At Milwaukee Foot & Ankle Specialists, we offer a variety of diabetic shoes in Wauwatosa, WI, to help support your needs.

How Are Diabetic Shoes Different From Regular Shoes?

Diabetic shoes are made with certain features that alleviate the foot conditions people with diabetes can develop. They differ from regular shoes in the following ways:

  • Protective, soft interior, stretchable that doesn’t cause irritation & eliminates pressure points.
  • Non-binding uppers alleviate pressure on the foot.
  • Deep design eliminates pressure, provides extra room for toe movement & accommodates thick orthotic inserts that provide extra cushioning.
  • Lightweight design assists in mobility & stability.
