Dr. Frederick's OriginalMoisturizing Gel Socks - 4 Pieces - Prevents Dry Cracked Heels & Cracked Feet - Day & Night Socks - W4-10 | M5-8

Fit well, cushion well. Stay in place! Easy to wash. Perfect for slip on shoes or for walking around the house in socks especially on hardwood flooring. Bonus if you add a small amount of lotion before putting them on, the silicon helps to soften the bottom of your feet especially the heel area.

This is one of the worst purchases I’ve made in a long time. Here’s why:1. The silicone is very very stretchy and thin making it impossible to get the socks to stay on without socks. If you’re thinking “kitchen silicone like ice trays” are made of, think again. This is more like thin flimsy silicone that you could stretch over a bowl.2. Even if you put on socks, the silicone slides around making waking treacherous. I can’t imagine sliding around in a pair of shoes on top of that making the “for work” or “for play” part of the advertising substantially misleading.3. Despite the stretchy, slippery silicone — the toe space for all of your little piggies is too small. Only the big toe seems about right.4. The depth of the heel is so slender that it probably won’t stay on unless you have a really short heel. It certainly doesn’t got me, even with socks, so by morning, it’s all wadded up in my instep.5. While these say “washable and reusable”, they’re also “biodegradable” and oh boy do they degrade quickly.Really disappointing.For reference: I have a size 9.5-10 foot, and you would think if anything, these would be too tight. Not so. They are completely loosey-goosey.

These work great with socks for sleeping! The moisturizer provides significant softening on my feet. But, they don’t work well with socks & shoes because they are thick & the moisturizer is too slippery for walking. I’ll definitely continue to use them for sleep.

Not entirely thrilled with this product. The silicone socks are a bit large on me (women’s size 8). It might be nice to offer two different size ranges. When I tried to put socks on over these, the silicone socks got all bunched up or fell off my heel and I had to keep readjusting. The divider between the big toe and the rest of the toes broke on all four silicone socks after the first use.I do notice softer heels and feet after one week of use, so that’s a plus. I’ll be looking for other brands, because I’m happy with the results but not happy with the loose fitting of these silicone socks.

Use your own moistureor 100% natural oils to correct the dry skin problem.Mfrs are notorious for using propylene glycol.which draws moisture from your body to itself..(used in sour candies, too. That's why your mouth waters & 10min later you have dry mouth. same results on skin.. ) maybe a temp fix but once there's no moisture left in the deep layers of your skin for the PG to draw from you use more as an artifical moisture layer...and then you buy more right? Sneaky..Love that they hug your feet comfortably with sandals, slippers & barefoot. Wearing them with heels or shoes that cannot breathe obviously will result in clammy/wet feet & slip around.For those complaining about sweating you must have missed the100 air holes in the socks and should have been your first clue not to cover these vents. Ppl these are silicone and the holes allow your skin to prespire.Downtime/sleep use works perfect. They definitely hold enough moisture and soften the dry calloused cracked skin that can be immediately removed with a scraper easily. NEVER FILE callouses... your skins defense excellarates more callous growth to protect itself.. Before long you skin will be covered in what feels like hard plastic that snaps under pressure then bleeds... ouchies.

These just keep slipping off with cream, especially in the back/heel portion. The front isn't that comfortable and I'm worried the slender strip between the big toe and other toes will tear if I pull it too much. So basically, it doesn't work.It seems like this brand has done this, toe-only cap, and heel-only silicone 'socks' for cream application and I don't understand why they don't go all the way and create COMPLETE silicone socks that cover your toes, heels and arch. I tried all three and the only one that works is the heel one because it has a strap that keeps it securely in place. As it is, I have to purchase the Chinese made stuff Amazon keeps pushing into our faces, since they're the ones who had the forethought to do complete 'socks' of this material. Ugh.

Good to wear with boots.

Used this as intended. I had some foot cream on and it made the gel socks very slippery. My feet kept slipping to the front of the sock and this became really uncomfortable. During one of the slips, the barrier in the toe area split and so my foot could almost just slide out of the front. Threw away the damaged pair and the additional one. I'll look for something better.
