Very squishy and foot slides around in all directions with this on...
I really like the idea of this product, but it just doesn't work. When I tried this with booties, sneakers, heels, flats and with no shoes here is what I experienced - when wearing booties/boots - my foot would slide around with this gel cushion. I had my socks over my foot and this product, so it shouldn't have moved as much, but it did. Have you ever tried walking with your feet kind of moving back and forth or side to side in any of your shoes? Yea, me neither. So this was an uncomfortable experience. This happened in booties, heals, healed booties, wedges. When wearing sneaker, tennis shoes, flats - these gel pads moved a lot less as there is less friction and pressure on the toe area, BUT it did not work well with all flats (pointy, almond toe, or that have petite noses instead of elongated noses). Did it help relieve pressure and pain? Kind of? It is very jelly, so it creates an extra cushion barrier between the toes and that part of the foot and the shoes you are wearing. If you are on your feet a lot or all day this isn't the best product to help minimize impact, paint and pressure. This also causes your footsies to presperate and sweat because the product is gel-like and the feet inside already a closed shoe are not extra contained with something that doesn't allow a lot of breathability. Yes there are those holes in the product for that breathability, but it just doesn't quite work the way I was hoping it would.
