Memo Orthopedic Footwear
Diagnostic and corrective footwear for children

Unique and rich design of medical footwear available together with a system of corrective insoles; the sole of the shoe consists of a system capable of diagnosing certain foot disorders that commonly appear amongst children and the shoe itself possesses a system of correcting those disorders.

MEMO's control area is the sole and the heel. Heels and soles are divided into six numbered zones. Your child has to wear MEMO orthopedic shoes for a number of days. After that period it is possible to observe the degree to which stripes located in all the abrasive zones have deteriorated. The level of deterioration in particular abrasive zones corresponds to different foot dysfunctions and is indicative of appropriate actions that need to be taken. There are six possible alternatives:
