Orthofeet Womens Orthopedic Leather Emma Wedge Shoe for Foot Pain Relief

I ordered this pair of Orthofeet boots via Amazon as I needed a quick delivery and Amazon delivered next day. I accepted this delivery from the driver in my way out and put them inside to try later. As soon as the groceries were put away I tried these on. Initial thoughts: Very nice looking boot, I wouldn't look at it and say orthotic. I am really happy with their appearance. I was worried they would be too narrow but the 7.5 medium feels like a good fit. I also assume the leather will stretch a bit after wearing. I take an 8 in Brooks running shoes and 7.5 in other shoes, including my Orthofeet sandals which I love. My big toe on the right has plenty of room to wiggle and doesn't hit the front of the boot when walking as can happen in some of my 7.5 sneakers. My left foot is a half size smaller than my right and happily the boot is stable. My only concern is my pinkie toe feels like it's pressing on the outside of both boots. I may need to exchange for the wide. I am surprised the heel isn't bothering me as I have been living in sneakers for the last 5 years, but they are actually comfortable to walk in. I was a little disappointed that they were not more cushioned I would really love a beautiful boot that is cushioned like my Brooks sneakers are 😀. I decided to try the inserts they sent and placed the blue insert under the Orthofeet insole, it definitely helped a little with the cushioning. Enough to make this good for me. Next I put in the arch support as I have high arches, perfect fit. I am thrilled the boots are not to loose around my ankles also. I will be keeping these or exchanging for a 7.5wide and hope the boots and slippers I have coming are a good fit also. Orthofeet as a company has been very responsive to my questions and the service has been great. I have been searching for black boots with good support that I can wear for at least a few hours when going out. These will fit that bill and maybe longer once broken in. Happy to have found Orthofeet. Read more

Love the comfort level! They feel like they were made just for my feet! I never even had to break them in! They are also very well made. I wear them every where! Read more

What buyers need to know: Runs a bit narrow. 7 W fits more like a 7 m. Layers are removable. The arch support is good. The spacers are hard and the removable sole is about a 3 on the cushion scale. (Not quite enough for my foot issues.) **Deep enough to accommodate your own orthodic/choice of insole!!!** Looks nice. Cuter than other orthodic shoes I've looked at. Seems to be authentic leather. If you don't mind the seams across the toe it's a cute boot. Leaves black streaks on school tile floors, but not on my ceramic tile floors and home. More details/ my story: In my early 30s I had a surgery to put a screw in my upper right foot. Due to swelling of the scar tissue and painful tenderness near the screw, I need an orthopedic footbed with LOTS of cushion. The included inserts were not enough to prevent foot pain. Very hard. I am a true 7, rarely need wide, BUT all boots this season I've tried (in just about every comfort brand out there) have run very narrow. I ordered a 7 W in these Ortho Feet boots as I have sent back about eight pairs of boots from other comfort brands. The 7 W finally was the right fit. I chose Ortho feet as they advertised layers which can be removed. I thought would help with warm winter socks. This also allowed me to remove the spacers and put in a Dr. schools ultra cushy insole. I hope later to have an orthodic insert made. This shoe is deep enough to accommodate one if you need it. Read more

I have a few different issues with my feet so I have to be cautious about my footwear. I have worn ugly, flat/orthopedic shoes for more than 5 years. I took a chance on these because they looked like something I could wear. They are VERY comfortable and don't cause flare ups of plantar fasciitis or another foot problem I have. My ankles feel secure and I feel like my feet are pretty for the first time in several years! I am 5' 6" and I weigh 260 pounds. I wear these for 3-4 hours at a time with no problems. Definitely worth the money. Good quality footwear. Read more

Maybe pricey but well worth the money. Comfortable, perfect fit. true to size. Read more

Original Review after trying them on: Amazingly, these boots perform as promised: they feel like I am wearing tennis shoes. Very comfortable and cute. Revised Review after I wore them to work: 2 hours in and my feet were aching. I had to change shoes at that point. These were the 3rd Orthofeet shoes I’ve tried with no luck. Apparently this brand is not for me. Seems to run big and is bulky feeling. Read more
