I strongly recommend getting on the barefoot train.
Ever since I made the transition to wearing minimalist footwear the pain in my achilles tendens, ankles, and knees have disappeared.
Xeroshoes is the footwear I get. Its basically like being barefoot.
Your body was created to go barefoot and modern day shoes actually train our bodies in a way that is harmful for us. Thats why we have so many problems today with knee and joint pain. Its because of these shoes with the "arch support" and stuff.
For thousands of years we've done great without it! Now when we introduced it, problems have come about.
I compare shoes to crutches. Its like walking with crutches for a while and then naturally your muscles and bones will weaken as you move in an unnatural way.
Imperfect analogy but yeah....get yourself a pair of xeroshoes or vibram barefoots or some other minimalist footware. You won't regret it!
