Customer Rating: Summary: Nice product but exorbitantly overpriced Comment: For the last 2 years, I have steadily been healing a bunion by using pedicure toe separators - the foam ones the salon puts between your toes when they polish them. I would also put a makeup sponge between my big toe and the one next to it. This has been working really well for me, and my bunion is vanishing. (My bunion was caused by pointy-toed shoes.) The pedicure toe separators cost only about a dollar for a pair of them.
Well, I've been making such great progress with my healing that I decided to up the ante and try something made more specifically for my purpose. So I decided to try Yoga Toes.
Well, they do separate my toes. The space between each toe on the Yoga Toes is wider than that on the pedicure separator, which gives my foot more of a stretch, and that's probably not a bad thing. However, considering that the Yoga Toes are priced at $80 per pair, they're not enough better than the pedicure toe separator to justify the exorbitantly higher price. I could get an equally good stretch for a much lower price by using cheap cosmetic sponges between each toe.
I wish I hadn't bought the Yoga Toes. Yes, they do what they are intended to do, and they'll be beneficial for people like me whose bunions were caused by pointy-toed shoes. However, a $1 product from my local drugstore has proven to do everything they do, and for a lot less money.
Their marketing propaganda claims that they're good for hammer toes. I don't see how they could be - they don't do anything to elongate the toe. If hammer toes are your issue, I suggest trying something else.
