Hi, I had hip replacement surgery in October 2023, unfortunately I was left with nerve damage that inturn has caused Foot Drop. I had nerve conduction test done yesterday and was told that I will need to wear a brace for the rest of my days. I have 6 different types of braces none of which I find suitable to wear with ordinary shoes, I can only use them with trainers and being a lady I love to wear feminine shoes, any idea of light weight shoes that can be worn with every day foot wear. Thanks in advance for any suggestions

    Welcome to the community @onemumchris! Sorry to hear you've had some nerve damage. I'll pop your post over to our aids and adaptations boards where more members can find it. I'm afraid I don't have experience of this myself but I hope some of our members can offer their thoughts soon and I just wanted to say welcome :)

    Are you looking for foot braces that fit more feminine shoes, or feminine shoes that fit your braces better?  Or both, I suppose!
