Povihome 10 Pack Toe Spacers Separators, Bunion Corrector Gel Orthotics (1/2'' Thick) for Bunion, Overlapping Toes - L Size

Oh, these - are - nice! I recently ordered a different product. In fact, the UPS guy picked them up when he delivered these today. The other was made of the same soft gel that these are, but it fit over the big toe plus the next toe. After 30 minutes, I thought for sure I was going to take my sock off to find a purple big toe! Boy, that hurt. Went back on Amazon and looked some more. Finally found these, and the ratings seemed considerably higher than most all of the other bunion products, including the ones that just went back. I took one of these and put it between the two toes, expecting to only have it in for a few minutes. It IS the large size, after all....right? Well, much to my surprise, I wore it in the house for about an hour and everything felt just fine; like I'd just started using it. I even forgot it was there a few times. Not at all like that annoying feeling when you have a big ball of lint that has collected between your toes. No, this is actually quite comfortable. As it was a nice day, I went out to do a little 'work' (does Amazon allow such 4-letter words here??). I put on my new Kamik boots and trudged outside and into the waiting snow. Spent more than 2 hours going hard at it....OK, hard for me. Moved a lot of snow, carried some steel for an upcoming project, changed batteries in the outdoor sensor for the thermometer, and played with the cats (aka; The Kids). Most of the time I had totally forgotten about the gel thingy between my toes. Was it even there? Did I leave it on my desk next to the keyboard? Got done for the day and came inside. Commented to the wife how amazed I was that it still was not causing any pain. ....Just had to open my mouth, didn't I!?! Not 5 minutes later I had to remove the gel insert. The outside of the bunion was red; don't know if from rubbing in my boot or if from the new position that the insert put my toe in. In any case, I removed the insert and all was good. No lasting pain or discomfort, like with that other thing I'd just returned. So, if you have bunions, these MIGHT just help you! Everyone is different, so it's wonderful that we can try things and, if they don't work out for us, we can return them to Amazon. So here's a huge shout-out to Amazon -- THANK YOU!! Go ahead, try these. I bet most folks will be happy they did! Nope, not done yet. Another reviewer mentioned that they had to remove their insert after a few hours. They then explained that the more time went by, the longer they could use these inserts and, eventually over time, there was no more pain. I cannot attest to that, as I just got these today! ....What, you're still here? Go home. I'm done. ;-)

I got the large toe spacer to go between my big toe to help my bunion to not get worse. They are extremely soft and comfortable that sometimes I forget that I have them on! If you have a bunion I definitely recommend these spacers!

I have thin feet and my big toe gets sore on the side because the toe next to it pushes into the side. I have used cotton balls as a spacer and they are great for a little while and then slip out of place. These spacers are made with a very cushy silicone like gel. They look like miniature I beams with thin layers os the silicone as beams to hold the spacer in place. One of the top bars is much thinner than the other. This is important to know as I originally thought I would place the thin beam below my toes (ie when walking I would "feel" it less.) Well, I found that is a really hard way to use as when you pull up your socks, the thicker beam on top will pull up and bend over a bit creating a hump under the sock. Reversing it so that the thin beam is on top makes it a whole lot easier. The beam will still bend up a bit on occasion, but with a little patience you can pinch through the sock and get it to lay flat. Once the sock is up, the spacers have never shown a problem. They are very comfortable and I wear them all day without any difficulty. (Twice now I have gone to bed, pulled off my socks and called in a night - forgetting I had the spacers in place..) Do they work? for me they are a perfect solution. My pain on the side of my toe is gone and I am now finding I don't even have to wear the spacers very day. I have not tried to clean them yet... Being soft cushy silicone I expect them to be a bit challenging to clean. But they really don't pick up much. I would also recommend being careful with the size for what you need. I bought the large based upon reading reviews. For between my big toe and the next, the size is perfect. (I am a B width, size 11 mens. But if I was looking to space between some of my smaller toes, I think these would be too big. Net: I am very happy with the product. Just be aware when you get them to watch how the spacers are placed to make out easiest for you to pull socks over.

I use these regularly, I have a bunion and they help with keeping the big toe from rubbing the next one. They seem to be good quality; I can use them for almost a year when using 1 a day but not the same one. The pack comes in 10 and I use 5 at a time, mainly for work. I wash them in warm soapy water and reuse. They have a thick middle with one side thin and one side thicker. I wear them with the thick side on the bottom to help cushion. They are easy to use, and I don't have any problems with socks. I really like the design; they stay in place. They fit good and don't stretch out or lose their shape. They really do last a long time so It's a great value for what you get.

These are basic toe spacers that are no different than the rest you see on Amazon. For many people I’m sure they do their job decently well, but for me (5’10 male, 185 lbs athletic build with job where I’m on my feet all day and am very active) these simply don’t spread my toes enough to help my bunion and also end up moving around in my sock and getting out of place to where they aren’t useful for me. I’m not sure if larger versions exist but my three star review reflects my personal experience with this product. If you are a smaller person who is less active these may be perfectly fine for you, so please keep that in mind.

Great item. Works well

These are the best toe separators I have ever tried! They are thick enough to keep my big toe from crossing over the next one due to my bunion, and they keep my toes nice and straight. They are also really comfortable to wear, and you can’t see them sticking up through my sock. This will be my go to’s from now on!

These stay in place and make a big difference in the way my feet feel. It doesn't improve the condition, just makes it less uncomfortable when walking.

Good

Arrived quickly and product as advertised perfect for size 10 feet

This product works really well for my toe issues where big toe and second toe need separating. I don’t like bands around my toes so this band-less, soft silicone separator is much more comfortable for me. I mainly use them for exercise walks, hiking and around the house. Ideally for use with shoes. Harder to keep in place walking around bare foot.

Comfortable and as described

works as advertised. pleased with purchase
