Why Diabetic Sneakers Matter

Diabetic sneakers aren't just stylish. They play a crucial role in your foot health. Here are some key benefits:

  • Enhanced Comfort and Support: Our diabetic sneakers feature superior cushioning and arch support, designed to reduce discomfort and prevent pressure sores. This is especially important for individuals with sensitive feet.
  • Protection from Foot Complications: These shoes are crafted to shield your feet from common issues such as ulcers, blisters, and calluses, which can be serious concerns for those with diabetes.
  • Proper Sizing for Optimal Fit: Diabetic sneakers come in various sizes and widths, ensuring a perfect fit. This helps minimize rubbing and chafing, making each step comfortable.
  • Breathable Materials for Healthy Feet: Many of our sneakers are made from breathable materials, allowing air circulation. This helps maintain a healthy foot environment and keeps your feet dry and comfortable.

How to Obtain Diabetic Sneakers

Securing your diabetic sneakers should be a straightforward process. Here’s how to get started:

Step 1: Consult Your Healthcare Provider

  • Discuss your need for diabetic sneakers with your healthcare provider. They can evaluate your condition and determine if specialized footwear suits you.

Step 3: Visit a Certified Shoe Fitter

  • At No Cost Shoes, we help you find a certified shoe fitter in your area. These professionals ensure your sneakers are properly fitted, providing the comfort and support you need.

Step 4: Enjoy the Benefits

Questions to Consider When Choosing Diabetic Sneakers

Selecting the right diabetic sneakers is essential for your health and comfort. Here are some questions to keep in mind:

Are they comfortable?
Make sure the sneakers fit well without pinching or constricting your feet. After trying them on, check for any red spots or discomfort.

Do I like the style?
You’ll want to feel good about what you’re wearing. Look for sneakers that fit your style, so you’ll be more inclined to wear them consistently.

Are there too many seams?
Fewer seams can mean less friction, reducing the risk of blisters. Pay attention to this detail to ensure maximum comfort.

Am I likely to trip?
Choose sneakers with a sturdy sole to help prevent slips and falls. Your safety is paramount, so look for non-slip features.

Is there enough room for insoles?
If you use orthotics or diabetic socks, make sure your sneakers have enough depth to accommodate them comfortably.

Getting Coverage for Your Diabetic Sneakers  

To help ease the financial burden, we work directly with Medicare and other insurance plans. You’ll need three documents from two medical professionals to get coverage:  

A prescription verifying the need for diabetic sneakers.
A certification from your diabetes healthcare provider.
A receipt from a qualified supplier.  

At No Cost Shoes, we handle the paperwork, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish.
