For 25 years Pedors Shoes has been known as the “go-to” shoe for seniors with foot problems. The proprietary upper material called Pedoprene™ allows the forefoot of the shoe to stretch and mold and provide compression to help reduce swelling.The Pedors Classic was the original stretch orthopedic shoe, an innovative design that incorporates the latest material technologies to provide orthopedic and therapeutic footwear solutions for the hard to fit foot. Lightweight and easy to put on and take off with velcro closures, Pedors are designed with seniors in mind to minimize the risk of injury associated with falls. Generally regarded by Nurse Practitioners as the #1 geriatric shoe, Pedors are considered the perfect post op and rehab shoe for seniors and the preferred choice of footwear for PT.
Finding shoes that have enough volume inside the shoe for swollen feet or to accommodate an orthopedic or therapeutic device is difficult and the primary reason why Nurse Practioners choose to recommend Pedors Shoes to their patients and their families.
The increase in the incidence of phlebologic and lymphologic diseases such as varicosis, thrombophlebitis, phelbothrombosis, chronic venous insufficiency, primary and secondary lymphedema, vein surgery and sclerotherapy, has resulted in the need for extra depth and extra wide width shoes.
Pedors Shoes are available in full and half sizes and in five widths; Medium (B/C), Wide (D/E), Extra-Wide (EE/EEE), Extra-Extra-Wide (4E/ 5E) and Extra-Extra-Extra-Wide (6E/7E). As close to custom shoes as possible without the considerable expense.
The key to getting more girth or volume in a shoe is to go wider rather than longer. A common mistake made when fitting shoes for the swollen foot is to go up in size trying to get more room in the shoe which increases the risk of tripping.
Pedors make it easy for Nurse Practitioners to help their patients get appropriate footwear. If preferred NP’s can call customer service on 800 750 6729 and place the order by phone.
