ZenToes Fabric Metatarsal Sleeve with Sole Cushion Gel Pads Set of 4

I have to say that I bought these for an 'off-label' purpose and that they serve as well for that as for the purpose for which they are designed. My feet have gotten narrower as I age (Yes, I know that's not supposed to be a 'thing', but for me, it is.) and it's getting more difficult to keep my shoes on. I walk right through most of my slides now, so needed something around the ball of the foot to add a bit of 'mass' to keep the band of the slide from ending up around my ankle. These supports provide just enough padding to make my shoes fit better. Then, there was an unforeseen bonus; I broke the bone just below my baby toe (that's not the bonus) and needed something to hold everything in place and keep my toe straight while the bone heals. These work amazingly well for that, without having to wrap my foot or have something that impedes my ability to walk while the healing finishes up. They also do a nice job for the intended purpose; the padding is just the right size and thickness, probably because Zen Toes is a company of women, so the concept of comfort is actually understood by the people designing them. Thanks very much for a very well made, very useful item!
