Diabetes affects how your body turns food into energy and often causes foot problems like nerve damage, numbness, swelling, and slow healing wounds. Diabetics should avoid going barefoot. Pandere Shoes offer wide and extra-wide toe boxes with built-in expansion for toes, midfoot, and ankle areas. Our closed-toe styles have removable insoles and are orthotic friendly.

A bunion is a bony bump that forms on the joint at the base of your big toe. It occurs when some of the bones in the front part of your foot move out of place. This can be genetic, caused by arthritis, or from wearing shoes that were too tight. People with bunions should look for shoes with an expandable toe-box and a wider base to accommodate their toes and bunion.

A hammertoe has an abnormal bend in the middle joint of a toe. They happen when extra pressure on toes forces them into a bunched-up or curled shape. This condition is usually caused by wearing shoes that fit poorly. People with hammertoes should look for shoes with a roomier toe box and allow for custom inserts. Pandere closed toe shoes include an unanchored toebox for expansion where needed. Pandere Shoes also have soft interiors for sensitive toes.

Pregnancy is a very common cause of foot swelling, especially in the third trimester. The pressure of the growing baby can cause fluid to build up in the legs, ankles, and feet. Millions of women suffer in agony from swelling during pregnancy with the thought that they just have to hang in there until the baby is born. Pandere shoes can provide tremendous relief and will still fit wonderfully after birth. Pregnant women should seek comfortable shoes with high-quality, removable insoles that accommodate daily swelling around the ankles, top of the foot, and toes.

Braces and AFOs are foot and ankle devices worn inside shoes to stabilize and support. They aid in injury recovery and prevention, available in various styles and sizes for both acute and chronic conditions. Finding shoes that fit braces well can be hard because of their size, but Pandere Shoes are great for many braces because they make extra room for the middle and ankle parts of your foot.

Lipedema causes excess fat buildup in the lower body, primarily in the buttocks, thighs, and calves, with possible upper arm involvement. Those with lipedema need shoes that fit swollen feet and ankles, expanding in the ankle, midfoot, and toe box. Pandere shoes offer foot compression to ease swelling discomfort.
