Frank M. Verified BuyerComfortable and Easy to Use
These shoes are extremely comfortable and very easy to put on. The Double Zipper design works exactly as expected. I only wish Billy made more colors in the men's collection.

Jillian C. Verified BuyerPerfect for AFO Braces
This is the first pair of shoes that truly works with my fiancé's AFO braces. Because of the wide-opening zipper design, he can put his shoes on by himself. They are comfortable, supportive, stylish and have given him greater independence. We hope Billy introduces even more shoes and boots using this amazing adaptive zipper system.
Adaptive Men’s Sport Inclusion DZ1 Shoes by BILLY Footwear Buyer’s Guide
The Adaptive Men’s Sport Inclusion DZ1 Shoes by BILLY Footwear are designed to provide a stylish, functional solution for individuals seeking independent dressing and supportive footwear. Built with an intuitive entry system, these shoes combine modern athletic aesthetics with specialized adaptive features. This configuration allows wearers, including those with mobility challenges or those who use orthotics, to put on and take off their footwear with minimal effort.
Billy Footwear FlipTop Entry Technology
A central feature of these sneakers is the signature FlipTop design pioneered by Billy Footwear. The integrated zipper wraps completely around the toe box and along the side of the shoe, allowing the entire top layer to fold open. This wide-opening design eliminates the need to force the foot through a traditional collar, simplifying the dressing process for users with limited hand dexterity, stroke recovery needs, or reduced joint flexibility.
Zipper Sneakers with Full-Length Closure
Unlike standard shoes that rely solely on laces, these zipper sneakers feature a continuous zip closure system for maximum convenience. The smooth zip track enables quick fastening while maintaining a secure closure around the foot during movement. Adjustable laces remain on the front panel, allowing users to set their preferred tension and fit once, after which the zip system handles daily putting on and taking off of the shoes.
Adaptive Men’s Shoes for Orthotics and AFOs
Engineered to accommodate custom orthotics, these adaptive men’s shoes feature removable insoles and an extra-depth interior design. The wide opening and spacious footbed allow Ankle Foot Orthoses (AFOs), bracing systems, or custom arch supports to slip in easily without jamming or bunching up. The flexible upper materials stretch gently over modified feet or supportive inserts to ensure a comfortable fit throughout the day.
Accessible Footwear with Sport-Focused Traction
Designed for active daily use, this accessible footwear features a lightweight rubber outsole engineered for reliable grip across diverse surfaces. The tread pattern provides stability on smooth indoor floors, concrete sidewalks, and outdoor paths, reducing the risk of slips or missteps. The durable synthetic upper materials offer both flexibility for natural foot movement and long-lasting protection against everyday wear and tear.
Sport Inclusion DZ1 Modern Athletic Aesthetic
The Sport Inclusion DZ1 model combines practical accessibility with a contemporary, sporty look that fits seamlessly into everyday streetwear. Rather than appearing as a medical utility item, the modern colorways and clean lines give it the profile of a high-performance athletic shoe. This thoughtful approach ensures users can enjoy the functional benefits of specialized adaptive design without sacrificing personal style.
