Gel pack both sides. Hand wash. No bleach. No fabric softener. IT IS HUGE! BUY A SIZE SMALLER THAN YOU THINK YOU NEED. It does not go by shoe size, but by ankle size. We were not able to use it because it runs so large. Hope this helps.

The gel padding is the same on both sides. The tag says to hand wash and air dry.

I use it for my left foot. The material is not thick and there is no gel pack. Pink part is different stretch material. I put it in laundry net and do machine wash and hang dry.

Gel is on both sides. I just soaked it in warm water with mild soap. Air dry.

I only have one foot and it is the left one. The ad. shows the right foot. I don't why it would not fit either foot. Hope this help.

The left foot side doesn't go as high as under the pedals, but does cover most of my foot (10 size), so there is a small amount of dirt that comes from the toe of my winter boot, but very little. Generally it's not a problem for me as I keep both my feet in the pedal area.

Thanks for your help! I used this for the first time yesterday. May have over done it by staying on at easy leavel about 5 minutes. My legs are sore today :). But I do feel different. I have high hopes with this!

Soon after posting my previous, my right foot came out during exercise. Oh well, pride cometh before a fall. I have an old pair of beach sandels with double velcro closures. I attached them to the pedals with the pedal velcro across the top of the sole. Works great.

Sorry, haven't had to clean the inside of mine yet, although I have worn them a lot and they are great! The insoles are removable, and I would try washing them by hand in cold water and air drying.

You'll need to purchase at least one tub. Preferably two. The first is for the soak and the second is to rinse. The feet are covered in "muck" to the ankles after the soak. You won't want to walk around until your feet are clean.

Podiatrist (foot doctor) can really help you. This product you are asking, for me works good. But I have another generic kind, smaller and cheaper, you can find it at Walmart or Drugstores jst for 5 dollars. I like it better.

I would pull out the insoles and wipe them down with a cleaner. Then I'd hose off the entire shoe inside & out - minus the insoles. I've done this with mine & they were fine afterward.

This one is designed for the big toe and second. One side is larger than the other. I believe there is another option you can buy which is for 2 smaller toes. Mine has not caused sore or blister in weeks that I've worn it.

Yes, it is confusing. If they had left that instruction out and just said to apply the gel to the patch, period, your question might never have come up. I was initially confused a bit, too, but then realized that if you apply the gel directly to the skin then the chances are great that you'll be wasting some of it because the area you applied it to may be larger than the patch can cover. As a result, you might end up with not enough gel to treat both feet and the company would probably be burdened with a bunch of complaints.

Packaging discarded long ago. No clue as to the answer. But the device looks and lasts through wear and laundry exactly as the ones my podiatrist charged me much more for. Hint: wash them in a mesh laundry bag and don't put them in the dryer to make them last longer--if you don't want to hand wash as recommended.

Oh, you poor thing....both feet hurt from this? Ouch and I thought I had it bad.....when I ordered mine, which was some time ago, I got two for the price of one. I think that they said in the description of the socks that there were two. Anyway, good luck and they are wonderful by the way . Using Penetrex really helps too!!!!

I use the pads that came with the unit. I didn't think of using gel because my physical therapist doesn't. I will have to change the pads soon though because I can feel them being less and less sticky every time I use them.

I believe that I got one...came left or right foot individually. Was I suppose to get 2? If so it would be great at I have hand washed the one often and sock fuzzies are ingrained in the elastic...thanks!

There is only one heel hugger in the package, and the gel packs are on both sides, so it will fit either foot. This style of hugger worked well for me because I had pain on the sides of my ankle bone. There is a different style of heel pad (made by the same company) if your heel is the problem. Hope this helps you.

sorry for delayed reply, I was out of town. It's either foot. and FYI . . it works "ok". If you have big calves like I do, it's hard to maintain the position. Try it.
