If the AFO is not articulated (hinged), then the material is usually thin enough that no special considerations need be made. If it is articulated, then the section that is hinged sticks out a good ways so it's not the easiest thing to get inside a shoe or boot. If the shoe is designed so the hinge can be outside (above) the shoe proper, so much the better. Hope this helps. -Kyle
