Update: Skechers and Hola seem like same shoe with the soft sink in shoe. Vionics still our overall pick for support. Dr. Scholls arch support insole for cheapest alternative. One of our top questions is what shoes do you recommend. Many suggest Hoka and Brooks which we feel were once great but price has increased and support decreased. We love Vionics but feel the outer shell deteriorates 6m-1y. They're affordable and the inserts are still great for years to put in any shoe. The new up and coming back is skechers. Finally tried the arch support slip ins which are machine washable. Don't know about longevity, but they are affordable and supportive. We will follow up, but Skechers may have made a come back.
