Shoes modeled by famous palliative care researcher KS |
Now I love California, but New Yorkers do have a few things on the rest of the country - they walk everywhere, have great fashion sense, and are first to try the latest cool gadgets.
And perhaps there's a lesson here somewhere here about mobility and older adults.
Take shoes.
Most of the shoes I've seen for older adults are utilitarian and plain. What if shoes for older adults were really fashionable - like those modeled by famous palliative care researcher K.S. in the photograph above? Ooh la la! Would older adults feel better about walking?

Second Anon - granted the shoes as shown are not practical enough for many older adults. But we can do better than the equipment that makes a person look like an "ostrich" (thanks for that image first Anon).
