I am glad that I did this

I bought these for a pair of pointed toe stilletos I own that are just a bit too wobbly to walk in. They helped a lot with the wobbliness, but they are more obvious than I thought that they would be, even in clear.Size wise these run small. I bought the normal with the thought in mind that if they were too big for the pair of shoes that I could use them on another pair. I am glad that I did this, Im not sure the narrow would fit on anything I own. So if you are going back and forth between…

Pros
  • Health Care
Cons
  • Reduces the aesthetic appeal of the shoe

I used these on my heels as a bridesmaid in an outdoor wedding. On all the uneven terrain, including rocks, gravel, dirt, lawn, pave stone, hills, ditches, etc., these definitely helped my footing be more secure. I tried walking in a couple different pairs of heels WITHOUT these heel protectors during the outdoors rehearsal. In less than 10 minutes I knew I could not continue safely or comfortably. I added these heel protectors as well as some shoe straps, and my walking became much more…

Pros
  • Sometimes hard to get them on..
Cons
  • Can be difficult to apply correctly

They tends to shift around and not staying in place

Works ok, put doesn’t stay straight in placeMaybe I have the wrong size?The cheaper ones work just as well, maybe betterBut these does have larger bottom than the cheaper heel protectors I have- I don’t walk on grass or bad surfaces much anywayJust want to protect the bottom of the heels - especially thin one like 8mm or less tip

Pros
  • These worked great for the grass wedding. A bit difficult to get onto the heel and off.
Cons
  • Adds unnecessary bulk to the heels

NOT RETURNABLE - But are great!

These are NOT returnable even though the product page clearly says that they are which makes me think the seller is being sneaky. I ordered two in classic for me and my mom and had to return for a wide and a narrow. The narrow fit my Michael Kors Flex Kitten Pump perfectly even though they should have fit the classic per the measurements.When I tried to return the classic, I was told that I couldn't and had to contact Revain which is kind of a pain.

Pros
  • It actually works!
Cons
  • Didn’t fit snugly and fell off. Ruined the heel on my brand new shoe.

Lost one within an hour

I received my order on a Thursday and lost one at an outdoor wedding on a Friday. I ordered the narrow for a pair of Louboutin and was happy with the product for about an hour. Yes, I put them on correctly. I easily maneuvered through the parking lot which was uneven with some gravel. They were great on the grass. So far, so good. The reception required walking along a path which was comprised of pieces of slate. The slate was not raised but there were small spaces in between the stones. The…

Pros
  • Save money by avoiding costly shoe repairs and replacements
Cons
  • Can affect the natural heel height of the shoe

Worked Perfectly! good for me

I used these for an outdoor wedding this weekend - where it had been raining all day so the ground was soft and wet. They worked perfectly. I see other reviews where the heels popped out the back of the protector, but you have to make sure the heel of your shoe is pushed all the way down into the bottom of the protector. I also measured to make sure that I had the exact right size.I was the only bridesmaid who bought these (with my stilettos!) and was the only one who didn't sink in the ground.

Pros
  • HH-SS-CL
Cons
  • Can be time-consuming to remove and replace

I was happy with the purchase

It fit and protected from the grass, in the beginning. By the end of the night my heel went through both of them but we were dancing etc. for several hours. I was happy with the purchase. 4 stars only because the heels were through the product by the end of the night.

Pros
  • Perfect for an outdoor wedding on grass
Cons
  • May slip off the heel over time

Worked great for outdoor wedding on my Louboutins

They were stable and kept my stiletto heels from sinking in ground. The only part was once it slipped crooked and I only knew due to photos

Pros
  • Keep your high heels looking brand new with Solemates Clear Protectors
Cons
  • Could cause damage to the shoe if not applied correctly

Put them on backwards and they should work!

I bought these to wear at an outdoor wedding I am in. I popped them on just how the picture shows them to fit and I walked around my apartment in them for a bit (still breaking in the heels), and they ended up pushed up on my heel and not even touching the ground after a few rounds in my apartment. :-/ I turned them around backwards to see if that would work. There is a small lip (you can see in the product's picture) on the back side (outer part) that may help the heel stay in the heel…

Pros
  • Prevent slipping on slick surfaces with added grip
Cons
  • Could potentially cause discomfort to those with sensory issues

Very sturdy protectors

When I first got these out of the package I thought I got the wrong size because it took forever to get them on the heel of my shoes. Once they are on though, it holds very well and doesn't give the shoe any funny feeling when I walk in them, although it does add a quarter to half inch more to the heal height of your shoe so if you are not comfortable with too high of a heel, its something to think about.

Pros
  • Ideal for professional settings, maintaining a polished appearance
Cons
  • May cause the shoe to appear bulky and unattractive

Extremely narrow opening

This only fits in the extremely narrow heel. Make sure This is the size you need before ordering. It was not clear to me, but has been edited since my return.

