Why we made this shoe

We have designed the first truly adaptive shoe in the world for people with walking difficulties. Often they can't lift their foot enough to clear the ground when taking a step forward. In order to not trip they shuffle or develop a different coping mechanism.

Our Cadense Original Women's Adaptive Shoe features groundbreaking, patented variable friction technology. It allows its wearer to slide over obstacles with ease and develop a more normal gait. 

But we have not stopped there. We made sure that the first truly adaptive shoe also feels like walking on clouds and looks stunning.

Product Details

AFO compatibility: Our shoes might work with your AFO depending on its size. If you currently are able to fit your AFO into a shoe in a regular or Wide (D) width shoe, it should work with Cadense shoes.

Toe box: Our toe box is very generously spaced.

Weight of the shoe: About 10.8 oz per shoe – Women's size 8 was used as reference.

Heel to Toe Drop: Standard 3/8".

Shoe sole height: Our shoe sole measures about 1.5 inches throughout. The height is needed to allow the variable friction technology to work properly and it also makes for a very comfortable walking experience.

Love these shoes

I am a one year post, Hemorrhagic Stroke survivor with left side deficits. I purchased the black Cadense shoes, received them promptly & while I'm still adjusting to them; so far, they have been great!

Amazing!

I’m a 26 year stroke survivor and was skeptical a pair of shoes could make walking easier. But these really did. I can put them on one handed and they make it easier to not catch my toes on the floor when I walk. I liked them so much I ordered another pair in another color.

Let me assure you, these shoes are A LIFE SAVER! I used to sit & ponder how to get up & walk 5 feet,the most easily. It was exhausting. I workout DAILY mind you, H ARD @ gym & home.

Frequently asked questions

Who are the shoes for?

We have created the Cadense Original adaptive sneaker for people experiencing walking difficulties. Our shoe may help seniors with walking difficulties, individuals experiencing foot drop, stroke patients, people with multiple-sclerosis, or cerebral palsy.

How do Cadense Adaptive Shoes work?

Cadense adaptive shoes use our proprietary, patent-pending variable friction technology.

Low-friction elements on the shoe sole allow you the slide over everyday obstacles like uneven pavements. High friction rubber parts get activated when weight is placed on the shoe and allow you to stop and toe-off as needed.

See more details on how the Cadense Adaptive shoes work.

Which size should I pick?

When selecting the size for our shoes, we recommend choosing your regular size as our shoes are true to size. Our sizing is designed to provide a comfortable and accurate fit based on standard sizing conventions.
If you are uncertain about your size or have specific concerns, you may refer to our sizing guide for additional guidance. Feel free to reach out to our customer service team for personalized assistance. We want to ensure that you find the perfect fit and have a positive experience with our adaptive footwear.
