do they work for heel spurs?

I had them for plantar faciitis and they did not help at all. I don't know about heel spurs but I think it would be iffee if they would help your condition. I hope you get relief.

I would read up on reviews related to that. They provide a lot of cushioning, I can attest to that.

The day I was diagnosed with a heel spur, I immediately got a pair of Dr. Scholl's arch supports. I work in a factory where I am on my feet, literally 8 hours a day. I felt relief within an hour of putting them on. I have since bought a pair for every pair of my shoes.

Yes, I have plantar fasciitis, and have used these (in this type, and also the smaller one for shoes and PF) in all my shoes for over a year. I have flat feet. I also find that shoes with negative heels, like Earth brand shoes are helpful, as they help stretch the arch. I used to wear harder bottomed shoes, like birkenstocks, but these have eliminated about 90% of my pain. I walk on a treadmill 6x per week, for about an hour. I highly recommend these inserts.

I wear one of these pads on my left foot daily. I am a teacher and on my feet at least 8 hours a day and have no problem wearing them with my shoes. I don't imagine they would be comfortable with high heels, but then again, I don't wear heels at work. I bought one pad to try first and then ordered several to have on hard. They are washable, but I do wash them by hand rather than in a washing machine. I love these pads as they have eliminated the shooting pain on top of my foot. Hope they work for you, too.

That could work--never thought of this novel idea. I would think that you could tape a strip inside the back of the heel area?

I bought them for toe positioning. Due to lower leg weakness, they weren't useful,but I think they would do what you want.

Yes. They are adjustable, with little effort, to fit almost any cowboy heel.

I would suspect that they would not work. I found these to be very uncomfortable and putting more pressure on the center of the bottom of the heel. If you are addressing plantar fasciitis; I found the profoot inserts that support the heel and arch provided significant relief.

If you can remove the original liner,in one piece, they should work. You are taking a chance on ruining the shoe because sneakers are coming out with really glued on insoles and they are part of the shoe structure. I can't walk in these flat shoes so I get desperate sometimes. You could look for a 3/4 SOFT arch support or even a flat foam heel pad-something with a low profile, to raise and protect your heel and arch. They usually come with adhesive but glue dots work to hold them in place because the darn things slide around and mess with your foot/leg/back muscles. I find those gel heel pads rock too much too but you could try them. You just can't add too much height or stiffness. If you can lift the heel part of a glued in insole and not have uneven tears, and get one of those low profile heel pads under it without removing the entire insole-fantastic. Lady Foot Locker was carrying Spenco inserts and you can try them in your shoes at a store to see if they will even work for you.

Yes, that's correct. Curve on bottom, which lets the little padded part on the longer top comfortably secure your heel. Works great!

Yes, I have custom orthotics and they work just fine. I wear a women's size 9 narrow shoe and bought a medium Adjust-a-Heel Lift. I needed to trim it since it was too wide for my shoe. This size might work prefectly for a wide shoe, however.

That is roughly size 10.5 US and these spurs will fit right about that size. However, these spurs will not fit on a size 12 or larger.

Yes...it worked for me. The insert is wide enough so that it fits quite snugly into the heel of my shoe on top of the first insert. I make certain that the velcro fasteners of my shoe are pulled together tightly to keep the inserts in place.

Yes, the straps at the leg can make it smaller and the strap at the bottom should be able to adjust to your heel.

They work fine in many shoes, but whether they are visible when the shoe is on depends on the shoe style and cut. I was able to wear one in a heeled sandal this past fall. The guard material that showed through the sandal was not particularly noticeable because you can see the skin color through the guard. I was able to cut the tongue portion appropriately. Made a big difference as I had to wear the shoes for a wedding and celebration, including dancing. It stayed in place and worked out great!!

I originally bought them to help strengthen my feet with symptoms of weakness and discomfort on the top but never really got into a good regimen.Then came the plantar facsiitis with heel spurs on one foot. Right now using the foot wakers I want to say yes they help stretch and strengthen the foot and also break up the scar tissue. I would recommend and wish you success with happy feet again!
