Basically GYW shoes and their sturdiness keep my feet not hurting, I've got plantar fasciitis. I've been thinking about buying these Herring boots that are Blake welted.

I know blake shoes are more flexible, but how much more? Do they offer arch support? I know cemented shoes completely lose their sole shape after a while in comparison.

I have several Blake constructed shoes that offer fine arch support and some GYW that don’t.
Just get some Superfeet and be done with it.

First, blake shoes are not welted.

I haven’t found blake construction to be any less supportive than welted shoes. You can certainly find poorly made welted shoes that aren’t supportive.
