Guest guest Posted January 24, 2006 Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 , I am sure that you will get TONS of responses, but in the links section of this group, the web addresses for both are listed. The Markell Shoe site is: http://www.markellshoe.com These shoes are boot-tyoe shoes that come in different designs, depending on what your doctor perscribes. They have straight last shoes, which look like they don't have a defined toe section, and reserve last (which my daughter used to wear), which look like the shoes are on the wrong feet. They are attached to a bar (often called a DBB or Denis Browne Bar) that keeps the feet seperated and at the correct degree/angle. The s (sometimes referred to as P/M) are a sandal-type shoes where the insides are molded to the shape of each child's foot. These shoes are also attached to a bar to hold the correction to reduce the chance of regression. The site for these is http://www.mdorthopaedics.com/ Some babies are able to toloerate the Markells without problems. However, some just have an awful time adjusting to them. The leather tends to be stiff and difficult to get into (this was our experience, but then again, others have had no problem). Hope this helps!
