Description
Flat feet still need support – but a tall arch can feel like a rock under a low arch. The Pinnacle Low uses a lower semi-rigid shell contoured to low and flat arches, so it supports and guides the foot while staying comfortable.
It is a good middle ground for people with low arches who find the regular Pinnacle too high, and who want something gentler than the firm Pinnacle Maxx.
Who It’s For
- Flat feet and low arches
- Overpronation
- Arch, heel and knee discomfort linked to flat feet
- People who find taller arch supports uncomfortable
What It Helps With
Flat or low arches let the foot roll too far inward (overpronation), pulling the heel, ankle and knee out of line. PowerStep designed this insole to help relieve and prevent pain linked to overpronation, including:
- Plantar fasciitis (heel and arch pain)
- Heel spurs
- Achilles tendonitis
- Metatarsalgia (ball-of-foot pain)
- Morton’s neuroma
- Arch pain and tired, aching feet
- Shin splints
- Ankle, knee, hip and lower-back pain
- Bunions
- Hammer toes and claw toes
- Calluses and corns
Persistent or severe foot pain should be checked by a podiatrist or physician. If you have diabetes, neuropathy or poor circulation, ask your doctor before using any orthotic insole.
Key Features
- Lower arch shell shaped for flat feet and fallen arches – supportive without feeling too tall
- Deep heel cradle that helps control the inward roll of overpronation
- Two layers of cushioning from heel to toe
- Odor-control top fabric that reduces heat, friction and perspiration

Care & Replacement
Spot clean with a mild detergent, do not submerge in water, and air dry. PowerStep advises that insoles typically last 6 months or longer depending on how often and how hard they are worn – replace them when the cushioning flattens or your discomfort returns.
Frequently Asked Questions
Pinnacle Low or Pinnacle Maxx for flat feet?
Choose the Low for comfortable support that matches a low arch. Choose the Maxx if your feet roll inward a lot and you need maximum control – it is firmer and adds a heel post.
How is it different from the regular Pinnacle?
The Pinnacle Low has a lower arch shell made for flat feet and fallen arches; the standard Pinnacle has a medium arch.
Can I wear it in dress shoes?
Yes, if the shoe has a removable insole and enough depth. For tight dress shoes, the Pinnacle 3/4 is usually a better fit.
How long does it take to get used to them?
Most people adjust within 1 to 3 days. Wear them for a few hours the first day and add time each day. Mild awareness of the arch at first is normal; sharp pain is not – stop and ask us or your podiatrist.
How long do PowerStep insoles last?
PowerStep says 6 months or longer with normal use. Daily wear, running or heavy work shortens that – replace them when the cushioning feels flat, the arch feels softer, or your pain returns.
Can I use my HSA or FSA card?
Yes – PowerStep lists this insole as HSA/FSA eligible.
