Comfort for your Feet - Our Shear Comfort footwear products keep the feet warm and protected in a soft bed of wool, and can be worn in bed, around the home or when travelling or staying away.
Shear Comfort footwear is designed to relieve pressure by encasing the foot with wool on all sides, an effect that is enhanced by placing all seams on the outside, so the wool is all your feet can feel. Most of the Shear Comfort footwear range wraps around the foot using Velcro fastenings, so the boots can be easily put on and removed without creating friction against the skin.
Sheepskin footwear is particularly suited to helping people at risk of developing foot ulcers as a result of diabetes or pressure. People who suffer from cold feet or poor circulation also benefit from the insulating quality of medical sheepskin footwear, which promotes blood circulation and helps to keep the feet warm. People with delicate skin on their feet and legs can also benefit from the protective cushioning of Shear Comfort footwear to protect the area from exterior knocks and scrapes.
