Footwear FAQs

Will these shoes fit swollen feet or ankles?

Yes, they’re designed to accommodate swelling, bandages, or uneven foot sizes. Most styles have a width around 11 cm, and several include adjustable Velcro straps that adjust up to 33 cm in circumference, offering a flexible fit throughout the day.

Many customers have told us they struggled to find shoes that truly fit, until they tried these. The soft materials and adjustable design make a noticeable difference in daily comfort.

Are these suitable for people with diabetes or sensitive feet?

Absolutely. These shoes are made with seam-free interiors, roomy toe boxes, and soft materials to help reduce rubbing and pressure.

Depending on the style, you’ll find lightweight mesh for breathability, canvas, or wool-blend uppers for gentle warmth. Many also include memory foam insoles to help ease pressure from walking or standing.

We also offer Diabetic Bamboo Socks with a seamless toe, breathable, soft, and designed to keep feet dry and comfortable.

Are they easy to put on and take off?

Yes. The wide opening and easy-to-use Velcro straps make them simple to put on and take off, no bending or struggling.
Customers often mention how helpful this is for daily use, especially when mobility is limited or grip strength is reduced.

Can they be worn outside, or are they just for indoors?

You can definitely wear them outdoors. They’re light and flexible like a slipper but have durable, slip-resistant soles that are great for short walks, to the garden, the shops, or a friend’s place...
They strike a nice balance, not too heavy, not too slippery, and comfortable all day.

What size should I choose?

If the feet are different sizes (which is very common), we recommend choosing the size that fits the larger or more swollen foot. The adjustable straps make it easy to fine-tune the fit on each side for better comfort and support.

For step-by-step instructions and tips on how to measure your feet, please see our How to Measure page. It includes how to measure in centimetres, when to size up, and what to do if you’re between sizes.

What if they don’t fit, can I return or exchange them?

Yes, we’re happy to help. As long as the shoes are in original condition, we can assist with a return or exchange.
If you’re unsure about sizing or styles, just reach out, we’re always here to help.
