These appear a little bulky. Do they interfere with dress shoe fit?

Toe loops are far from bulky. The tape is thin but very durable and has been treated making it feel soft against both toes. Tho it fastens with a velcro-like tip, the tip usually is placed between the taped toe and the untaped one and is not felt. At least I don't feel it when wearing closed or open-toe shoes. That should give you some idea of the lack of bulk in this device.

Personally, I found that they did not. it would depend on the width of the shoe, but I found these to be comfortable.

they do work but are a bit bulky doesn't bother me but something to keep in mind

Yes, they are flat, but are a little thicker than "counter type" pads one buys in stores. Not a problem in my shoes, but if wearing orthotics, possible they could make your shoes a tighter fit. I'm not talking thick, just not as thin as most.

I really don't know if they will fit, but they are much less bulky than I thought.

I would think they would. I have them in cross trainers and have used them in my dress shoes.

I think they'd work well, it just depends on if you'd want that look. By the way, I just did a 5K mud run on this past Saturday and I didn't lose my shoes once.

They are adjustable & you don't need to put all of them in. So unless they are Circus freaky long, there shouldn't be any issues other than the lack of space for other shoes.

I believe you would benefit from wearing these with your inserts, unless they won't fit in the shoe. I have terrible heel pain, and these DO help me.

Absolutely. In fact, I'm not sure I've ever used with my shoes on. There are cuff-like brackets for your feet, and so you can adjust to be sure they're snug enough that you don't slip out! (and not uncomfortable either).

IMO they aren't really noticeable. You could cut the cloth zipper assist thing off to make them more subtle.

They are thicker than normal socks, but would look fine with dress shoes. I wear them with all my shoes, but they are all wide shoes (5X).

I wear them, so women can wear them too. They are nice and thin. Haven't had a problem with them moving or crawling in my shoe. Good luck.

Norma, I would not suggest these to correct the fitting of the shoe. They are very thin to the point where you cannot tell you have them in. In general I do not feel that the increase in comfort was proportional to the price. Overal I was VERY unsatisfied with this product. I threw them away rather than worry with a return.

I have very comfortably used them in my women's 9 1/2 normal width shoes for over a year now. I prefer the small lifts for my dress shoes and the medium lifts for my walking shoes/hiking boots.

They stay in place, but I have only used them underneath the inner sole insert of the shoe. That is because I use them in my tennis shoes. I lift up the inserts, and place them under, and replace the inserts and they stay in place. For my ballet flats, I use a narrower insert that has leather on top (I cannot remember the name), and I find that that one works well for just placing in the shoe, without lifting anything. I have not tried anything with heels yet.

Mine do. I even had room to put in an extra-support-y arch insole. I've worn them with some pretty chunky wool socks and had no problems.

In my personal opinion no I don't think so because I think they're a little too wide, however, vionic also has an ortho heel insert called the dress slim fit. I think that would be more appropriate for a pump/high heel shoe.
