Diabetic Walking Shoes

By Avera Added at September 25, 2008 Views 880 Reviews 23 0.0 stars

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.

I get a rx every year for my diabetic shoes. I have gotten a free pair once a year for several years now. They are great and if you go to a store that seem to just have clunky shoes, ask if they have catalogs you can look at to order from. I get some nice ones from the "priority" cataloge and they are free too

Hi red flower lady, a friend of mine gave me the heads up on that topic: all you need to do is ask your doctor for a prescription, and you go from there. I followed suit and got me a nice pair!! Go for it.

How do you get your insurance to pay for them. I need a good pair of athletic shoes.

I wear diabetic shoes have done so for several
years. They are comfortable. They allow extra
toe space, and better support for ankle and foot.

Pros

Comfortable and sturdy

Cons

Fewer colors and styles

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.
