Customer Reviews Propet Stability Walker Medicare/HCPCS Code = A5500 Diabetic Shoe

Overall, pretty good shoe. I like the stability walker--I'm on my fourth pair. One consistent problem though. The sole that rises up in front comes unglued relatively soon into the period or wear. Too much trouble to register the shoe for the guarentee period.

A Good Solid Shoe - I think this is a very good shoe. Support is what is most important to me and this shoe has good support. It doesn't have the best support of any shoe I've tried but it is right up there and I think it is reasonably priced.

Overall good shoe - I have very skinny feet with high arches and find it hard to find satisfactory walking shoes. These, with my orthotics added, are as good as any shoe I've tried. The heel could be a little snugger; it slips just a bit. I like the sole, the way it flanges out a bit esp. at the heel. The shoe does seem more stable, my foot less likely to roll. The shoe does feel smaller than marked, but this ok for me because I always order 1/2 size up to accommodate socks. Normally I wear a 5.5 AA shoe, but always order sixes in athletic shoes because they do seem to run small.

Awesome All-Around Shoe - This shoe is wonderful if you are on your feet, walking a lot. There is lots of "bounce" when you walk and it propells you forward easily. The shoe makes your foot look good, too. I bought the white pair (my second pair of them) and I bought them in an EE width (I think they call that an XW when ordering). Usually, I would take a D width (wide), but the toe of this shoe is rather pointy, so I sent them back and got the EE width which was much better. The leather is very strong and sturdy and the shoe stays "clean" looking forever with just a wet cloth once in a while. They come up higher on the ankle with the wider width and really support your feet. The ball of the foot area is very wide and comfortable. I have a very short square looking foot with very short toes, so you would have to take my info into consideration when ordering them for yourself. I usually wear a 7D, but I ordered a 7 1/2 EE in this shoe and it was perfect. If your foot is more pointy, you wouldn't have to order up a size. At any rate...I say give them a try!

Very stiff due to all leather shoe. It felt a bit too roomy

It was too small to get my foot into, on even though it was the same size and the same brand I have worn several times previously.

Toe box too shallow.

Sadly these don’t fit well. I had this same pair years ago and wore them out. My feet have lengthened with age, so I ordered the same size I wear in walking shoes. My feet slide down to toe and I would definitely end up jamming them if I wore these while walking.

Good ,Good Good

great shoe - runs small

There is a difference between the right and left shoe and how each shoe fits. This pair isn't made to the measurements I've had in this shoe in the past, and I've been wearing this shoe for 10 years.

tight

I used to wear this style for many years. I then found a shoe that I liked more, so I hadn't tried this Propet shoe again until recently. I was extremely disappointed with it. There wasn't nearly enough padding, especially in the heel. Even with my custom orthotics and extra foam pads, my feet hurt. I don't know if Propet has changed this style, or if I've just gotten spoiled with my other brand. Either way, I returned this Propet pair and won't be purchasing any more.

The sole is flexible, but there is no cushioning at all and it feels like walking on concrete

Ordered 8 and exchanged for 8.5 but still to small. I returned them.

The area that strikes the ankle bone was too high and was painful. Not a good fit it you have arthritis or damage to ankle. A lower cut would have been excellent. The photo looked like it was low enough, but rubbed exactly in the middle of my ankle bone.

narrower toe box. Easy spirit Romy has a more generous toe box

In my usual size (7.5D), it was a tight fit when I inserted my orthotic. Felt too short and narrow - returned.

The toe box is very tight.

Other size 13 propets fit me, but for some reason this one had very little toe space, tight.

Nice looking shoe, but pointed toe pinches.

Pointed toe looks nice but cramps the foot.

Nice looking shoe. Looks like it has good support and stability. But it was too small for me to wear to even walk around in it to be able to review it.

Although these shoes were comfortable and gave great support, I felt I was "pitching" forward in them. Kept feeling like my feet were going to slide forward, even though they really did not. They do run small. I never go above a 8.5-9 in shoes, and these I had to purchase a 9.5.

Toe box was tight and compressed foot. Odd to have a toe box that shapes like a dress shoe, pointed, especially if these are considered shoes for diabetics.
