Built for men over 60
You don't have a “getting older” problem. You have a shoe problem.
Sore heels, aching knees, a stiff back. It's easy to blame your age, but flat, worn-out shoes are often the real cause. After 60 your heel padding thins and your arches drop. Ordinary sneakers don't make up for it. OrthoFit does.
- Thick heel cushion replaces the padding your heel has lost
- Built-in arch support stops your arch sagging on long walks
- True Wide fit for swelling, bunions or your own orthotics

So, what's bothering you most?
Tap a concern, or what your day looks like, to see how these help.
The problem
Thin, flat soles let the arch sag and hard heels land with a jolt, so your heel takes the strain with every step. It's worst first thing in the morning.
How OrthoFit helps
A supported arch and a thick, cushioned heel take the strain off, so those first steps out of bed hurt less.
The problem
Most men's shoes are cut narrow. Feet spread with age, and suddenly your usual size pinches.
How OrthoFit helps
A roomy, rounded toe box and a true Wide fitting give your feet proper space, not just stretchier fabric.
Recommended fit:
Choose my sizeThe problem
Feet swell through the day, so shoes that fit at breakfast squeeze by the afternoon.
How OrthoFit helps
The stretch-knit upper gives as your feet swell, and the elastic laces adjust with them.
Recommended fit:
Choose my sizeThe problem
Hard seams and tight spots press and rub, and with numb feet you may not notice for hours.
How OrthoFit helps
A soft knit upper and a roomy fit help avoid pressure points and rubbing. Check your feet daily and follow your doctor's advice.
Recommended fit:
Choose my sizeThe problem
Stiff uppers and hard soles press on sore joints and jar them with every step.
How OrthoFit helps
Soft knit eases pressure on stiff joints, and cushioning softens each step.
Recommended fit:
Choose my sizeThe problem
During a flare, even light pressure on the big-toe joint is unbearable.
How OrthoFit helps
Extra toe room and a soft knit upper mean less pressure on a swollen joint.
Recommended fit:
Choose my sizeThe problem
Unsupportive shoes let the arch collapse, so your feet, ankles and knees tire fast.
How OrthoFit helps
Built-in arch support gives your foot structure, so it doesn't collapse after an hour.
The problem
Narrow, shallow toe boxes press on bunions and rub bent toes raw.
How OrthoFit helps
A roomy toe box and soft knit give your toes space, so nothing presses or rubs.
Recommended fit:
Choose my sizeThe problem
Thin soles load your weight onto the ball of the foot until it burns.
How OrthoFit helps
Thick cushioning spreads the pressure across the whole forefoot.
The problem
Hours on hard floors and pavements leave your feet throbbing by dinner time.
How OrthoFit helps
Thick cushioning and arch support share the load, so your feet still feel good in the evening.
The problem
After 60 the natural fat pad under your heel thins, so every step lands bone-first on hard ground.
How OrthoFit helps
A thick, shock-absorbing heel makes up for the cushioning your feet have lost.
The problem
Narrow toe boxes squeeze the bones together and pinch the nerve between your toes.
How OrthoFit helps
A roomy, rounded toe box lets your toes spread, so there's less squeeze on the nerve.
Recommended fit:
Choose my sizeThe problem
Shallow, pointed shoes press down on sore nails with every step.
How OrthoFit helps
Extra toe room and a soft, giving knit keep pressure off your nails.
Recommended fit:
Choose my sizeThe problem
Tight laces and stiff uppers squeeze your feet and can leave them cold and tingly.
How OrthoFit helps
Elastic laces and a soft knit hold your foot without squeezing, with no tight spots. Follow your doctor's advice.
Recommended fit:
Choose my sizeThe problem
Leather and synthetic uppers trap heat, and damp feet rub and smell.
How OrthoFit helps
The perforated knit lets air in, so your feet stay cooler and drier all day.
The problem
Stiff seams and hard edges rub the same spot until it blisters.
How OrthoFit helps
The soft knit upper moves with your foot, so there are no hard seams across the top to rub.
The problem
Shoes that fit one foot are loose or tight on the other.
How OrthoFit helps
Order for your larger foot. The elastic laces snug up on the smaller one, so both feel secure.
The problem
Flat, wobbly shoes keep straining the tendon at the back of the heel.
How OrthoFit helps
Cushioning and a steady heel counter cut the jolt and wobble that strain it.
The problem
Stairs, hills and long walks are when sore knees complain most.
How OrthoFit helps
Softer landings on every step, so stairs and hills take less out of you.
The problem
Standing still is often the worst: waiting in line, cooking, an afternoon at the workbench.
How OrthoFit helps
Cushioning and arch support make long spells on your feet easier on your back.
The problem
Uneven, worn-down soles throw your stride off, and your hips pay for it on every walk.
How OrthoFit helps
A level, stable sole keeps your stride even from the first step to the last.
The problem
Narrow, worn-down soles give you a small, wobbly base to stand on.
How OrthoFit helps
A wide, flat sole and firm heel help you feel planted. As always, take care on wet ground.
Recommended fit:
Choose my sizeThe problem
After a joint replacement, you feel every jolt and wobble.
How OrthoFit helps
Softer landings and a steady base make each step more even. Follow your surgeon's advice.
The problem
Hard landings jar the lower back and can aggravate nerve pain down the leg.
How OrthoFit helps
Softer landings and a steadier stride mean less jarring through your back and legs.
The problem
Fiddly laces and tight heels are a battle when your fingers are stiff.
How OrthoFit helps
Elastic laces stay tied for good, and the heel tab gives you something easy to grip.
The problem
A stiff back or hips turn bending down to tie your shoes into a daily struggle.
How OrthoFit helps
Elastic laces stay tied for good. Pull the heel tab and step in, with barely any bending.
