You'll be so happy you did :) - These toe things are AMAZING! Let me tell you my typical (bad) choice in footwear: I'm a young woman, love stylish shoes. However, still in school and there are a lot of hills and I am walking around from 9am-12midight. So that's a lot of time on my feet! STORY: And guess what my favorite style shoes are: white vans, brown boots with 2in heel I've had for 4 years (they are worked in quite a bit), and B.P. boots. Vans? Not too bad, got at least 1in of cushioning but since I've had them for 4months now they are flattened and I can feel the texture of bumpy ground and it is hard at the end of the day my feet are definitely sore. IF there was a pebbly ground you would know you are stepping on something that isn't smooth. Brown boots that I love so much? Yeah the heel of this thing is fine, supported no problem. But the front of my foot? Exactly where the gel insoles cover in the picture? Maybe 2cm of thinned out plastic/wood stuff and my metatarsals are KILLER at the end of the day oh my gosh. But I can't stop wearing them just because my feet hurt. If there was a pebbly ground you know that your feet are balancing on top of each pebble and it hurts a bit. Worst part, red B.P. boots are my favorite and have the LEAST support of all they are the worst for long days at school! Ouch, so bad, so painful...but they go with my nice clothes. My nike's don't flatter my dresses you know. If there was pebbly ground, these shoes have such low support I feel like my feet go in EVERY SINGLE GROOVE of the pebbles and the pebbles are sharpened as my skin has to step on them. Without shoes it would probably feel better, but we wear shoes in society! RESULT: These half toe sleeves..just wore them today, are beautiful. Maybe there are other products that can help, but I tried these and I recommend all of you do the same. It's definitely a great buy. And I don't know these people I just saw a bunch of products and decided to pick these and OH MY GOD the payoff is amazing. They are made of the most adorably soft gentle squishy texture you just want to play with it in your hands its like thin squishy blanket that molds to you. And I have smallish feet, size 7, but these things could definitely fit any size foot guarantee. The material is very stretchy and the way it shapes is like this: one big toe socket and another socket to hold the rest of toes both fit snugly but there is some wiggle room and be reminded, it stretches. The biggest hole where you stick your foot in is angled outward in such a way that I fit VERY comfortably inside (size 7) but the opening still had flapping outward space that I'm sure is room for bigger feet than my own. This is great! Anyone can buy these. I promise I put these on immediate squishy heaven comfort in the worst B.P. shoes I was telling you about. I might be able to tell I'm stepping on pebbles but I have such a nice squishy thing that so delicately encases and supports my metatarsal area (in picture) that I could wear my shoes all day!! No more choosing plain outfits because I can wear my least supportive shoes now, because they are extremely well supported with these awesome toe sleeves! No more sad pain when I go home and my feet want to kill me, I can just relax from normal walking pain! Buy them you people. No regrets with this girl!

Try it both ways and see which way you like it. They are interchangeable. There is no right answer here, do what feels best to you. I am amazed how well they have held up. Good Luck. Doc Woody **Q: My feet sweat a lot, and I wear peep-toe booties. Will the cushion roll or shift around on a sweaty foot with no socks?** A: Definitely socks are needed to hold this in place. You could try it with sheer stockings or anything that will anchor it...it's rather difficult to seat them properly under a sock or stocking, but they will mostly stay put there. The silicone causes you to roll forward a bit as you walk, absorbing some of the striking motion, but they bunch up and flap around without socks. Good luck! **Q: Does it work for tailors bunion** A: Hello, The pads do work well for cushioning of tailor's bunion. Dyan **Q: do they make shoes feel tight?** A: Depends on your shoe and how tight it is. I used it a lot when I was wearing my track shoes walking around for many hours. What I find is that it doesn't stay in position so sometimes it slides and I had pain in the toes - both upper and lower. That's what you need to watch out for. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GET IT GET IT!!! You'll be so happy you did :) *by B***B on February 25, 2017* These toe things are AMAZING!

Unless you have heels which are falling off your foot so wide, no way you can squeeze your toes into your heels while wearing these. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Gel rubbery foot protector *by R***N on November 5, 2018* The gel like substance these are made from is both a positive and a negative. It feels cheap, like I won't get very many uses out of these things. I've worn them 4 times, with different results each time. The gel does not stay in place very well. You get it on your foot, and have to carefully stretch your sock over your foot, so it doesn't grab the rubber and roll it down. I am not very successful at this. Once I had issues with my left foot, once my right. The area over the pinky toe part of the foot was rolling down with my sock and creating a roll that became an irritation over the course of my shift at work. I had to strip my foot down, to fix it. The third time, neither foot was comfortable, at all. I still don't know what happened. I took them off, and put them in my locker. So finally the fourth night, it was ok. Nothing too great or too bad. When I took off my socks that night, I discovered the right one was half stretched down my foot. I don't think I will wear them again. I need something a little more sturdy and less movable, so they will stay where they are all night without rolling under my socks. On a more positive note, when they were on, they were fairly comfortable. Squishy soft. My feet liked them. My callous on the side of my foot felt better. I just don't think they are what I am looking for. ## Frequently Bought Together - Dr. Frederick's Original Open Toe Sleeves | Half Toe Sleeve Metatarsal Pads | 4 Pieces | Ball of Foot Cushions | Great for Calluses and Blisters | for Men and Women | Perfect for High Heel Shoes - Ballotte Premium Heel Cushion Pads for Kids | Heel Grips/Heel Liners for Boys/Girls Shoes - Back of Heel Pads for Shoes That are Too Big | Shoe Heel Inserts for Girls/Boys - Dr. Frederick's Original Soft Gel Toe Protectors for Men & Women - 6 ct - Toe Caps for Foot Pain Relief - Sleeves for Ingrown Toenails, Corns, Calluses, and Blisters - Small - White --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/37622628-dr-fredericks-original-open-toe-metatarsal-sleeves-4-ct-ball](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/37622628-dr-fredericks-original-open-toe-metatarsal-sleeves-4-ct-ball) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-27*
