Dr. Zen's Diabetic Shoes

Lightweight with a secure closure
ensures the shoe stays on and
protects the foot.

Dr. Zen Therapeutic Shoes have
the extra depth to accommodate
a diabetic insole.

The result is a very comfortable
shoe which is easy to put on. The
design also helps in the
prevention of skin breakdown
and other foot problems.

Also available in Taupe and Brown

Breathable Upper
The upper front of the shoe is made of LYCRA.
This makes the shoe more breathable. Ventilation allows
for normal body cooling and reduces the hot damp atmosphere
which may contribute towards the development of fungus and bacteria.

Rocker Bottom
The heal and the toe are slightly curved forcing the foot to walk properly.
The rocker bottom coupled with the ridged shank,
aid in re-aligning ground forces and encourage
a normal gait and aid in maintaining a neutral position.

Rigid Shank
The bottom of the shoe has a rigid shank, with the help of the
"rocker bottom" forces the foot to walk properly,
with the proper weight and support on the bottom of the foot.

Reinforced Toe Box
The toe box is high and reinforced to help prevent
injury to sensitive toe area.

Seamless Construction for Reduced Abrasion
The inside of the shoe is finished without high, irritating seams. Seams that rub against the diabetic foot can cause irritation, causing blisters, calluses and infection.

Lightweight
The balance of the shoe and construction materials make this a shoe that protects the foot and provides comfort.
The biomechanical design redistributes the ground reaction forces.
This shoe can comfortably be worn all day.

Meets The Therapeutic Shoe Bill
The therapeutic shoe bill is very specific. Not all shoes fit the bill. The Dr. Zen shoe meets and exceeds the requirement of the therapeutic shoe bill providing not only an orthopedic shoe which can be used for a diabetic, but a diabetic shoe designed for the diabetic. The difference is noticed by the patients.
