Overview

About this category

Supportive footwear spreads load across the foot and can ease heel and arch pain. Arch support thongs and slides give that support in summer footwear, which matters in Perth when most people spend months in thongs.

Offloading shoes, walker boots and carbon fibre plates take pressure off an injury, a wound or a fracture while it heals. They are clinical devices, and the right size and fit affect how well they work.

Funding and access

NDSS access and eligibility

Footwear and orthotics are not subsidised through the NDSS. These are private purchase items.

Buying guide

Choosing the right item

  • Arch support thongs and slides come in whole sizes; if you are between sizes, try the larger
  • Walker boots, offloading shoes and carbon fibre plates should be fitted, because the wrong size moves pressure rather than removing it
  • If you live with diabetes and have a foot wound or reduced feeling, see a podiatrist before choosing an offloading device

Our podiatrists can assess, size and fit these for you.

What you pay depends on your NDSS entitlement, so choose an option on a card to see its price before adding it to the cart. Concession, Closing the Gap, DVA and private purchase prices all differ, and eligibility is verified before dispensing.
