I'm happy with these...maybe not in love. But definitely happy. Less thick as the cloth silicone lined version. Good for me.
Fits my toes I bought them for. Fits my thumbs too and didn't plan on them. BUT the problem that leads to ingrown nails for my feet also extends to my fingers too. I was born with very fragile thin nails...that as an adult they split length wise and thus it is a constat battle to not have ingrown nails my big toes and my pinky toe too splits but does not lead to an ingrown problem. These are too large to fit over my tiny toe but usually a thick glob of acrylic clear polish protects the smallest toe. The acryclic nail polish also works usually well with finger problems. But have to apply almost daily as water take it off and if I put on too many layers on fingers it too seems to come off that much easier? So I can't wait to see how long these last in use on toes. I am latex sensitive. ALso turns out some acrylic adhesives used on latex free bandages these days has similar allergic reactions as the latex. SO this is my experiment. Not enough time yet to see how well they do. I still need to use acrylic nail polish a glob in each outside spot of toe nail..then let to start to dry and just before slip in a tight wad of pure cotton pulled off of a cotton Q-Tip. This helps prevent the toe nail breaking up and splitting and leading to the unusual case of ingrown nail infections. Bandaid over that helps keep it in place between showers and in shoes or sandals with or without socks. THESE will replace the bandaid I hope. Just had a reaction to a non latex brand used for 2 years now and yet both feet reacted so it's a no go. At same time I ordered these I also ordred 300 new never bought before latex free bandaids and just hope not to have a reaction. BUT would love to see these replace the bandaids. Mine have not split or come apart yet but have not used long term...so time will tell. But even if they are fragile but last a day or two there will be times I appreciate the option of using these over an ugly bandaid and sandal exposure. With all of them fitting my big toe...my other toes are too slim for these...I do wish they had one size lower to choose from. When I ordered one size L and one size XL. From reviews I determined the L was the best option. I'm not sure my husband wouldn't have issues with it being to small for his toes. I couldn't tell any difference in size among all ten. Packed two to a tiny thin ziplock bag. So they will keep clean while stored. I also bought the stretchy fabric covered silcone pads a set of four at the same time. I tried similar years ago that were all open ended. These were closed on one end and you could trim shorter which I do need to do. They are very thick and probably too thick for the use I need. But when my toes is infected it might offer much needed cushioning that these might not be thick enough to provided. But I am happy with these so far. And enough so I am looking to pick up a second set of ten today so I have spares when needed as I know enough to say they will be lovely alternative if bandaids fail me like they just did. But I suspect my go to will continue to be bandaids as long as I can find ones that I do not have reaction too. By the way ...YES I realize I am sensitive to acrylic adhesives some anyway yet to date I can tolerate without reactions to the acrylic clear nail polishes...my favorite is Sally Hansens Bamboo and Green Tea expensive but lasts a long time for my use. I was told a few years ago by dental workers that they have developed sensitivities to some acrylics due to their exposure and grinding some products down etc. over the years and a few are now developing allergies to latex. They were told that there seems to be a connection but not sure what is triggering one morphing into the other. But the 3M bandiad folks assured me that now and again others latex suffers have severe reaction like I did to their product some years back now. They were sweet and sent me a box of free products and a check for 20.00. No I did not ask for these things nor did I threaten them I just informed them of what happened and was attempting to identify the possible allergen trigger. And so now I have two possible examples of links of one to the other. These silicone though a rubber product is for the most part allergen free. But a few weeks ago I read where some folks are developing silicone sensitivities. So to that..I wish everyone luck but we are all individuals and we owe it to ourselves to pay attention if something seems amiss...stop using it. Test it out a second time to insure it could be the cause of the issue. In my case I have to make sure it's a latex or other allergen not say a secondary anerobic infection or some such thing which being covered all the time like I do something might develop. If that happend it might infect my shoes and then keep returning. SO I work hard to make sure my socks/shoes etc. are always clean. Yes I throw most all my shoes right into a washer...have for over 40 years including leather. I am a bit more careful these days because some expensive shoes a few years ago warned not to. At first I got away with it but one day the soles broke up. And eventually separated completely. They charge 100 dollars to resole plus shipping both ways. OUCH. Lesson learned. I wash those shoes by hand not machine. I air dry always never machine all shoes. But yes keep them clean. I use hand sanitizer on my rubber crock and crock like sandals and my leather sandals too on an on going basis. Usually every shower or two if wearing them a lot. So I keep two pairs of my favorite shoes so I can switch them out with clean pairs. Hope some of these hints and bits of info what I do to keep feet healthy and happy and treat my toe nail problem can be useful for at least one person. I know a bit long winded today. Wishing you all happy feet and a happy life.

Product dind't quite meet expectations but...it's close enough.
These are a bit too soft to handle toes all day.

Great! but...
These are soft and exactly what I was looking for!!!I need to use them for overlapping toes and they are great but as SO many others have said...NOT SO MANY MEDIUMS.The holes make them breathable but also make them easy to break. I've been using mine every day for ten days and being gentle. They haven't broken yet but I can see that happening.I really like how soft they are and would recommend them. I gave a rating of 4 instead of 5 because I only need the small size and of the 14 in the pack, only 6 are small.

Airholes make the difference
Bought these for my husbands sore hammertoes. There is a little blob of silicone at the end of the toe that makes him almost pain free. The air holes keep it all much more sanitary and less prone to fungus.I recently got a bad paper cut underneath my thumbnail and I used one of these to protect it until it healed.Love this product!Just an update to add that we fell into the perfect routine with his foot care. He now wears socks all the time, even to bed and the cushioning with the socks has made a huge difference. In addition, if he has to put on regular shoes to go out, he uses these wonderful silicone toe protectors.The last two pedicures I gave him, his toes almost looked like normal, healthy toes.He did, of course, go to a foot doctor in the beginning for a professional evaluation. Unfortunately, his circulation is so bad that nothing could be done surgically.These silicone protectors have been life changing.

Wife loves them
Wifes toes are always rubbing together and these help to reduce the friction on the skin.

Lifesavers!
These are incredible! I was able to get rid of the very painful corns that formed on the top of two of my toes. I still always put them on before my shifts!

On the large side.
I bought these to cover my baby toe which was rubbing in boots and therefore painful. These are quite large and stretchy and really don't seem designed for baby toes. I wish it was not so miss leading in its marketing. They do not stay on. Maybe this would work for a big toe.

Others might find these useful to cushion pain
Too pricey for me, I wouldn't buy these again. Depending on your toe size these might not fit very well. The silicon is soft and pliable and might help cushion one from pain and bunions but if you leave these on too long, it impacts your circulation and makes your toes turn white. This is a personal opinion only & if you do use them don't leave them on for long periods. Others might find these useful to cushion pain. .
