ABSTRACT:
An adjustable orthopedic shoe for a foot splint is disclosed. The shoe is split into a toe portion and a heel portion to which a toe plate and a heel plate are respectively attached. The toe plate is adjustable relative to the heel plate about a longitudinal axis, a lateral axis, an oblique axis, or a combination of axes. After adjustment, the toe plate is locked in position relative to the heel plate by flanges depending from the plates. Preferably, the flanges are rounded and contact the ground and a pair of shoes are provided which are attached to an orthopedic foot splint. The foot splint maintains a desired angle between the feet of the user but otherwise allows virtually full freedom of movement of the feet.
