DiabCare® Gina 26 Taupe Anatomical Shoe | K+ Last Diabetic & Wide Feet

Gina 26 Taupe DiabCare® – Orthopaedic Footwear for Diabetic Foot and Extra Wide Feet

The Gina 26 Taupe belongs to the DiabCare® D'Torres® line, designed specifically for diabetic feet and very sensitive feet. Handcrafted in Elche, Alicante, this model combines advanced podiatric protection with an urban and elegant design, allowing you to care for your feet without compromising on style.

D'Torres® K+ Last – Maximum Width for Feet with Special Needs

The Gina 26 Taupe is built on the D'Torres® K+ Last, the widest last in our entire collection. Designed for feet with severe deformities, oedema, advanced diabetic foot or feet requiring extra space to accommodate high-profile orthopaedic insoles. Thanks to this last, the footwear envelops the foot without exerting any pressure or compression, reducing the risk of friction, ulcers and skin lesions.

Removable DiabCare® Insole – Compatible with Custom Orthopaedic Insoles

One of the most notable features of this model is its removable DiabCare® insole. This high-absorption anatomical insole can be easily removed and replaced with custom orthopaedic insoles prescribed by your podiatrist or orthopaedic specialist, adapting the footwear to the exact biomechanical needs of your foot. An ideal solution for active orthopaedic treatments.

DiabCare® Technology – Total Protection for the Diabetic Foot

The DiabCare® D'Torres® line incorporates a set of technical features focused on the safety and wellbeing of the diabetic foot:

• No internal seams: elimination of any internal ridge that could cause friction, abrasions or wounds on sensitive skin.
• Breathable materials: natural nappa leather and adaptable lycra that regulate temperature and moisture, preventing maceration and infections.
• Adaptable lycra upper: moulds to the morphology of the foot without applying pressure, ideal for claw toes, pronounced bunions and fluctuating oedema.
• Textured leopard print: modern design combining functionality and aesthetics for everyday use.
• Double leather strap with velcro: adjustable fastening system that allows precise volume adjustment of the fit, making putting on and removing the footwear easier.

Foot Conditions for Which It Is Indicated

The Gina 26 Taupe DiabCare® has been conceived to address the main podiatric needs:

• Diabetic foot: comprehensive protection against friction and pressure ulcers.
• Extra wide feet: the K+ Last provides the necessary space to avoid lateral compression.
• Hallux valgus (bunions): the adaptable lycra and the width of the toe box eliminate pressure on the bony prominence.
• Claw toes or hammer toes: high, seam-free toe box that prevents dorsal friction.
• Foot or ankle oedema: the adjustable velcro fastening adapts to volume changes throughout the day.
• Plantar fasciitis: the removable DiabCare® insole allows the incorporation of specific plantar supports for the treatment of the plantar fascia.

Ultra-Lightweight Polyurethane Sole – Comfort with Every Step

The injected polyurethane high-density sole offers three key benefits for everyday use:

• Cushioning: absorbs the impact of each step, reducing the articular load on the ankle, knee and hip.
• Stabilisation: firm and structured base that promotes a safe and controlled gait.
• Non-slip: tread surface designed to ensure grip on smooth or wet surfaces, preventing falls.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use my custom orthopaedic insoles inside the Gina 26 Taupe?

Yes. The DiabCare® insole is removable, so you can easily take it out and insert the orthopaedic insoles prescribed by your podiatrist or physician. The D'Torres® K+ Last provides the internal volume necessary to comfortably accommodate high-profile insoles without compressing the foot.

Is this shoe suitable for diabetic foot with reduced sensitivity?

Absolutely. The Gina 26 Taupe DiabCare® has been designed specifically for the diabetic foot. It has no internal seams that could cause imperceptible abrasions on feet with peripheral neuropathy. Its breathable materials reduce maceration, and the K+ Last eliminates all lateral pressure, meeting the criteria for therapeutic diabetic footwear.

How do I adjust the footwear if my feet swell throughout the day?

The double leather strap with velcro system allows you to regulate the volume of the fit at any time of day quickly and precisely. This way, you can adjust the width of the shoe according to variations in oedema or swelling, always ensuring a secure fit free from compression.
