My physical therapist recommended them for my chronic severe plantar fasciitis. I only wear them at home because they are ugly and wide. They fit reasonably well in indoor shoes and feel good in heels. They are worth their price. However after I bought them a friend gave me a pair of a different brand that starts with an O and they are better. They fit great and I love them. Not sure if the brand name is worth the price just depends on what you need and what you are willing to spend.
