Seeing the big picture –<br />

for the sake of healthy feet<br />

LucRo shoes are proven to hinder the recurrence of foot wounds with their<br />

protective function. The LucRo shoe is a very important element of foot therapy.<br />

Other factors also influence the occurrence of foot wounds. Diabetes<br />

sufferers have to pay very close attention to their feet for the whole of their<br />

lives. This includes daily foot inspection, regular professional foot care and<br />

wearing special socks – and also shoe care.<br />

LucRo Special Shoes for People with Diabetes<br />

You will find LucRo socks and LucRo<br />

care products on pages 62 and 63 of<br />

this catalogue<br />

Only a fully functional shoe can<br />

provide optimum protection<br />

No item of clothing is subject to as<br />

much strain as a favourite pair of<br />

shoes. So with a little care and gentle<br />

handling, you can further extend<br />

the lifetime of your shoes as well as<br />

the pleasure of wearing them. The<br />

following tips are intended to help<br />

you derive pleasure from our LucRo<br />

shoes for a long time to come.<br />

Allow the shoe to rest<br />

Feet sweat every day and the material<br />

absorbs this fluid. The strain on<br />

the shoe is increased when you walk.<br />

So if possible, change your shoes after<br />

wearing them once and let them<br />

rest for 24 hours! This will increase<br />

their lifetime significantly.<br />

Regularly replace footbeds<br />

Footbeds adapt perfectly to the<br />

foot. However, due to the high level<br />

of pressure applied, they no longer<br />

offer a secure hold after a while and<br />

cease to provide sufficient support.<br />

We therefore recommend replacing<br />

footbeds on a regular basis.<br />

Shoes don’t like heat<br />

Wet or moist shoes should never<br />

be placed near a powerful source<br />

of heat such as a radiator. Give the<br />

shoes time to dry slowly at room<br />

temperature. In order to prevent<br />

them from drying out, it is important<br />

to ensure the leather is regularly<br />

provided with nutrients. High-quality<br />

shoe polish or a nubuk pen should<br />

be used for this purpose.<br />

Leather is a natural product<br />

Can you see individual scratches or<br />

scarred insect bites on the leather?<br />

Don‘t worry – these are clear evidence<br />

of its natural origins and are<br />

not the result of processing errors.<br />

Impregnation provides protection<br />

Spray the upper material of your<br />

shoes with moisture protection<br />

before you wear them for the first<br />

time. This ensures they are protected<br />

from the wet. Repeat this procedure<br />

at regular intervals.<br />
