Cadense shoes for balance issues: good or bad experiences?

Posted by brotherchuckles80 @brotherchuckles80, Apr 14, 2024

I am researching shoes for balance issues due to my neuropathy and drop foot. I have read great reviews and then precautions because they will slide on wooden o tile floor. Anyone out there in neuropathy and drop foot land had any experience with Cadense shoes; good or bad?
Thank you,

Will they allow room for my AFO?

I don't know what AFO is but HOKA shoes come in many sizes and many different width sizes. You need to go to the store and try on shoes until you find the best fit.

Go check HODA. My podiatrist and neurologist suggested these shoes. Try on several to find the one that gives you what you need. They are expensive but you do whatever to get through your day.

I also have balance issues and have try many different types of sneakers. After spending hundreds of dollars experiencing the best sneakers for me were the Hoka Bondi 8. If you look at them you will see that they have a very large platform to walk on. The bottom platform is wider than your foot. I also experimented with different inserts to find the most comfortable combination. For the last two months I have been walking 2-3+ miles every day. I also use very soft socks and change them 2-3 times every day. I have also used NewBalance Fresh Foam X and have had success. I have 4E wide feet and need a larger toe box. Both those sneakers have that. I wear my sneakers all day and only take them off to shower and sleep.
