Post-operative shoe with a square toe box and semi-rigid sole

Post-Op Shoes

Post-operative and cast footwear built on one semi-rigid sole platform, in square toe and round toe, off-loading and cast versions, so a distributor can cover a whole surgical footwear shelf from a single factory and a single size logic.

Problems It Solves

Why Buyers Come to This Family

  • Ordinary footwear compresses post-operative dressings and lets the surgical forefoot flex under load
  • Round toe shoes run out of room once the dressing is bulky so the strap will not close
  • Heel wounds and ulcerations keep loading during walking unless the shoe redistributes the pressure
  • Buying paediatric and adult footwear from different workshops leaves a distributor with two sizing logics
  • Sole stiffness drifts between deliveries when a shoe is sourced from a workshop without a fixed last

Who It Is For

Who Buys It

  • Medical device distributors covering a full post-operative footwear shelf

  • Hospital and clinic supply groups buying surgical ward stock on repeat contracts
  • Podiatry practices dispensing footwear at the point of dressing change
  • Pharmacy and homecare chains selling post-surgical recovery footwear

FAQ

Questions Buyers Ask Before Ordering

What is the difference between the square toe and round toe versions

The square toe box gives bandage material more room, so it suits a bulky dressing. The round toe is the classic silhouette patients accept more readily. Both use the same semi-rigid sole and forefoot support.

Which shoe do I stock for heel wounds

The Heel Off-Loading Shoe. It is clinically proven to off-load pressure by over 26 percent from the heel by shifting weight to the mid and forefoot, and it comes in square open toe and square closed toe.

Do you have a paediatric size

Yes. The post-op shoes run from Children through XL, and the Cast Boot Square Toe Pediatric DG-027 is built specifically for children in S M and L.

Can the range be supplied under our own brand

Yes. Private label branding on the shoe and on the retail packaging is standard, together with buyer specified carton marking and barcodes.

What is the minimum order quantity and the lead time

Both depend on the size assortment and on whether the order is private label. Email [email protected] with the articles sizes and quantities you need and you will get the figures for your own order.
