With our first wedding under the belt this past weekend, I usually dread having to put on heels because of the blisters and pain my feet will be in. I decided to do a test wearing the same pair of shoes two days in a row.
For the rehearsal dinner I wore my favorite nude ankle strap sandal without using the sole patches on the shoe or my foot. By the end of the night I was in so much pain I could barely walk into the house without wincing. I also developed a tiny blister on my foot as well. I wasn't sure how I was going to make it another day wearing these shoes, for a longer time too!
The next day for the wedding and reception, I made sure to add the sole patches onto my shoes to see how they would help with comfort and pain levels. Since I was walking around more this day I felt it would be a better gauge as to how these help.
I was thoroughly impressed with how the sole patches helped me all night long. I was able to stand around, walk and even dance a little with my shoes on and with minimal pain! This was huge especially after having the aches and pains from the day before. By the end of the night when it came time to take my shoes off, I wasn't even wincing in pain because I wasn't in any!
The best part was that these bad boys are now permanently on my favorite pair of shoes. They don't budge, smell or show when I wear them which makes for a win-win! I love the cute little flower cutout of it so even if it did show a little, at least it would be cute! If you wanted a less permanent fix on your shoes, you could add these to the bottom of your feet for comfort wearing a few different shoes throughout the day!
These are also really cheap and comes in a pack with 6 patches which means you have plenty to last you and if you add them to a few of your favorite yet uncomfortable shoes, you won't need a pair every time you wear them.

I find that things like this always help temporarily, but they never solve the problem all together. I just wish someone would make heels more comfortable--why is that so hard??? lol

These sound like the perfect solution to the all too common sore feet problem! It's always bad at weddings too because I feel like I immediately kick off my shoes in order to dance!
ReplyDeleteThere are definitely some shoes of mine that could stand having these in them. Nothing worse than having shoes that hurt.
ReplyDeleteI have a few pairs of shoes that could definitely use these!
ReplyDeleteP.S that dress is too cute!
Comfortable shoes are a must especially heels so these sound perfect.
ReplyDeleteThese look like life savers!! Also, love your dress.
