Thank you! I actually did check the web site but the shoe

descriptions did not state whether or not they have a removeablace

insole. I appreciate your consideration and effort though. What

are SAS shoes?

Actually, I now can wear most shoes as long as they don't have

a heel (and sandals must have a back-strap), but I am beginning to

feel like it would be much better for me to wear my orthotics as much

as I can as I am concerned about the effects of not doing so. The

orthotics are easier to accomadate than the AFO's - the only tricky

part is that a shoe must be deep.

Thanks again Oh, by the way, my eye is mostly recovered

and I'm seeing 20/30 now (I'm not sure if you recall, I wrote in a

bit panicked in late April/ early May after implant surgery).

I don't have any personal experience with AFOs or orthodics. My

mother does and she wears SAS shoes. Anyway maybe this will be of

some help to you.

Marti,

My name is and I live in Del Rio, Texas. Regarding your e-mail about

SAS shoes, It is indeed a company headquartered in San as SAS stands

for San Shoes. They are extremely comfortable shoes, they are good

leather and some are actually stylish, though they are most noted for

comfort and durability rather than looks. I do not know if they would

accomodate orthotics though, have never had to use them in that way. They

are a bit expensive, haven't bought a pair in about 5 or 6 years and the

regular loafers at that time were $45 per pair. There is a SAS Factory here

in Del Rio and if you are unable to obtain any information thru the toll

free number, I would be happy to go to our factory, which also has an outlet

store, and see if I can get a brochure or something for you.

Just FYI it is San Shoe, Inc; Blvd.;Del Rio, TX 78840

Ph#830-768-7200.

Best of Luck
