Gartner’s Functional Footwear, the custom shoe and rigid ankle gauntlet specialists, has proudly served customers since 1922. Developing three generations and over 80 years of skilled manufacturers. Our dedicated craftsmen are experts at making the perfect fit. After all, cosmetic perfection is worth nothing without the perfect fit. We do not use existing toe caps or “quick” fixes as we believe this will only compromise the integrity of your patient outcome. On all custom shoe, custom AFO’s and plain shoe modifications, we are committed to providing the highest quality product, ensuring accuracy AND style for all types of special attention needs.

We strive to provide our customers with the best possible service. Gartner’s Functional Footwear understands that when you need custom-made products, you expect function, style, quality, and most important, timeliness! 

When shopping for quality custom footwear and bracing needs, your selection should not be determined by the lowest price, but rather, by the highest value. At Functional Footwear, we will provide you with high quality products while still maintaining very competitive prices.

By maintaining a certified Orthotist and Pedorthist on staff Functional Footwear provides the highest level of clinical expertise available to help you with all your specific needs.  This is critically important as we believe that when manufacturing items like the Leather/Co-Polymer Brace (LCB), or the custom shoe hybrid, there is no room for substandard clinical expertise.
