I have had flat foot reconstructive surgery on both of my feet. They would ache terribly when I spent long amounts of time on them. The worst pain was experienced when I would stand for periods of time. I have been unable to control the pain with expensive orthotics.
I saw a waitress wearing Z-CoiL shoes while on vacation. I was immediately interested when she told me she could be on her feet for long periods without pain. A Z-CoiL dealer was just down the road. My family was going to a theme park the next day and I figured I would have to rent a power cart because of the pain. I purchased Z-Walkers and got used to them on my way back to the car. I wore them all day at the theme park the next day with no aches! What a blessing!
I just saw my podiatrist and told him about my Z-CoiL shoes. I told him he needed to sell these! I have found a local dealer and will contact them to buy a dress pair. Thanks for your dedication!

Four years ago I was spending 20 minutes a day putting on my shoes. I wore orthotics with two pair of socks and lace-up braces with cheap shoes that never lasted. I then tried Z-CoiL® shoes and have not bought anything else since. I love them so much that I brought home a pair for my wife to try. She also loved them and we thought they would be good for our Downs Syndrome son, since he suffered from the same flat feet that I had. The bad thing is that he loved them so much, he would not give them back. He even took them to bed with him. After he fell asleep we snuck into his room to get the shoes. The next morning a very upset boy came into our room asking for his Z-shoes. Even though we tried to explain that we had to take those back because we were just trying them out, he wanted those shoes. We purchased him a pair the next day, and now Z-CoiL shoes are the only shoes Ricky ever wears. He even wears them when he races in Special Olympics. As a matter of fact, Ricky is the only handicapped child to win a gold medal in the 100-meter and the 50-meter spring wearing Z-CoiL shoes. Both my son and I would not be able to function without our Z-CoiL shoes.

I'm a healthcare professional who travels. I have also had foot problems forever. I've got flat feet and Morton’s syndrome. Years ago I had major problems, and the doctors were wanting me to have surgery to have the misalignment corrected (they wanted to break my feet and reset the bones!). They warned me that if I didn’t have the surgery, one day I would really regret it. Well, stubborn as I am, I thought there is no way I'm letting them do this. I've always been diligent about wearing shoes with good support and up until recently this worked okay for me. I still had pain/swelling from time to time, but dealt with it as the problems surfaced.
The hospital where I'm currently contracted is very large and very busy. I'm on my feet constantly. One busy weekend, my feet started making this horrible crunching noise with each step and I was in complete agony and downing mass quantities of ibuprofen just to be able to complete that shift. Yes, the problems of my very active youth were resurfacing. I was developing metatarsal fractures in both feet and tearing some ligaments as well.
Desperate, 400 miles from home and barely able to walk, I called my doctor and told him what was going on. He INSISTED that I find a shoe store that sells Z-CoiL® shoes and buy them immediately. He also told me as soon as I could to come in and see him for some bone scans, etc.
These shoes have literally saved my feet! I went out and purchased them, lucky that there is a dealer here where I'm at (Springshod Shoes in Dayton, OH) and wore them out of the store . . . and directly to work. They say that some people don’t get complete relief from these shoes for a few days or weeks, but my pain relief was immediate. I went to work, ran around all night long and needed NO ibuprofen. My feet did not swell even a tiny bit, and in the morning when my 12-hour shift was over, had ZERO pain.
Okay, so I'm hard-headed. A couple of days later I needed to go to the store, so I wore my much-loved running shoes. Within minutes my feet were in extreme pain! After a few nights off I was scheduled to work five 12-hour shifts in a row. Thanks to these wonderful shoes, I did just that. I was absolutely free from pain, swelling, or any discomfort at all. I haven't thrown out my other shoes YET, but I sure can't wear them. And I'm sure that before my contract here ends, I WILL be buying several more pairs.
Buying these shoes was like buying a brand new pair of feet. I cannot express just how much these shoes have done for me. Yes, they are expensive, but without them I would not be able to work and as a single mother, I have to work. Thank you.

My hubby, Dan, and I were at the main Z-CoiL® store on 4th Street in Albuquerque just a week ago. We each bought a pair of 7” work boots with enclosed coils, as we have a small ranchette in the East Mountains. Between my husband and I, we have endured five back surgeries—my husband three, and me two. We have taken many meds and have used walkers, but canes mostly, since then.
The day we bought these “angelic” shoes was the day I saw my husband stand as tall as I remembered him as a young (and, by the way, very handsome) man. WOW! I also felt no pain, and since then have worn them all of the time. I don’t care if they look like combat boots. I walk our Biggg Dog with them on, on the uneven terrain of our land, and on the gravel road in front of our home, to the doctor’s office, to the store, etc.
I tell everyone I see using a cane or limping about these wonderful shoes. Z-CoiL® shoes are the best thing that has happened in my life and my husband’s in a long time. We have even gone on the Internet and told friends around the country about them and even looked on the website for the stores where they can purchase these “wonder” shoes.
Thank you, Z-CoiL. It was also an honor to meet the inventor of the shoes, Mr. Gallegos, while we were at the store. What a gentleman.
