It took several wearings to get comfortable with them. Start off slowly with only 5 or 10 minutes. I can really tell a difference in my balance after a month of using them.

Please make sure you put them on as shown in the picture. I saw a video review of these and the person was wearing them upside down. :o Anyway, DO wet them before putting them on; doing so makes a big difference in how easy it is to get them on.

I have hallux rigidis. Before trying yoga toes I had a constant throb in my big toe metatarsal and intermittent stabbing across the bridge of my foot.I started using yoga toes 4 months ago daily. After a week I noticed a significant reduction in my pain. Presently I experience very little pain if any. I have not recovered flexion mobility, but I have no pain and my mobility symptoms have not gotten worse. I even tapered out of my orthotics into a neutral shoe that has helped me recover natural foot strength. My toe is no longer limiting my exercise or causing pain. Hallelujah!I wear yoga toes every night without exception for 1-2 hours. I started at 15 minutes a session and gradually added time.

Better than any other toe straightening/bunion correcting product I've purchased and I've tried them all. It takes a minute for your feet to get used to these, but they are the best. I can wear them for hours now. I've had several friends purchase based on my recommendation and they all love Yoga Toes as well.

I am a yoga teacher and an avid runner and Yoga Toes are one of my favorite tools! I would not go without them! I know how important our feet are in yoga, in running and in life! After all - who wants foot pain?! You can go get all the snazzy pedicures you want, but if your feet and legs hurt - what's the point?Yoga toes are gentle yet effective. You might feel like it's torture the first time - especially if your feet and toes really are tight but start out a little at a time and you will be surprised at the results! Over time the tension will subside and your feet and legs will have some relief. I would say foot pain is one of the biggest reasons people are sidelined from running. Foot pain is miserable! Do something proactive so you can feel better. Yoga helps with our toes and feet as well, and Yoga Toes reinforces this practice. I personally used to have hammer toes and a he beginnings of bunions when I first began practicing yoga. My feet steadily improved. Back then I didn't know about Yoga Toes. Once I found them I wished I had had them sooner. It was actually my mom who introduced me to Yoga Toes and I've used them ever since. I run half marathons so I encounter lots of foot tightness. These have helped me prevent plantar fasciitis as well! This is one more awesome tool I recommend for your self care and stretching/ strengthening regimen! Great quality product, reasonably priced, very durable and easy to use. The gel is soft so it is not harsh on your right feet. You can even walk around with them on. Great product and gives great results if used regularly. I recommend daily if possible.

I love the good pain and stretching I get while wearing these, and notice an instant difference in my posture.

If you're on your feet all day in closed shoes, Yoga Toes are the relief you need. It says to try them for 10 min build up to an hour, but the first night I easily did 30 my feet felt better the next day. Realigning your bones, helps your feet overall. Happy with this purchase!

Weird headline, sure, but true. I ordered these late last night and they arrived this morning and I put them on immediately. Now I'm typing from the comfort of my bed and my feet and toes are so happy! I'm a trail runner with bunions, (ew!) and these will help improve my stability. So glad I discovered them.

While some others allow you to walk around while wearing, these toe separators are elite. The quality is top notch. Feels like they'll last forever. They appear to do a better job spacing the toes. I am size 11 which is larger than they are meant for but they still work perfectly for me. I would highly recommend these to everyone. Wear them for short periods while you're chillin on the couch or laying down. Really helps feel like I can grip the ground better and goes all the way up the chain effecting how my calves and everything feels

Has helped with my foot pain (in addition to buying new sneakers).

Purchased to help with tailor's bunions on both feet. However, they have been quite challenging to put on and, once in place, are quite uncomfortable. I've tried to wear for longer periods of time each day but just can't. My toes seem to clamp down on the inserts forcing them out from between my toes. I'm going to have to try another type or design.

These provide a lot of relief for my bunions. I listened to the comments and tried refrigerating them before wearing them and it feels so nice. Definitely gives the toes a good stretch I could wear them for hours.

These are great to spread and relax my toes. I use them often.

Besides loving the color blue I found them easy to wear for a short period of time with results.

I bought these to help with my plantar fasciitis. I started with a pair of toe spreading socks before I purchased these, as I read that was a better way to slowly introduce your toes to the spacing process.These are fantastic and helped tremendously. Start slowly with these as they are a much more intense spacing. Start with just a few minutes a day then work your way up. These are made for wearing while sitting still. You can walk in them but they're not made for walking and it's awkward. I wear them once in the morning and once in the evening. I'm very happy with the results I'm getting. A great addition to anyones plantar fasciitis treatment program.

This is only my second time using these. Yes they are difficult to install. They even hurt a little bit when you are installing. After installation if you could take a few big deep breaths and relax for 15 or 20 minutes you will be fine. The purpose is to stretch your feet, that have not been stretched in many many years. I hope to have an updated review in six months or so that my toes are functioning well.

Love these spacers! Easy to put on, which has caused me use them more than my previous webbed ones. Super comfortable to walk in! Highly recommend!

I am on Tamoxifen which softens blood vessels so perhaps that is the reason.

Super comfy, soft rubbery little yoga toe stretchers! Love the cute and comfy style!

Noticed a difference in just a few short days. Helps with crowding, and allows for better balance and comfort!
