High Instep

My two year old daughter’s feet have grown very similar to mine–that is wide, with a high arch and a high instep.
The instep makes it difficult to buy shoes.
I was curious as to whether there were any steps that could be taken to address these issues now, or is she simply doomed to have horrible feet like her father.

    Without seeing her feet, I can’t say whether an orthotic or brace might be indicated. It might be necessary to buy her shoes at a better store such as Stride Rite. You might have her examined by a podiatrist and get more information.
