Best Insoles for Morton's Neuroma 2024

9 January 2024  |  Eugene

Morton’s Neuroma can be a real pain in the foot, with your injured nerves causing a horrible pain in the balls of your feet that can make everyday tasks miserable. It can cause a great deal of pain at the ball of your foot and your middle toes, making it impossible to enjoy staying on your feet. Life needn’t stop running smoothly just because one little nerve does, as simply slipping in a pair of insoles can help you manage the pain of Morton's neuroma and even encourage recovery.

There are numerous insoles claiming to be the "Best Insoles for Morton's Neuroma" but amid all of the bluster, how do you know which insole is best suited for your needs? Luckily, our insole experts here at ShoeInsoles.co.uk have the knowledge to save you the leg work, selecting our Top Insoles for Morton's Neuroma.

Our Overall Best Insoles for Morton's Neuroma

Powerstep Original Full Length Orthotic Insoles

Powerstep Original Full Length Orthotic Insoles

Why We Love Them...

 Provide medical-grade support to the balls of the feet
EVA foam works to cushion the feet and reduce pain

 Everyday wear in most footwear to reduce discomfort
 Taking pressure off your metatarsals as you walk

Not the Best For...

 Those not looking for robust arch support (See our solution)

Editor's Verdict: While Morton's neuroma can often feel as though it's purely an impact-related condition, wearing insoles that provide a lack of arch support can be causing just as much stress on the balls of your feet. The Powerstep Original Full Length Orthotic Insoles are our favourite pick for arch support, and provide enough cushioning to take the pressure off all areas of the foot.


Best Morton's Neuroma Insoles for High Heels and Fashion Shoes

Pedag Queen Metatarsal Supports

Pedag Queen Metatarsal Supports

Why We Love Them...

 Narrow design perfect for reducing pain in high-heeled shoes
 Latex ball of foot cushioning alleviates Morton's neuroma pain
 Self-adhesive backing helps them stay put in your shoes

Ideal For...

 Those with ball of foot pain caused by high heels and tight footwear
 Open-toe shoes and sandals without much cushioning
 Tighter footwear without room for a larger insole

Not the Best For...

 Use in sports shoes or for high impact activities (See our solution)

Editor's Verdict: High heels and fashionable footwear can complete an outfit, but it often comes at a cost for your feet. The Pedag Queen Metatarsal Supports are designed to boost the comfort of high heels and fashion shoes, providing some much needed cushioning to the balls of the feet. These are a must-have for high heel wearers with Morton's neuroma, as they take pressure off your forefoot without affecting the overall style of your footwear.

Sof Sole Airr Insoles

Why We Love Them...

 Provide excellent cushioning to the balls of the feet
 Help to reduce fatigue from long periods of standing or walking
 COOLMAX layer helps to keep feet fresh and odour-free

Ideal For...

 Those who work on their feet for hours in the day
 Morton's neuroma that flares up due to excess fatigue
 Shoes with hard and unforgiving soles

Not the Best For...

 Those with stability or overpronation issues (See our solution)

Editor's Verdict: If you're purely looking for cushioning to take the pain away, look no further than a pair of insoles with a dense gel base to provide that "walking on air" feeling. The Sof Sole Airr Insoles feature a gel forefoot combined with air capsules at the heel, converting a maximum amount of impact into kinetic energy. This means your metatarsals will feel plenty of relief from your Morton's, allowing you to walk with comfort.


Best Morton's Neuroma Insoles for Sports

Pedag Viva Sport Insoles

Pedag Viva Sport Insoles

Why We Love Them...

 Combine robust arch support with targeted ball of foot cushioning
 Micro-air chambers stand up to harsh impacts from sports
 Contours to support the gait and enhance stability

Ideal For...

 Ball of foot pain and metatarsal pain among athletes
 Those with a running style that causes high forefoot impact
 Use in most types of athletic footwear

Not the Best For...

 Particularly tight-fitting shoes or fashion footwear (See our solution)

Editor's Verdict: Taking part in sports can be a particularly bad trigger for Morton's neuroma, as the intense movements can cause high levels of impact, often centred around the balls of your feet. The Pedag Viva Sport Insoles provide some of the most powerful ball of foot cushioning available, as they're designed with a micro-air chamber layer that targets the metatarsals. They also provide great arch support, ideal for improving the gait to reduce high pressure zones.


Best Metatarsal Pads for Morton's Neuroma

Pedag T Form Metatarsal Supports

Pedag T Form Metatarsal Pads for Morton's Neuroma

Why We Love Them...

 Provide cushioning and support to the metatarsal area
 Target the key area of the foot for Morton's neuroma relief
 Self-adhesive design keeps them in place in any footwear

Ideal For...

 Those with adequate arch support needing targeting forefoot cushioning
 Splayfoot and toe pain requiring a healthy foot position
 Tight or revealing footwear unsuitable for full insoles

Not the Best For...

 Those requiring added arch support and stability (See our solution)

Editor's Verdict: While a full pair of insoles is recommended to get the most in terms of cushioning and support, targeting the main area of Morton's neuroma pain can often be effective. The Pedag T Form Metatarsal Supports are designed to sit under the metatarsals, providing an anatomically correct position for the foot while cushioning the forefoot, helping to alleviate the symptoms of a range of ball of foot issues including splayfoot and Morton's neuroma.
