What Makes Footwear Orthopedic or Orthotic-Friendly?
The right features can provide additional room, stability and compatibility with custom orthotics. The most appropriate footwear depends on your foot shape, activities and individual needs.
Roomier Fit
A wider toe box and additional depth can provide more space for the toes, sensitive areas and custom orthotics.
Stable Construction
A firm heel counter, supportive base and secure closure can help provide a more stable foundation while walking.
Removable Footbeds
Many orthotic-friendly shoes include removable insoles so they can accommodate prescribed or custom-made orthotics.
Multiple Widths
Available width and depth choices make it easier to match footwear to different foot shapes.
Adjustable Closures
Laces or hook-and-loop straps allow customers to adjust the fit as needed throughout the day.
Cushioning and Comfort
Cushioned midsoles and supportive footbeds may improve everyday comfort during standing and walking.

Who May Benefit From Supportive Footwear?
Orthopedic or orthotic-friendly footwear may be considered when ordinary shoes do not provide adequate room, stability or accommodation. The appropriate footwear depends on the individual and should not be selected solely by a diagnosis.
- People who use custom-made foot orthotics
- People who require wide or extra-depth footwear
- Individuals with bunions or hammertoes
- People experiencing pressure from narrow footwear
- People seeking greater stability while walking
- Individuals who stand or walk for extended periods
- People recovering from certain foot or ankle concerns
- Individuals advised to use supportive footwear by a qualified healthcare professional
Footwear does not diagnose, treat or cure a medical condition. If you have diabetes, circulation concerns, loss of sensation, persistent pain or a recent injury, consult an appropriate regulated healthcare professional before selecting footwear.
Insurance and Direct Billing
Some extended health insurance plans may provide coverage for eligible orthopedic footwear when the plan’s requirements are met. Coverage limits, eligible products, prescriptions and supporting documents vary between insurance policies.
Before purchasing footwear for an insurance claim:
- Contact your insurer and confirm your orthopedic-shoe coverage.
- Ask whether a prescription or other supporting documentation is required.
- Confirm which footwear features and providers are eligible.
- Ask whether an online purchase qualifies under your policy.
We work with all major insurance providers and offer direct billing for eligible plans. Direct billing is not a guarantee that an insurer will approve or pay a claim.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between orthopedic shoes and regular shoes?
Orthopedic footwear generally provides features such as additional depth, multiple widths, a wider toe box, a stable heel counter, adjustable closures and removable footbeds. Features vary by style, so review the individual product information carefully.
Can these shoes accommodate custom orthotics?
Many of our footwear styles have removable insoles and additional depth to accommodate custom orthotics. Compatibility depends on the particular shoe, orthotic and foot. Bring your orthotics to the clinic if you would like fitting assistance.
Can I purchase orthopedic shoes without an appointment?
Yes. Available styles can be purchased through our online store. An appointment is recommended when you are uncertain about sizing, width, orthotic compatibility, insurance requirements or an existing foot concern.
Are orthopedic shoes covered by insurance?
Coverage depends entirely on your extended health insurance policy. Some plans require a prescription, specific footwear features or additional documentation. Contact your insurer before purchasing if you intend to submit a claim.
What should I bring to an in-clinic footwear appointment?
Bring your current orthotics, the shoes you wear most frequently, any relevant prescription or insurance requirements, and a pair of socks similar to those you normally wear with the footwear.
Do you carry men’s and women’s footwear?
Our online inventory changes over time. Check the online store for currently available styles, sizes, widths and colours, or contact the clinic if you are looking for something specific.
