I have been using cadence and they do help me with footdrop when I am walking on solid surfaces and give me a little lift taller however going up a half size did make them loose and hard to get the top strap harder to tighten my foot in the shoe I like my shoes especially when walking on treadmill and sidewalk but are a little slippery on tile and smooth floor surfaces but you sound like you are tap dancing due to plastic strips on bottom so it makes me feel fun ready to dance!
Yes! I finally broke down and bought a pair of sneakers- I love them! They are a little slippery at first on smooth floors but I am much more stable with my walking and trip less. It was well worth the $ to me. Make sure you order by the measurements they provide- I actually ordered a 1/2 size up from my usual based on the chart and they fit perfectly
I have tried afo ,fes,and exercise but adaptive footwear would be excellent
