Review (5/5): BUY THESE - what is $1.88 anyway?
I am giving this one 5 stars for the price. Other brands are selling the same product, 1 pair only, for 4x+ more than this price. IT IS EXACTLY THE SAME! I recommend this one. You'll have to wait longer for it, but just know that this isn't inferior to the more expensive ones - there is no difference whatsoever.
A few months ago, I reviewed the same product by another brand (Foxnovo) and after reviewing it, went in search to see if there were others selling for less. That is when I found and ordered this one, as well as a pair from every brand, in every price point. I haven't noticed any difference at all between the Foxnovo and this one, or any of them for that matter.
I have a moderate looking, but excruciatingly painful feeling bunion. I am to the point of desperation, and have tried anything and everything I think might help. It's not magic, but my toe has felt much better in the months since I've been wearing it. I like it well enough that I'm even just wearing it around the house under my sock. If it's on right, I don't even notice it's there.
It's thick enough to provide *some* amount of support between the big toe and the second toe, but it's soft and squishy enough that it doesn't bulk up my foot too much to wear shoes. It's really soft and comfy feeling also.
There are a few reviewers here and on other similar products that complain that it cuts off circulation in their toe. I don't understand this at all. Are they putting it on wrong? :-/ I wear a woman's size 10, and have kind of fat feet. This fits nicely, and would also fit for smaller feet because it's stretchy and it stretches to get around my toe. I can't speak for bigger feet than mine, however. I suppose it could reach the point of cutting off circulation, but I really think if you put it on right, it won't reach that point easily.
You might be so desperate that you can't wait for this product to arrive from China. There are other options selling for $8.99 Prime-shipped. Go ahead and buy a pair and see if you like them. If they help the pain, that price is fine too. If you end up liking those, I promise these are the same exact thing, and maybe you'll then want to stock up by buying a whole bunch of these. They might not be the most attractive footwear, but the amount they have decreased my bunion pain is so significant that I don't ever want to live without them again.
