![]() ![]() ![]() Orthotic insoles provide anatomical arch support that helps to relieve foot pain and plantar fasciitis, while the faux-fur interior (in black or brown) is extra warm against cold floors. OK, so they're not the most attractive slipper you've ever seen-but when it comes to support, this favorite of Sutera's is in a class all its own. 69.95 Available at Vionic OrthoFeet Charlotte Slippers Sutera loves that they're adjustable, have an indoor/outdoor sole and come in 6 fun colors. The arch support, thanks to a built-in orthotic footbed, makes these cozy terrycloth kicks way more functional (and better for your feet) than the typical slipper.

Look for house shoes with arch support, proper cushioning and shock absorption, and replace them if they show signs of wear-or after about a year of use. Wearing slippers or sneakers at home (that you only wear inside) is an easy way to cushion your feet and protect those precious fat pads while also helping to keep your toes warm during the colder months. It doesn't have to be the same pairs you wear out and about, though and in fact, there's a yuck factor with wearing outdoor shoes inside your house, says Sutera.

You might feel foot pain simply reading through that list-and as we all know, when your feet hurt, it's hard to think about anything else, let alone stay active and exercise. "Walking barefoot can cause pain and inflammation over time due to lack of support and the slow atrophy of the fat pads on the bottom of your feet that function as shock absorbers," says Jackie Sutera, D.P.M., FAFCAS, a board-certified doctor of podiatric medicine and surgery in New York. If you have pain after shuffling around indoors all day, without proper padding to support your foot, you may be experiencing problems such as metatarsalgia (pain in the ball of the foot), plantar fasciitis (arch and/or heel pain), neuromas, stress fractures, tendinitis (including Achilles tendinitis) and ankle instability or pain.
