Do they do any damage to the bottom of your shoes?

No, but I am mtn biking.. I wouldn't wear shoes I was worried about getting damaged in the first place!

Not really. The main purpose of them is to keep your foot from sliding forward in heels thereby making them more comfortable. They are not support insoles but more like a tool. That's why they don't take up the entire bottom of your shoe.

Yes. They have metal screw-like things protruding out of them so they dig into your shoe. They're very grippy.

Definitely. I have mine loaded with shoes - and some are rather heavy and clunky - and I have had no tearing or other problems. These are great.

The heels are not specifically targeted, but the pads compress along the sides of the foot in an alternating motion. You could adjust your feet slightly to target certain sore spots, but not on the heel. The rollers that run along the bottom of the foot are very soothing, but again they don't contact the heel area.

Not easily. They have adhesive bottoms to keep them in the right spot and from bunching together I suppose. I wouldn't swap them out to other shoes. Eventually, they wouldnt' stick anymore.

very thin bottom--but better then open shoes. They cover the whole foot. I'm using mine instead of high heels on a cruise and they are cheaper then Wal-Mart flats. Love the little bag and that they look like ballet slippers. Cool and classy.

I used them in all my shoes, sneakers and boots. Couldn't do without them. Hope that helps.

They may make waterproof ones. The ones I got were not. They are designed to keep dirt ect. on your shoes from getting into carpets and other flooring.

The wheels did not leave black marks on wood flooring. However, if you wheel through dirt it will bring some inside just like the bottom of your shoes.

The bristles ARE stiffer than most. However, I have used them on my sneakers (including the sides of the sneakers). The key is to not be overly aggressive. Go slow until you are confident it is not going to damage your shoes.

It won't harm them, but I do cover them when I spray my shoes and my wives shoes. All the best.

I've stretched them quite a bit and haven't had any problems -- I am careful though to not step on them with anything that might nick them. I love them!

No, they just have a good insole, but nothing but "plastic boot" on the tops of your feet and legs. Hope this helps!

There is a self adhesive spot on the bottom of the heel, but if you don't use it they can be removed.

I have not noticed any damage so far. Due to the rubber cover, it actually prevents the scratching of wooden floors, and it does not affect carpets. Now, that depends on how much you use the Ab Carver. In time, you may see traces on wood surfaces, but only if you use everytime the same segmentnof the floor. I hope my answer was relevant.

probably... but depending on the material of shoes, it could possibly damage wear down the finish.
