Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right size?
X-Small fits Women's 3 to 5.5. Small fits Men's 5 to 6.5 or Women's 6 to 7.5. Medium fits Men's 7 to 8 or Women's 8 to 9. Large fits Men's 8.5 to 10 or Women's 9.5 to 11. X-Large fits Men's 10.5 to 12.5 or Women's 11.5 to 13. If between sizes, size up.

Is this sold as a pair or a single shoe?
This is sold as an individual shoe, not a pair. Post-operative off-loading shoes are typically prescribed for one foot only.

Can the insole be removed or modified?
Yes. The double-padded insole is fully removable and can be modified as needed, or removed entirely to accommodate the Darco Peg Assist customizable off-loading insole system.

Is this shoe compatible with k-wires?
Yes. The square toe design protects the toes when k-wires are present and provides better left and right fit during hardware recovery.
