Does anyone find that a type of shoe helps your foot neuropathy?

Posted by lorirenee1 @lorirenee1, Mar 25, 2019

I am on a constant quest for shoes that don't kill my feet due to the neuropathy. I find that Spencos and Wolky shoes seem the best. Are there any other suggestions? Shoes can be just crippling for me. Horrid.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

Please look into Barefoot Shoes for help with many symptoms including pain, numbness, stiffness & balance. Go to Amazon for information & many choices. They are inexpensive & do more than any creams or supplements.

I just purchased a pair of Barefoot Shoots from Hike co. It'a the best pair I have. Not only does it feel good but helps my stability. (I'm not sure how it does this but I feel better.) The shoes are great and not expensive, around $75

I use Orthofeet sneakers that help me. Good arch supper and wide toe area. I also wear Walk Hero for the same reason. I buy the one that is listed as a slipper, but I wear them outside also. I just bought a loafer style and it feels good also.

I have found sketchers with the soles like in the picture
And helped immensely with walking with neuropathy pain. I wear them every day as house shoes. I do not know if they have soles like this in any of the other Sketcher shoes. I also have arthritis in my feet.

I feel more stable on my feet when I wear my Orthofeet sneakers. I also wear my Walk Hero slippers/shoes all day in the house.

Yes - but it feels different until you get used to it. Then it’s great.

I don’t have Hallus Rigidus. My feet problems are burning, swelling, especially at night. If you try these I hope they work.

Yes, they have a wide toe box. They don't really have arch "support" but they do hug your arches.

My Altra shoes help a great deal. They have a wide and high toe box and zero drop. (The heel is not higher than the toe. )
