Depends: On what type of injury is causing you to be on crutches. It is always a good idea to protect the foot/ankle in at least a surgical shoe but knowing the problem would yield a better answer.

Supportive: Supportive and protective shoes are best, this includes high tops and lace up shoes. Hope this was helpful.
