My little toe is surgically attached to the next toe (childhood fix for a foot deformity)... can these be cut to eliminate the little toe section?

They're made out of a medical grade gel that's fairly easy to cut through. You should have no problem modifying these.

Yes, you can cut them easily. Having said that, honestly, I would not recommend spending 40 bucks on something like this unless your Doctor told you to. I bought them without consulting my Doctor and regretted it. Judy Smith

Hi there! You could easily cut through the silicone to eliminate the little toe section. I think you could probably get through it with scissors, and if not, try an exacto blade.

I don't remember for sure, but I think mine had a little loose 'tail' sticking out. But...you don't need that. You can just loosen a piece with your fingers and cut...it doesn't really make a difference, except that you may end up with a short piece eventually.

They should be easy to trim with a pair sharp zissors as they are made of thin material as described. I know I could trim them. They are not hard plastic like inserts you would get from a podiatrist. They are flexible so I would try them in the shoes first by leaving the bottom paper on so they don't stick to the shoe. You might be surprise at how well they fit the shoe for an in-between size.

I didn't like these toe loops and ended up buyng another kind on Amazon, a pack of 6 that are longer and do not connect to each other. They do not train your toes to their original position--they just keep them from rubbing against each other and also keep the toe from rubbing against the top inside part of the shoe. I have hammertoe that involves only the 2nd toe and I find the ones I have now to help keep this toe comfortable. Surgery is the only correction for it, according to my Dr., but I am not ready for that!

I wouldn't cut them. They are thin, but are shaped to support your foot. They do a very good job and are worth the money even if you need to buy two pairs.

You shouldn't need to cut. They are partial length (to where the ball of my foot meets my toes) on a size 7.

Three in a package and I really like them. My podiatrist cut the tendon of my middle toe after my initial surgery so that the toe would not force the second toe over. Unfortunately, now my tendonless toe goes wherever it wants while I sleep and it hurts. I strap my bad to to a stable one and it solves my nighttime toe pain.

Hi. =) They aren't meant to be removed. These are practice wheels for practicing nail art or doing swatches of nail polish. They're not for wearing. You can remove the flexible white plastic type easily but the clear plastic are hard. All of the nails are the same size so even if you wanted to you couldn't wear them. I hope this helps!

I think there is another brand that might work better for little toes. I don't remember the name though, sorry. But it is one I gave a negative review to... ;) Keep searching, you may find one. Eventually everything ends up on Amazon!

Hi Jeannie.I didn't have to cut mine.I placed it first on the heal and then push the rest in.It lays half way in to the shoe. Hope that helps u

If you have small hands and feet you probably could, but your thumbs may not cure properly. It is suggested that you do thumbs seperately to ensure a proper cure. I have not done my feet with the kit yet so I cannot tell you how well all of your toes will cure.

My guess would be yes. I had difficulty keeping them on my fourth and fifth toe.

No. If you have a problem you can cut them off. However, you probably will have to remove outer pants and shoes in order to put a clean pair on.

The feet are fused together about 1/2 way down the foot then the toes are seperate on mine.

Yes, there is a pattern provided so you can cut to your shoe size. Be aware they are thick, about a quarter of an inch.

It is not to be used to cut your toes, but rather your toe nails. I'm over 80 and the opening is too small for my toe nails.

As is, I think it would be too large for a 5 yr old child. I am wary of cutting or trying to reshape it. I would think a pediatrician or podiatrist would be able to procure something appropriate.
