This page is devoted to helpful products for diabetic feet. You’ll find recommended shoes for diabetics, orthotics and socks for diabetics.
When it comes to the right products for diabetic feet, socks, footwear and orthotics play an important role. Orthotics designed with Plastazote“ foam, the Number 1 material for protecting insensitive diabetic feet, are usually products that are recommended. Plastazote is a material designed to accommodate pressure “hot spots” by conforming to heat and pressure. By customizing to the foot, Plastazote provides the comfort and protection needed in diabetic footcare. Shoes for diabetics constructed with Plastazote is also frequently recommended.
Shoes for diabetics should provide High, wide toe box (high and wide space in the toe area)
Shoes for diabetics should have removable insoles for fitting flexibility and the option to insert orthotics if necessary. They should have Rocker Soles designed to reduce pressure in the areas of the foot most susceptible to pain, most notably the ball-of-the-foot.
And.. shoes for diabetics should have Firm Heel Counters for support and stability.
If you are a diabetic, you should be particularly alert to any problems you may be having with your feet and be informed about the right socks and shoes for diabetic feet. It is very important for diabetics with neuropathy to take necessary precautions to prevent injury and keep their feet healthy. If you have diabetes and are experiencing a foot problem, immediately consult your foot doctor.
