Do any of you use shoe inserts for the arch when on your feet all day? I've got an insert for my heel, but it doesn't do jack-sh!t, and the archs of my feet hurt. How much did you pay for yours if you use them?

I use inserts on most of my shoes for work. Though nothing specialized, just some dr. scholls foam or gel.

I bought Dr. Scholl's gel inserts for a pair of work shoes. They helped, although they tend to slide around a bit.

I use gel insoles in my regular shoes (the sport kind), but I have the specially made doctors ones for my athletic shoes.

I had a problem with my right heel a while back, thought it was a bone spur but it eventually went away on it's own, and tried the gel heel insert with no luck. Then I tried the Dr. Scholl's "tri-comfort orthotics" full insert and that was a big help.

It's only on my right arch, but I've got heel inserts. I'll try the Dr. Scholls or something, then. Thanks. =]
