The DARCO MedSurg shoe provides the foot with solid protection as it features a square toe design which reinforces protection for the toes. It has a metashank designed sole that can provide additional support to the metatarsal area when walking, and it can also accommodate bulky bandages very easily. The DARCO Medsurg has a velcro closure across the front which can eliminate any additional pressure caused by the more traditional D ring enclosures which irritate the foot area. It provides superior traction with its very aggressive treat at the midfoot, and the reduced friction tread at the toe and heel allows toe dragging and heel scuffing of patients.
