What kind of shoes i should use for osteoarthritis in my knee?

Comfortable: Since pain is often a big part of handling osteoarthirits, i would start with comfortable shoes, with good insoles. If you're having trouble finding something right, see an orthotics specialist, to make foot/knee wear tailored to you.

Cushioned heel: A shoe with some cushion will provide some "shock absorption" for your knee.
