Gel Toe Spacer/spreader

Q: Q: How long with the spacer last?

A:The gel is very durable and is expected to last several months , perhaps years depending on usage and care.

Q: Q: Can the spacer be trimmed?

A: Yes the pad can be trimmed with scissors for a more precise fit.

Q: Q: How can this spacer help a bunion?

A: If the bunion is flexible and the big toe can easily manipulated into a straight position, a spacer will put the joint into a more normal position . Therefore the bump of the bunion is lessened because the bone is not getting pushed outward anymore by the big toe.

Product variants

Gel spacers help reduce irritation between adjacent, overlapping, or crowded toes.

The bigger sized gel toe spacer/toe spreaders are used as an interdigital wedge for a bunion deformity. This helps align and straighten the big toe, helping it function better—which in turn reduces the bunion prominence and decreases pressure here.

Due to their soft, conforming properties, these spreaders are extremely comfortable. The gel material will outlast similar products made from felt or foam.

Mainly used to separate the big toe from the 2nd toe, but any size of gel spacer can help with overlapping toes, toe drift, or crooked toes that rub. It can be trimmed with scissors to provide a more customized fit.
