@janiern2 - When I first read your post, I thought my wife wrote this. I have axonal PN as well and I've been wearing the carbon walk-on flex by Ottobock since 2020. My bilateral drop foot started suddenly in 2019 and after falling flat on my face several times in 2019, I knew something had to change. At first, I did experience discomfort. I wear my AFO's with sneaks and when I went to an extra wide sneaker, the discomfort went away. I found the sneaks offer my flexibility when walking, not high tops, just normal low-cut work well for me. Ed
