ZenToes Padded Skate Socks for Lace Bite Protection - 1 Pair - for Hockey, Skating and Tall Boots

The end of my right fibula protrudes abnormally due to past injury which has made wearing high tops boots or shoes very uncomfortable for the last year. But my ankle replacement dictates that I do. The pads in this product make it possible to wear some of my hiking boots again. I was concerned they wouldn't stay in place but they do. I wear them over a sock which allows them to be used several days without washing. Not being machine washable is the only downside I've found but it's not enough to drop a star due to their great performance.

Broken ankle close to lateral malleolus - bought these to wear under the air cast to provide extra cushion. Instant relief.

Purchased these for my husband who has bursitis. Hey hasn't had them for very long, but they seem to be helping!

Good material, probably does a nice job to tackle lace bites. Tried once , probably helped.

These socks caused more pain than I had without them. I noticed where the socks were a little loose on me, it would wrinkle up and put pressure in that area. I thought if I called the company that maybe they had a solution. I explained the problem to customer care and he just said " How can I help you today?". I was surprised he said that. So I asked what my options were, even mentioned some options. He then told me that since I bought them through Amazon, I had to go through Amazon to resolve the issue. I had no problem going back through Amazon. I wanted to problem-solve because my foot doctor told me to buy a product like this.

They help my bone spur very much. So hopefully I will not have surgery

Comfortable

The gel pad is very comfortable. The only down side is that there wasn’t an option on size. It’s a tight fit and I can only wear it for a few hours.
