Hi, Varalakshmi. Thank you for your comment. Can you please clarify what you're asking here?

Hi, Patricija. Thank you for your comment. Most shoe-wearing people are in the same boat, unfortunately, when it comes to the appearance of their 4th and 5th toes. The good news is that Correct Toes was designed to help address this very problem. Combining the toe spacers with footwear that possesses a sufficiently wide toe box can be very helpful in restoring optimal foot function and toe alignment. You can find Correct Toes here: naturalfootgear.com/collections/correct-toes And you can find compatible footwear here: naturalfootgear.com/collections/womens-shoes We hope this info helps! Please let us know if you have any follow-up questions.

@@NaturalFootgear Alright, thank you for answering

You're welcome!

Hi, namita. You can purchase the toe spacers (toe slots) here: naturalfootgear.com/collections/correct-toes. Also, we recommend that you sign up for our free 12-part Correct Toes e-course here to learn how to get the very most out of the device: naturalfootgear.com/pages/do-you-want-to-learn-more-about-correct-toes-toe-spacers? Please just let us know if you have any other questions!

Hi, namita. Thank you for your comment. You can purchase toe socks online here: naturalfootgear.com/collections/toe-socks. You might consider trying a different kind of toe spacer to achieve the results you're hoping for. We prefer Correct Toes, which is made of medical-grade silicone and strikes the perfect balance between softness and rigidity. You can find Correct Toes here: naturalfootgear.com/collections/correct-toes. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to assist!

Thank you for your comment, emilia. We will certainly consider your request.

Hi, Gene. Thank you for your question. We recommend that your wife schedule a remote consultation with the foot care team at Northwest Foot & Ankle (this is the podiatry clinic of Dr. Ray McClanahan, the inventor of Correct Toes toe spacers): www.nwfootankle.com/remote-consultations. This can be a great option for receiving personalized foot care and guidance. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to assist!

That's fantastic to hear, Gene! Using minimalist footwear, such as the Z-Trails, is an excellent way to recruit foot muscles and build overall foot strength. We hope you continue to see gains in foot function and strength over the coming months!

Excellent question, Taifuun! In most cases, it's not at all too late. In fact, most people in their twenties are in an _excellent_ position to correct most types of crooked toe and restore optimal toe alignment. The sooner you can start, the better the results you will have. At least, that's been our experience. Please let us know if you have any other questions we can assist with!

We're sorry to hear that, Andrew! We recommend that individuals who have relatively wide feet remove the included (optional) insoles that come with the shoes to help open up maximum space for the feet. This can make a big difference in some cases. In our experience, though, we've found that most people can comfortably wear Correct Toes inside both the Lems Primal 2 shoe and the Lems Chukka boot. You might consider trying Ahinsa shoes, which have one of the widest toe boxes available: naturalfootgear.com/collections/mens-ahinsa-shoes. All the best to you!

We're so glad to hear it, Madison Heights! That's excellent news. Most people who try Correct Toes and healthy-foot-shaped footwear usually never return to wearing conventional shoes, as it just feels wrong to try to make the foot conform to the shoe, instead of the other way around. Anyhow, thank you for sharing your perspective and experience thus far!

Hi, louloubi. Thank you for your comment and question. It sounds like there is indeed still a good opportunity there to restore toe alignment, and so you might consider giving Correct Toes a go. Please don't hesitate to reach out again with any additional questions!

Have you tried Correct Toes yet, Tayanese? There are some additional approaches/strategies mentioned in this article: naturalfootgear.com/blogs/educational-articles/crooked-toes. Please let us know if you have any questions we can assist with!

That's great to hear, Cricket!

Great question, steven. Yes, you can use Pedag metatarsal pads when you're weightlifting.

