Abstract: Complications of Foot’s diabetics such as foot pain, skin changes, callus, foot deformity, foot ulcer, amputation are common. Diabetic shoes play an important role in protecting the feet from injury. The article was based on the opinions of 412 female diabetic patients, 110 male diabetic patients and 20 doctors at medical centers on shoe evaluation criteria such as structural features, materials, and comfort. From that result, the requirements for diabetic shoes were proposed in Vietnam. This requirement is an important basis for the design and selection of suitable materials for diabetics.
