I developed plantar fasciitis in my 30's a decade ago and had chronic arch & heel pain in my feet until I went to a podiatrist and paid $400 for a pair of custom orthotics (they are never covered by insurance). They changed my life and I'm now pain free. I also wear the NB field shoes, as the wide width best accomodates the orthotics. I found wide Honigs plain black plate shoes on their site which serve that purpose, but I think they've come out with a new design since I bought those three years ago. Good luck.
