If you want to maintain healthy comfortable feet, you need to make sure you are wearing orthopedic shoes. Poorly designed shoes can reduce foot comfort, contribute to such conditions as bunions, corns and calluses, and irritate sensitive, diabetic or swollen feet. Cushioned, roomy comfortable orthopedic shoes, however, can provide you with the proper foot care you need.
Comfortable orthopaedic shoes should provide dependable foot care. Remember to look for the following characteristics in othopedic shoes designed for superior foot care and support:
The best orthopedic shoes should ideally feature – a firm heel counter, a wide toe box to accommodate toes, a semi-rigid or rigid shank, a removable inner sole, a long vamp and a heel measuring between ¾ to 1 1/2 inches.
If you want to maintain good foot care, make sure your shoes hold onto the foot, and not the other way around. An adjustable support shoe with Velcro can be a great way to fit problem feet and improve your overall level of foot care.
Other features to consider in good orthopedic shoes that can help improve your level comfort include:
Comfortable shoes should have a Padded collar and tongue to protect sensitive areas, reduce irritation and secure the fit.
A rubber outsole is often found on the most supportive shoes to aid with slip resistance.
The best shoes have Interchangeable insoles to aid with perspiration problems and accommodate orthotic devices. Velcro® provides good closure on many orthopaedic shoes. The best shoes may also contain a Plastizote foam lining that molds to the foot to reduce pressure points and provide customized comfort and protection, as well as a firm compression EVA midsole. Flared outsoles enhance foot stability. The best orthopedic shoes will also provide a Polyurethane rocker sole to reduce ball-of-foot pain and absorb shock.
