Vive Heel Wedge Post Op Shoe X-Small Multi

Works great as designed

I have been unable to walk due to a very painful heel condition (feels like one big bruise). I tried crutches but they were a pain. A scooter is also a headache to maneuver. Then I found this wedge shoe. My life has changed as now I can walk with little pressure on my heel. The quality is outstanding & it is built to last. Some complain that the material it's made out of is too hard but that's what makes it so durable & enables me to walk anywhere (little pebbles rarely get stuck in the ridged sole) & gives the shoe its utility. I suggest wearing a sock with it so as not to soil the shoe also, after you set the toe velcro the way you want it, leave it alone & just adjust the strap (which I shortened using pinking shears) when you slip the shoe off & on. This has been a game changer for me & so glad that I finally discovered this (though finding it a few weeks earlier would have saved me a lot of hobbling around). I was concerned that the sole would be too thick & make one leg longer than the other but paired with a running shoe on the other foot, I see no difference. This is one good product! My foot is a size 7-7.5 & I got the small size (my toes come to the very edge of the shoe) a medium might have been the better size choice but I like the snug way this one feels. If you are enduring heel pain for one reason or another, this will give you fantastic relief as it puts the weight more on the ball of the foot.

They were just the job for someone who had to keep one foot off the floor, good strong support and well madeWhy did you choose this product over others?:They offered more support Comfort:They were very comfortable when on and while walking Size:True to sizeDurability:The Dr at the hospital asked where I got them because they were better quality and more suitable than the ones they had at the clinic!

I ordered this for my 90 year-old at home, who had a heel ulcer. She’s very mobile with her walker and required a shoe that would cover her wound and provide safety placement of the foot while walking. I highly endorse this, not affiliated with anyone. This really worked out for nearly 4 months of her recovery. She used it to go to church and family outings, it offered normal balance for her to walk. I cleaned it often with a normal disinfecting, wipe and let it air dry. It offered comfortable Velcro to adjust. I am a nurse and I highly recommend this shoe for any person who may have a heel or calcaneus procedure, heal, spur, or ulcer that is being treated.

This Offloading Boot worked well allowing heel to heal.
