Tips for shoes for child with cerebral palsy that wears a splint?
Hi my little boy is nearly 3 and has cerebral palsy and he has to wear a splint on his right foot but I find it hard to get shoes that fit his splint especially boots or wellies. He currently wears crocs majority of the time as I have found they are the easiest for putting on with his splint. Just wondering if anyone has had same thing or know best ones for it?

You could try Billy Footwear or Friendly Shoe UK. Nike also have a trainer called Flyease that many people use with their splint or splints.