Hi, Vempaty. Thank you for your question. You can purchase your Correct Toes toe spacers online here: naturalfootgear.com/collections/correct-toes. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

Hi, cheesy cheto. You certainly could visit a podiatrist or other foot care professional in your area for guidance on how to address your curly toe, though you're unlikely to be offered natural alternatives to conventional crooked toe treatments. You might consider scheduling a remote consultation with the foot care team at Northwest Foot & Ankle (which is the clinic of Correct Toes creator Dr. Ray McClanahan): www.nwfootankle.com/remote-consultations We hope this info helps!

We're sorry to hear that Requiem. What shoes do you typically wear?

Great question, Michiel. And the answer is: It depends on what you're trying to achieve. For those who are looking to address foot pain or discomfort, the pads can be helpful pretty much right away, especially if they are incorporated into a comprehensive natural approach to foot care, which is discussed in more detail here: naturalfootgear.com/blogs/educational-articles/10-best-natural-foot-health-tools-tips. For promoting structural changes in the foot (e.g., to help straighten a hammertoe), it's going to require a longer period of use (months, or in severe cases, years). Just as most foot problems took a long time to develop, so too does it take some time to successfully rehabilitate the feet. I hope this info helps!

Hi, Kendra. Great question. Wearing Correct Toes should not cause any discomfort (if it does, that's an indication to back off the wear-time a bit), but it's important to start in with wearing the device gradually. We usually recommend 30 minutes of wear-time per day initially, and then slowly adding more time over the following weeks. Most people find that they can ultimately work their way up to using the device for most of the day. We hope this info helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions.

@@NaturalFootgear Thanks so much! I'm going to order some now ☺️

You're very welcome, Kendra!

Hi, John. Thank you for your question. You can visit this page to order your pedals: naturalfootgear.com/products/pedaling-innovations-catalyst-pedals. Let us know if you have any other questions!

Thank you for your question, IamMissieMarie! Correct Toes is indeed designed to address bunionettes. You can learn a bit more about the approach in this video: naturalfootgear.com/blogs/educational-articles/bunionettes-conventional-vs-natural-approaches. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

Hi, Yair Yair. Thank you for your question. In our experience, we've found Correct Toes toe spacers to be quite helpful in addressing mallet toe (and other types of crooked toe). We recommend that you check out this video from our site that explores conventional vs. natural approaches to all kinds of crooked toe problems: naturalfootgear.com/blogs/educational-articles/crooked-overlapping-toes-conventional-vs-natural-approaches.

Thank you for your comment, leroy!

We couldn't agree more, ruben cohen! Keep on rocking those Xero sandals!

You're welcome, Gopal Manna!

We're glad the video was helpful, Madison Heights! Feel free to email us if you have any additional questions about Correct Toes and how to get the most out of the device: naturalfootgear.com/pages/contact.

Thank you for your comment, Garfield all Day! We often take our bodies for granted, so good for you for becoming more aware of your feet and how they function. For foot stimulation and self-myofascial release, a lot of people are loving the Naboso Neuro Ball, a really cool little product that packs a big punch: naturalfootgear.com/products/naboso-neuro-ball. Just a thought!

Passive toe deformities like what you described often are! Sometimes they remain this way, other times pain or discomfort develops over time. In general, we always feel that it's best to address an underlying problem before other issues crop up (for alignment, circulation, and biomechanical considerations, if nothing else), but it's certainly true that you can go for quite a while without experiencing any crooked toe-related pain.

Good question, samuel. The traction aids really do work best in snowy/icy conditions, and the traction pins built into the product are quite sharp-so, we're not sure that these would translate well to the soccer pitch (unless you intend to be the meanest slide tackler out there ;-))

@@NaturalFootgear Ok, I think i get this/understand. They might just cut through grass basically? I was just trying to find some good minimalist/wide toe cleat-like shoes at this time, now however not really looking. I think I may've found a pair that might work ok, have a bit of traction(if interested i can give the name/brand), but they cost a lot lol, and I'm not really doing that sport thing I was previously trying to get some shoes for. Thanks for replying tho :) God bless 🌿✝

You're very welcome, samuel! Feel free to email over the info about that brand/model you found and we can share some thoughts on it with you from a foot health perspective. | naturalfootgear.com/pages/contact

Thank you for your comment and questions, zєяυ. Overlapping toe is quite common in our society, and though it may be a bit unsettling in appearance, it can usually be addressed through natural, noninvasive approaches, the likes of which are demonstrated in this video: naturalfootgear.com/blogs/educational-articles/crooked-overlapping-toes-conventional-vs-natural-approaches. Take a look at the video and let us know if you have any additional questions!

