At Tru-Mold Shoes, we carefully craft our shoes to serve the unique needs of our customers. We work with foot-care specialists to maximize health benefits. Without sacrificing style for comfort, all of our products are made out of premium materials. We also provide complete repair and refurbishing services of custom-molded
shoes made at our factory. With years of professional experience and expertise, we guarantee the proper fit, quality and craftsmanship of all our shoes for many years of comfort and enjoyment. The last is your first step to superior comfort. Tru-Mold Shoes fit your patients’ feet perfectly, because they are made from an exact replica of the foot. Every external anatomical detail is revealed on this three-dimensional plaster “last.”

Discover The Largest Selection of Custom Shoe Styles at Tru-Mold Shoes. From this we are able to make a total contact insert built to accommodate every contour and bio-mechanical feature for better balance and proper support. Not only are a patient’s precise foot length and width captured, but any profiles as well — arches, ankles, heels and toes plus bony prominences, pressure points, sensitive areas and other conditions unique to a patient’s foot. People with diabetic ulcers, deformed toes, collapsed arches, digital
amputations, bunions, calluses, charcot, hammertoes and other deformities will find our custom interior details unbelievably supportive. Our exclusive double orthotic system, featuring depressions in both the insert and shoe to reduce pressure on sensitive areas and improve mobility. Our Technology Is What Sets Us Apart

Our custom-molded shoe factory is situated in a state-of-the-art facility and features CAD/CAM technology, the finest shoemaking equipment, and talented craftsmen from around the world. Using the most up to date scanners, design software, and machinery, every shoe is meticulously customized for every patient to assure maximized comfort and fit. We are committed to making the best custom-molded shoes and braces, and delivering professional, thorough, and courteous service. Vorum™ 3D Shoe Last Scanner

The Vorum™ Scanner is used to capture a 3D scan of the cast. It uses a safe, high quality blue light projector and single camera. Three-dimensional patient shapes are displayed on a computer screen in real time. The software integrates the scan, weight-bearing imprint information and clinical requirements of the footwear into a computerized design process. Production-ready scans for all footwear and orthotic devices can be obtained in less than a minute. The detailed 3D patient shape can be electronically stored indefinitely and referred to for future orders. Canfit™ 3D CAD Prosthetic And Orthotic Design Software

The Canfit™ CAD Prosthetic Orthotic Design Software consisting of intuitive tools allows the technician to make modifications customized for the patient. Its patent pending features give more precise control over the anatomical correctness of the cast to achieve a better fit. Some features include superimposing patient x-rays, photos, or reference lines to guide your work, ability to restart a scan from anywhere, move and rotate images, and add clinical landmark information. Using these measurements, a positive last is created for production purposes. Shoemaster™ Pattern Engineering Software

Using the data from the previous CAD system, the Shoemaster™ Pattern Engineering Software designs shoe materials. This software is able to create all pattern constructions with precision and ease using extensive size and fit grading features, style transfer
functions for redesigning existing styles, and smart technology that automatically grades pieces that share common lines. It accurately emulates complex manual processes with a level of accuracy that is only possible with a computer based system. The final designs are then sent to a cutter to create components of the shoe. ATOM™ FlashCut Technology

The Atom™ FlashCut Speedy Carver uses the data from the pattern engineering design software to cut out material. Equipped with an internationally patented “pinch and grab” feeding system and two cutting heads, the Atom™ FlashCut Speedy Carver assures maximum material feeding even for multiple layers and large-scale production. The perfect parallelism between knife and working surface and advanced laser cutting technology ensures the highest level of accuracy. Its picking assistance feature allows the gathering of parts by size and color and its optimized nesting system has a user-friendly interface that reduces process times while maximizing material yield. These textile pieces are then manually put together by a technician to finally create the shoe. Custom-Molded Braces

Brace yourself for the finest quality and affordable custom-molded brace to be manufactured using precise, proprietary state-of-the-art CAD CAM technology. Niagara Brace – a Tru-Mold Shoes Company – offers three levels of frame support, five color options and your choice of closure method. Niagara Brace products are always a perfect fit. TM Pressure Relief System

The Advanced CROW will be recessed on the insert and removable base material to reduce the plantar pressure on ulcerations, bone protrusions and other problem areas. In addition, the base material will have a Poron plug inserted at these sites and if your patient requires additional pressure relief, simply remove the plug. V Factor Plate

This separate device is not lasted into the Advanced CROW at the time of manufacture. It is intended to provide auxiliary varus/valgus correction if your patient’s condition changes at a later date. To use the V Factor Plate, just lift out the insert and the removable base material, secure the V Factor Plate with double-sided tape to the desired location on the bottom of the boot and place the base material and insert back into the Advanced CROW. We Stand By Our Shoes

We continue our 60 year commitment to making the best custom-molded shoes and delivering the professional, thorough and courteous service you’ve come to expect from us. We’ll always be honored to have you as a customer. Contact:
