Size Guide

How to measure

  1. Stand on a sheet of paper with your heel against a wall, wearing the socks you will wear with the shoe.
  2. Mark the paper at the tip of your longest toe — that is not always the big toe.
  3. Measure from the wall to the mark. Do both feet and use the longer one.
  4. Measure at the end of the day, when feet are at their largest.

Widths

Most of what we carry comes in more than one width. If the length is right but the shoe feels tight across the ball of your foot, go wider rather than longer — sizing up for width leaves the arch support in the wrong place.

These are standard US measurements. Fit still varies by brand and by style, and if you wear an orthotic you may need a half size more room. Between sizes, or feet that never seem to fit anything? Call (704) 846-0301 — fitting is what we do.

The Orthofeet difference

Why Orthofeet

Podiatrist-designed comfort built into every pair.

Hands-free step-in

Patented firm-heel design lets you slip in without bending or tying. Tie the laces once to set your fit, then just step in.

Ortho-Cushion™ System

Bio-engineered arch support and multi-layer cushioning absorb impact heel-to-toe, easing pressure and fatigue on long days.

Removable insole

Take out the anatomical insole to make room for your own custom orthotics, or use fitting spacers to fine-tune the fit.

Wide toe box, seam-free

Extra depth and a roomy, seam-free interior take pressure off bunions, hammertoes, and sensitive or swollen feet.

Available in wide widths

Most styles come in Medium, Wide, and Extra Wide, so you get support without squeezing.

Try them at home

Wear them at home and see how they feel. If they are not right, call us and we will make it right with an exchange or a refund. We also offer free phone fittings with our Certified Pedorthist.

Plantar Fasciitis

So kind, patient and helpful

"Tim, the owner, was so kind and patient and very helpful! My mom got a pair of OrthoFeet Nira sneakers and she was so happy!!! She's been dealing with bursitis, tendinitis, and plantar fasciitis so we were so happy to find a local shop where she could try on a good pair of shoes. Highly recommend!!!!!"

On Feet All Day

12+ hours on my feet without pain

"What a fabulous store, owned by a father and his daughter. I recently started a job in healthcare, requiring I be on my feet for 12+ hours per shift, and my feet felt broken after three days in a row. Both the owner and his daughter were so friendly and helpful, and the owner really knew his stuff! Just in the few minutes of trying on shoes that actually fit MY feet, I could already tell the difference."

Above & beyond service

"Thank you so much to the Manager of Comfort Footworks in Matthew's NC. She went the extra mile in customer service! She hand delivered our elderly mom's orthopedic sneakers to her nursing home room. I am in Savannah Ga and couldn't pick up the shoes. Seniors are often a forgotten group of people. Thank you so much for treating her to this surprise."

Details

Orthofeet Blaire, a women's ankle boot in water-repellent leather with Orthofeet's hands-free heel. You step down on the heel counter, it collapses, then springs back, so the boot goes on without bending. A side strap sets the fit and a gore panel lets the boot flex with the ankle.

Ortho-Cushion sole with a no-slip tread. Removable orthotic insole, and Orthofeet's extra-depth last is the reason this brand is in the store: Blaire is stocked in Medium, Wide and X-Wide, which almost no dress-style boot offers. It takes a custom orthotic with room to spare.

Medium, Wide or X-Wide? Medium (B) if your regular shoes fit across the ball of the foot. Wide (D) if you size up for room or have a bunion. X-Wide (2E) for a bulky orthotic, swelling, or an extra-depth prescription. The strap adjusts the ankle, not the forefoot. Not sure on width? Call (704) 846-0301.

Stocked in Mushroom, Chocolate and Black, sizes 5 to 12 in half sizes; Chocolate starts at 6 and Black runs 6 to 9.5 right now. Screened and stocked by Paul Henderson, C.Ped, at our Matthews, NC store. Rosel is the plainer boot without the strap; Bliss is the lined winter boot. Not settled on width? My width guide walks through it.
