Fit and Comfort

Pros:

  • "These heel soles are perfection. They fit perfectly in my ankle boots and provide more high, support and relief to the heels."
  • "Fits in shoe great. Does move around a bit but could be user error. Heels feel better after a game of basketball though so that’s what matters."
  • "These heel cups help me so much with my heel pain and they don't move around in my shoes."
  • "These ViveSole heel inserts work and are super comfortable."
  • "These heel cups fit my current shoes."
  • "These inserts are a lifesaver!! No pain from heel spurs after the initial trial."
  • "These heel cups are an ideal fit and they do not move at all."

Cons:

  • "They don’t seem to fit very well and they do not stay put."
  • "I bought these for my husband who is having a lot of pain with one heel. He said they were rock hard after wearing them around the house."
  • "I thought I was getting heel cups. These are inserts. they are very thick and ended up raising my son's foot too high in the shoes so did not help his achilles issues so they were not affective."
  • "I wear a women’s size 10 and the size large we’re still too small for my shoes."
  • "These are a complete waste of money. They are pretty bulky and after two days they are now tearing."
  • "Got these because I was experiencing heal pain and would wear holes in the heals of my shoes' soles very quickly. And for helping with those problems that definitely work. My biggest problem with them is that they do not stay in place. AT ALL."
  • "Comfortable for all of 5 minutes."

Durability and Quality

Pros:

  • "Five star product and service, all the way."
  • "These Heel Cups are just what I have been searching for."
  • "The heel cups did exactly what I wanted. Some shoes are built too high at the heel which created sores on my heels after walking for awhile."
  • "These helped me make it through the day with no pain and still make my step goal with no throbbing pain at night."
  • "Great product! I had a heel lift given by my physician which was made of felt, but it still was too hard and I could feel the heel spur."
  • "The are really fantastic. Bought them to help heal my planters fasciitis and they worked like a charm, along with regular stretches."
  • "These are a little more expensive than the ones you can buy at Walmart but these are thicker and feel better."

Cons:

  • "Pros: the price was right and they were not flat. Cons: constant day to day wear caused them to fall apart after 3 weeks."
  • "So I waited to rate this for a few months. After 2 months they wear down and they are not sticky anymore."
  • "They did relieve some of my heel pain from a bone spur, but they did start to break apart after wearing them for over a month."
  • "These are a complete waste of money. They are pretty bulky and after two days they are now tearing."
  • "After wearing these for one day, the silicone was ripped and chunks of it had torn off around the edges."
  • "But after about 4 weeks, they begin to fall to shreds."
  • "The adhesive only worked for a day and now they slide around in my shoes."

Effectiveness and Support

Pros:

  • "A heel lift was recommended to reduce pain/burning due to chronic Achilles tendonitis."
  • "I use these in all my shoes. I am very active but have some issues with both Achilles and these relieve the pain."
  • "These allow me to walk as I healed from pain in right heel."
  • "My physical therapist recommended these for a partial tear in my Achilles’ tendon to relieve heel pain."
  • "These inserts changed my life."
  • "Son used for triple jump after heel injury. Worked really well."
  • "These have helped greatly with pain from a heel spur while walking. Very durable, comfortable, pain relieving."
