have a high arch in your feet.

Literal game-changer. Prefer something a little less squishy? These heel cups are made from a blend of rubber materials, offering firm cushioning. The patented fascia bar also applies pressure to your plantar fascia ligament, providing support for the back part of your arch. Choose from three different types: firm rubber, a hybrid of rubber and gel for semi-firmness, and soft gel. They also come in four sizes from small to extra-large. The arch and heel cup in these insoles are designed to provide moderate support for walking or standing on your feet for extended periods.

A low or medium arch depending on the flexibility of your foot is the best place to start.
Many people with flat feet don't experience any difficulties, but some suffer from pain in the heel or arch plantar fasciitis , swelling along the inside of the ankles, and knee and hip problems. The best insoles for flat feet support your arch and stabilize your heel, preventing overpronation. Typically, the best insoles for flat feet will offer a low, but supportive arch. Finding one that matches the contours of your foot is key.
While soft, cushioned insoles might seem like the best choice, what your feet really need is structural support. All of Tread Labs semi-custom insoles come in four arch heights to accommodate arch heights from low to extra high. If your arch is neither high nor low, you have the most common arch type - medium or moderate. But just because you have the most prevalent arch height, it doesn't mean you don't need insoles that offer arch support.
Actually, your feet still require proper support to prevent overpronation, especially if you maintain an active life. Runners, walkers, and cyclists in particular need additional arch support. Like those with low and high arches, people with medium arch height should look for an insole that offers firm support that is contoured to their arch. If you have worn insoles before, you have some idea of what to expect. If your footprint looks like a complete foot, then you have a flat arch.
Your foot probably rolls in pronates when you walk or run. Your low arches may contribute to muscle stress and joint problems. You could benefit from a walking shoe with a straight last and motion control to help stabilize your feet.
If you see little of your footprint, you likely have high arches. High arches may contribute to excessive strain on joints and muscles. Your feet may not absorb shock well, especially if you perform a lot of impact or jumping activities. When looking for a shoe, look for cushioning to compensate for your lack of natural shock absorption.
