    While definitely more effective barefoot, they can be worn in shoes with a wide enough toe box.
    If you can afford Vivobarefoot, you can afford SoftStar Shoes. The Softstar Rogue or any of their "Primal" sole shaped shoes have a lot more toe width. I have the Softstar Rogue in a wide width and have no problem wearing toe spacers in them while still having plenty of ability to flex and move.

    Does it help with Morton’s neuroma?

      I've seen and heard in many places that it does. The Northwest Foot & Ankle youtube channel (Dr. Ray McClanahan) would be a good source to start looking. He is a natural sports podiatrist who originated the CorrectToes spacers.

    Confusing video, the demo item doesnt match the product. Mine has elastic around the baby toe, too. My little toe is too tiny to fit properly. The elastic around it is actually bending the little toe.

      You can either buy 4 spaces or 5 spaces. Looks like you bought the 5 spaces (I have the same)
      How is it bending your little toe? Make sure the curvy side is facing your main body of the foot. Not towards the tip of the toes.

    And someone else says you have to wear it in completely the other way. th-cam.com/video/w7aoeE0zm6o/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared&t=46

      This video is directly from the manufacturer.

      @@vincentlangel8555 Even if this company manufactures them, they did not originate this design/style of toe spacer. You can find ones that are essentially identical sold by many companies.
      The way this video shows to put them on is exactly opposite to what makes sense with physics.

    I do not agree with the way this video shows to put these on. Here's why: it bends them against the curve of their shape, stretching out that shorter side, and stretching creates tension; you are effectively putting an elastic band around the ends of your toes. Exactly opposite to the purpose of helping them splay.
    This type of spacer is so obviously designed with a curved shape that matches the natural 'fan' of the foot & toes. Putting them on in opposition to that stretches out the short side and bunches up the webbed sections between the spacer pads. It simply can't be the way they were designed to be used. All that over-stretching and bunching probably causes them to wear out sooner, too.
