OTC 2096 Soft Top Post-Op Shoe, in men's and women's fittings. A flat, open-topped shoe worn over a dressing, cast padding or bandaged foot while it heals. It replaces the regular shoe that no longer fits — which is usually the problem people are trying to solve when they come looking for one. What it does Semi-rigid sole — limits how far the foot flexes as you walk, so the healing area isn't loaded with every step Reinforced heel counter with a padded collar — holds the heel steady and stops the shoe sliding off Two adjustable straps — open wide enough to close over bulky dressings, then tighten down as swelling drops Soft poly-cotton upper — breathable, with nothing rigid pressing on a tender foot Fits either foot — one shoe, left or right, so there's no wrong side to order When it's used After forefoot and soft-tissue surgery — bunion and hammertoe corrections, osteotomies — and after breaks and sprains where a full walking boot is more than the injury needs. It's also worn by people with reduced sensation in the feet, where an ordinary shoe can rub without being felt. Sizing Choose the men's or women's fitting to match your usual shoe sizing, then order by your normal size in it. The shoe should close comfortably over the dressing with your toes sitting inside the footplate rather than over the front edge. If you're between sizes or the dressing is bulky, go up. Post-op shoe or walking boot? A post-op shoe protects and offloads; a walking boot immobilises the ankle as well. Your surgeon's instructions decide which one you need — they aren't interchangeable. If you were told to get a boot, we stock those too. Not sure which you were prescribed? Bring the discharge paperwork to the showroom or call 604-240-2450 and we'll work it out with you. Same-day delivery across the Lower Mainland.
