Celebrate Older Americans Month: Stay Active, Stay Healthy

By Mallory Lor, CPed

May is Older Americans Month, a time to recognize the strength, wisdom, and contributions of older adults across the country. This year’s theme is all about aging with health and vitality—and that starts with staying active in ways that support both your body and your lifestyle.

Whether it’s a daily walk, light exercise, or time spent gardening, movement helps improve balance, maintain mobility, and boost mood. And when you’re active, supportive footwear is key—especially for those managing diabetes, arthritis, or other foot concerns.

Dr. Comfort shoes are designed for comfort, stability, and style, making them a smart choice for active older adults. Three great options to consider:

• Performance (for men) / Refresh (for women) – This athletic shoe offers breathable mesh, extra depth, and a no-tie elastic lace system—perfect for walking or fitness routines.
• Gordon (for men) / Grace (for women) – Lightweight, supportive, and easy to wear, these casual sneakers are ideal for everyday movement and getting outdoors.
• Finch (for men) / Wren (for women) – These stylish, sport-inspired shoes combine breathable knit uppers with a hands-free design—great for effortless comfort on the go.

Celebrate Older Americans Month by investing in your well-being. Stay active, stay supported—and most of all, stay you.
