ZenToes Gel Toe Separators for Overlapping Toes, Bunions, Big Toe Alignment, Corrector and Spacer - 4 Pack (White)

Excellent product. I've tried other types in the past. These are superior. Comfortable and supportive. Separate the big toe from the second toe. My foot feels so much better.

This is a great product and worth the purchase. It’s silicone so it’s comfortable and flexible. I wear it when I’m at work because I’m on my feet all day. I get some foot pain due to bunions and I got this to help reduce some of the pain when I’m on my feet. It’s 100% efficient and it does not slip out of my toe. It’s easily washable too. If you’re on the fence about purchasing this, I say go for it!

My husband has arthritis in his toes and the podiatrist recommended he sleeps with toe separators. These seem to do a good job. They help keep his toes separated and are helping with the cramps and keeping the toes apart. They fit nicely and comfortable.

I so wish I would have taken before and after pictures!! This thing is amazing! And it comes with 4 in a pack! I can totally wear it with shoes and don’t even notice it’s there. It alleviated the stinging pain almost instantly. And the bunion swelling has gone down. This is a great purchase and I recommend it to anyone in need!!

Item was too thick and bulky to fit comfortably between toes. Very uncomfortable.

Helped with the pain. First few days wearing, it caused my toes to be sore. But you get used to it. Just wash daily to keep clean. You can have it fit comfortably in your shoes. The jelly is pretty soft, so I can see it not lasting forever and there already some signs of wear and tear. But it’s comfortable for me and does the job.

Zen Toes for overlapping toes are very comfortable to wear. They are easy to put on and stay in place because the separators stick to my toes. It’s very convenient and helps keep my toes apart comfortably all day.

I purchased these for my two big, hereditary bunion toes. I wear them on my big toes. They have massively helped my toe-position, increasing the space between my big/index toes as my doctor prescribed. Seriously, nothing was working. It helped with my other muscular issues like shin splints, patella (kneecap) pain, pronation (my feet and ankles don't stand/walk flat, instead they roll inwards), and possibly plantar fasciitis (the bottom/arch muscle of the foot). Most days, I am in zero pain (with the proper footwear that is properly maintained, like good running shoes for work and exercise). I can and do wear them with all shoes and barefoot (I don't advise walking barefoot in general - see my other foot/muscle issues!) I wear mine with socks and heels. They don't roll around despite heavy activity or walking barefoot; they stay put.The only cons:I know people complain endlessly that these are "too tight," they may feel that way at first. But I got used to it and they feel like they have stretched out. I broke them in by wearing them for short periods at a time.Rather delicate. I broke the first pair after everyday use for six months or more. I was a bit rough on them, knowing I had a second pair and I wanted to see just how quickly they would/could break. The second pair has lasted much longer. This is the first set (of two pairs) I've ever purchased.They do discolor dark gray/black when you walk barefoot or in socks. I solve this by always putting the 'dark' side (once it develops) down between my feet and the ground so the top is always the lighter side.Since bunions cause wider feet, if you're not buying wider shoes (like me), you may run into problems wearing toe spreaders in regular width shoes. It's more an issue of width and height if that matters. The spreaders are not tall above/around my toes.Like wearing a brace (for your back or your knee, wherever), your body will become dependent on wearing toe spreaders. Unfortunately, I used to try to tape my toes using Kinesio tape to grow the space between my big/index toes with limited success and I had the same problem with less results. Unless there's a way to wean yourself off toe spreaders (or tape) to strengthen your muscles and joints to hold their new position, like me, you will probably have to wear them constantly, 24/7. I can't not wear them for even 15 minutes simply sitting or standing without pain. This has resulted in friction and dirt rubbing my skin off and causing painful tears between my big/index toes. I have to wash them occassionally with hand soap and water (which helps a little with the discoloration). I may go back to taping to 'wean' my toes off the spreaders (I don't think taping and wearing the spreaders would work, though). My bunions are likely caused my more muscular issues than just the toes themselves, so solving the toe issue may not solve everything else for me, personally.Obviously, you can't wear thong sandals with these. I've tried for short walks and managed just fine (of course, they look ridiculous and I wouldn't want to wear thong sandals and toe spreaders all day or out in public) so that limits my shoe options. People with foot/toe problems probably shouldn't be wearing thong sandals anyway (as a support issue).As an active person, I of course wear toe spreaders when I do Crossfit and running. The only issues I have occassionally is when the angle (of running, jump rope, or going from flat-footed to on my toes) hits the toe spreader 'wrong.' It almost causes a bit of a foot cramp if you don't have time to adjust it.
