I got these long time ago. tried others, but these were the only ones that helped. I teach fitness and pound on my foot. Buy these.

They are plastic. They actually remind me of the same material that jelly sandals are made of, but a little more flimsy, if that helps. They can be taken on and off and they have swimsuits painted on underneath.

They feel a little rubbery, but more of a satin feel. I would not describe them as either rubbery or hard.

They are not super soft but not hard plastic - they are the best containers I have bought for Jell-O shots - cups fit great and good size! �

Yes. These are good. You might want to go to a red wing shoe or Walgreen and try a pressure reading for the feet. Gels last only a few months then need replacing

It is neither soft nor firm - it is a flexible cushioning support, like a gel shoe insert. Look at the detailed description and picture.

I'm really not sure. All the ones I checked seem hard like cement. It bounces well but surely isn't soft. Have a good weekend.

They r hard in the center and their is a thin,soft, flexible rubber piece around it so when you squeeze it you feel the hard piece in the middle. My daughter has never complained of them being uncomfortable.

They are hard plastic. Not rubbery at all. My daughter likes to chew on them and they've shown no sign of wear.

My heels do not slip out of the cup.I got them for some foot pain I was having due to an arch problem. The doctor gave me one and it worked so fast and so well, I ordered 2 more to keep on hand. They are very expensive in the drug stores, but they were very reasonable getting them from Amazon. They actually did away with my foot pain in just a couple of days.

They are soft but firm. There are three layers which can be pealed apart for the right amount of lift. I have four of them so that I don't have to switch them around so much. I put sticky back Velcro on the lift and shoe sole so that they don't slip around ( loop side of Velcro on the lift).

Not Gel... more like a soft rubber. The waffel bottom is what gives the "cushion" and they work fairly well for many patients except when they are too big for the shoe.

They are a rubbery material. I've had mine since sometime back in the summer and they have worked well.

Rose with Pedag USA: Lady Gel is probably a "surer thing" in your case. Lady will likely be fine but Lady Gel is even lower profile. Lady Gel surface is velour so it is soft. Lady Gel is hand washable and air dry and therefore movable from shoe to shoe..

They are hard plastic but they do not hurt. We love this for neck and back problems.
