Specialized arthritic footwear and arthritic shoes can bring much needed relief to foot problems caused by arthritis. As well as proper supportive footwear, orthotics and forefoot supports can also assist.
On this page you will find our recommendations for arthritic shoes that are both stylish and anatomically supportive.
Arthritic shoes should provide the following features:
- High, wide toe box (high and wide space in the toe area) - Removable insoles for fitting flexibility or the option to insert orthotics if necessary. - Rocker Soles designed to facilitate ambulating (walking) and to reduce stress and pain at the ball-of-the-foot.
The proper footwear and orthotics will reduce pressure to provide a comfortable and healthy environment for the foot.
