At the crossroads of innovation, comfort, and style lies the Excursion for men. Crafted in sensible color options for every day, these mid top sneakers feature our revolutionary rear zipper, removable dual density memory foam insoles, along with smooth and unobtrusive linings. Slip-resistant, shock absorbing, and lightweight, the Excursion is anything but another conventional sneaker.

  • Experience hassle-free on-and-off with patented rear Easy Shoe Access. ESA creates larger entry portals and is easier to pull than straight, lateral, or wrap-around zippers
  • Alleviate pain and foot fatigue with removable memory foam footbeds featuring dual density heel, arch, and metatarsal support
  • Stay upright with flexible slip resistant outsoles that move and bend with your every step while absorbing shock
  • Sensory friendly smooth linings allow the shoes to be worn with or without socks
  • Wide width and extra depth in the toe box accommodates wider feet, swelling, orthotics, and AFO/SMO with ease
Guaranteed Safe Checkout

Traditional and mainstream sneaker styles are a jungle of obstacles for anyone with adaptive challenges and the Excursion provides solutions across the board. This dream-come-true sneaker is ready for your custom orthotics and/or AFO/SMO. Engineered with removable insoles to increase the already substantial depth in the shoe, these are constructed with a much wider fit and large entry portal for easy in and out with or without a brace. 

Everyone benefits from increased support and stability, and it’s imperative for individuals with adaptive and age-related health challenges:

  • People rehabilitating injuries sustained from a sporting event, a work or auto accident, or an unfortunate fall
  • Someone who recently had a heart attack, a stroke, or a diagnosis of a neurological condition such as Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s
  • A senior grandparent taking proactive measures to prevent falls, stay independent, and live actively

Orthopedic & Comfort Friendly

We all want comfort, we all want things that are good for us. Why would we think any differently about our feet, the only part of our body that hits the floor an average of 3-4,000+x/day. Be more active, whether in sitting or standing, and do so with the Friendly difference, shoes that make life easier, without sacrificing style, comfort, or ease.

It’s full speed ahead with Friendly Shoes! Right at the intersection of comfort, style, and orthopedic support, our styles allow you to be more active — whether sitting or standing. Right on trend with easy-to-wear colorways, it’s what’s inside that really counts: removable dual-density memory foam insoles with a contoured arch and metatarsal support to help alleviate foot fatigue, padded cushioning around the heel and tongue for comfort and stability, and a generous toe box to easily accommodate wider widths.

Airport Friendly

We all know the airport hassle, especially during COVID. With travel coming back from its brief hiatus in 2021, having Airport Friendly Shoes is a luxurious convenience for those going through security.

Our patented ESA technology allows you to zip in/out of your shoes faster than ever before, helping you get through security a little bit quicker. If your feet swell while flying, we’ve got you covered there, too. Simply unzip for immediate relief while in your seat. And best of all? They weigh next to nothing so toss that second pair into your bag.

  • Ortho-comfort technology
  • Light weight (9 oz) non-marking/non-slip outsoles

Swelling Friendly

From the time we first get up in the morning, all feet change in size. Although we all have differences in daily changes, finally there is an option! Wide fitting and with laces for adjustability, as needed, Friendly offers the opportunity to unzip for comfort, zip-up for compression and stability.

Too-tight uppers are a thing of the past when you slip into Friendly Shoes. Whether due to a humid climate, altitude change, medical condition, or injury: our styles are constructed with a wider fit and adjustable laces to effortlessly accommodate swelling and can be safely worn unzipped.

Parkinson's Disease Friendly

For those of us that know Parkinson’s Disease, we know how unpredictable the condition can be on a daily basis. Through listening and working with individuals with PD, Friendly has created some of the most Parkinson’s Disease Friendly Shoes ever made.

Unpredictability is the name of the game with Parkinson’s and our shoes aim to provide a consistent, hassle-free™ experience each and every time. Our large, easy-to-grasp pull tabs are simple to use with tremors and all of our styles are incredibly lightweight to assist with leg lifting, along with our massive entry portals that make slipping into the shoes a breeze.

  • Easy pull open/close designed to accommodate tremors (pill-rolling).
  • Lightweight to assist leg lifting (9 ounces).
  • Visual cue on pull tab to accommodate volitional movement.