The problem
When you rely on a cane or walker, every step needs to feel steady.
How OrthoFit helps
A wide, flat sole and firm heel give you a stable base, and they slip on without fuss. Follow your therapist's advice.
Recommended fit:
Choose my sizeThe problem
Tying laces with one good hand is slow and frustrating.
How OrthoFit helps
No-tie laces and a pull-on heel tab make them easy to put on one-handed. Follow your therapist's advice.
The problem
Soft, flimsy shoes let your ankle roll on steps and uneven paths.
How OrthoFit helps
A firm heel and supported arch keep your ankle upright and steady.
The problem
Thin soles leave your calves and shins to absorb every step.
How OrthoFit helps
Shock-absorbing cushioning takes the pounding first, so your legs tire less.
The problem
Flat, worn shoes let your feet roll, so your knees, hips and back slump to make up for it.
How OrthoFit helps
Arch support and a level sole help your whole body line up, from the ground up.
The problem
More weight means more load on your feet, knees and back with every step.
How OrthoFit helps

Questions? Answered.
Straight answers to what men ask us most.
Will they really help my aching feet?
They're built to take the strain off your feet, knees and back, with a thick shock-absorbing sole, built-in arch support and a firm heel. Many customers say the end-of-day ache starts to ease by week two. They're comfort shoes, not a cure, so try them on your own walks. If they don't help within 30 days, you get your money back.
What if they don't fit?
Our Free Fit Guarantee has you covered. If the size or width isn't right, we swap it for free. Not sure what to order? Tap “Find my size” above and answer three quick questions.
Do they run true to size?
Yes, they run true to men's sizing, from US 6.5 to 14 (EU 39 to 48). Between sizes? Go one up. “Find my size” picks your size and width in three quick questions.
Which width should I choose?
Standard is for regular-width feet. Choose Wide if your feet are on the wide side, swell during the day, or you wear thick socks or your own orthotics. Between the two? Go Wide. Exchanges are free.
Will they look like “old man” orthopedic shoes?
No. The smart brogue styling looks right with jeans, chinos or trousers, and nobody will guess they're comfort shoes. Most people will just think you've got a nice pair of sneakers.
Are they easy to put on with a bad back or stiff hands?
Yes. The elastic laces stay tied for good, so there's nothing to tie or re-tie. Just pull the heel tab and step in, with barely any bending.
Will I slip on wet floors?
The non-slip rubber outsole grips wet pavements, tile and uneven ground, and the wide, flat sole and firm heel help you feel planted. As with any shoe, take care on ice and very wet surfaces.
Can I return them if I've worn them outside?
Yes. That's the point of our 30-Day Walk Test: wear them on real walks, outside. If they're not for you within 30 days, contact our care team for a full refund.
More questions
24 answers, by topic
Fit & sizing
Do they need breaking in?
No. They're comfortable straight out of the box, so you can wear them on your very first walk.
One foot is bigger than the other. What do I order?
Order the size for your larger foot. The elastic laces snug up on the smaller foot, so both feel secure.
Can I wear my own orthotics or insoles?
Yes. Choose the Wide fit for the extra room an orthotic needs, so your foot isn't squeezed.
My feet swell during the day. Will they still fit?
Yes. The stretch-knit upper gives as your feet swell, and the elastic laces adjust with them. If swelling is a regular thing, choose Wide.
I wear thick or compression socks. Which fit?
Choose Wide. It leaves room for thicker socks without going up a size.
I'm buying for my dad or husband. What size?
Check the size printed on the label inside the tongue of his most comfortable everyday shoes and order that. If it isn't right, the size or width exchange is free.
Comfort & health
Do I need a prescription?
No. You order them like any other shoe. They're comfort footwear, not a medical device, so if you have a medical condition your doctor's advice comes first.
Do they help with plantar fasciitis or heel pain?
A supported arch and a thick, cushioned heel take the strain off your heel, so those first steps out of bed are gentler. If your pain is severe, see your doctor or podiatrist too.
I have diabetes or numb feet. Are they suitable?
The soft knit upper and roomy fit help avoid pressure points and rubbing, and the Wide fit gives extra room. They're not a medical device, so check your feet daily and follow your doctor's or podiatrist's advice.
I've had a knee or hip replacement. Can I wear them?
Many men do. Softer landings and a steady base make each step more even, and they go on without bending down to tie laces. Always follow your surgeon's advice.
Will they help with my balance?
The wide, flat sole and firm heel give you a steady base, so you feel more sure-footed. No shoe can prevent every fall, so take care on stairs and wet ground.
I have bunions or hammertoes. Will they rub?
The roomy, rounded toe box and soft knit give your toes space, so nothing presses or rubs. Choose Wide for the most room.
Will my feet get hot or sweaty?
The perforated knit lets air in, so your feet stay cooler and drier. 86% of reviewers said their feet stayed cool and dry all day.
Can I wear them all day?
Yes. They're light enough to wear from breakfast to bedtime, with cushioning and support built for full days on your feet.
Everyday wear & care
Can I wear them to church, dinners or family events?
Yes. The smart brogue styling looks the part with chinos or trousers, so one pair takes you from the morning walk to dinner out.
What colours do they come in?
Blue, Black, Khaki, Gray. Every colour has the same cushioning, support and fit.
Are they waterproof?
No. The perforated knit is made to breathe, so they aren't waterproof. The non-slip rubber outsole grips wet pavements, tile and uneven ground. If they get wet, let them air dry away from direct heat.
Are they good for travel?
Yes. They slip on and off in seconds at airport security, and the stretch knit gives if your feet swell on a long flight.
How do I care for them?
Brush off dirt, spot clean with a soft cloth and mild soap, then air dry away from direct heat to keep the knit in shape. Spot cleaning is best, not the washing machine.
