Buy Impact Control Walking Shoes for Rigid Feet


“Rigid” feet are high arched and tend to stay straight and rigid at the moment of impact with the ground. They do not conform to the shape of the ground on impact. They leave a high-arch impression in wet sand. Stress fractures are more likely than with any other foot type. Rigid feet need impact control or well cushioned walking shoes.

Injuries from not wearing cushioned impact control walking shoes for rigid feet can be of the more serious variety. Typical injuries can include: stress fractures, shin splints, hip pain, and ankle sprains.


Rigid, high arch feet cause extreme wear on the outside of the shoe sole. The foot tends to roll out under weight.

When viewed from the back of the shoe the heels wear excessively on the outside edges of conventional walking shoes.
