Of all the adaptive shoe companies we’ve come across, Friendly Shoes is our favorite. The shoes are well made, our daughter is able to put them on by herself and she likes the styles they provide. The sneaker fits around her AFO nicely, without being cumbersome or heavy. They are the only adaptive shoe we have found that hit all the points. Also, their customer service is great! We will continue to happily purchase from Friendly Shoes!
Perfect fit. My son is a paraplegic. Through the years we have had to have special shoes made for him. With these zippers, the shoes allow us to get his feet in the shoe with his toes uncurled. The shoes also keep his feet straightened and they do not bend from side to side. Thanks!!!
Need to have my order.
I really love them . Comfortable. I'm a little worried about how the zipper will hold up.
Did not fit my foot well, however very comfortable, light weight and well made.
I loved them, and I love the idea of the zipper. They just were not stiff enough for what I need, and my heels slipped up when I walked.
The zipper design of this shoes helped my autistic son to easily wear and take off his shoes. Price is very affordable as well.
Fantastic product. This is a great shoe for handicapped people! Easy slide in zip shut! Thank you for making this possible.
The size runs large, good look I bout for my daughter and someday is going grow and use it. My daughter uses a prosthetic leg in one leg, the shoe is too big for her foot and the prosthetic roost.
I am a woman who has CMT. My arch is high and my toes curl under. I have clubbed feet and hammer toes. My feet are shrinking due to deformity. I was a size 5 when younger. Through the years-I’m 62. I now wear a 2! These are comfortable, my braces fit well. I love these shoes! Someday I would like a little older styles. But I’m good. Thank you Friendly Shoes!
My husband has worn brace on foot for 9 yrs and never have we found the perfect shoe until now. We love the way this fits and feels. My dad is 95 and ordered him one also due to his excess swelling. I think this will work for him!!! Thank you Friendy shoes!!!
I did not receive the navy blue shoes I ordered. I received a gray pair of another shoe. I se t a return request and still have not heard back. I want to return the shoes and get a refund please.
This style of show is excellent. It offers support at the ankle and fits well with orthodics
First time ordering from this company. The shoes were PERFECT! They were exactly as described...side zipper for easy fit with AFO's, wide toe space, and stylish. Will definitely utilize company again. Thank you
I think this would be a great shoe for a certain kind of brace, but it will not work with my AOS. I actually submitted a note asking if I could return it, but I have not heard back yet. I would really like a note saying that I could return that because I’m looking at a different shoe that works for me. And I want to go ahead and order it from you guys.
My niece has AFOs that are wide right at the ankle due to having flexible joints. This is our second pair of friendly shoes for her. And she needed a larger size with her new AFOs. Both she, she and twin her sister (no AFOs) Both want to wear these shoes every day. They look great, fit well with the AFOs and bring a wonderful smile to her face. (I would have bought a second pair for her sister, only they don't make them sizes small enough for her feet.)
I bought the shoes for my niece for her to start pre-K. They are comfortable for her. They do not squish her toes. They fit well around her ankle with her widen and flexible joints on her AFO's. This is actually the second pair of friendly shoes I bought for her and they are still holding up well, so I feel strongly that these will also hold up for the school year or at least until she gets her new set of braces, cause she grows like a weed. Thank you Friendly! Your adorable and attractive, looking shoes, help my niece to continue to be herself and thrive.
