One of the most common sources of foot pain is plantar fasciitis—a condition in which foot tissue becomes inflamed and causes stabbing pain near the heel. The pain is typically worse in the morning or after sitting for a long time.
To treat plantar fasciitis, many medical professionals recommend using shoes with cushioned arch support to remove pressure from your heel and reduce the pain. Many leather dress shoes are uncomfortable and offer little arch support, which poses a problem for people who need to work in the office with foot pain.

What Dress Shoes Are Best for Plantar Fasciitis?
Plantar fasciitis often causes pain after a period of inactivity. Sitting or lying down for too long could lead to considerable discomfort once you stand up. Conversely, high-impact activities such as running or jumping could also cause pain.
During a long day in the office, you will likely sit and stand repeatedly, which may cause your plantar fasciitis to flare up. Rather than suffer through the pain all day, find dress shoes that:
- Are comfortable. Shoes that are too tight or too stiff will only make your feet hurt more.
- Provide cushion. Shoes with thick insoles and extra cushion can reduce the pain of standing or walking.
- Are supportive. Shoes with good arch support distribute weight evenly across your foot, so there’s less pressure on your heel.
Amberjack’s Dress Shoes for Plantar Fasciitis
At Amberjack, we developed the most technologically advanced dress-casual shoes for comfort and durability. What makes our shoes so effective for foot pain?
- Arch support. Our shoes have a fancy foam in the arch support that uses heat to match your foot shape. The foam is comfortable and durable and spreads your weight across your entire foot to keep sensitive areas from flaring.
- Dual-density outsole. We created a proprietary TPU outsole with dual-density material for maximum performance. The heel uses strong hiking-boot material for support, and the front has high-performance athletic technology for flexibility. You can wear these shoes all day without tiring or injuring your feet.
