Leather Heel Grips Liner Cushion Inserts for Shoes Too Big,Heel Pads for Heel Pain,Improved Shoe Fit and Comfort,8 Pairs Khaki 0.35 inch Thick

met my expectations

I love them. They are a great cushion for the heel. It helps me keep my shoe on my slightly smaller foot.

Holding up well after a lengthly period of intermittent use. Not wearing these shoes everyday but no defects after many months of occasional use (I wear these shoes once a week or so).

Serves its purpose initially, but it compresses very fast and gets too thin to work.

Helps me avoid getting sores

This would actually be a useful product if the smell wasn't so bad, and so strong. I feel like people can smell the shoe inserts when I am simply near them. Certainly I can smell them.No shoe insert has super-strong adhesion. For that you need to first try them with the adhesion, then once you are satisfied with the positioning, use super-glue to keep them permanently attached. This product should be good because it uses leather, but they must have used some cheap chemical process to make the leather, because it stinks - literally.Update - I originally rated this 1 star. I've now upgraded it to three stars, because the smell diminished over time (a long time) and I super glued them into some D-width shoes to make them closer to my B-width (I put a pair in each show on the two sides near the heel). These seem to have improved the fit, and the leather should last. I still wish they didn't start with that bad smell, but I guess they'd cost more if they used a better curing process.

Used these in a pair of slip on Vans type shoes. They did not stay put. I used both pairs trying . Not to be used with slip on shoes.

Definitely cushions but did not make my too-big shoes wearable. I wear an 11.5 and those are usually unavailable so I have to go up to 12. I was hoping that these would allow me to keep some cute flats but alas they still slipped off my feet and had to be sent back. Note: I had a hard time getting the sticky residue of the shoe when I removed them. On a positive note, they were super cushiony and I ended up adding them to a different pair of shoes for that purpose.
