Product Information

There are a number of professionals who look at your gait, the health and care of your feet and your footwear. You should have a full assessment, perhaps first by a physiotherapist or podiatrist. You may also see a biomechanic or an orthotist. A zip aid is usually a piece of cord or fine chain with a hook on one end and a tab at the other to assist with doing up zips. Large rings or tape can also be attached to a zip tab to help make gripping easier. Consider these if you have zips on boots. Some people have footwear prescribed for them on the National Health Service (NHS). People needing such footwear must be referred by their general practitioner and must have a medical reason for the prescription. People who have been given a prescription will be provided with either ready made or made-to-measure footwear. If you have swollen feet, you may require special footwear with extra depth and possibly width. Look for footwear that has a heel with a broad base, an adjustable fastening such as laces or hook and loop Velcro, a supportive upper and slip resistant sole. Avoid higher heels and loose slippers. Surgical/orthopaedic firms produce ready made shoes with extra depth which have a variety of insoles to cope with the fluctuations of swelling.

People with poor grip or shoulder function may find pulling the tights up over the hip difficult. Pulling up with hands crossed over the body reduces the amount of shoulder movement required. Fit: These tights fit well but I didn’t find them particularly flattering and felt that they showed all my lumps and bumps. They are easy to pull on and off, but I did find that they needed pulling up frequently while I was wearing them. 3.5 stars Family Fundprovides grants for families raising disabled or seriously ill children and young people aged 0-18. They provide grants for a wide range of items, including clothing.Fit: Smart and practical riding tights that fit well but the cut doesn’t suit me. They are more of a low-rise and quite short from waist to crotch, which is a shame as they fit me nicely in the leg. 4 stars There is usually a V shaped notch and the heel of the boot is placed into the remover while you ease your foot out of the boot. Sole - this should provide cushioning and protection for comfortable walking and enough grip to prevent slipping

Heel collar - this should pass under the ankle, padding may help reduce the pressure on your ankle and reduce the chance of blisters developing

There is a range of equipment available to assist with a variety of dressing tasks. We recommend that you seek advice from an occupational therapist before buying equipment, or try them out at your local Equipment Demonstration or Independent Living Centre. Fit: These leggings are a good fit and the material has a good amount of stretch to it. The high-waist design is comfortable and the leg length is good too. 4 stars Wide waist: Many riding tights have an extra wide waistband, which is essential if you refuse to comprise on comfort. Long term swelling of the feet often accompanies conditions such as heart disease, or when people have less mobility and are seated for long periods. It can also accompany obesity. Any swelling often worsens towards the end of the day.

Riding tights (also known as riding leggings)are experiencing more and more popularity, especially among female riders. In the past, riding tights were only seen on the very daring, super slim and often quite young female riders, but nowadays more and more ladies dare to try this relatively young style of riding breeches, with growing enthusiasm. Very well made tights with flat body seams and a cotton gusset. Some reinforcement either side of the centableal body seam, this together with the finger band below the waistband should help with durability.Any shoe that needs adapting should be of reasonable quality and well made. To make some adaptations the shoe will have to be taken to pieces and re-made - a poorly constructed shoe may not be able to withstand this. Speak to your GP initially, who will be able to refer you to the most appropriate service if necessary, or you can access these services privately.
