Duna OW04 Render – X006 Orthotic 9

Rear-Opening Shoe for AFO Use

The Duna OW04 Render Orthotic 9 is an ankle-height orthopaedic sports shoe designed to support children who wear Ankle-Foot Orthoses (AFOs). Featuring a rear-opening construction with a BOA® fastening system, this shoe allows easier donning while maintaining secure fit, alignment, and stability during everyday walking. Constructed with a lightweight multi-density EVA sole and a flat orthotic-ready footbed, the OW04 Render is intended for children who require structured footwear to be worn in conjunction with bilateral AFOs, supporting controlled gait and functional mobility.

Support Features

• Mid ankle support zone to provide structured foot containment when worn with AFOs

• Intermediate heel and ankle support with extended stiffeners to assist rearfoot alignment and AFO control

• Midrange sole flexibility to balance stability with functional movement during gait

• Lightweight construction to help reduce fatigue during orthosis-assisted walking

• Grain leather upper for durability, structure, and everyday wear

• Multi-density EVA sole to support stable heel contact and forward progression

• BOA® fastening system with rear opening for quick, secure, and easily adjustable closure

• Flat innersole construction suitable for AFO footplates and orthotic integration

• Adjustable sole design allowing modification to support individual postural and gait needs

Ideal For Children With

• Bilateral AFO use requiring a rear-opening shoe

• Neurological or developmental conditions affecting motor control

• Reduced rearfoot stability requiring structured heel containment

• Gait patterns requiring guided progression and controlled roll-through

• Difficulty donning standard closed footwear over orthoses

Clinical Insight

The rear-opening design allows the foot and AFO to be positioned together before fastening, supporting consistent alignment and reducing strain during donning. Extended heel stiffeners assist with rearfoot containment, while the structured EVA sole supports stable stance and controlled progression through the gait cycle when used with an AFO.
