HappyFeet Metatarsal Pads 2 Pieces - Gel Ball of Foot Cushions - Prevent Forefoot, Arthritis, Tendonitis, Diabetic Foot Pain Relief

In December, I developed metatarsalgia in my right foot and walking on it was painful. I bought these foot metatarsal cushions and I was immediately pleased at the pain relief when I started wearing them daily. I stayed off my foot as much as possible, and used these pads when I was walking - even if I was just wearing my slippers. After a couple of weeks my foot was feeling much better I continue to wear the cushions most of the time to prevent a repeat injury. I do notice the cushions stay in place better when worn with a sock, and they slide a bit when wearing summer shoes with no socks. For me, this is minor and I am very happy with this purchase.

I cannot recommend this product for the following reasons: 1. The product does not stay in place. The single toe ring is not sufficient enough to keep the cushion in place. Immediately upon putting my socks on, the cushion would shift! I would have to readjust it before putting on my shoe. 2. The material stretches. Within the my 1st days use, the toe ring stretched, and the cushion ended up in the arch of foot. This product would be better if it had an additional toe ring to keep the cushion in place in addition to a material that does not stretch with use.

This thing was weird! The first time I wore it, I thought I found the answer to my prayers! The center toe ring must have stretched out of shape because it was funky every other time I wore it. It slipped around my foot and I constantly had to adjust it. I saw some other comments to use with socks, but that only made things worse. I found the best shoe was with a flip-flop because the extra strap helped keep it in place. I think I would like this product better if it had some sort of strap to go around the entire foot.

They are very helpful. It is soothing to the feet. I have some difficulty getting socks on with them but an adjustment does it in short time.

The gel is nice and soft and the loop keeps the pad from sliding towards the arch; however, it is not enough padding to help with the pain of Morton's neuroma.

My high arch of my feet made it nearly impossible to find a shoe that would help to support the arch without putting more strain on my metatarsals! These are so soft. It has relieved my foot pain tremendously, in just a few days. It has also helped my back pain. They are thin, it's hard to believe that something so thin can help so much! It also isn't so bulky that your shoes don't fit. Going to get another pair! I was worried about the toe ring would be uncomfortable, as I don't even like to have my toes separated to get a pedicure. But, I can not feel these at all. So "happy" I found something that works!

This product gave me blisters on both feet after I went on a walk around the neighborhood. The rubbery material is thin; it looks like a large section of loose skin. It is very difficult to put on (the material flapped around as I was trying to put on my socks), and once in place it tended to bunch up in some areas. After a while, once the rubber warmed up, it stayed in place. Despite my efforts to get the material on my feet placed correctly, I still got blisters. Not recommended.

The product is great! But they won't stay in place. After wearing them all day they end up on the side of your foot, which doesn't help the problem.
