Super easy to get on and are very comfortable when wearing. I can’t wait to see what other brands Arron collabs with
My daughter had sciatic nerve damage and can’t feel from the knee down. Due to the numbness in her right foot, she couldn’t wear 2 of the same shoe. She couldn’t tell if her toes were straight or curled under. But with Zipped Brand Shoes, my baby can wear 2 of the same shoes and they are Nike!!! This makes Mama so happy ❤️🥰. Thank you Zipped Brands for giving so many people hope!
these sneakers are great for 'unconventional ' feet like mine! They fit perfectly and maintain the original aesthetic of the shoe. The zippers are well done and not super visible! So refreshing to find shoes that I can wear right out of the box!
I absolutely love that they are a popular brand of shoes that I can also FINALLY partake in without compromising accessibility. They take me 10 seconds to put on independently- big emphasis on that point. I love the pull tab on the zipper. It makes it extremely easy for me to open and close them.
I am so happy with my shoes! They are 100% the easiest shoes to put on/take off that I've ever tried--while it typically takes me 2-3 minutes to put on each of my shoes, my carers are able to put my Zipped Air Forces on in like 10 seconds! They are comfortable and I am able to wear thick socks with them too, which is usually a struggle as the extra thickness would make it painful to get my foot in the right place. You can barely tell that they are adapted, which is my favourite part. I've been wearing them everywhere, with every outfit!!
One very small note: my particular feet contractures end up pushing my ankle joint inwards, which has sometimes made it the tiniest bit trickier to zip up my left shoe, as once the zipper reaches the last ~inch, it rubs against my foot and sometimes catches my sock/skin. This has been very manageable for me, by my carers just lifting/turning my foot slightly while zipping it up, but I think it'd be important to assess your own feet to ensure this wouldn't cause discomfort if your ankle joints stick out far one way or the other. I wonder if in the future, Zipped Brands might consider offering the option to have the zippers go on the opposite side of the shoes so that this wouldn't prevent anyone from finding the shoes useful and comfortable. I think this extra degree of customization would make the shoes work for every possible customer, because the concept of the shoes is FABULOUS and very well executed!
Thank you so much for your review and feedback! You have just inspired us to offer this as an option - we think having the option to choose which side you want the zipper placed is a fantastic idea! Our reasoning for having the zipper placed on the interior side of the foot was because we want the zipper to be as hidden as possible for aesthetic reasons, but we do love the idea of having the zipper placement be a customizable option. Thank you!

My son wears afo's and we've always wanted to get him mainstream shoes but Billy's was all we could find until now. Thank you
They look so good! it's hard to notice that they have been adapted.
