What Women's Shoe Features Are Best For Diabetic Feet?

Women's shoes for diabetes can offer support and protect your feet from foot symptoms associated with diabetes. Some shoes are reimbursable through Medicare under the Therapeutic Shoes for Individuals with Diabetes benefit. These types of shoes are coded A5500 diabetic shoes. Below are some features to look for in women's diabetic shoes:

Roomy toe box: Shoes with a roomy toe box can help prevent pressure on the toes and reduce the risk of developing foot ulcers. Make sure your toes can spread out naturally so they do not rub during wear.

Soft uppers and lining: Shoes made from soft materials such as supple leather or soft fabric lining help reduce friction and prevent skin irritation. A seamless lining can help prevent rubbing against the interior materials at the toe box, instep, and heel area.

Cushioned Sole: Shoes with good cushioning can help absorb shock and reduce pressure on the feet. An EVA midsole will cushion each step to reduce impact as you walk and enhance the overall comfort of the shoe.

Arch support: Shoes with rigid arch support can help maintain an optimal foot position for support and spread weight evenly across the foot. Arch support can also reduce strain on the tissue and tendons in the foot, preventing other foot conditions like plantar fasciitis.

Adjustable closure: Shoes with adjustable closures such as laces or straps can provide a secure and comfortable fit. If any swelling is present, you will be able to adjust the fit of the shoe.

Closed toe: A closed toe is ideal for those with diabetes to prevent small rocks or sharp objects from entering the shoe and causing an injury to your feet.
