Does anyone know where you can get girls' black school shoes (infant sizes) to fit over splints (AFOs) as I am struggling to find anything that will fit.
My daughter starts infant school this week and I have not found any shoes to fit over her splints yet. The shoes have to be black for school and not trainers.
At home since having the splints we have been using some wide fitting T-bar shaped shoes from a normal shoe shop that are a reasonable fit, but they are pink! I can't find anywhere yet that does T-bar black school shoes (without gaudy designs etc on them).
Does anyone have any suggestions of where I can get black school shoes (preferably not boots) that fit over splints?
Do hospital orthotics departments do school shoes (preferably not boots) to go over AFOs?
