FAQs

Diabetic inserts are specifically designed to reduce pressure points, friction, and the risk of foot ulcers. They are often made from softer, more accommodating materials compared to regular orthotics and provide a higher level of cushioning and support.

While some diabetic inserts can fit into regular shoes, it’s best to use them with shoes designed for diabetics to ensure proper support and fit. Diabetic shoes are constructed to accommodate inserts and provide additional features beneficial for diabetic foot care.
