More Details
The main difference is in the sole of the shoe. When wearing conventional shoes, only two areas of the foot sustain the weight of the body. With Arcopedico shoes, the weight of the body is distributed along the whole sole of the foot due to its unique sole. The Arcopedico was scientifically designed to completely adapt itself to the wearer's structure. This includes the fabric around the feet, the sole and the materials used.

The shoes reduce fatigue and enable the correct circulation of blood, prevent varicose veins and rationally distribute the weight of the body through the tissues, muscles and bones of the feet.





These shoes combine knitted uppers with orthopaedically designed moulded PVC soles. The hand knitted uppers are knitted from one continuous strand of quality, surgical grade nylon. They allow feet to breathe and move freely. Bunions, hammer toes and swollen feet are accommodated without restriction.

Shoes are machine washable. Available in nine sizes and in various colours.
