Shuffle Plate/Toe Slidder
Description
Addition of a smooth low friction, non- treaded material to the forefoot of the shoe.
Examples of Use
Useful with an inability to fully lift the forefoot or a shuffle gait – especially in carpeted environments; also used for dancers who require the comfort of a supportive shoe minus the tread.
