- READ ABOUT OUR SMART BILLY ZIPPER SHOES.
There can be many different reasons why feet cause problems and ordinary shoes and sneakers don't always fit. The common factor, however, is that we almost never consider that putting on shoes can be difficult - not until we experience the problem ourselves.
Many people have chronic conditions, such as diabetes, blood clots in the legs, reduced mobility, foot drop, neurological disorders, or reduced motor function in the legs and feet.
For some people, it can be incredibly painful to squeeze sore or swollen feet into a pair of shoes, and for many, it's almost impossible.
A fortunate few may be granted a pair of custom-made, ergonomic, or orthopedic shoes, but while these can be practical, they are rarely very stylish or particularly discreet.
Regardless of our age, most of us want to find shoes that both meet our needs and make us feel stylish and comfortable.
At Seniorpleje, we have tried to find zipper shoes for all age groups, both in regular width and XL width for those who, for example, use ankle-foot orthoses, compression stockings, or leg braces. We have shoes for children, teenagers, and adults in sizes 28-45.

- Whether it's due to pain, swollen feet, foot drop, or ankle-foot orthoses, we are ready to help you find just the right pair of shoes for you.
All our shoes have removable insoles. The insoles are soft & shock-absorbing but can be easily removed if you wish to use your own insoles or have custom orthotics.
The unique thing about all our models is that it takes no more than a few seconds to put the shoes on and take them off:
- You fully unzip the shoe and fold the upper to one side.
- You place your foot directly onto the sole.
- You zip the zipper shoe all the way around.
- Voila, done! (the shoelaces are only used once to adjust the height of the shoe to fit your instep)
Information about types and models:
The wide models (wide = W) are particularly suitable for those with very wide feet, edema, compression stockings, ankle-foot orthoses, and leg braces.
The normal widths fit most people, regardless of whether you have a high, normal, or flat instep. For these models, the most important thing is to decide whether you want a low model, where the ankle is free, or a higher model that provides good ankle support. The high models are especially good if you tend to sprain your ankle or if you use braces to stabilize your foot or ankle joint.
The sports shoes are designed a little differently, as the zipper is moved slightly higher up on the foot so that the toes do not rub if you walk a lot or play sports. These sneakers/sports shoes are also good for active people with diabetes, as they prevent pressure on the toes.
