Reviews
Zipper is the best way to get AFO in shoe
"Billy Shoes zipper function have been the best way to get an AFO in a shoe for my family member. However, even the wide size can be a tight squeeze. While the blue is a great color, we also have the same shoe in the white color leather material and found it’s easier to clean. Would love if there could be more color variety in that leather material. Overall, I’d recommend Billy Shoes for those who are caretaking for someone that uses an AFO."

Love Billy shoes
"I had a stroke in March 2026. Lost the use of my entire right side. These shoes offered me a low profile, stable, and easy to put on shoe that boosted my confidence and fit my brace. They helped foster my leg recovery. I no longer wear my brace and wear the medium width shoes because of how comfortable and stable they are. Thanks to the whole Billy team!!"

Great Support
"These shoes were purchased for a young man who needed braces on his legs & needed special shoes to accommodate the braces. He was very excited to pick out his own fashionable shoes, which fit well & give him great support."

Delightfully wide toe box
"I have wide feet with a very wide toe box. The type of foot that we used to joke that I buy shoes, throw away the shoes, and wear the shoe box instead. Pretty much all shoes my entire life have pushed against and squeezed my toes and given me blisters. While these shoes are designed for people with AFO's (the reason I originally heard of them), they are very comfortable for someone without AFO's too. I wish I could wear these shoes to work. They are very comfortable for my toes especially. As a bonus, I also semi-match with my toddler who wears AFO's and Billy shoes too. He's THRILLED."

These work great for independence.
"These shoes are great for my daughter with CP. She can put them and take them off herself. She gets a real sense of independence by being able to do this small thing by herself. They also are very durable as she is really tough on shoes in general. I highly recommend these to everyone."

Even my podiatrist was impressed...
"This shoe looks and feels like regular sneakers (not 'special shoes') but goes on SO much easier with the zipper and extra room for my AFO. It's a little bit too wide in the heel for the opposite foot but a little help from the podiatrist took care of that. Plenty of room for custom insoles too. Very comfortable to walk in, and no more trying to cram the AFO in a regular shoe. The laces make it easy to allow extra room where I need it. Only downside for me personally is that I wish the zippers went from outside to inside of the foot. Its hard for me to reach the last few inches of the zipper at the outside ankle when resting on my opposite knee (which is how I get my AFO in place) Planning on another pair!"

Great shoes
"Billy shoes have been a blessing to our family. Typically the shoe doesn't come close to out lasting the afo, but Billy shoes definitely delivered. My son never complained during the typical break in period and didn't get any sores as with previous afo shoe combos. His walking has even improved! 5 star shoe would totally recommend!"

The only shoes my son wears!
"My 12 year old has incredibly wide feet and these are the only shoes we have found that fit him. He loves them and I love how they last until his feet grow again and he needs another pair. Worth every penny every time! The zippers are wonderful for the audhd need to always have them fit the same way every day. Tie once and just zip and go in the mornings. He says they are incredibly comfortable and he doesn't want to look for another shoe. This is his third pair he's had now and I know we'll be buying more."

Great product
"Billy Footwear is a game changer for for my son with cerebral palsy. Before I discovered Billy Footwear, I had a terrible time getting shoes that I could get my son's foot into. These shoes are easy to slide into and the fit is great? Awesome quality too! I highly recommend."

My First Pair!
"I was complaining to my friend about the lack of cute shoes that will accommodate my orthotics. She suggested I check out Billy shoes as her son used them when he had leg braces. What a great surprise it was to see so many cute styles that would work for me! So, I ordered these purple ones, and I love them. The zippers make it easy to get my orthotics in was well as making them easy to put on. The adjustable laces are also great for insuring the proper fit. I'll be back for more!"
