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.

Natural fiber shoes! Cotton..anything but synthetic materials...they irritate so bad.
The barefoot shoes that were mentioned..they're AWESOME!!

I bought a pair of flip flops from Bass Pro that has great arch support and so far have been great! Lot's of cushion and great for all day wearing around the house.

I had a series of sessions with a sports trainer/chiropractor and received laser treatments on the bottom of my feet. AS a result I no longer have the feeling that I am walking on marbles on the bottom of my feet. While I continue ue to have pain in my ankles and lower legs, the bottom of. my feet are no longer a problem

I’m beginning laser therapy in June, it was helpful to hear you say that you found some relief!

I absolutely love my Hike Barefoot shoes. I have 4 pairs now. My neuropathy doesn’t even bother me when I have these shoes on. I have had neuropathy for almost 20 years and these are the best shoes I have ever worn. LOVE THEM!!!

Can you tell me the specific Hike Barefoot shoes you have? They sound great.

I've had ideopathic peripheral neuropathy for about 7 years. Several years ago I discovered Merinos Shoes and have found them to be very comfortable. Though they're made of wool, they're not hot in the summer and are warm in the winter. I don't need to wear socks with them, even though I live in northern MN. They provide comfortable support. I see they just announced a sandal but I've been very happy with the slip-ons. They do seem to have sales regularly. Just another option to consider.

The brand is REEF. The arch has small print that says "Anatomic Contouring." I bought a size 13 that fit perfect. They are expensive for a flipflop but well worth it for me. Hope they work for you. Picture attached.

I bought mine on Amazon. Here is the info. This is not the Hike brand shoe. It looks identical. Plus, on Amazon, you can return them easily.

Wide toe box, lets toes spread. Amazing! These are the only shoes I can wear. My neuropathy in my feet is painful. I go barefoot or in these shoes. Don't let the inexpensive price fool you. I can walk in these for hours. Miracle shoe.
