The neuropathy destroyed my feet. I am unable to walk without AFOs. These are ankle foot braces that go up the calf of my leg. I wear the Billy shoes with them. They are the best for me because the zipper goes around the shoe so you are able to place your foot into it easily and then zip them up. They have their own web site and you can find them on Amazon as well. They really are an amazing shoe and the AFO fits in them so well. Hope this helps you. All the best. Hugs
