Product details
The DARCO Heel Wedge is a post-surgical and wound-care shoe designed to off-load pressure from the heel by shifting weight toward the mid- and forefoot. It's built to support recovery from rearfoot trauma, heel wounds and ulcerations, or surgery involving the heel.
A square toe design acts as a protective bumper, while the secure ankle strap and removable forefoot closure combine for a firm, adjustable fit that accommodates dressings and swelling.
