We all know that having comfortable feet goes a long way towards enjoying life to the full – be it walking all day or dancing all night! The balls of the feet in particular can burn by the end of the day (or night!).
The heel of the foot bears 2/3rd the weight of your body and the ball of your foot bears the remaining 1/3rd. However when high heels are worn this is reversed. On top of that it is a fact that as you age the cushioning fat on the sole of your foot becomes thinner. It therefore makes sense to give as much protection to these areas as possible. Back2toes has been working with the company Juicy Girl to produce specialist padded footlets that fit over your toes to protect the ball of your foot and yet are unobtrusive and slim enough to fit inside your shoes. These footlet products are designed to stay on your foot not on your shoe, unlike those sticky little gel pads that seem to slip out of the side of your shoe after a while. There are two designs and two colours:

JG 600 PADDED FOOTLET

- footlet fits over the toes
- sheer fabric for breathability
- 3mm foam padding underneath to cushion the ball of the foot
- 60% cotton to keep you cool
- suits sandals and strappy shoes
- one size fits all
- has a non-slip sole to reduce slippage within your shoe
- available in nude and black

- £2.00 per pair

JG 598 PADDED FOOTLET WITH SLING
- footlet fits over the toes
- sheer fabric for breathability
- dainty sling slips around your heel for extra security
- 3mm foam padding underneath to cushion the ball of the foot
- 40% cotton to keep you cool
- suits trainers and court shoes
- one size fits all
- available in nude and black

- £3.00 per pair

Back2toes is currently working with the Juicy Girl design team to develop Biogel footlet products to sit alongside the above foam footlets. These will be slightly thicker but offer even more shock absorption. Biogel is at the forefront of technology in this area and these products will be only available from Back2toes! We have been weartrialling TPR gel footlets (see below) over the last 6 months - thankyou to everyone who has helped.

 TPR Gel footlets, some are "flip-flop" design

I saw these pretty hand fans seven years ago in Kuala Lumpur and could not resist buying one. Mine is still going strong today and often I am asked where I bought it from. I have at last been able to track down the supplier who agreed to make some especially for Back2toes! They are completely made from bamboo – even the paper is made from bamboo leaf fibre. The tulip shape is traditionally used for dancers’ fans! Because the fans are hand-made, each one is unique. Choose from a variety of colours.

Biofreeze is a specialist product generally used in the treatment of sports injuries due to its instant cooling effect on contact with skin. Cold therapy is a proven method of treating minor injuries and encouraging the healing process.

Back2toes routinely uses Biofreeze in the clinic and due to demand has decided to make it available to our clients:
