Abstract: A pressure-relieving footwear is an apparatus that supports and comforts a user's foot. The apparatus absorbs shock that traverses through the footwear, limiting the impact against the foot of the user. The apparatus includes a footwear, a cushioning layer, a support layer, and a first shock absorbing pad. The footwear protects user's foot and enhances the outfit of the user. The footwear includes an insole, an outsole, and an elongated heel. The outsole includes a forefoot portion and an aft portion. The cushioning layer absorbs the shock and the support layer cradles the foot. The insole is connected across the outsole. The cushioning layer is connected across the insole, opposite to the outsole. The support layer is connected across the cushioning layer, opposite the insole. The elongated heel is connected adjacent to the outsole. The first shock absorbing pad is integrated into the footwear, adjacent to the forefoot portion.
