WalkOn Lateral – lightweight support
The orthosis fits in any shoe that provides support. You only need to make sure that the shoe has a reinforced heel. To put on the orthosis, position the WalkOn Lateral in the shoe and then slide your foot in.
The WalkOn Lateral is lightweight, slim and discreet under clothing. A removable calf pad makes it even more comfortable for you.
The WalkOn Lateral enhances your safety by supporting and lifting your foot during the swing phase while walking. This reduces the risk of catching the tip of your foot on carpet edges or uneven ground.
The special material of the WalkOn Lateral stores energy when you step down with the heel and releases it again during the foot’s rollover movement. This makes your gait more natural, whether you are walking slow or fast and no matter how much weight you are putting on the foot.
The WalkOn Lateral is especially robust. Its has proven its durability in tests and long-term functional testing. The adult sizes were tested for 2 million cycles, or steps.
You move naturally with the WalkOn Lateral during the day. For example, when you crouch down or climb stairs, you can put a natural load on the forefoot. The WalkOn Lateral is perfectly suited for many everyday activities.

Answers for you
Do I need a special shoe for the WalkOn Lateral?
No, but you should select a sturdy shoe with a reinforced heel. It is important that the orthosis fits firmly so that it moves as little as possible. We also recommend a heel height of 10 mm; alternatively this can be determined by your clinician. An additional pair of shoes should of course have the same heel height.
Is it possible to play sports with the WalkOn Lateral?
Speak to your clinician to get their advice on which activities are the most beneficial and how to make the best use of your orthosis. You should however avoid extreme and abrupt movements.
Can I drive a car with the WalkOn Lateral?
We can’t make any general statements regarding this. You must be able to safely control any vehicle for which you require a driver’s license and insurance or which is used in traffic. Your ability to drive a car with a WalkOn Lateral should be determined on an individual basis. You are required to observe national and state laws.
How do I put on the WalkOn Lateral?
We recommend that you place the orthosis into the shoe first and then insert your foot. Then you can simply fasten the hook-and-loop closures.
How do I care for the WalkOn Lateral?
The orthosis should be wiped regularly using water and a mild cleaning agent. We recommend washing the pad at least twice a week (machine washable at 104°F or 40 °C)
