I have terrible foot drop on my left foot. Always tripping over that "invisible" whatever that pops up when I'm least expecting it.

I have found that I walk so much better without shoes on. Just socks. But that's when I'm at home and on a familiar floor. Seems like once I put shoes on it gets 10 times harder to walk. Even with my rollater. I've never had or tried an AFO.
