Bunion Relief Sleeve | Gel Bunion Pads & Corrector for Men & Women | Cushioned Support for Toe Alignment | 1 Pair (Small, Women 5-7, Men 4-6)

These are the only bunion guards that consistently work for me and I have severe bunions on both feet. I where them when walking about 7 miles a day and have zero bunion pain or chafing. They are easy to put on, but stay in place once covered by my wool socks. I have a problem with the outside edge curling over as I put my sock over it, but once I get it unfolded, it works perfectly. Other brands have thinner fabric that moves around while I walk - not this one.

OK, I’ve had bunion surgery years ago but now I have what they call Halifax toe where my toe is wanting to go outward now not inward. I guess it’s a rare side effect of bunion surgery. Lucky me. Anyway, I’ve started having problems lately with my shoes again, where my right toe runs against my shoes. I have to go bigger size because of my big toe going out. I don’t want to have surgery yet until next winter so I thought I would try these sleeves and see how they worked. Omg, they are tight enough to bring my toe back in some but not so tight they hurt they are cushioned at bunion area so no pain. I was afraid I wasn’t going to be able to wear these new cute combat boots that I had bought for a trip because, even though I went up a size, the right toe still rubbed against the toe seam. After putting on this sleeve it’s like a whole new shoe now and so comfortable. I will be ordering more even though these should last a while and you can wash them, but I do want an extra pair. I don’t usually leave a lot of reviews, but when you have trouble with your feet and you don’t wanna have surgery yet this just really makes my day.

This product does not help at all. It does not stay in place and the padded part doesn’t even fit well over the intended area. I had ordered the large due to suggestions returned and ordered smaller. Still no help. Would not recommend.

Works well with protecting bunion, but does not necessarily open the big toe to the left much when wearing on the right foot

These really help my feet

When I first got this bunion sleeve, it seemed like it was going to work well. It’s actually very comfortable when you first put it on. It did feel a little awkward at first since I’m not used to having something just around my big toe, but overall it felt good initially and did reduce friction right away. However, after about six hours of wear, I started to notice some pressure on the top of my foot and around the bunion itself. The sleeve was still soft, but it didn’t maintain the same level of comfort and protection on the bone over time. The gel pad that’s meant to stay in place and protect the bunion began to shift slightly, moving upward and no longer fully covering the area it was supposed to protect. Once that happened, the friction relief wasn’t as effective anymore, and I ended up taking it off. I also noticed that wearing it alone in a shoe wasn’t enough for all-day comfort — for me, it worked better when paired with a sock to help keep everything in place and add a little extra cushioning. I will say that this may depend on how pronounced your bunion is. On one of my feet where the bunion is less pronounced, it worked fine. On the foot where my bunion is more noticeable, it was just okay — not bad, but not enough for extended wear. It’s comfortable and helpful for shorter periods, but I personally will continue looking for additional options for all-day support. Photo note: The shoes shown in these photos are for illustration purposes only. I did not wear the bunion sleeves out like this uncovered. I primarily wore them in boots with stockings/tights and a sock. These photos are simply to show how the sleeve sits inside a shoe and how the gel pad is positioned. Photo Clarification: The shoes pictured are very pointy, whereas the boots I wore were less narrow. Even so, you can see how the gel pad shifted over time, moving upward instead of staying centered over the bunion. That movement is what reduced comfort for me after several hours of wear.

These are wonderful for bunions! I wear them while playing pickleball and have way less pain. I can hardly tell that I am wearing them!

Nearly worthless. Nice protection for the bunion & goes on tight initially, but in less than a mile of walking the sleeve bunched & caused pain on the other side of my foot. Would be great if I could figure out how to make it stop bunching.

Love it

It is thin. It gets gathered while walking. I can't use it.

This worked nicely,padded my issue nicely

Lately I had been finding that several pairs of shoes which used to fit me comfortably in the past were feeling tight. The reason was reduced gap between the big toe and second toe on both feet, resulting in bunions. This product was the most highly rated one for bunion relief, but it simply provides a cushion between the bunion and the shoe, which might help tender skin to heal. However, it can exacerbate the problem if your shoes are tight! From my experience it is better to buy gel spacers which fit between one's big toe and second toe, which not only improve the fitting of one's shoes, but also correct the misalignment to some extent.

I read some of the reviews before I purchased this product and was pretty sure it was a good product but unfortunately it’s not. They rolled down and never stayed on my feet .
