Choosing Comfortable Orthopaedic Shoes

A practical guide to choosing an everyday shoe that fits your feet and your plans.

Start with the fit, not the label

When comparing orthopaedic and comfort shoes, look at the individual model's size chart, fastening, shape and materials. A category name alone does not tell you how a shoe will fit.

Look at the details

  • Toe space: check that the front of the shoe feels comfortable around your toes.
  • Fastening: an adjustable fastening lets you refine how the shoe sits over your foot.
  • Underfoot feel: compare the sole and cushioning shown in the product details.
  • Your routine: think about where you plan to wear the shoe and the surfaces you use most.

Measure before you choose

Sizes vary between models and brands. Measure both feet, use the larger measurement and compare it with the chart for the exact product you are buying. Read our Serena size & fit guide before ordering.