@@NaturalFootgear I see. Thank you for answering!

You're very welcome!

Hi, thomas m. We wish that for you too! Please let us know if you have any questions we can address.

Hi, Jeanne. Thank you for your comment. And thank you for your interest in Correct Toes! You actually _can_ wear the spacers in combination with most types of sandals. This video demonstrates how to use the spacers with thong sandals and flip flops: naturalfootgear.com/blogs/educational-articles/how-to-use-correct-toes-with-thong-sandals-flip-flops.

It can be so therapeutic!

Yes, dear @@NaturalFootgear... See here only 125 reasons to go barefoot: ~ www.barefootkc.com/benefits.html

An awesome list!

Oh no! Hopefully not.

You're welcome, Nick Z!

Thank you for your question, Faithful One. Having a stable and level support surface (something that Correct Toes helps enable in your feet) is vitally important to the proper health and functioning of your musculoskeletal system. Correct Toes alone isn't going to correct a scoliotic curve, but it will help with proper bone, joint, and soft tissue alignment throughout the body.

Hi, anagha. Correct Toes toe spacers are $65 (for a pair) and can be purchased here: naturalfootgear.com/collections/correct-toes.

Hi, Maryann. Great question; thank you for posing it. Yes, indeed, Correct Toes can accommodate syndactyly, and this video demonstrates how: naturalfootgear.com/blogs/educational-articles/how-to-customize-correct-toes. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

Thank you, Jesus! You take care too.

Thank you for your comments, Jesus! We agree that Luna sandals are fantastic-a great all-around option for active outdoor pursuits.

Correct Toes is available for purchase here: naturalfootgear.com/collections/correct-toes.

Thank you for your question S.s. Correct Toes is designed to realign the big toe and correct hallux valgus, in addition to addressing a wide variety of crooked toes (things such as hammertoes, mallet toe, curly toe, etc.). You can read a bit more about hallux valgus and bunions (as well as natural approaches to fixing them) here: naturalfootgear.com/blogs/educational-articles/bunions-heredity.

We're sorry to hear about your crooked toes, preciouss! Younger people are actually at an advantage in terms of being able to straighten crooked toes, so that's a positive. You might consider watching this video with your parents to get a better sense of what can be done to help out: naturalfootgear.com/blogs/educational-articles/crooked-overlapping-toes-conventional-vs-natural-approaches.

Yesss me too

Greetings, Tianna. Are you saying that there is _too much_ space between some of your toes?

What you're describing is actually pretty common, The Manga. The good news is that, for most people, it's possible to rehabilitate and realign many types of crooked toe. Let us know if you have any questions!

Hi, Harries Stiles.

Hi, Johnny. The toe box width on a pair of Lems Primal 2 shoes in men's US size 11 is ~11cm at the widest point. We hope this info helps!

You might also be interested in checking out our in-depth review of the Lems Primal 2 here: naturalfootgear.com/blogs/shoe-footgear-reviews/lems-primal-2-shoe-review.

Thank you for your comment, Lei. Sometimes these painless passive toe deformities become painful over time, and sometimes they do not. Our general view is that it's best to proactively address any type of crooked toe to avoid potential problems down the line. We've got a lot of resources on our site dedicated to addressing crooked toes, including this video: naturalfootgear.com/blogs/educational-articles/crooked-overlapping-toes-conventional-vs-natural-approaches.
