Ball of Foot Cushions, Forefoot Insoles for Metatarsal Support and Foot Pain Relief - Ball of Foot Pads-1 Pair

These things feel outstanding. I have arthritis in my second and third toes which is forcing them to curl and the tips to hit rather than the toe pads. After a day of walking the pads of my feet hurt and burn. These keep the toe tips off the bottom of my boot a bit as well as feeling like the pad of my foot is walking on a cloud.The reason for my 4 star rating rather than 5 is that the design makes it 'very' difficult to get your sock onto your foot without the gel pad being bundled up. It would definitely be perfect for me if the design was a bit different.To try and solve this issue I just ordered 4 more pairs. I plan on taping (good ole' thin duct tape) them in the correct position onto the insole of the boots that I wear the most. Hopefully this will be be the answer to the problem.

These do help relieve my foot pain, but I can't get them to stay in place. I put them on, put my socks on over them, then reach my hand into my sock to position them, and then put my shoes on. But during the day they start to shift and end up bunched up to one side. Not sure how to get them to stay in place.

It may be a particular brand of tennis shoe, but when I walk for long periods of time in them, my toes start to hurt. Usually it is my second toe and it hurt like it was sprained. Anyway, I am overweight and attributed a lot of the problem to my weight, but noticed with other sneakers/flip flops, etc. with the same distance when walking, the pain didn't happen. The tennis shoes were expensive and it was too late to return them so instead of losing out on being able to wear them entirely, I thought to try these. They worked and they worked well. I don't experience that same pain in my toes or when it does, it is after walking over two miles and not on the first mile. A fairly inexpensive fix to the problem, but next time I go to purchase new walking shoes, I will try a different brand.

They do provide cushioning for the ball of my foot which helps and is what I purchased them for. However on me, they slide around and I have a hard time getting them situated in my shoe. Once they are in and comfortable, then yes they do help and work as described.

I had high hopes these would help. For sure these helped with my foot pain. However they easily stretch out and need to be readjusted throughout the day. At night I wash them with hand soap and let them air dry. It's nice to be able to wear them under my socks when I'm just walking around the house. Not sure if I would buy more. I'm trying some other foot pads but none I like any better yet.

For someone who needs this. I mistakenly bought it because of pain in dorsal area. Arthritis. Learned I needed an arch support instead. It is without flaw and certainly right for someone looking for relief for the ball of the foot. It is cushy.

Super comfortable on the bottom of your foot, but moves around a bit so you may need to adjust before placing your sock over the cushion. The toe part may bother you at first, but give it some time. You'll get used to it. The cushion definitely helps with ball of foot pain though. Quick delivery too.

I liked them the first time I wore them, great no pain in my foot. But the more I wear them, they move around and don't stay in place and I constantly have to re-adjust.
