Not all shoes are created equal—especially when it comes to protecting the feet of individuals living with diabetes. At Stride Orthotic & Pedorthic Center, we offer a curated selection of therapeutic diabetic footwear that’s medically designed to prevent pressure points, accommodate deformities, and reduce the risk of foot complications.
Diabetic shoes must meet specific medical standards for fit, protection, and construction. The shoes we dispense include:
These features aren’t just nice-to-have—they’re medically necessary for people with neuropathy, circulation issues, or a history of foot ulcers.
Our certified shoe fitters and pedorthists work closely with patients and their physicians to ensure every diabetic shoe fits with precision. We assess each foot individually, taking into account:
We also guide you through proper shoe wear and care — because the best shoe won’t work if it doesn’t fit correctly or isn’t worn consistently.
If you’ve been diagnosed with diabetes and qualify under Medicare or other insurance programs, you may be eligible for extra-depth diabetic shoes and inserts at little to no cost. Learn more about our full Diabetic Shoe Program and how to get started here:
