At FRANKiE4 we have created Podiatrist-designed support shoes for women, using body mechanics in mind. Our shoes are designed with the aim to alleviate and prevent heel and arch pain, plantar fasciitis and forefoot pain. FRANKiE4 was founded by Podiatrists to help Australian women find shoes that are comfortable and healthy. 

Our Podiatrist designed footwear is available in a range of colours, styles and sizes. Our comfortable shoes are available in sneakers, heels, sandals, slides, flats, ballet flats and boots. These fan favourites all have leather-lined footbeds and rubber soles. Need shoes that fit orthotics? We also have a range of footwear that is orthotic-friendly. 

With over 71,000 verified buyer reviews our shoes help ladies to combine both comfort and style. We have concept stores at Indooroopilly, Windsor, Mosman, and Camberwell, where you can be fitted by our trained team. Our online store allows women across Australia to have access to fashionable footwear that’s both comfortable and strategically supports their feet.

Women looking for a more personalised experience online can use our Virtual Shopping Assistant. These complementary face-to-face sessions combine the confidence of shopping in-store with the convenience of video chat.  

Our award-winning shoes are equipped with the ultimate foot support benefits, such as our Sole Hero™️ Footbed and our soles. The Sole Hero™️ Footbed is designed with a heel cradle to support and cushion your heel; arch support with the aim of improving foot, ankle and lower-limb alignment; and forefoot cushions to enhance forefoot comfort. 

At FRANKiE4 we want all women to feel the tailored fit difference with our Sole Saver Pack™️ pack, included in most of our styles. This contains full-length footbeds, half-length footbeds and forefoot cushions. No matter if you have a narrow, standard or wide fit—our shoes will fit comfortably. 

FRANKiE4’s are designed to support your feet all day long, so it’s no surprise that our shoes (particularly our sleek and supportive black work shoes) are loved by health professionals like Nurses, Physiotherapists and Podiatrists—ladies with hard working feet. Shoes that support them on their busiest days and nights. Read about some of our health professional reviews. To support our health professionals, teachers, and hairdressers we’ve developed our Professional Privilege Program. Receive 10% off the RRP of full-priced footwear, by signing up to experience the FRANKiE4 difference. 

Our customer care team is so much more than just a friendly face, voice on the phone or chat online. They’re a smart, shoe-savvy and super-lovely bunch dedicated to helping you find the perfect fit for your style and feet.

How do they know so much? Every member of our team spends time fitting real customers in our concept stores. Staying up-to-date with training on all the tech in our shoes (there’s a lot in there!), understanding all things feet and learning how our shoes can help you. This means when you pop in-store or contact us, you can feel confident you’re connecting with a real person who has the know-how to assist you.

Your experience is everything to us. That’s why we offer free shipping worldwide for all orders over $100—and free returns in Australia and New Zealand. Plus, we have AfterPay and Zip available as payment options. It’s also why we ask every customer to review our shoes and why we have over 71,000 buyer reviews averaging a 85.9% 5-star rating.
