Dr. Frederick's Original Tailor's Bunion Pads - 6 Pads - Soft Gel Bunionette Pad - Protector - Tailors Bunion Pain Relief (Low Profile Spacers)

Once I learned what a Tailor's bunion is....and confirmed this is my issue, I was intent on finding something to help. If you have a Tailor's bunion, you are very familiar with the discomfort. These sleeves seem to be the perfect solution for me. I don't even notice it, except for instant relief.

The loop that is suppose to hold the pad in place keeps breaking. So far, 5 of 6 pads have broken in less than 10 days. Once the loop breaks the pad iOS no longer useful. This brand was very good when I first bought about a year ago. But the current product is not durable and is worthless.

The soft gel pad was very comfortable but. No way to stableize on foot so could not secure. If that were solved, would be very good.

I have had this for a few weeks and wanted to actually use it for a while before writing the review. These are very soft and cushiony. Comfortable enough to sleep in if you wear socks or use surgical tape to hold in place. Easy to clean and seem to be helping. But, it did take a while to get used to. If you are just sitting around all day this is perfect! It hurt a lot more and became extremely uncomfortable to walk with it on. I ended up buying a pair of sneakers in a WIDE size (normally I wear medium width) and it made a world of difference!! It stopped hurting and I was able to be on my feet longer and walk and jog comfortably as well. I did notice they make an "athletic" model for those who are on their feet more. I didn't check it out enough to see exactly what the difference is though. One negative thing I don't like is it seems to push the next toe beside my pink toe over and sorta under the 3rd toe. It makes it curl over a little too. But once I take it off for a little while the 3rd toe returns to normal. It doesn't hurt the toe, just forces it into an odd position.

Great relief with simple product. Works as advertised and cost effective

They are too soft for me, if you are looking for that they are perfect, very soft

Great stuff I would suggest you make the piece a little wider so it stays in position better

The bunion pad provided noticeable relief from pain and pressure while walking, especially during long days on my feet. It cushioned the affected area well and made shoes more comfortable to wear. However, the pads do tend to shift around during use, so I'd recommending buying a foot bandage/band or securing it with a fabric bandage to keep it in place. With a little extra effort, it definitely helped manage discomfort effectively!
