The technology
Cadense shoes use patented Variable Friction Technology™ — a sole that glides over the surface as your foot swings forward, then grips the instant you put weight down. No catching. No stumbles. Just a smoother, steadier stride.
Why Cadense
Every order includes free shipping and free 30-day returns.
Regular sneakers grip everywhere, so a foot that doesn't lift fully catches and sticks. Orthopedic shoes add support but not glide — and they look like medical equipment. Cadense does both: glides when you swing, grips when you stand.

Adaptive AFO Shoe
The Cadense Adaptive AFO Shoe pairs our patented sole with a fit designed around ankle-foot orthoses — no fighting your brace, and no bulky medical look.
How it works
Easy to put on — and easier to walk in.
No laces to tie, no rigidity to fight — a wide opening and a secure fit.
The low-friction zones let your foot glide over surfaces instead of catching.
Weight down, grip engages — stand, push off, and turn with confidence.
Support that stays with you
Developed alongside physical therapists and gait specialists.
Real humans help you choose the right size, width, and style.
Wearers report steadier strides and fewer stumbles from day one.
Engineered to last
We've seen firsthand how hard it is to admit you have hearing loss—and even harder to actually get hearing aids.
Tired of the endless appointments, long waits, and $5,000 price tags, we built Atom One: the world's first FDA-registered over-the-counter hearing aid for just $99.
Now anyone can get real, audiologist-developed hearing support without the barriers.

Real customers
My husband has foot drop and was tripping and falling. Since he has been wearing the new Cadense shoes he hasn't tripped once or fallen. He can walk faster now too.
I tried a traditional AFO that didn't stop it and made me walk worse. I took a risk and ordered my first pair... that was a year ago and I have not tripped once since then.
With the ability to slide my left foot when it begins to be difficult to lift, I am now able to add additional steps. I am 48 and determined not to be limited to a wheelchair.
