I’m just now getting this 2023 but you should have WAY more likes and views. Shame on the KZbin algorithm.

I have had terrible feet problems from wearing thick soled boots for many years. My arches started collapsing and I suffered for years with plantar fasciitis. I knew something wasn't right. I ditched the boots and walked barefoot as much as possible and switched to minimal shoes and running sandals. It took months to strengthen my feet but now I am going on year two with no problems with my feet whatsoever and my feet feel great. Everyone around me refuse to listen to me and they keep wearing their thick soled shoes with arch support as if that will make their feet feel better. Now my wife is suffering from plantar fasciitis and she thinks just pressing her arches on a golf ball will fix the problem and refuses to give up her arch support shoes.

Do you have updated recommendations on transition shoes for women. I have have had plantar fasciitis for 6 years plus. I used to run, then walk. I am currently doing water running to easy pain in feet and knee joint. I have been wearing a thick soled “stabilizing” shoe for the past 2 years. I’ve also seen two highly recommend podiatrists, had a night boot, had physical therapy, prescription orthotics ( twice, very expensive...did nothing) and on and on.... your videos are the first thing that have really helped. I do foot exercises morning and night, just got toe separators (which really help with pain). I have been using your recommendations on trigger points, which have also helped. I had just ordered another pair of stabilization walking shoes, which I returned. I need a good transition shoe. You are the best!

[@jaybrenner8868]

[@jaybrenner8868]

Change that perfect video. Bought the lems primal 2. Great shoes but needed 1 to transition to them. Bought the exact pair your holding. Altra provision 2.0. Didn't try the newer 2.5 as I read altra is stating to narrow their shoes.The 2.0 is perfect. I dont like taking them off. Thanks as always Jay.

great! :)

I'm torn between getting the nano 5.0's and the 6.0's as far as toe box is concerned. Any suggestions? Will the 6.0 do or should I stick with the 5.0's?

[@jimboslice7403]

what kind of shoes should i wear to build up to the altra foot strengthening shoes? in the video you suggested to wear the altras for a few hours and then take them off. im at work for 6-8 hours at a time so thers no way i can wear them the whole time right away.

I'm looking for a flat shoe with a wide toe box and I'm having a hard time finding one because I have very fat, wide feet. I usually wear a 6E shoe but I haven't been able to find any 6E minimalist shoes. Does anyone have some recommendations for me to help me find a good shoe for my plantar fasciitis that will fit my feet? Thank you.

Barefoot shoe

[@playaprinnces]

What about shoes for in the shower? I know your not supposed to be barefoot when you have PF, and my feet always hurt in the shower.

[@freeheelpainhelp]

crocs are usually the best option for shower

[@playaprinnces]

Do they have arch support?

[@freeheelpainhelp]

+playaprinnces the Rx version one does

[@jeremylavis9541]

Thank you for your excellent videos. They are helping me recover.

[@rikybologna3579]

Plantar Fasciitis Survival Guide Is lowest drop available the best choice, or are 0 mm and 4 mm both the same thing? Thank you.

[@Julie-my6ds]

Better go down gradually. If you're used to 12mm for example, go down to maybe 8mm or 6. And continue on that way.
