Why we know this works

Diabetic shoes are important to help prevent ulcers, sores, and even amputations to your feet and improve comfort overall when walking. Diabetics typically have poor sensation in their feet which can lead to injuries going unnoticed for longer periods of time. Diabetic shoes are specifically designed to provide extra depth, cushioning, and seamless interiors to reduce pressure points. Using a store that is trained to fit these shoes is critical to maintaining your overall health and preventing injuries.
