Getting shoes on shouldn't be the hardest part of the day. Whether you wear an AFO brace, have limited mobility or hand strength, or just want shoes you can step right into, we'll help you find a pair that's easy to put on and fits right.
Different shoes solve different problems. Here's how they compare.
A zipper runs around the shoe so the whole top opens wide, making it easy to get on and off. Made for kids and adults, and our go-to for anyone wearing an AFO brace.
Step right in, no hands needed. The heel flexes down as your foot slides in and springs back into place, so there's no bending over and no laces to tie.
Hands-free Skechers with a molded heel that holds its shape, so you can step in without touching your shoes. Styles change often, so ask us what's in the store.
Clogs from Dansko, Birkenstock and Haflinger, plus slip-on sneakers and shoes with hook-and-loop straps from many of our other brands.
An AFO (ankle-foot orthosis) brace adds bulk around the heel and ankle, so it won't slide into most shoes. BILLY Footwear is our go-to for AFOs, for kids and adults. Its zipper runs around the shoe so the whole top opens up, letting you set your foot and brace in from above instead of squeezing them through a narrow opening.
We're shoe fitters, not doctors. If you have a new brace or questions about what you need, check with your orthotist or physical therapist, then bring their recommendations with you and we'll help find shoes to match.
Questions about fit? These pages cover the ones we hear most.
No appointment needed. Bring your brace or orthotics and we'll take the time to get it right. Our Main St. entrance is wheelchair accessible, and we're open Monday to Saturday 9 to 6 and Sunday 10 to 5.
