Although I am very eager to expand
the website to include information for people who are allergic to
substances other than PTBP-FR and chrome, having myself already
emailed well over 200 shoe manufacturers, I am not very keen to
repeat the process; I am not sure many shoe manufacturers would
appreciate hearing from me again - particularly regarding allergies
that I do not myself possess. So, if you are allergic to a
substance other than PTBP-FR and chrome and are willing to send out
a few emails, please do email me and I can
provide you with advice regarding how to go about it and where to
start. With the information you gather, I can expand the
website to include more pages devoted to other
allergies.
In the meantime, I thought I would provide a
list of shoe manufacturers who claim to make hypoallergenic shoes.
Before buying shoes from any of these
companies, I would definitely recommend emailing them to ask whether
their shoes are free from the substance to which you are
allergic.
Please also note that you may wish to try the
following product: Microair®
Barrier Socks by Alpretec. These are worn under regular
socks and prevent harmful substances from coming into contact with
the skin on your feet. These socks are sold in Europe,
Australia and Canada. For a list of distributors, please visit
