We all know the right pair of walking shoes is the key to fending off sore, achey feet—but if you suffer from neuropathy, finding a comfy, supportive pair is especially crucial. The best shoes for neuropathy can help you manage symptoms like numbness and tingling, keeping your feet comfortable (and preventing pain!) no matter how long you’re standing or walking.
