Also, many doctors recommend a stiff soled shoe or the addition of a carbon plate to a shoe that you would have to have custom made.

I'm wondering if rocker bottom shoes might be good for her and possibly help the toe walking? She is 4 and wears size 11 so I'm not sure if they come that small?

The rocker shoes that we sell will keep you stable, balanced and will improve your posture. Our rocker shoes also ease walking for the wearer, so each step should be comfortable and easy to take.

This standard rocker will keep you stable but make it easier to walk. The Drew Women's Mary Jane Bloom II accommodates AFOs and has two removable inserts, so you can probably fit your insole and ankle brace in the shoe. You can see the shoe here: http://www.healthyfeetstore.com/womenshoes5.html Let us know if you have any other questions.

My question is I'm a caregiver and I'm on my feet a few hours. I was told my the podiatrist that I should get Rock bottom sneaker. I will also have a brace and orthro (insole). I notice if I'm on my feet or if I'm not I get pain my the right ankle. What is the best shoe to wear to support the ankle? Hi,
