What causes it
- High-impact sports such as running, tennis and basketball
- Thin-soled or high-heeled shoes
- Calluses under the forefoot
- Common forefoot problems such as Morton’s neuroma
How Bunga Pads help
A soft fabric sleeve holds a gel pad under the ball of the foot. It cushions every step without needing adhesive and moves with your foot.
Tips for the best fit
- Place the gel just behind the toes, under the ball of the foot.
- Choose the thinner Diminutive pad for tight shoes and skates.
- The Foot Pouch covers the whole forefoot for skaters and dancers.
