Vive Wedge Post-Op Shoe - Offloading Boot for Heel or Ankle Pain - Medical Foot Recovery for Bone or Soft Tissue Surgery, Fracture, Plantar Fasciitis, Ulcerations, Feet (Large)

I HAVE HAD PULLED MUSCLES IN MY HEEL AND ANKLE FOR 3 MONTHS NOW, FROM CLIMBING MY 6' LADDER OVER 300 TIMES IN A 10 DAY PERIOD TO REMODEL MY BEDROOM JUST BEFORE THANKSGIVING 2025. I JUST WENT TO THE PODIATRIST TO SEE WHY IT WOULDN'T HEAL, AND THEY TOLD ME TO DO STRETCHES AND USE ICE AND HEAT, BUT I WAS STILL DEALING WITH THIS INTENSE STABBING PAIN IN MY HEEL. I DECIDED TO TRY THIS FRONT LOADING VIVE WEDGE TO TAKE SOME OF THE WEIGHT OFF OF MY HEEL, AND IT'S WORKING GREAT. I'M FEELING BETTER, AND THE PAIN IT SLOWLY GOING AWAY. IT FITS REALLY WELL, AND IS LIGHT, SO THAT I DON'T FEEL LIKE I'M WEARING A LEAD SHOE. I HAVE ALSO GONE OUT AND WORKED IN MY GARDEN WEARING IT, SO IT'S VERY DURABLE.

I ordered this for my 90 year-old at home, who had a heel ulcer. She’s very mobile with her walker and required a shoe that would cover her wound and provide safety placement of the foot while walking. I highly endorse this, not affiliated with anyone. This really worked out for nearly 4 months of her recovery. She used it to go to church and family outings, it offered normal balance for her to walk. I cleaned it often with a normal disinfecting, wipe and let it air dry. It offered comfortable Velcro to adjust. I am a nurse and I highly recommend this shoe for any person who may have a heel or calcaneus procedure, heal, spur, or ulcer that is being treated.

Wasn't really a fan of this one. I returned it. Didn't feel like it gave enough support and the material very hard.

My husband has had to use this off loading shoe for several months. Well made and does the job of keeping pressure off of his heel. Good quality and price.

heel recovery shoe (using for heel-spur/plantar fasciitis) Pro: good for short term use,, easy to walk in, able to place my own orthotics inside to have arch support, & pressure is relieved from most of the heel not all of the heel. Con: I have been using it daily, from January 2023-3/17/2023, and it ripped completely apart. Although, it relieves some pressure off of the middle and back part of the heel, it doesn’t relieve the front pressure of the heel. No arch support included.

I have a few of these, unfortunately not ever where I am. While it helps bursitis of the heel, be careful not to wear continuously. Will shorten your Achilles which is not what you want. Roll your ankles and smaller achilles flexes to relieve as well

Very pleased with the product, but I need to add a soft insole and find a shoe for the healthy foot of the same height; doing this prevented back and hip pain. In the end I used strap on rubber crampons and turned them inside out to balance the height.

Husband loves the shoe. Definitely takes pressure off of heel.

Exelente calidad

Cet article est comme il est décrit. Quand vous avez de gros pansements, impeccable, mais quand c'est juste pour un escart au talon la chaussure est grosse et lourde. Mais le principal c'est que ça soulage quand même

This is an amazing boot. Really helps protect my heel - after surgery

Just used my shoe for the first time. What a relief! Have been hobbling around for a week trying not to put my heel down, it was painful & exhausting. Now I can walk again without the intense heel pain. Bit of advice, try matching your other shoe to the same height as the Vive shoe. Makes walking so much easier. Thanks for the quick delivery, it’s made such a difference.
