5 Replies

injury to seniors are due to falls. This new Orthopedic shoe has a rolled toe to prevent catching on uneven pavement, anti-slip sole, and a remote that you can hang around your neck or wrist. Perfect for dark hallways, movie theaters or just going for a walk at night.

The beige orthotic High beam shoes are exactly what my husband needs but when looking on the site to purchase it only lists sizes up to US size 6 and does not state whether that is women's or men's, and my husband takes a size 11 Mens.

also it is not clear whether they sell in the US or what.

it is too bad because I would really like to get him a pair.

Web link does not work! Are these shoes for Parkies who suffer with big toe curling up and making holes in most shoes?

Thank you for sharing how you deal with it!