Age Friendly

Aging in place is a gift for us all. As we get older our bodies may slow down however our minds become more useful through the wisdom that we’ve accumulated. Unfortunately, from the age of about 25, depending on the person, we begin our physiological decline. In addition, our feet begin to change, making the old shoes we once used to brag about virtually impossible to accommodate our changing footwear needs.

Age-related changes that Friendly Shoes can assist:

  • Decreased dexterity
  • Weakness
  • Decreased endurance
  • Decreased time

Diabetes Friendly

A condition that includes over 10% of the US population, proper fitting footwear is extremely important for individuals with diabetes. Extra room can cause friction and this is not good for anyone. The problem is shoes are hard, take time and energy, and life is super busy. Through proper virtual sizing, come to experience the Diabetes Friendly Shoes difference with the attributes below:

  • Soft breathable inner lining
  • Easy open/close pull tab
  • Light as a feather (<9 oz)
  • Nonslip tested outsole
  • Firm midsole
  • Removable dual-density memory foam arch-supporting insoles (designed to increase sensory feedback)
  • Wide fitting with free laces for adjustability

*Friendly Shoes are not diabetic certified, routine skin checks are highly encouraged during initial use

AFO Friendly

Let’s face it, orthoses & braces create footwear challenges. Whether it’s getting the shoes on or accommodating the foot while it’s in the shoe, selecting the appropriate shoes for AFOs can be close to impossible. I’m not sure if anything exists?..

Our versatile styles graciously provide appropriate depth and width to accommodate AFOs and feature slip-resistant outsoles for additional stability along with removable dual-density memory foam insoles to easily replace with custom orthotics.

  • Wide (E last)/adjustable (set laces once and forget)
  • Extra-depth
  • Removable insoles
  • Non-slip outsoles

Autism Friendly

You don’t need tactile hypersensitivity or sensory aversions as so many children and adults with autism experience, to appreciate smooth, sensory Friendly inner linings with removable insoles that help customize the fit and feel. Stylish and versatile for every day, these zip-ons are fantastic for meeting the adaptive needs of our autistic community.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Friendly

Dealing with multiple sclerosis can be quite a challenge. Each person is impacted differently, on a daily basis, and this often leads to difficulties with shoe donning. Invented by an occupational therapist, Friendly shoes were created out of need, including specific features to help make at least the shoe selection part of life a little easier and less physically demanding.

Friendly Shoes are crafted with specific features to allow the wearer to get them on with the utmost of ease. Dealing with multiple sclerosis day-to-day can be quite a challenge and our featherweight styles are incredibly easy to get on/off, have slip-resistant outsoles and cushioned memory foam insoles with contoured support for immediate out-of-the-box comfort.

Veteran Friendly

Being Friendly to the individuals that served our country, Friendly Shoes celebrates our vets with shoe donations to the VA Hospital in San Diego, CA.

To make life easier for the ones that made our lives easier is something very important to Friendly.

These shoes are so easy to put on, my husband can be more independent and put his own shoes on. I'm sure we will order him other pairs! Thank you friendly shoes.

Very soft and comfortable

I use AFOs and the zipper on the shoe makes it so much easier for me. The shoes are very soft and comfortable as well. I’ll definitely be getting another pair.

BEST shoes for AFO & bare feet🏆

I’ve had two different types of AFO and finding footwear was more than difficult! I have three pairs of the women’s excursion in size 8 and they are the perfect width! I am wearing Alpine Forest in the photo. I wish I would’ve known about these four years ago! Wear them with bare feet, they feel amazing. Will never buy anything else🌟

Best shoes

My son is 34 years old and he has cerebral palsy and he has always needed special shoes for his braces and this is the first shoe that I have found that actually lasts a long time the way he walks and also was really easy for him to put on and by himself independently, but yet look like they’re everyone else’s shoes! Absolutely love these shoes

Customer service is non-existent.

I bought 2 pairs of sneakers for my daughter. The design doesn't work with her A.F.O.s. I have requested an RMA through online form and by e-mail. I finally got an answer the other day from Tamara, saying she sent an RMA already and will resend. I responded that i never got it and just send the RMA to the e-mail address we were communicating through. Still nothing but crickets.
