Description

The Porto Blue AS (‘Autonomy Shoe’) is ideal for wearers who are looking for a high quality, practical and comfortable outdoor shoe that has been designed specifically for hemiplegics and stroke patients. The upper is made from water-resistant, breathable fabric and has a seamless lining. The specially designed heel facilitates easy access of the foot and the BOA® fixation system ensures the shoe closes evenly and easily with one hand.

 

Available in sizes 6.5/7, and 10 (40, 44). This brand is being discontinued so if you cannot find your size, please try a different style.

 

Designed for stroke, hemiplegia and AFO wearers:
These trendy, training-shoe style outdoor shoes are designed to look smart and attractive – a High Street look – but specially designed with features to help stroke and hemiplegic patients.

Drop-down heel:
The Porto has a specially designed ‘drop-down’ heel that can be opened and fastened to allow easy foot (and AFO) access.

One-handed opening, closing and fastening:
The drop-down heel is easily opened and fastened using one hand due to the unique BOA® fastening system.

Seamless lining:
The lining of the uppers is seamless, reducing the risk of rubbing which can create sores.

BOA® fastening system:
The shoes are secured using the simpe, innovative BOA® fastening system. The fastening ensures that the shoe doesn’t ‘loosen’ whilst being worn and is easy to tighten and loosen with one hand.

Intelligent sole design:
The specially designed, innovative sole has been designed to improve the gait of the wearer, with an extended ‘rocker’ at the front of the shoe to help improve stride length and rounded edges to the soles to help prevent tripping and falls.
