Diabetic Walking Shoes Community Rating

Category: Activity

I found this site online- healthyfeetstore.com I even ordered some shoes to walk in for exercise. The service and help I received was excellent. They always have some type of shoes at discount or something on sale. They carry shoes for both men and women and have all the hard to find sizes. This was important to me because I am hard to fit.

Yes my dad is a diabetic has been for over 22 years, and he was fit for the shoe and he just loves them. He also wears the socks too.

Pros:

The quality is good, and the fit was great.

I have been wearing these shoes for about 2 years now. They really seem to help with my nuropothy(burning feet) and my back and legs don't hurt as bad any more.
Many insureances cover these shoes I know Medical in California does, so I get mine free twice a yr.

Pros:

Your actually wearing a Sass shoe with a thicker bottom and it is made to order for your feet. I wore Sass before I found these at a cost of 130 dollars. Free is much better

Cons:

Not a lot of styles or colors to choose from. Although this year it is better. Need Doctors RX

I get diabetic shoes 1x per year and medicare pays for them. They are made for my feet and very comfortable. You can find most carriers at most any pharmacy.

Pros:

My feet, legs, and back hurt a little less. If anything is wrong with the fit, they will get it right.

Cons:

Requires an rx from your diabetes doctor.

When I had a pair of diabetic shoes they started to make my feet hurt alot.

Pros:

When you have bad feet then I think they would help you to walk easier.

Cons:

For me a pair of good sneakers that are three quarters up the ankle help me more.
