Twiki orthopedic shoes are designed to promote healthy foot development and posture in children. These high-quality shoes incorporate several key features to support proper foot alignment and reduce the risk of developing orthopedic problems:

• Rigid Heel Counter: Provides firm support to the heel, stabilizing the ankle joint during walking and preventing the development of orthopedic pathologies.
• Arch Support (Supinator): A built-in, elastic arch support prevents flat feet (pes planus), supports the arches, and strengthens the musculoskeletal system.
• Thomas Heel or Wide Stable Heel: Extending inwards, this design prevents inward rolling of the foot, maintaining balance and promoting proper gait.
• Shock Absorber System: Cushions the heel impact, reducing stress on the musculoskeletal system.
• Flexible, Anatomically Correct Sole: Distributes weight evenly, promoting natural movement and reducing strain.
• Soft Heel Counter Edge: Prevents chafing, even with extended daily wear.
• Double Velcro Closure: Allows for adjustable fit to accommodate varying foot widths.
• Premium Materials: Crafted from natural leather and nubuck with a natural leather lining for breathability and comfort.

Functions & Benefits:

• Supports and shapes foot arches.
• Stabilizes the heel in cases of valgus deformity.
• Corrects heel bone positioning.
• Reduces stress on foot, knee, and hip joints.
• Promotes the development of a healthy walking pattern.

Indications:

• Mild flat foot (pes planovalgus) – Grade I.
• Prevention of static foot deformities, especially during periods of rapid growth and in children at risk (frequently ill children, hyperflexible joints, poor posture, weight deficiency or excess).

Contraindications:

No absolute contraindications. Consult a physician for relative contraindications, such as the need for custom orthotics or complex orthopedic footwear.

Care Instructions:

• Clean shoes after each use with a clean, dry cloth or shoe brush.
• Store in a dark, dry place.
• If shoes get wet, remove excess moisture with a dry cloth or paper towels. Insert dry paper towels or cloth inside to help maintain shape during drying.
