Shoe Modification

A modified shoe: what is it?​

​Modified shoes are regular shoes that have been expertly modified to meet the unique requirements of a person's feet and take into account their foot condition. One or more adjustments may be included in modified shoes. To the untrained eye, some modified shoes frequently resemble standard footwear since many adjustments are concealed inside or underneath the shoe.
