Heavy Duty shoe soling

Clinical Orthotic Consultants

Season’s Greetings,

I have an adult client with mild diplegic CP. He wears AFO’s occasionally
when he works at a restaurant to delay fatigue when on his feet a lot, but
most of the time he manages quite well without AFO’s.

His biggest problem is wearing out the medial toe of his shoes.he will go
through a pair a month. I have tried three different soling materials which
I wrap up and over the medial toe box, shoe goo it in place and stitch it as
well. The latest material that I used was “contitech rau crepe 6mm” and he
still went through this in about 6 weeks.

Any other suggestions for this problem?

Will post replies.

Thank you,
