My pair of Chuck Taylors had no support when I bought them 25 years ago, and they still don’t have any support today.
Arch support and comfy shoes are a perpetual cycle. You need those shoes because you wore those types of shoes and it made your feet “weak”.
It’s not the support, it’s the wear of the sole. They don’t wear down evenly and can eventually negatively affect how you walk and cause issues. Even if you wear flat barefoot shoes.
You do understand that people have different feet right? You being a flatfoot doesn’t mean others are
I’m not. The arches are there, and I own work boots with good support and all that. I just don’t where shoes like that all the time, so all the muscles and tendons and ligaments in my feet never got weakened. You weren’t born needing shoes.
I broke my left arm 25 years ago. And it’s still broken today.
Healing bones is a perpetual cycle. You need that arm because you’ve lived with it, it made your limbs weak.
Big shitpost energy, five stars!

Doesn’t that usually go together with shoes starting to fall apart as well?
