Step Into Faster Forefoot Healing with DARCO OrthoWedge Off-Loading Shoe 👣

Описание: In this video, we walk through what the Darco OrthoWedge is, who should use it, and how it helps protect your forefoot after surgery, trauma, or when wounds/ulcers are present. The OrthoWedge is a forefoot off-loading shoe designed to shift pressure away from the toes and metatarsal heads so tissues can heal with less stress.

🦶 What is the DARCO OrthoWedge?

The Darco OrthoWedge is a post-op / wound care shoe that uses a 15° wedge sole to shift body weight towards the midfoot and heel. This design can reduce forefoot pressure by up to 57%, helping protect surgical sites, diabetic wounds, and other forefoot injuries during walking.

🔑 Key Features Shown in This Video

15° wedge sole – Off-loads the forefoot by redirecting pressure to the midfoot and heel.

Square-toe design – Acts as a bumper to protect the toes and dressings (including when K-wires are present).
Ankle strap – Seats the foot firmly into the shoe to reduce heel slippage and friction.
Removable forefoot closure – Helps secure the foot without creating buckle pressure over sensitive areas.
EVA insole with extra padding – Features roughly twice the cushioning of standard insoles and can be modified or replaced with PegAssist® off-loading insoles for more targeted pressure relief.
Universal fit – Can be worn on either the left or right foot and is sold as a single shoe.
