Yoga Toes: Are you glad you bought them?

I've had on and off interest in Yoga Toes since I first read about them here several years ago. As my feet are feeling their age, I just might be ready to pull the trigger. How have they helped you? Thanks!

Regarding sizing: I have a narrow foot, size 9.5 or 10, depending on the shoe. Do you think a size small would be the right choice for me?

I need to get them out, I fell off using them. They feel so good!

I wear a 10 because of all the damage in my foot joints, so I got a size large. It is still snug.

Thanks, Pat! Do you have the original Yoga Toes or the Gems?

For those considering them, they are 20% off on their website now through December 25th.

I bought a knock off brand on Amazon. I too need to remember to use these. I think they help a lot with alignment. They seem to really be effective with reducing foot pain.

I use these Joya Toes spreaders.

To me they seemed less cumbersome than Yoga Toes.

I like them a lot; they make my feet feel good.

I meant to write that I fell off using them, not that I "feel off" when using them.

Susan H - I have the Gems. The little knobby things make it easier to pull between my funny toes.

I'm another who has fallen off using them but they are great. I have all sorts of minor foot issues and when I wear them regularly, my feet and lower legs feel better.

Yes they are great & I’m another who got away from using them. So I’m going to give them a nice clean up and start using them again tonight. Thanks for the reminder!

I bought Denada dance toe stretchers based on a recommendation from someone here and love them.I use them while I polish my toes or resting.

You would not think they'd make a difference but they do!

They feel odd at first. I had to build up to wearing them longer than 10 minutes.
