Users who need a low-profile, latex-free heel sleeve that fits inside most footwear without adding bulk will find the slim construction practical for daily wear.
How does the gel pad protect the heel?
The integrated gel pad is positioned at the posterior heel, creating a cushioned barrier between the skin and the shoe's heel counter. This absorbs friction and distributes pressure away from the heel during walking and activity.
Will this sleeve fit inside tight-fitting footwear?
Yes. The slim, low-profile design is intended to fit inside most standard footwear, including athletic shoes, boots, and dress shoes, without adding noticeable bulk or altering the fit of the shoe.
Is this sleeve latex-free?
Yes. The Pedifix Achilles Heel Protection Sleeve is made from latex-free materials.
How do I care for this sleeve?
Hand wash with mild soap and warm water and allow to air dry completely before reuse. Do not machine wash or place in a dryer, as heat may damage the gel pad.
