Great for bone spurs and plantar fasciitis issues
Love Tuli gel heel cup. Walking and exercising has been difficult after being diagnosed with bone spurs and plantar fasciitis. My podiatrist recommended these shoe /sneaker inserts. What a difference they have made in comfort and pain relief . I use these heel cups in my Sketchers slip on walking shoes and all my sneakers. Have already ordered 6 packages.

Sports Medicine Dr. recommended for insertional Achilles tendinopathy
Same Great product/brand and less expensive than I was charged by Ortho doctor. The one the doctor sold me finally got rather worn & discolored after several months of walking/hiking despite washings. Used the new replacement until my condition resolved itself. Only had problem in one heel so it was only that heel I used a cup.

Heavy duty heel cup…to the rescue!
The gel heel cup, has helped my left heel pain, I simply put the insert, in my shoe, using a shoe horn, am able to get the shoe on easily. I have used it in slip ons, as well as tie tennis shoes. I definitely would recommend this product for heel pain, since I have relief I’m putting off a visit to a podiatrist. The product arrived promptly, and packaged well.

It's okay, but it didn't convince me
They are more or less. The product fulfills its function, but it did not exceed my expectations. Maybe it works better for you.

Effective, all-day relief
We're moving, and I've been on my feet for days packing and moving boxes. I started to get a low back ache that traveled down my leg to my foot, which is a sign I've got a lot of pain incoming. Before it got worse, I bought these inserts, and the relief has been immediate!PROS* You can feel the springiness from the "waffle" cushion sending energy back, helping you to keep on going.* Clear, so they're not too visible.* Can be worn with or without socks (can help if your shoe fit isn't roomy).* Absolutely helped with a recurring issue I have with sensitive heels, and sciatica-like pain, when standing too long.* Covers a lot of my heel, which may provide some help when breaking in new shoes.* Gel is comfortable (doesn't move around), soft, and easy to clean. Haven't noticed any odd smells.CONS* Despite getting size small, it feels a bit tight in some sneakers. Wearing with my roomiest sneakers without socks feels most comfortable.* Not the most expensive, not drugstore cheap. I've worn for about two weeks. Would love if they hold up for months.TIP: Give them a little time to break in. At first, I thought the waffles were too wide-spaced and wobbly. By the next day, they'd compacted a bit, and were stable.Absolutely recommend these inserts! I've been able to keep going when I know in the past, I would've had to rest more to give my sensitive heels a break. A huge life improvement and well worth the money.TIP: If you're looking for a cheaper option, or don't have much room in your shoes, you might try Dr. Scholl's gel heel cups (https://amzn.to/4l3UwBx). They're more compact, and the pair I have has lasted for years, provides relief from more casual activities (hours of walking), and are about half the price.

Like a cloud!
Night and day inserts. I have used over a dozen heel cushions for my plantar fasciitis that will not go away. Even with the other cushions and heel pads, I still found myself slightly limping. I inserted these heel cups and immediately when I stood up, not even a slight pain in my heel, pain went 100% away. I have walked to work, taken the train and spent an entire day at Disneyland - no pain during or at the end of my day. The gel on these cups are extremely comfortable and squishy with no noise.The only drawback with these cups is that it does take up a little space in the back of your heel so if your shoes fit perfectly now, they may be a little tight on your toes. I wear an 8 1/2 size shoe - high top converse.

Pretty bad, but maybe just my experience
I used this for a "fat pad" thinning problem with my left foot. It has very good reviews and initially I thought it would do the job. It definitely is nicely padded and seems like it should work as described, but there are problems and I'll get into them here.They won't stay on at all unless you wear them in a shoe that has heel support in the back or put them on beneath your socks and that is really difficult to do as they are sticky and the sock clings to them. It's necessary to have your hands inside the sock as well as the cup in order to get it placed properly. That just can't be done otherwise. I have to use very thick woolen stretchy socks in the winter and any other sort of sock is much to tight for both your foot, the cup, and your hand at the same time. This was very difficult to get right and took time.I tape my heel to help with the thinning problem in the fat pad and I pretty much had it healed up and with no more pain.......until I tried to wear the cup all day. I also decided to put it onto my right heel in order to be balanced as these things are anything but stable to walk on.After one day of walking this way my heels on both feet began to hurt. I just ignored it.....you get days like this now and then, but the next day both heels were really sore. Eventually, I figured there could be no other cause than the cups so took them off for the rest of the day . By evening both heels were somewhat better and the next morning the pain in the right heel was pretty much gone. Still slightly sore in the heel with the fat pad thinning but I figure that will be OK by this evening.Now, a lot of people seem to like these and have no problem. Maybe it's just me, but I'm putting this out there so others can make a better decision.Hope this helps!

