These orthopedic shoes feature a sturdy outsole that guarantees maximum grip. Inside, an orthopedic insole or custom orthotic can be added. A reinforced heel counter protects the ankle and reduces shock. The closure system, with laces or Velcro straps, adjusts perfectly to the morphology of each foot.

For whom are orthopedic shoes made?

Orthopedic shoes are primarily intended for people with foot problems, or bone and joint disorders. They can be prescribed by a doctor or podiatrist in the case of a proven pathology. In such cases, they can be used as an orthopedic device, contributing to healing. In particular, they are used for chronic wounds in diabetic patients, arthritis or rheumatism sufferers, accident victims or those undergoing rehabilitation.

Even in the absence of pathology, the use of orthopedic shoes is beneficial to the health of the feet and the body in general. Anyone can wear these shoes, whatever their lifestyle, age or morphology. In this case, orthopedic shoes serve as a preventive device. They increase comfort, support, stability and prevent premature wear and tear on feet and joints.

How to choose a pair of orthopedic shoes

There are different models of orthopedic shoes, depending on individual needs and style.
First of all, you need to determine what occasion you’ll be wearing your shoes for. Do you need a pair for your daily commute, for occasional wear, for sporting activities or for staying at home?
If you’re looking for a classic, all-purpose model, opt for classic orthopedic loafers, to be worn for any occasion at work or for a night out. If you’re looking for a feminine and stylish pair of summer shoes, opt for cushioned wedges to add style to your look.
If you suffer from a medical condition or are recovering or rehabilitating, you’ll probably need a more specific orthopedic device, such as orthopedic walking boots.

If you don’t have any foot problems, any model will do. If you have a foot or joint pathology, you can ask your doctor, podiatrist or physiotherapist for advice on recommending a particular type of shoe (foot shape, sole, reinforcement, type of closure, etc.)

When should orthopedic shoes be worn?
