Women's Shoes for Arthritis

(28.3k)

Arthritis can make every step feel like a challenge. With about 1 in 6 people over 50 experiencing osteoarthritis in their feet and 90% of rheumatoid arthritis patients developing symptoms in their feet or ankles, finding the right shoes is crucial.

If you’re searching for the best women's shoes for arthritis or the best women’s shoes for rheumatoid arthritis, you’re in the right place.

At KURU, we’re dedicated to creating shoes for women with arthritis that provide the relief, support, and comfort you deserve. Our patented KURUSOLE technology cups your heels rather than squashing them, preserving your heel’s natural, rounded shape with each step.

Paired with the shock-absorbing KURUCLOUD EVA foam and dual-density arch support in our ULTIMATE INSOLES, KURU shoes deliver unbeatable comfort and relief.

Features and Benefits of Arthritis Shoes for Women


The right shoes can make a world of difference in how you feel and move. The best women's shoes for arthritis in feet are designed to reduce pain, enhance mobility, and promote healthier feet. Here’s what to look for:

  • Cushioned Insoles. Absorb shock and reduce joint stress to ease pain in the feet, ankles, and knees.
  • Arch Support. Distributes weight evenly to minimize pressure on painful joints.
  • Roomy Toe Box. Allows toes to spread naturally and accommodates swelling for lasting comfort.
  • Adjustable Straps and Laces. Provide a customized fit for better support, especially helpful if your feet swell throughout the day.
  • Lightweight, Breathable Materials. Reduce strain on joints and keep feet cool and dry.
  • Structured Soles. Provide the stability and support arthritic joints need—while allowing just enough flex to promote natural movement and help reduce stiffness.

Choosing the right shoes for arthritic feet means choosing better comfort, mobility, and quality of life. With KURU shoes, you can feel supported and ready for whatever the day brings.

I love my KURUs. I got them for a trip but am wearing them as slippers until then. I have arthritis in one foot and heal pain and when I wear the shoes, no pain."

Great shoes

I bought me a pair of these last week got them today I have arthritis in my knees, knee pain and back pain I just recently tore my meniscus in my leg and I was pain free walking in this shoe. I ordering a pair for my 93 year old mom with knee pain, arthritis , and lower back pain. We cannot wait for her shoes."

A Winner!

Arthritis, stress fractures, tendon issues…My feet have been my nemesis for years. But I have finally found a winner with this shoe. I can actually walk without pain. This is my first pair of KURUs, but it will not be my last!"

What a great shoe

Bought these as I have terrible feet and stand for a few hours a day at work. Arthritis, flat feet, bunions, plantar fasciitis. These shoes make my feet feel great!!!! I love them!!!! I have a wide foot and these work great for me."

Love these shoes!

I bought my first pair of KURUs and the fit is perfect! I have bone spurs and terrible arthritis in my feet, so walking is very painful for me. These shoes are a game changer, I can walk pain free! Will be buying another pair again soon."