Game changer
I used to be an avid runner but due to pain in the back of my heel I could never go for too long. I suffer from Haglund deformity on the back of both heels which causes easy irritation of the back of the heel as it rubs with the back of the shoe--the inflammation was often debilitating. For the past 3 years, I was not sure the answer and often resorted to not running at all to try to "rest" the heel. Those days (fingers crossed) are over thanks to these heel cups! After inserting them, I went on a quick 3 mile run and felt some same discomfort at first, but just needed to tighten my shoe laces which helped. I continued to run doing track workouts and trail run (usually impossible in the past) and with the heel cups, I was able to complete workouts pain free! In fact, mentally I kept "expecting" pain since I was used to it but slowly I'm accepting the fact those days are in over. The heel cups are simple and fit into any shoe (cleats, running shoes, work shoes) and though they are effective, they are not bulky at all. I recently bought a second pair because I got tired of switching them from shoe to shoe--and it was my pleasure to financially support a great company and a great product.Pros: Fits easily, very effective if you have heel problems (bottom or back of heel), takes strain off from impact of runningCons: Wish they would sell a 2 pack or 3 pack for slightly cheaper :) but worth every penny anywaysOverall: this product is a game changer for me and even if you dont have exact same heel problem, it will make a positive impact to reducing stress of walking, running, sports--haven't tried this in my cleats but eager to see how they work

Buenas plantillas
Padezco de fasitis plantar y me ayudaron algo en amortiguar la pisada, me cuesta mucho trabajo apoyar mi pie y a pesar de contar con tenis memory foam esta plantilla me ayudo cuando salía a ejercitarme.Trabajo en una planta automotriz por lo que debo de llevar zapato industrial de casquillo más de 10 horas, las plantillas sin duda ayudaron con ello, solo comento que con ellas si se me ajusta más el zapato.

Excellent product and well designed
Excellent product and well designed. Just like having sponge cushion under your heels and relieves the aching heels. Fits well in the shoes without the need to increase the shoe size, washable and just comfortable to wear. Plantar fasciitis could also be caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia to the heel bone, due to small tear or damages, just like a pulled muscle. Think how many steps we take each day, say 4000-5000 steps, that's is how many times we step on those damaged heel muscle without giving it a chance to heal. Imagine like when we have a torn muscle but we never stop using it. So step one, heal those plantar fascia first. But how? We all need to walk each day, from a few to thousands step per day? You must allow the plantar fascia to heal by walking less and use lots and lots of padding or cushions to protect the heels. Use double or triple padding/cushion to speed up recovery. Once healed, keep using the cushions until the heels are fully recovered. Wear thick sole trainers with memory foam. Hope this info helps.

Trop souple
Ne rehausse le talon que de quelques millimètres car beaucoup trop mou. Ne convient pas pour les problème de tendons d’Achille notamment haglund

Excellent product
I’ve had extreme heel pain for 4 years. Have tried 2 pairs of expensive orthotics, physio, chiropractor, podiatrist, reflexology, shockwave and laser treatments. My MRI’s lean towards it being bursitis. Nothing has taken this horrible pain away. Ive spent thousands of dollars. I’ve had these in my shoes for 1 week now and it’s made such a difference. I don’t think I’ll ever find a 100% cure but these definitely make it bearable. Highly recommend trying these if you have heel pain.Oct 29, 2023Just updating my review. After almost 2 months my heel pain is still much better. Almost close to non existent. I know though if I stopped wearing them it would come back very quickly. Planning on buying another pair.
