Dear Jim,
I have 2 suggestions.
1. They should be sure to order the boot in a Narrow width if they have not
already done so.
2. Most Orthotists here use 1/4 plastazoes in an upside down horseshoe in
the shoe additionally.
3. We are just now coming out with an open-toe boot with a cut-out in the
heel which will be available in the Narrow, Medium, and a new Wide width.
The new model will allow doctor and parents to be sure that heel is well
seated. In addition the instep strap, which is crucial, can be tightened to
the max without fear of causing undue pressure on the calcaneus. The new
model
is our #1645. We will have them in stock by end of this month.
Thanks!
