Gel-Lined Therapeutic Compression Toe Moisturizes Socks & Big Toe Protector

I ordered these socks to see if they would help with the pain I have in my feet and toes at night. I have been wearing them to bed for a week and have noticed they are really helping. The gel inside stays cool and feels very comfortable between my toes. They are a little hard to get on the first couple times but do stretch out after worn. I would recommend for anyone with neuropathy in their feet.

I bought these for my wife because her feet ache after wearing shoes. These gel lined socks got a huge positive response from her the first time she put them on. Her feet are constantly hot because where we live, the temperature is hot all the time. These socks cooled her feet off immediately and gave her the extra cushioning the pads of her feet needed. We went out for a few hours and she kept saying, "Wow, my feet feel amazing. There's no pain." I like my wife being pain-free.

Extremely strong chemical smell (I am sensitive, but my husband is not, and he could not stand it). Had these on the laundry line in the sun for 2 weeks and the smell did not diminish (many reviewers said it did, so I took a chance). finally had to trash them as I could not tolerate them in the house even at a distance. Wish i could find some compression toe socks that did not have the gel stuff.

Husband doesn't like these. They are too tight, VERY difficult to put on and tend to roll down the toes, making them even more tight. Just not, apparently, well designed. He wore them one night (2 hours actually) and had to remove them (he wanted them only for sleeping, not walking in the them). Very disappointed. Must be sized much more for a woman's foot. He only wears a medium shoe size of 10, so his feet are hardly "too big" ...

These are made for working people on their feet all day. Alleviates ball of foot pain. Not made for dress shoes. Need to be restructured in a more durable material. Have worn for six weeks. Only wash by hand and air dry once a week. They are already disintegrating. Good idea but lots of room for improvement with the material they are made from. They need to be washed daily, but that would be impossible with this gummy material. Great idea for ball of foot pain. Lots of room for improvement.

These things are so difficult to get on, what with all the gel coating, and I don't really feel like they compress my feet much. The gel insides pick up every hair and speck of dust and dirt, but I can't throw them in the wash, so I'm stuck picking stuff off by hand. Plus they didn't do much for my tailor's bunions. I probably wouldn't buy these again.

I bought these socks just because I wanted to wear them with a new pair of high heel peep toe sandals. The sandals cover most of my foot except for my heels and front toes. Normally if I don't wear any type of socks/liners with any closed/semi closed shoes I get really bad blisters,corns due to the rubbing of my feet against the shoe. So I got these socks because I figured that most of my toes would be covered and I wouldn't have this problem. I am happy to say that it worked for me. The socks are short enough that it hides well when wearing the sandals and a bit of my toes still shows through the front opening of the shoe, which gives the illusion that I am wearing nothing under. I don't feel any rubbing against my skin anymore, they worked better than the peep toe socks (at least for this particular shoe.) I have to say that my shoe had a bit of extra room so when I wore the socks they didn't fit tight, they fit just right. So if you plan to wear these socks with any shoe make sure the shoes have a bit more room for socks. It won't be fair to recommend these socks for the actual purpose of the socks because I don't suffer from any real foot problems and I wouldn't know how they would stand against that. However I would recommend them for how comfortable they feel, the compression they provide is just right and it feels good. You wouldn't want to take them off. The silicon on these socks gripped very well on my feet and they stay in place. I am not sure how long the silicon will stick to the socks but hopefully long enough. I wouldn't machine wash these socks but hand wash them to prolong its life. I notice that these socks have no size information, which usually means that it would fit most sizes of feet. I find this to be untrue sometimes when it comes to clothing in general, so if it helps anyone to know I wear Women's size 10 in shoes, width M, and my toes are on the longer side. The type of fabric seems flexible enough to accommodate a larger feet as well as a smaller feet.

I ordered several different products to try and this product I ordered two more pair. I have arthritis in my toes and wear these for sleeping not walking. I wear them with the gel side out and put socks over top because the gel is "sticky". The product separates my toes quite a bit and comfortably. I've only used the product in the winter in Minnesota so I'm not sure how it will work in warmer weather.
