How to Choose a Post-Op Shoe

Match the shoe to what you're recovering from and who is wearing it.

After foot surgery

A broken toe or foot

A post-op shoe protects a broken toe; a broken foot bone may need a walking boot. Shop walking boots

Kids after surgery or a break

A pediatric post op shoe gives the same protection in smaller sizes. Shop pediatric braces

Frequently Asked Questions

How Do I Pick the Right Size Post-Op Shoe?

Check the size chart on each product page, since sizing differs by shoe and manufacturer. Most post-op shoes are sized by shoe size and leave room for bandages.

Can I Wear a Post-Op Shoe on Either Foot?

Many post-op shoes fit either foot, but some come in left and right versions. Check the product page before you order.

Can I Wear a Post-Op Shoe Over a Bandage or Cast?

Yes, post-op shoes are made to fit over surgical dressings, and adjustable straps let you loosen them as swelling changes. For a lower leg cast, a cast shoe made for that job is the usual choice.
