Diabetic Footwear
Does Buck and Buck carry diabetic footwear?
(Go to our Home Page). Yes, Buck and Buck does carry diabetic footwear in our product line for seniors.
Often the elderly with diabetes have problems with their circulation due
to the damage done to nerve fibers and blood vessels over the years of
having the disease. Buck and Buck is sensitive to the dressing needs of
these seniors and we have designed some diabetic footwear to decrease
constriction and provide warmth to the feet.
Our diabetic footwear consists of the "snugglers" for men and for
women. This adaptive clothing item is for the non-ambulatory senior who
is confined to a wheelchair or bed. The "snugglers" promote
circulation by keeping the legs and feet warm and the design also helps
to prevent skin tears and pressure points through the use of soft, plush
shearling.
We also feature the popular Care Socks® that are wonderful items of
diabetic footwear because of the soft, non-binding material of the sock
and their ability to stretch providing comfort and decreased pressure
for feet and legs that swell.
Many of our slipper designs for women and men such as our VELCRO Brand Closure
booties are wonderful for the senior with diabetes because of the
warmth provided to the feet which then promotes circulation.
