If you are a #highheelholic like me, you must have always longed for something that could give some comfort to your toes while you wear those 5 inches heel and roam around. Have you not been in a situation, ever, when you take your heels off while sneaking away in the party just to rest your feet for a while. Well there are cushions for your feet. Yes, you read it right, there is something called a feet cushion that I got about 4 years back and used every time I wore high heels. Since I don’t wear high heels anymore, they are just lying unused now from quite a long time. So I thought for those who care, let me put it to some use.
Scholl Party Feet Invisible Gel Cushions
Help prevent the burning pain in the balls of your feet. Party all night, & shop all day! Reusable- Ideal for all high heels and sandals.
- Clear Gel, ultra slim and discreet
- Non-slip grip to stay firmly in place
- Re-usable
- Washable
Price:
About Rs. 300-400 (don’t remember exactly)
Availability:
Not available online as much but I have seen them at Gurgaon’s LifeStyle Shoe Section some time back. I think you can find them at shoe showrooms/shops.
How To Use:
Peel protective film off cushion, insert cushion into front of shoe sticky side down with painted end facing the heel.
My Experience:
The gel cushions are sticky at one side. I stick the gel cushion to the toe of the heel I am going to wear & then wear the heel. It really makes a huge difference, does not matter how high heels am wearing. The cushions have dotted pattern to provide grip, so that the feet do not slip. I have taken off the cushions from one pair of heels to stick onto another, but the stickiness is still maintained over the years, that’s really impressive.
Coming to the effectiveness of these cushions, I am really flatten. I have worn them with 1.5 inches to 5 inches heels and my feet stayed rested every time. There was no pain in the balls of my feet at the end of the day. I felt no discomfort in walking around while wearing the cushions.
During the hot months of summers, the only drawback I have found in these cushions is that, whenever, I wear these cushions with wide toe sandals, my feet tend to be pushed towards the front and this causes some discomfort. This does not happen with closed toe or narrow-toe sandals or heels. It happens because my feet sweats a lot during summers and the gel becomes slippery. Messy huh?
Likes:
- I have found these cushions work well with any type of heel.
- The cushions are slim hence the cushions will fit in closed toe heels/sandals.
- The cushions stick to the footwear hence there is no movement of the cushion later.
- Since it’s gel beneath the ball of your feet, it really feels great.
- I feel less tired at the end of the day whenever I have worn these cushions.
- Affordable since they are reusable.
- Washable.
Dislikes:
- Availability.
- Sweat makes the cushions slippery.
- Open toe sandals does not go well with these cushions.
Summary: 4/5
These cushions feel like a cool breeze on a hot night. If you ever spot them somewhere at a shoe store, grab them. They will make your heels more comfortable.
