Orthofeet 581 Worth the money!!
March 19, 2013
Reviewer: OE from Orlando, FL
For decades I have been had a foot problem called "supination", which simply means that I walk on the outsides of my feet. Over a period of time, foot and knee problems can develop. By using special inserts along with the Orthofeet boots, my foot problem has greatly improved!! These boots are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. The thick cushioning material of the boot combined with the wide toe box make my feet and knees very happy. I will definitely order another pair when these wear out!!

Orthofeet 572 True Ortho Shoes
January 28, 2013
Reviewer: CAguy from El Cerrito, CA
I've bought other wide shoes to fit my orthopedic needs. While they were pretty low in price, they all failed in quality and durability...until this pair from OrthoFeet. Truly made for people with foot problems.

Orthofeet 517 Most comfortable pair of shoes ever
January 08, 2013
Reviewer: Charlie NYC from Ny
Love these shoes. Commute through NYC and these are the first pAir of shoes I ever wore that truly provide comfort. Got these on sale for 88 bucks on shoe buy and totally worth the price. Just wish there was a trendier style but at this point don't care about the look because my feet were killing me in other brand shoes. Look and feel very durable. Only complaint is as I broke the in, wish I would have gone a half size smaller because they feel like they are falling off sometimes. Shoebuy web is great. Offered cheapest price and I think I got them in 2 days. Thanks shoe buy and ortho feet feet for making a reasonably priced comfortable shoe,

Orthofeet 525 they dont look THAT bad
December 10, 2012
Reviewer: A.Y. from Springfield MO
I'll admit that I didn't feel the Orthofeet 525 looked quite as good in person as they did in the photographs on the site. In fact I wasn't real sure I wanted to keep them but my spouse said "they don't look THAT bad". They do feel a bit like wearing boots compared to my old New Balance shoes (that I wore EVERYWHERE), especially on stairs. They are quite comfortable, though, so I'll keep wearing them. I had to put in one of the (included) foam spacers under the removable insole in order for my foot to not move around too much. I'm not at all confident that the velcro strap will last nearly as long as my old New Balance shoes did. After just a couple of weeks it already seems loose at the end.
Wears this shoe: Whenever I am not sleeping or working out.
