sport trainers for disable people

iza

Hi All, 
I am looking for recommendation where can I buy sport trainers with velcro closing.
My mum survive few strokes, her right hand is still paralysed. She can't tie her shoes any more. Please can you advise me about sport trainers  brands for disable people. Thanks you.

Hi @iza

Cosyfeet are probably the biggest UK supplier of shoes aimed specifically at disabled people:  https://www.cosyfeet.com/ however I can't readily see that they include a sports shoe with velcro closing in their range.  

In terms of general mass market women's velcro trainers I found searching Amazon.co.uk for "womens velcro trainers" gave several options: https://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_2_10?url=search-alias=shoes&field-keywords=womens+velcro+trainers&sprefix=womens+vel,shoes,148&crid=2JLUTRKUZR4I6

It might also be worth consider 'no tie laces'  http://amzn.eu/d/8vAdqDa

Spring laces https://www.uksmobility.co.uk/dressing-comfort/dressing-aids/spring-laces-pair

Elastic laces http://amzn.eu/d/9Y759qc 

Also here is some general information about footwear from DFG: https://www.dlf.org.uk/factsheets/footwear

Hope this helps

Best wishes
