Review on Tuli'S 3/4 Length Premium Arch Support Gaitors For Plantar Fasciitis And Fallen Arches, Small by Darrin Lucas

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best inserts I've ever used

After 20+ years of working on cement/tile floors, I have all kinds of foot pain. And I've been putting off the podiatrist appointment due to COVID-19.No formal diagnosis yet, but I definitely have all the symptoms of plantars fasciitis. I also have ankle pain, as well as knuckle pain in a couple of toes. And I think my lifelong high arches are starting to fall.I've also tried many, many inserts. Many drugstore inserts such as Dr. Scholl's, then Powerstep, and a couple other "solutions" I've ordered over the years.These are the very best I've tried. Another reviewer mentioned that these have more metatarsal support than actual arch support . they may be right. I think I'd prefer slightly more arch support. But considering how much less pain I'm suffering, this may actually be a better solution for me personally. Nothing I've tried has relieved as much pain as these.Everyone's problems are different but for plantars fasciitis sufferers, I can tell you that one of the things that impresses me most is the shock absorption in the heels. Other inserts I've tried, the shock absorption seemed to disappear within a month or so and my heels would hurt so much it was hard to walk at times.I've been wearing them over two months now and they don't feel any different than the first time I put them on. I still have some issues - still a little ankle pain. But it's less than before I wore these, and the other issues (heel pain, toe knuckle pain) are *greatly* reduced. Most days, I have zero plantars fasciitis pain.I'm not claiming these are a miracle cure but they have really reduced my pain. And they are so far, lasting longer than any others.

Pros
  • best ones on the market
Cons
  • Not suitable for use with sandals or flip-flops
