Metatarsal Pads Men Sleeves Anti-Slip Inserts with Gel (4-Pack) Ball of Foot Cushions for Women & Men Pain Relief Soft Padding - Sesamoiditis Pads, Metatarsalgia Insoles, Metatarsal Foot Pad Mens

My son had developed a terrible blister on the ball-of his foot from new shoes, his job has him on his feet 6 hours a day. The blister had popped so needed to be treated and covered with gauze, but adding the extra layer of comfort with the gel pad was just the perfect thing. I’ll admit they looked small, but lots of stretch and they fit perfectly and honestly provided the level of comfort he needed! Great product!

The stitching that separates the big toe and holds it in place is minimal, which makes it very uncomfortable to wear. The cushion below is good. Unfortunately, I had to cut the seam separating the big toe just to wear it. But now, it slips down when I put on socks. Poor Design

Not a very good solution for ball of foot pain. They cut the circulation off around big toe and rub blister on pinky toe. The pad needs to be bigger, it's small and causes pain in the center. Good material just not a good fit

I wear a size 9 women. And they fit well, comfortable to wear with any shoe-I work on concrete floors daily and my ball of my foot kills me, but these seem to help. I will say around the big toe slips a little and may need to adjust about 3x on a 9hr shift.

The only problem I had was how snug they felt around the toes after standing as a cashier for 8 hours. My toes were so sore around the front edges of the material that I had to take my shoes off and just stand on them for the last 2 hours of work, which was a great relief. Other than that they definitely eased any pain on the ball of my foot that I usually feel while working. Maybe if they were a little more stretchable around the toe areas verses being just a little snug it would have been no problem. I did not feel the pain until after standing for the last 2 1/2 hours before store closed. My toes felt so much better after taking off my shoes. The throbbing and soreness recovered within 2 minutes. I might try and put a little snip in the front area that holds your toes to see if that helps because the cushion for the ball of my foot worked so great. No pain there at all.

These may be ok for sedentary people. I tried them on and they didn't feel like they were going to stay put so I returned them. They didn't fit me right. They seemed durable, washable and were easy to put on. Yet for me impractical for barefoot exercise use.

I had pain in the ball of my foot for 4 months that went undiagnosed and was minimally treated. Once I finally found out I had metatarsalgia I bought this product and ice packs for my foot immediately. I’ve been using these pads nonstop for the past month whenever I’m on my feet. I really like how easy they are to put on and take off and how unlike shoe implants like Dr. Schols you don’t have to keep using the same pair of shoes to get continuous padding protection. The pads fit easily in all my socks and came out of the washing machine clean and odor free without any damage.Overall, these pads have helped speed up my recovery and are a great bargain for the price.

The padding feels good and works fineBut they don't seem nearly as large/long as they look in the images. They're smaller on my feet and when I walk, even with shoes on, it slides up over my little toe. When I pull it down farther so it'll stay (hopefully), it puts too much pressure on the part between the big toeThere have to be better optionsUpdate: They're completely useless. Under sock, shoe on, walking and within 10 minutes it has slid up off my foot until it became painful.
