The very soft feel, the touch and feel of leather, gives the shoe extra strength, and support.
topThe upper front of the shoe is made of High Quality LYCRA. This makes the shoe more breathable. Ventilation allows for normal body cooling and reduces the hot damp atmosphere which may contribute towards the development of fungus and bacteria.
topThe heal and the toe are slightly curved forcing the foot to walk properly. The rocker bottom coupled with the ridged shank, aid in re-aligning ground forces and encourage a normal gait and aid in maintaining a neutral position.
topThe bottom of the shoe has a rigid shank, with the help of the "rocker bottom" forces the foot to walk properly, with the proper weight and support on the bottom of the foot.
topThe toe box is high and reinforced to help prevent injury to sensitive toe area.
topThe inside of the shoe is finished without high, irritating seams. Seams that rub against the diabetic foot can cause irritation, causing blisters, calluses and infection.
topThe balance of the shoe and construction materials make this a shoe that protects the foot and provides comfort. The biomechanical design redistributes the ground reaction forces. This shoe can comfortably be worn all day.
