Does your current footwear give you the support you need? As a nurse, you spend most of the day (or night) on your feet! You should always care for your feet by wearing supportive shoes. 

The Infectious Clothing Company offers the most extensive range of medical scrubs and medical uniforms. We also sell all the nursing accessories and apparel you need, including the best range of footwear. 

We know there is no time for slowing down in this fast-paced environment. Many nurses are known to suffer from foot and leg problems (and besides lack of sleep!), one of the most common causes of their problems is the shoes they wear.

Wearing the wrong shoes can cause problems such as: 

  1. Blisters: Shoes that are too small or too large can cause rubbing and friction on the skin, leading to blisters and other types of irritation.

  2. Foot pain: Shoes that are not the correct size or shape for your foot can cause discomfort and pain, especially if you wear them for extended periods of time.

  3. Balance issues: Ill-fitting shoes can throw off your balance, making it more difficult to walk or run and increasing your risk of falls and injuries.

  4. Damage to the feet: Shoes that are too tight or too loose can cause damage to the feet over time, including deformities, callouses, and other issues.

Wearing footwear that fits you properly and provides the proper support is vital! It would help if you had shoes that would go the distance, especially on those long overnights. 

We've chosen a selection of shoes for men and women that your feet will thank you for later. 

 ***All women's shoes range from size 6 - 11 ***
