Darco® GentleStep™ Shoe

Meets Unique Needs of Diabetic Patients

The DARCO® GentleStep™ Shoe features an extra-depth design that accommodates the unique needs of diabetic patients by providing ample room for custom orthotics, bandaging, and foot swelling. This added depth helps reduce pressure points and friction, promoting better foot health and lowering the risk of skin breakdown. Combined with a soft, seamless interior and a supportive sole, the GentleStep™ delivers comfort and protection for sensitive feet during recovery or daily use.

Firm Heel Counter

The DARCO® GentleStep™ Shoe is designed with a firm heel counter that helps ensure a stable, comfortable fit for individuals managing sensitive foot conditions. This supportive structure enhances rearfoot stability and minimizes heel slippage, which is especially important for patients with diabetes or neuropathy. Combined with its extra-depth design, cushioned insole, and breathable materials, the GentleStep™ promotes secure wear and long-lasting comfort throughout the day.

Supports Forwad Momentum

The DARCO® GentleStep™ Shoe features a mid rocker sole that promotes smooth, natural movement and makes walking easier for patients with foot sensitivity or post-operative needs. This sole design supports forward momentum while reducing strain on the forefoot and toes, enhancing comfort with each step. Paired with its extra-depth construction and firm heel counter, the GentleStep™ offers stability, protection, and improved mobility for individuals requiring specialized foot care.
