FAQs

What is an extra depth shoe?

An extra depth shoe provides additional vertical space within the shoe, particularly in the toe box area. These shoes are designed to accommodate various foot conditions or special needs, such as orthotics, foot deformities or swelling.

The extra depth allows more room for the toes to move and provides additional space for custom orthotic inserts. This is especially helpful for individuals with conditions like bunions, hammertoes, diabetes related foot issues, or other foot problems that require extra space to alleviate pressure and discomfort. It’s also a great solution for people who like wearing thick socks.

What size is extra deep?
The term ‘extra deep’ typically refers to the additional space within a shoe, particularly in the toe box area, rather than indicating a specific shoe size. It denotes the depth or height of the shoe's interior space from the insole to the top of the shoe.

Why Extra Depth Matters

Most shoes are built to a standard depth that fits the average foot, which means they fail a significant portion of wearers who need more room. People who use custom orthotics need a shoe deep enough to accommodate the device without compressing the foot above it. People with high insteps need vertical space that standard shoes do not provide. People managing swelling from edema, diabetes, or long days of standing need a shoe that does not tighten as the day progresses. People with hammertoes or bunions need room for the changed contours of their feet. Orthofeet extra depth shoes are built to serve all of these needs with genuine interior volume, generous in all dimensions, combined with the orthopedic construction that makes that extra room a foundation for comfort rather than just empty space.


Extra Depth Construction Combined with Orthopedic Engineering

Every Orthofeet extra depth shoe starts with a construction that provides significantly more vertical volume than a standard shoe, giving the foot genuine room from the toe box through the midfoot and into the heel. This extra depth allows custom orthotics to be accommodated without compressing the foot, provides space for high insteps to rest without pressure from the upper, and gives swollen or larger-volume feet room to change throughout the day without becoming uncomfortably tight. Within that spacious construction, the full Orthofeet orthopedic platform delivers anatomical arch support and Arch Booster technology for alignment, advanced cushioning for impact protection, and a non-binding seamless interior for all-day comfort. Extra-wide widths are available for feet that need room in both dimensions.
