Silicone Metatarsal Pad
Pressure Relief, Soft Cushioning
A silicone pad that cushions the ball of the foot and spreads pressure across the sole.
Product Description
The sleeve slips over the forefoot and the cushioned section rests beneath the ball of the foot, where weight concentrates during walking and standing. The perforated design keeps it light and lets air through, and the flexible silicone follows the shape of the foot inside an everyday shoe.
Key Benefits
• Perforated Design: Light and air-permeable.
