The Plantar Fasciitis Orthotic Slide Sandal

Available only from Hammacher Schlemmer, these sandals help to combat the effects of plantar fasciitis with a stabilizing orthotic footbed that realigns your feet to a neutral position. The sandals have deep heel cups molded into the soft, shock-absorbing EVA footbeds, providing arch support while aligning the feet into a natural position for those who over-pronate—when the heel bone angles inward—a determining factor in the development of plantar fasciitis. A medical study conducted by a panel of physicians confirmed that participants who wore the sandals experienced a decrease in pronation and an improvement in gait mechanics. The soles are made from resilient rubber molded with a non-slip pattern. With hook-and-loop enclosure. The orthotic footbeds provide optimal comfort and support when the slides are worn for at least a few hours per day over the course of two weeks. Men’s sizes 5-12; Women’s sizes 6-13. Whole sizes only. For men’s half-sizes, order the next size up. For women’s half sizes, order the next size down. Khaki or Black. (1 1/2 lbs.)
