ABSTRACT:
A shoe including an arch support device that operates under tension to cradle the foot and lift the arch. In a preferred embodiment, the arch support arrangement includes an elastic strap attached on one end to the lateral portion of the top surface of the sole and on the other end to the upper by means of the lacing structure of the shoe and held in tension when the foot of the wearer is in the shoe and the lace is tightened. The degree of arch support can be adjusted by adjusting the tightness of the lacing. In another preferred embodiment, an insole with arch support padding may be placed into the shoe between the elastic strap and the foot of the wearer so that the strap and insole cradle and support the arch.
