One of the most complex tasks of our body is to maintain an upright position and balance when walking. Often, however, the body adapts to asymmetries and issues to find temporary relief, creating overloads on muscles and tendons. Consequently, the problem is shifted but not corrected, and it may worsen, particularly for individuals already affected by diabetes and rheumatic deformities. This problem of overloading becomes particularly dangerous for people with diabetes and rheumatism, which is why it is crucial to restore the right balance in time.
Fito has developed a solution with the Rebalance®system; this sole was designed by Fito to help people reduce metatarsal pain and re-ulceration caused by overload due to incorrect posture. The sole consists of a sandwich structure that encloses a rigid shank between two layers of EVA, allowing the wearer to guide their step and distribute weight from the forefoot evenly without stressing the metatarsals or specific areas, while maintaining comfort.
Rebalance® ensures that the weight is distributed across the broad surface of the sole, rather than on a single point. This solution is applied both in the soles of footwear designed for people with diabetes, who require a specific product to prevent the recurrence of ulcers due to overload, and in the soles of post-operative footwear for individuals who have undergone surgery and therefore need proper posture to ensure the successful outcome of the operation.
