Is the Boot Comfortable to Wear?

This boot is designed to be as protective as possible while remaining highly comfortable and forgiving. The square toe acts as a protective bumper for the toes, shielding them from any stubs or impacts. To ensure a comfortable walking style, the rocker sole makes for a smooth roll throughout the gait pattern.

Is the Darco Boot Adjustable?

Post-operative footwear must be secure and stable to prevent unwanted friction and movement. That’s why this boot’s forefoot closure can be adjusted to provide a perfect fit, with a choice between a left and right closure. For full stability, a higher ankle strap is included, which firmly secures the foot in the correct position.

Can the Shoe Be Used With an Insole?

The Darco Boot features a fully removable insole that can be replaced with a Darco Peg Assist Insole if additional pressure offloading at precise points of the foot is required. This means that the comfort of the boot can be boosted on top of its already high level.
