Metatarsal Pads Ball of Foot Cushions 8 Pack /4 Pairs Gel Ball Feet Pads Mortons Neuroma Callus Foot Pain Relief Bunion Forefoot Support for Women Men (One Size Fits All, Count, 4)

I love these pads. I found that I needed to place them on my feet somewhat precisely for the right balance of comfort and support. But give it twenty or thirty reps and you'll get the hang of it. I did.I was confused about a few points from reading the reviews, so let me tell you what I wish I'd read: these DO stick to the underside of your feet, if you put the sticky side against your skin. Don't worry -- they also DO come off very easily. Yes, they are reusable. No, you don't have to wash them, but you will want to, sooner or later. When you do -- just gentle soap and water -- let them air dry, and they will stick to your feet again just fine.Now, if you sweat a lot through your feet (and don't we all under the right circumstances?) they will lose adhesion to your skin. So, if you plan to sweat, I recommend combining each pad with an arch support band, which will help keep it in place.The left/right indicators seem backwards to me, which makes me wonder if the manufacturer expects you to stick the pads to your shoe rather than your feet. I don't see how that would work, but hey, I could be missing a trick. Me, I just ignore the right/left markings, and do what I need to do to support each of my metatarsal arches.With these under my feet, I can jog -- even sprint -- on my wood floor, barefoot, when before I could barely jog in place at all. I've used them when dancing long periods of time, and they really help my feet hold up to demand.When it comes to my feet, price is not a big issue -- I'll do what I need to do. So the fact that these are not expensive is, yeah, awesome, but that they work so well is the really big payoff.

I got these for metatarsal pain. The felt ones you can buy, worked well for me, but with sandal weather coming, I didn't want obvious pads on my shoes when I remove them in public settings. Plus sometimes it is hard to find the correct placement within a boot so the option of sticking it directly on my foot eleviates that dilemma. And so I decided to try these.They worked quite well. No pain (which was crippling) and they stayed on my feet even with rigorous use doing a construction job. I stuck them directly on my foot and wore hiking boots. Next I will try putting them on the boot and keep them there. I don't think my skin liked the adhesive for 8 hours, but I didn't have a severe reaction, just some soreness of the skin after I removed everything. Don't think that would be a problem for short term use and less rigorous situations.They do what they say. The cushion is just right...any thicker would be obtrusive. They are about the same thickness as the 1/4" felt ones. The thinner, outer rim of the pad is wider than the perimeter of the felt pads. I wear a women's size 6-1/2 wide and it covered almost the entire ball of my foot and then some, so for an average foot, they should protect the area needed. The thick center is large enough to target the metatarsal bone in most feet I believe. And it's so nice and soft....soothing to that vulnerable area.I recommend these. Of course everyone's situation is unique so it may not address every medical condition, but for my foot pain, they really worked!PS....after trying for a couple more days, when I was really working hard with double socks and new hiking boots, my feet sweated and of course, the pads that were directly stuck to my foot slipped out of position. They would stick fine for normal use like going to a lunch wearing sandles, but for construction or hiking all day, it think it is better to stick it to your shoe. I still like them.

I get a mortons neuroma if don't have a metatarsal pad in my shoes. She's helped me still be able to wear cute shoes I love but cannot fit full insoles into. I rated 4 stars because the adhesive could be better. Otherwise great product and comfortable.

A good pad but doesn’t stick well- the adhesive could be better

Not Dr.”scholls” but they do what needs to be done. These help a lot for cheap ,they definitely provide pain relief at the ball of the foot . They are easy to use , I’d suggest leaving the plastic part on half way down (so towards the back /end of it ) so that it’s easier to move around (so up at the tip near your toes it sticks and stays in place that way when you find the right spot gently peel back the film 👍🏽they are reusable I got my first pair from temu months ago and I’ve switched them to different shoes and they’re still sticky and stay in place they don’t wear down either -I hope this helps

I wasn’t impressed by these. They wouldn’t stay in place for any amount of time. I tried them directly on my foot and then in the shoe itself, it slipped around either way. They were not thick enough to provide relief anyway.

Oh my, these saved my knees. I also spend ALOT less in chiropractor bills. My feet feel much better, and they somehow felp my knees. I have purchased them multiple times now.

Pros: great support with the silicone material, but for me it needs to be twice as thick to relieve my metatarsal pain.Cons: My feet aren't flat enough to use these barefoot. They immediately peel away around the edges because the adhesion isn't strong enough to hold against my high arch. Maybe if the silicone surrounding the metatarsal pad itself were much thinner it would be flexible enough to hold the edges. Pics show how easily they peel away. I also question whether or not they will work for any length of time with sandals unless your feet remain completely dry and don't sweat in the least.My solution: My whole reason for purchasing these was to have firm support and wear them barefoot to relieve the pain so I don't have to wear sports shoes with the podiatrist-prescribed inserts in the heat of the summer. So I cut the edges away from one of the pads and stacked it with another one to make it twice as thick (shown in the pic is only the single-thickness pad). For now to wear them barefoot I tape them to my feet with clear packing tape. LOL
