Great for heels, elbows, good quality washed well size perfect for male that we ordered

Total lifesaver for me. I have a large open wound on my heel and this sock/padding enables me to be able to walk.

The idea for this is great. The performance is not so much.. I had ankle surgery on one ankle so I wore one of these once and I did not wear the other one at all. The one that I wore when I went to take it off, the foam was already tearing so I looked at the other one, turned it inside out so I could see and you can see the foam and it is very low quality so it’s already tearing where it’s sewn onto the sock. These socks are not going to last very long. I would estimate one or two wears and the pad is going to come loose. I can say, though I did get a refund from Amazon when I returned them for being defective or not working.

So you had me the first day but lost me ask that . Fit great not to tight just the right for my feet. The only down size in the cushion make it uncomfortable to wear shoe . Cushion nedd to be strong to help my heel but also comfortable to wear all day long.just a walk around the house item

I read in bed a lot, almost always lying on my left side with my head resting on my left hand, propped up on my elbow. A few months ago, I had been in bed basically the whole weekend and a day because I was home sick, so I spent a LOT of the time reading. My elbow skin had gotten irritated from the friction against the pillowcase I was using (cheap, kinda rough). I started putting lotion on it, and I switched back to a satin pillow case, but it just wasn’t getting better, and in fact it seemed to be getting worse! The skin was red, flakey, and kind of hard compared to the rest of the skin on my elbow. Warm, too. If the pad were a little thicker, I would have rated 5 stars, but it’s a little thin, and my elbows are bony.After several weeks of applying Aquaphor (my holy grail moisturizer) multiple times a day and getting no improvement to the hard patch of skin, and the soreness in my elbow continuing to get worse, I thought I might have more going on than just skin irritated by a pillowcase.Googled around for a bit and I was about 99% sure what I had was actually a level one pressure sore. The pillowcase irritating my skin didn’t help, but the main issue was the amount of continuous time I had been spending with my upper body weight all being on my left elbow. I also just turned 49, and I’ve really been noticing changes in my skin from age like loss of elasticity and my skin just starting to become thinner and more fragile all over, and I’ve got bony joints!I bought some pressure wound cream (WelmedIx fragile skin formula bought here based on reviews if anyone is dealing with something similar), but I also wanted something I could use as a preventative, because back injuries and 40+ years of habit have made reading in any other position uncomfortable, so I knew without changing that up, I probably had an excellent chance of giving myself one again.Saw these elbow pads, and honestly I think I bought this brand because it was the cheapest one I saw. I didn’t really care what it looked like as long as it worked, because I was only going to use it on my left elbow in bed while reading, but these are actually really cute! I might even wear these as a clothing accessory with some outfits. Looks like they would wash easily, too.Used them for the first time last night, and I could tell they were helping prevent those painful pressure points where my elbow is especially knobby. They were also really comfortable, so I actually fell asleep wearing them and they didn’t wake me up at all (and I’m like the damn Princess and the Pea when it comes to trying to sleep with something on like an eye mask - just CAN NOT do it.)I had also put my wound cream on last night before the pad, and the padding part is made of cotton, so it was the equivalent of moisturizing your hands and feet at night and then covering with cotton socks/gloves, and the next morning, my elbow had improved so much over the night from the cream/elbow pad combo. No pressure sore? Just use regular lotion lol.Are these the best? Doubtful, but they are perfectly adequate for my needs, and I’m very pleased! The padding isn’t that thick, but I’m resting on a pillow, anyway, so I only needed a little extra protection. I don’t remember if these came in sizes, but if you are on the larger side, these will probably be too tight. I included a pic of the brace on my arm, and idk if you can tell, but I’m like 5’5” and 125lbs, so my arms are fairly small, and these are ALMOST tight on me, especially on the upper arm band. But being that snug did keep it from moving in my sleep, and it wasn’t tight enough to bother me or leave marks in the morning (which as I mentioned before is kinda a small miracle).

A perfect solution for anyone that has to lie in a static position whether after surgery or regular use. So comfortable that I couldn't feel any pressure and so effective at keeping my heels from developing pressure wounds. What a simply wonderful product = great quality and not bulky.

I’d like to say when it was first delivered, and I put one on the problem ankle. It was OK however when it was washed cold water and not placed in the dryer, it was so tight I couldn’t reuse that particular one. So one time use or maybe purchase a larger size if that’s possible I thought one-size-fits-all. I might’ve read that wrong but I think it’s good for maybe a one time use

After elbow surgery, these are amazing and comfortable to help bumping screws/plates onto hard surfaces. Only improvement i would make is more neutral colors.
