Darco HeelWedge Wound Care Healing Shoe

The Darco HeelWedge Healing Shoe for Wound Care: Darco Products - Focused on the Foot and Ankle

The Darco HeelWedge™ Healing Shoe was designed to off-load the heel and shift the weight to the midfoot area so one could heal faster following surgery, trauma, or after experiencing wounds on the heel. The HeelWedge™ healing shoe comes with a square toe design that offers two things: a better fit and extra room in the toe box. The forefoot closure presents a secure fit without uncomfortable pressure points of buckles and straps; plus the ankle strap holds the foot in place without heel friction. Patients won't have to worry about cold toes or whether or not their dressings will be kept clean and dry because the shoe comes with a cloth toe protector that will add warmth and protection against the elements. The Darco HeelWedge shoe for wound care also features a rocker bottom to maintain stability and a smooth toe-off.

Features of the Darco HeelWedge Shoe for Healing:

• Can be worn on right or left foot
• Off-loading for heel area
• Square toe design offers extra toe room and a better fit
• Forefoot closure offers secure comfortable fit without pressure points of buckles or straps
• Rocker bottom for smooth toe-off and for maintaining a stable mid-foot base

My husband has been wearing this "shoe" for about a year due to an ulceration on the bottom of his heel which happened while on bed rest following a back surgery. It seems to work well and we have had no problems with it other then it is now beginning to deteriorate from constant wear for a year. We will be ordering another one.
