PedifixArch Bandage, Small

I wished I’d bought these sooner. The support is excellent. I’m on my feet 12 hours a day and these stopped the swelling. My arches and metatarsals aren’t sore at the end of the day any longer. I purchased these in Small. For reference, I wear a women’s sz 4.5 / 5 in shoes. Most arch bands were too large and I’m ecstatic that these actually fit. The compression is very firm. Almost too firm around the 4 - 5th hour. I may try the next size up for less compression or wear over socks instead. I highly recommend to everyone suffering from arch pain and swelling. The quality seems excellent. I’ve worn these for a week straight and the shape and compression has held up.

I bought them for arch support and they worked out really well. I would purchase them again

Walking home from the market, I heard a funny noise. With each step, a crunch sound was coming from my feet! So strange as I didn’t feel anything, step on anything, have anything stuck to my shoe, or see anything wrong with them. Little did I know what happened until I tried to stand up to get out of bed the next morning! I could not put my weight on my feet. The pain was excruciating! I struggled until I could actually take a few steps. Fortunately, I did my research and found these supports. They slip right on, give proper support in the right place, and allow you to wear all of your own shoes! It’s a miracle as shortly thereafter, I danced the night away at my son’s wedding with no problem!

Be careful of sizing. I have wide feet and this was too large. It slid around on my arch

Tried a handful of other PF products - sleeping ones were either really hot, made my toes numb, or were impossible to sleep in. Other socks were too constricting or weirdly sized, the bandages with the gel insert were too lumpy and slid around...nothing worked. I wanted some support with a lighter feel that would work both in sneakers and flip flops and be comfortable enough for daily use...this seemed to be that. However:THE GOOD: It's very thin, fits with all shoes, doesn't take up much space, is comfortable (even though it feels stiff, it breaks in and it really does not irritate the skin at all, and I'm sensitive to these things.) Gives gentle compression so a lot better than nothing and is easy to wear/take on and off/clean.THE BAD: First, its about 6 shades darker than the photo. Very, very very tan - like one of those vintagey cloth material band aids - as someone else put it. Ridiculous - they should have 5 shades at least to choose from. The main reason I picked this one was due to the color in the photo, a pretty neutral light nude, which this is NOT.Also - too big based on their own sizing, chose the Medium which was at the max .5 smaller than my measurement and it is still slipping around/down. I'm thinking the small might be too small, at least until it breaks in, and there's nothing worse than something too small on your foot. Again they should have 5 sizes at least as this really needs to fit more accurately to not hurt but still give enough compression and stay in place. After walking 2 blocks this slides down to my toes - awkward! (Inside sneakers this would be easier but for anyone with more open shoes, it really has to fit perfectly.)I emailed the company with my concerns/questions and will update if I get/don't get a response...however, until they made 5 sizes / 5 shades or something along those lines, unless you're lucky enough to have the perfect size and shade to fit what's made its a toss up whether this will workFair price, great concept, and something that you can wear with just about all shoes but has to fit and look right to be a truly effective/good product...I attached a picture of what I got vs. the photo for color. Also, the white seam part does not have the Pedifix red logo either - strange.

i have probably a dozen similar arch compression/support sleeves from a bunch of different brands and they're all size Medium. the products sold as "one size fits all" are way too small for my Flintstone Feets. i found a size chart for these, somewhere, and it is a little different so i ordered a Medium and a Large. the Large from these sleeves fits a little looser than the Mediums from other places but not as big as the Large from other brands. so if you've tried other similar products and the sizes don't work well, maybe try these? also these seem to be made of different materials. they are so incredibly stiff, when i first took them out of the package i thought they felt like cardboard. they do stretch, and in fact seem stretchier than other similar foot sleeves i've tried. maybe a gentler type of stretch, even? so while i haven't yet tried on the size Medium ones i ordered, i expect they'll be a bit tighter than that size from other brands but not unwearable.

Good product and great delivery time

I love everything about these snd they give my fallen arches the support they need.
