Wearing comfortable and well-fitted shoes is necessary and can make your feet healthy and manage the symptoms of diabetes. Here are a few things you must look for in your shoes:

Your shoes should be 1/4 to 1/2 inch deeper than normal shoes so that you do not feel uncomfortable when dealing with calluses or hammertoes.

Instead of pointed toes, buy the one with a spacious toe box. This is will give enough room to your toes to move and reduce the chance of corns, calluses, and blisters.

Avoid high-heel and high-heeled shoes as they put excessive pressure on your foot.

Do not buy any fancy, strappy and open toe shoes. The straps put pressure on certain points of your feet, which can easily cause blisters. Even slippers are not the best option. Wear laced shoes as they provides better support and fit your feet perfectly.

Whenever planning to buy new shoes, do it at the end of the day. Our feet are swollen at the end and if your shoes fit in at that time, you would not have any problem later.
