Buyer beware if you have sensitive skin
**Update: just since posting my original review I have broken out in an itchy rash while using these. I think the inability to let my skin breath has caused this. Obviously won’t be using them<br />anymore.<br /><br />These do what they are supposed to as far as helping dry/cracked heels. With one catch...you have to KEEP them on. Think about it; of course they will help cracking/dryness as you are placing silicone on your feet, a material that does not breathe and retains moisture. So in theory, of course they will work if worn constantly. However, if you leave them off for a day or two, you’ll end up with the same dry/cracked heels as before. These do not TREAT or rid you of drying/cracking, they just prevent it from worsening.<br /><br />That said, they do offer additional cushion in the heel area which is nice, especially since I have heel spurs. But the one size fits most is an issue. I have narrower feet, so these don’t fit as snug as I would like. If I sleep in them I HAVE to wear socks over them or they roll down and come off under the covers. Since I cannot stand wearing socks while I sleep, I just don’t wear them at night.<br /><br />Getting shoes on over them can be....fun. I must unlace my shoes considerably to get them on without causing these things to roll down. It’s not TERRIBLY hard, but it is a bit of a pain.<br /><br />I have seen medical grade ones selling for $40+ and those come in multiple sizes. I may just bite the bullet and get them at some point, as sizes would be extremely helpful. And these WILL help with dry/cracked heels but don’t expect them to cure it, or for a miracle. After all, they are $14 for five pairs. Lol.