Pros
  • B002CWYCQW
Cons
  • May cause the heel to squeak

They didn't work for me.

I have seen these used on movie sets when women are wearing heels in scenes shot on grass so their heels don't sink and I figured I should get them for a wedding I was in. They started out good, I measured my heels before purchasing these and the protectors fit nice a snug, but after walking across a parking lot I started to feel unstable. During photos I realized they were making it harder to walk as I have a habit of putting more weight on the outsides of my feet and these heel protectors…

Pros
  • CLEAR CLASSIC – Enjoy the classic look. These heels protectors are a perfect for heels that measure 8-11mm wide, or about 3/8 inch. You’ve got the right shoes for the right occasion; make sure you’ve got the right heel protectors.
Cons
  • Can cause the shoe to appear unprofessional

Added stability with high heel

I chose Soulmates over less expensive versions of this type of product because they are shaped like the heels on my shoes (kind of a semi-circle shape). Other products I saw were just round. I also liked the idea that these are more of a rubbery material, verses a hard plastic. Of course, they're removeable so I can use them with other shoes in the future. Like many other purchasers, I got them for an outdoor wedding (which hasn't taken place yet). I did, however, "practice" in my yard and on…

Pros
  • Durable and long-lasting, you won't need to replace them often
Cons
  • May cause the heel to slip off during activity

rather have a little small than too big

I gave three stars bc they made my heels super stable and they worked. I didn’t give them more stars bc I bought the size they said would fit my heels and they were too big. I had my husband glue them on so they wouldn’t slip off as some reviewers stated. I didn’t care, bc they did make my shoes stable and I probably wouldn’t be able to walk in these if I didn’t have these on the heels!

Pros
  • Made from top-quality materials ensuring maximum protection
Cons
  • Could interfere with the shoe's arch support

Really helpful for my wedding heels. The only reason why I gave it 4 stars is because I have a different type of heel protectors on another set of heels that are better quality overall. These protectors have a hole on the side of the shaft where the heels sit which made trying to put the heel in really difficult & at times it would slip in & out which made me a little anxious. Still, on the day of, the product did what it needed to.

Pros
  • Transparent design won't detract from the aesthetic of your shoes
Cons
  • May require constant adjustment throughout the day

Made it through the wedding ceremony

I was a bridesmaid in my friend's wedding and the venue suggested we wear these on our heels. The ceremony was held on grass so we had to walk down the aisle and stand for a good 20 minutes. These definitely made walking on the grass easier. At the conclusion of the ceremony one girl's heels poked completely through the plastic and another was warped. Another girl's shoes were damaged as the plastic rubbed off some of the leather on her heel. In all, they worked well and survived on 3 of the 5…

Pros
  • Quick and hassle-free, you can still slip on your high heels as usual
Cons
  • Can be annoying to remove and replace every time the shoe is worn

Needed Directions or Description

I would not purchase again. My best-friend and myself purchased these to wear to an outdoor wedding, if you put them on incorrectly ( which was done on one shoe for both of us - as there are no directions to tell you which way they should face) they slide completely up the heel of your shoe and are hard to pull off. It wasn't a big difference walking in the grass. my (One) heal didn't sink which can be annoying and ruin them with grass a dirt stains. But the shoe that didn't have a heal…

Pros
  • Perfect for any fashion-forward individual looking to protect their high heels
Cons
  • Can be difficult to apply evenly

Clever solution to common problem

SoleMates are a great solution to the problem of your beautiful high heels getting stuck in the grass at outdoor events. They slide on easily and my hope is that they'll continually stay on as the shoes are worn. They don't "hook in" as tightly as I would have expected, but I supposed that is good so that they do not damage the heels. Price is great, and you can move them from shoe to shoe easily so you don't really need multiple pairs.

Pros
  • PERFECT PRESENT – Whether you’re walking down the aisle or you want to give your friends a small but practical token of appreciation, give a gift for shoes that they’re sure to love.
Cons
  • Could collect dirt and debris on the surface

High Heel Savers! - my new review

I wish I had found tried this product out sooner! I wore these to an event and it had rained the day before and it was still mucky out, I was wearing white heels so I put these on the bottom of my heels. First, they fit perfectly, I did measure my heels twice to make sure I ordered the right size. I also felt they made it more stable when I walked in addition to the fact they saved my white heels from walking across the field to the building. I would definitely recommend these if you have any…

Pros
  • Great for outdoor events, withstanding rougher terrain
Cons
  • May not be able to protect the heel from all types of damage

Fell off all most immediately

Complete fail. I ordered the size using their size chart and within 2 minutes of walking on the grass one fell off and the other bent and got stuck to the side of my heel.

Pros
  • Inserts & Insoles
Cons
  • Expensive for a relatively simple product
