Abstract: A rehabilitation footwear device for assisting in controlling weight application to an injured lower appendage includes a shoe that is configured to position around and reversibly couple to a foot of a user. A control module that comprises a power module and a microprocessor is coupled to the shoe. The microprocessor is operationally coupled to the power module. A plurality of sensors is coupled to and positioned in a sole of the shoe. The sensors are operationally coupled to the microprocessor. The sensors are configured to measure pressure applied to the sole from the foot that is positioned in the shoe and to relay a pressure measurement to the microprocessor. A speaker is coupled to the shoe. The speaker is operationally coupled to the microprocessor. The microprocessor is positioned to compel the speaker to emit an audio alert should the pressure measurement exceed a threshold limit.
