The Ferro Boots lack Arch Support howeverthe Insoles that come with the Birts are not glued and can be easily removed and replaced with an Orthopedic Arch Supportthat does not interfer with the Ferro Birt Fit which is good and even improved withArch Support Insoles . If you don't mind spending a few extra dollars for Arch Support Insoles and improved Fit which also extends the durability of the FerroAldo Birts then this boot is Excellent !
