What is arch support?
Arch support is a feature found in conventional shoes or insoles that aims to maintain the curve of the foot's arch, which is formed by bones, tendons, and ligaments. The foot's arch supports your body weight while standing and acts as a natural shock absorber during weight-bearing activities like walking or running.

This is because not using the muscles in our feet can cause them to weaken and atrophy over time. By providing artificial support, shoes with arch support may hinder our feet' ability to support themselves, potentially leading to weaker foot muscles.
