The 1st Lady Gel Velvety Insole I bought had cushion on the ball of the foot. This has cushion on the metatarsal area, but the name is the same. How?

There are several different styles of the pedage high heel insoles. These ones are great and they keep your foot from sliding forward. I just wish they weren't so pricey or could be moved from shoe to shoe instead of bring taped down. I'd love to have a pair in all my heels but $15 x 60 is a lot of dough

The manufacturer must have changed it, it's now an extremely inferior product now...

It looks like the product has changed since I bought it! The gel pad is in a new area, and I doubt it would help with anything in that area. I say look for another brand, I can't believe they changed it.

I believe these are called lady pedage and those ones are called queen Pedage.

Dr. Scholl's massaging sport insoles seemed to offer more cushion so they felt better (at least in the beginning). Airplus Ultra Work insoles were firmer and the fabric on top seemed to be more durable. So I think Airplus Ultra Work insoles probably last a little longer. Good luck!

No gel pad that I know of but I think I just saw somewhere recently where there is a different version of this for bare feet.

The gel areas are on the bottom, while the top surfaces are smooth. I'm not aware of them when I walk.

Nope, No gel padding fer the ball of the foot, still it is very comfortable.

First of all, if your mom has pain, she probably should see a podiatrist. She may have specific issues with her feet that call for orthotics, or other treatment. For maximum cushioning (which I desire, as I have back problems) I start with a good cushioning shoe like a New Balance. I then use *two* insoles, starting with the Spenco Polysorb Cross Trainer on the bottom and *this* sole (Syono Orthotics Gel) on top. The combination gives me maximum cushioning while adapting to my foot, and I can and do walk an average of 5 miles per day (fast exercise walk) with no problems.

packet of silica gel - they are found in the box when you purchase new shoes and also small packets are often put into prescription medications at your pharmacy. Do not open packet, simply place entire packet in salt box to keep humidity from clumping the salt (works for sugar as well)

they are more firm like rubber, they do not compress like memory foam, so you don't lose the lift that they give you,they just feel like part of the shoe insole

You would need their largest size which is 5. Amazon description lacks all of the details in order to size these properly. You may need to wear shoes one size larger in order to accomodate the insert into your shoes. These are pricey but great.

Similar concern here. Really feel the balls of my feet when I walk or stand for extended periods of time. These insoles help quite a bit. For the $$$, a good investment. Will it clear it up completely; no. But they will ad comfort for sure.

I work for Pedag USA in customer service.Main differences are:Lady Gel is hand washable, trimmable, and movable from shoe to shoe.Lady Gel has slightly less padding.Lady comes in black AND tan leather, Lady Gel surface is tan velour.Both are flexible enough to fit into any heel height. Lady Gel will take up less room in a tight shoe (however both are very low profile). Both are 3/4 length so they are great for open toes shoes.

It comes with the polyester foam liner that is shown. It also comes with a few small (2"x4") pads to tuck in where needed to fill in if your heel is smaller sized.

I don't really know. I ordered a big package of these because these are exactly what my foot doctor used for my metatarsal. Don't use anything when it comes to your feet that it is not intended for. There are inside foot pads that are longer to accommodate your arch area.

It's actually memory foam. Not gel. Maybe about 1/4 inch thick. Feels good on my feet.

It's not hard plastic; it's soft,but not gel soft; keeps it's shape; it depends on the width of the shoe heel; you need to account for the thickness of the cup. The heel cup is different from a heel cushion; if you only want comfort for the soles of your feet, don't get a heel cup.

Sorry, this not gel, it has a leather covering. It helps the met but I think you would need even more support if it is dislocated. Find a good foot doc. it will be worth it, we only have one set of feet. Got to take good care of them.

The insole is made of foam. While the arch is firmer than a lot of inserts you buy at a store, it still has some give to it. So it is not rigid in my opinion. I have high arches and this has been the best support for my foot with exception to custom orthotics from the doctor which are truly rigid.
