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!

They look so good! it's hard to notice that they have been adapted.
