What conditions are Cadense Adaptive Shoes designed for?

Cadense Adaptive Shoes are designed for individuals with walking difficulties due to aging, injury, or neurological and physical conditions.

How do the shoes perform on snowy or icy conditions?

Great question! While Cadense Adaptive Shoes are designed for versatility on many surfaces—like carpets, hardwood floors, and pavements—they are not specifically designed for snowy or icy conditions. For your safety, we recommend using footwear with specialized traction for those environments.


If you have any other questions or need guidance, feel free to reach out to us atsupport@cadense.com. Stay safe and warm this season!

Can I drive with Cadense Shoes?

While Cadense shoes are designed to improve mobility and walking confidence, we recommend exercising extra caution if you plan to drive in them. It’s important to ensure you feel fully comfortable and confident walking in the shoes before attempting to drive. If you’re uncertain, consider testing them in a controlled, safe environment first.
If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out to us at support@cadense.com – we’re happy to help!

How does the variable friction technology work?

The variable friction technology in Cadense shoes removes the friction between the shoe and the ground according to the user's movement, helping to prevent the foot from catching on the floor during the swing phase of walking.

Can I use Cadense shoes for restorative exercise?

Absolutely! Cadense Adaptive Shoes are designed not only for everyday walking but also for restorative exercise. We recommend practicing your rhythmic walking pattern for at least 15 minutes per day, five days a week, either at home or at a restorative facility.

How do I care for my Cadense shoes?

To maintain your Cadense Adaptive shoes, regularly wipe them with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry. Avoid using harsh chemicals or direct heat sources for cleaning or drying.

For further details contact our customer support team.

How long will the shoes last?

The lifespan of Cadense Adaptive Shoes depends on two key factors:

  1. the severity of scuffing and
  2. the walking surface

For example, someone who scuffs lightly and only occasionally, even when walking on concrete sidewalks, may find that the shoes last a year or more. However, for those who heavily scuff with each step on rough surfaces like pebble-infused concrete, the shoes may last only a month or two. To extend the life of the shoes, we recommend that individuals with heavy scuffs use them primarily on indoor surfaces like hardwood or carpet.

Payment options

Can I pay for my shoes with my FSA or HSA?

Yes, please feel free to use your HSA or FSA debit/credit card just like you would use a regular card during checkout.

Do you offer financing options?

Yes, you can use ShopPay Installments / Affirm to finance your purchase with Cadense for as little as 0% APR.
