Description
The HEEL PROTECT Universal Heel Offloading Shoe, Blue supports reliable heel pressure relief, making it a practical aid for pressure ulcer prevention and treatment. It is designed for clinics, care facilities and home care when vulnerable or already affected heels need to be safely positioned. Thanks to its comfortable materials and thoughtfully designed fastening, the shoe is also suitable for extended wear—without unnecessary sweating or slipping.
As a heel offloading shoe, the HEEL PROTECT Universal Heel Offloading Shoe, Blue is designed to reduce pressure peaks at the heel and relieve the skin. The breathable Mesh³ fabric supports climate regulation, while GELTOUCH technology with a cooling effect ensures greater comfort—especially for heat-sensitive skin. The open-cell, breathable Geltouch Foam combined with HR Foam provides optimized pressure relief and supports positioning in typical care situations, such as prolonged bed rest or limited mobility.
For safe everyday use, the HEEL PROTECT Universal Heel Offloading Shoe, Blue features a soft fastening and a rotation stop that can help minimize unwanted twisting. A hook-and-loop fastener also helps prevent equinus deformity by stabilizing the position of the foot. The system also performs well in demanding hygiene processes: the bi-elastic cover is designed to minimize shear forces, is washable up to 95°C, suitable for tumble drying and autoclavable. This makes the shoe suitable for use in professional care settings, including diabetic foot therapy (always follow the instructions for use).
