My husband has RSD in his leg and foot which has caused constant swelling. Because of this, he does not fit ANY footwear we have found. Does anyone know where we could order footwear that would fit?

I don't know what kind of shoe your husband is looking for, but I Highly suggest New Balance! Buy a model that's 'Made in USA'! They're worth the extra $. I'm wearing 993's and I paid about $140 US for them. Besides being such well made sneakers, or shoes, they also come in Widths, and I of course had to get a wider size.
I've been in NB since 83, when I got rsd.

Try to find a local independent store, I was able to find a New Balance store not too far away.
You can also go to www.newbalance.com

Also, I use the 'Spenco' gel sole inserts. They help a lot.

I also have a pair of Merrill hiking shoes that are Very comfortable.

www.zappos.com is a good online store for shopping as well!

Best wishes!

I either wear New Balance shoes or Crocs (Mammoth) the ones with a furry lining. www.crocs.com

Mostly I wear my Crocs because they are so lightweight. My doc is not in favor so much of them but understands why I wear them. (My toes curl under and my feet swell)

I have went from wearing a size 5 1/2 to wearing a size 8.

I wish you the best... I understand the pain of RSD and the frustration of finding shoes that don't kill the feet.

The only shoes I find comfortable are my berkenstocks. I wear the Arizonas all year round even though they're sandals. When I absolutely must wear boots becaause of snow, I use the fluffly ones with no seams or zippers, a size too big.

I found the best socks in the world at Walgreens. They are super soft terry with no seams and are not tight at the top or anywhere else but they stay up anywhere. I ddon't know the brand but I've only found them at Walgreens and once at Walmart. They are worth looking for a Walgreens to get them.

Sorry for my typos. My shoulders hurt by this time of day. I have full body RSD - my shoulders, neck, back, hip, knees, ankles, feet legs.

When my RSD started I didn't like anything touching my ankle so I had to cut my running shoes. Now that it is also on top of my foot and going up my leg I wear crocs a size bigger then usual. But I still find that if I try and walk normal it still touchs so I drag my foot alot of the time and have recently gone to a roll a bout. Good luck!

Thanks everyone! His foot is too swollen for any type of running shoe and crocs are not large enough either. A lady made a bootie for him before so I could ask her to make another...was just hoping someone knew where to get a shoe to fit a foot that is 17 inches in diameter. Take care.
