Why are "diabetic shoes" so ill fitting!?

The ones my podiatrist Rx’d creatively price 0, as well as have been so sick wise as to be the greatest fun of the brand new century. They do not hold my feet anywhere during all, generally in the arch. My feet slides around in them horribly unless we wear 2 span of complicated socks.

I should have followed my demur as well as paid for the ones we customarily wear.
the store took silt equipment of my foot. we have complained though to no avail. These have been alien from China!

and NO! we do not wear them! they lay upon the dresser to remind me which many things "diabetic" have been the square of junk


There are 3 suggestions to question “Why are "diabetic shoes" so ill fitting!?”

  1. I’ll bet your feet are normal sized. My mom had this same problem with a company that was recommended by her diabetic specialist. They came out and measured her feet and all the shoes they provided were too big because she has narrow feet. They tried putting two or three insoles in them and after several attempts to fit her told her that they could not get any narrower shoes. She ended up going to the store and getting a $40 pair of Reebocks.
    The problem is that a great many diabetics have a problem with swollen feet or are obese and have fatter feet. My mom’s shoes were paid for by medicare and she had to call medicare and tell them that she could never get shoes that fit and had to send them back so that Medicare would not be charged.

  2. If you paid that much money for them, you should complain until you have ones which fit properly. It sounds like whatever you have was poorly made and I wouldn’t be wearing them. I would think you’d have some serious issues with ill fitting shoes with diabetes.

    Make a phone call to the podiatrist and tell him/her the problem. They should make sure to correct the problem or refund your money, no questions asked.

  3. I feel for ya. I also just got a new pair that does not fit the best. Feel loose all the way around. $350.00 what a joke. Biggest rip off of the new millenium. Take care Miz Lamb.
