Tell Your Pedors Story #5 - Carlo and Pedors Lymphedema Shoes
Posted by Helén Kirk O'Hare, Director of Comfort on Jan 19, 2025
Do you mind sharing in general terms your primary foot issue or issues?
Since early 2023, I have suffered from lymphedema in the lower limbs. That has caused swelling of my feet and legs. Movement is impaired, and finding trousers and shoes that fit my current size has become a real problem.
What convinced you to give Pedors a go?
To the best of my knowledge, Pedors is the only brand providing shoes specifically designed for people with lymphedema. I tried a bunch of other brands producing shoes for people with diabetes, but they just did not fit. Also, your website is very detailed and provides the information needed to make the right choice of model and size.
Now that you have a pair of Pedors, what features of the product you chose do you like best (ease of use, light weight, stretch upper etc.)?
Definitely the ease of use and large size.
In what ways have your Pedors shoes impacted your quality of life?
I started to go out for a walk after a long time and do activities outdoors, which I could not do anymore because of the lack of proper shoes.
For people reading who may be considering buying a pair of Pedors for themselves, but have yet to take the plunge, would you encourage them to do so?
Yes, definitely. I find them light and robust, and they will help you e4ectively face the problems posed by health conditions that make your feet swell
