Hatchbacks Footwear
Hatchback Shoes
Introducing Hatchbacks Elites, a new line of shoes designed specifically to address the needs of children wearing AFO’s, DAFO’s, and orthotics.
Every Hatchbacks shoe incorporates a patented Rear-Entry hinge system called “Easy Fit” that’s as simple as 1,2,3. The “Easy Fit” system is designed to facilitate ease of entry and egress from the shoe by pivoting open at the hinge. The shoe remains firmly closed by a Velcro fastener that is also very easy to use. To make an Elite shoe, we took our “Easy Fit” system and created a custom last molded around a brace. This new last provides extra width around the toe box, extra girth around the ankle, and more room around the heel. This means that most children will be able to wear Hatchbacks Elites that are the same size as their foot.
