Heel Sleeves, 2PCS Heel Cushion Gel Heel Protector for Plantar Fasciitis Achilles Tendonitis Bone Spur Aching Feet Relieve Pain

I bought these in an effort to combat my Achilles Tendonopathy condition which I had been enduring for a couple of years having had the bare minimum of professional (i.e NHS GP instigated) medical intervention which saw me look everywhere for a resolution to my pain dilemma. Subsequently, having been given a set of 'adjustable insteps' by the NHS podiatrist (who first saw me some 24 months down the line - good ol' NHS - doncha just love the inherent hiatus which helps you focus on you resolving your own health issues ?) I tried these for a while but they didn't easily transfer to other footwear and at the edn of the day, always felt uncomfortable. So I bought these little babies! They are comfortable, washable and give me the all day support that I believe my heel requires, nay - craves! I use these inserts everyday and they are by far the best solution to my particular condition. I am on my feet most days and as far as my working day goes, Monday to Friday I am pounding lecture theatres with an almost maniacal regularity. On top of which, 'au restante' I walk my 5 year old labrador twice daily ( every day come hail or shine) at least two miles 'per insta'. Though obviously an undeniable advocate of these little gems, I need to confess that my only gripe is that the process of 'rolling socks over them can only be described as ' an absolute pain in the arse! ' That said, these are an absolute boon if you suffer from my condition or some such similar. My advice, bear with it and buy these boys - and not just one set. Have a few to hand - wash one set, smell sweet - wear the other set. Without a doubt they are the 'canines cojones' !

While running I stomped heavily on a loose stone causing quite a lot of pain in the heel area that has persisted for weeks although it's been better when I was running on trails than when walking normally (barefoot). However whenever I hit the stone the pain would come back so bought a pack just to give my foot a bit of cushioning while running. Run once with the sleeve on my foot - during the run my foot got sweatier and hotter than usually, and kept sliding inside the sleeve. Second run with the sleeve on top of the sock - my foot felt like it was being cooked, got sweaty and kept sliding inside the shoe even though the shoes are snug in the heels. Impossible to sleep in it - the foot just overheats and it gets uncomfortable so claims that it's ok to sleep in those are a lie. On the third day of wearing it during the day while not running I developed a rash on top of the food when the sleeve is looping over the heel. There was some degree of cushioning while running and walking around. The sleeve is not snug enough to hold onto the foot so it keeps moving about and when it's too hot, enjoy the rash. Ever since I used thick silicon dressings for the heel whenever I needed it having chucked these sleeves in the bin. There's no leaflet attached with best practices. And yes, it gets discoloured very quickly making me wonder what chemical reactions have been going on (other than foot cooking) that caused my nice and freshly washed foot change the colour from light blue to a disgusting brown...

I bought these as they were supposed to provide a cushion for heel pain and soreness when walking. When they arrived I was most surprised at how flimsy they are - nothing more than thin silicone with no extra padding in the heel. After a few minutes use it was obvious that these are useless for anything and after several uses they become weaker and lose their elasticity and roll up when covered with a sock. People with foot problems will try anything to try and reduce their pain but unfortunately unscrupulous suppliers prey on this claiming that their products will be of great help. I should have known better. So if anyone reading this is considering giving them a try my advice is don’t waste your money.

Great item to relieve pain in the heel, but not perfect. I have a horrible problem with most of my shoes, doesn’t matter if new or old, as I get blisters on my heels almost all the time and can easily say that this product saved my heels for a while. However, I’m working a job where I might need to wear the same shoes for 10-12 hours and that’s where it gets bad. After a couple of such long shifts I noticed rashes on my feet as the ventilation of the product is super poor (those 6 holes on the sides don’t do anything...). And the biggest problem was that when the foot got sweaty the sleeves started slipping and folding on my souls making it super uncomfortable to wear. Sometimes I as well had problems getting my feet into a tighter shoe as the sleeve was slipping and folding... Would still recommend the product as it is perfect for a short wear or wearing in shoes like docs, yet unsuited for longer or daily wear.

I’d started to suffer from some tendonitis and heel pain and was looking for something that would provide some relief when wearing walking shoes and boots. I have to say these sleeves have worked brilliantly for me. They are very soft and stretchy and go on the foot very easily. Putting a sock on takes a little care but properly done keeps the sleeves in place. The sleeves are not so thick that they alter your foot size which would just create further problems in the shoe. I’ve worn these for walks every day this week, in walking shoes and boots and the sleeve has provided comfort and protection and stayed in place during some longish (6-7mile) hill walks. With only one pair of shoes did I experience any movement of the sleeve, which was easily rectified during the walk. They wash well and when re-powdered with a little talc they are as good as new! Very impressed with this little device, which has given me miles of pleasurable walking and more to come!

Snapped after a few hours of use

Excellent quality. Did the job.

Do work when they stay in place

Utiliser sur un semi marathon. Parfait, confortable et efficace. Difficile d évaluer pour la transpiration car course effectuée dans la neige et température négative. Facile a nettoyer

Super. Très satisfaite du produit

Presi per proteggere i talloni dallo sfregamento con la scarpa. Mi hanno salvato la vita! Con qualsiasi scarpa da ranning, dopo dieci minuti di camminata, mi si formavano sempre delle fastidiose vesciche. Questo è un problema che mi affligge da anni. Con questi cuscinetti ho salvato i miei piedi, posso camminare per ore senza nessun fastidio e quando li tolgo basta una veloce passata con acqua tiepida e sapone e li riutilizzo il giorno dopo. Consigliatissimi

Ware super

Muy cómodas y me quitan el dolor
