How does the TIPS gel cushion help the foot in high heels and sandals?
TIPS gel foot cushions are a footwear accessory from the Split-based manufacturer TIPS, part of its Soft step range of shoe accessories. They are placed in the front part of the shoe, under the ball of the foot – the area of the sole just behind the toes that carries most of the body weight when walking in heels.
According to the manufacturer, the cushions are transparent, light and very thin, so they are not visible in open shoes. They relieve pressure on the foot, considerably reduce the transfer of impact from the shoe to the foot and stop the foot from sliding forward – a common problem in high-heeled shoes, where the weight shifts towards the toes.
The pack contains one pair for all sizes. The cushions are reusable and hand-washable, so they are easy to move from one pair of shoes to another.
Key benefits:
- Reduces impact transferred from the sole of the shoe to the forefoot.
- Stops the foot from sliding towards the front of the shoe.
- Transparent, light and very thin – suitable for sandals too.
- One pair fits all shoe sizes.
- Reusable; hand-washable in lukewarm water.

How to use
Before fitting, wipe the inside of the shoe so it is clean and dry. Place the cushion in the front part of the shoe so that it sits exactly under the ball of the foot, not under the toes, then put the shoe on and take a few steps to check the position.
When the cushion gets dirty, wash it by hand in lukewarm water with a mild detergent, rinse it and let it air-dry completely before putting it back into the shoe.
Who is it for?
The cushions are intended for women and men who wear higher-heeled shoes or sandals and feel pressure or burning in the forefoot after standing and walking for a long time. They are also useful when the foot slides forward in the shoe and the toes hit the front of the shoe.
Important notes
- The cushion is a comfort accessory for footwear, not an orthopaedic aid.
- If pain in the forefoot persists even outside high-heeled shoes, see a doctor or a physiatrist.
- People with diabetes and reduced sensation in their feet should check the skin at the contact area after wearing.
Pharmacist's advice:
A gel cushion works best in a shoe that fits the foot snugly. In a tight shoe it further reduces the room for the toes, so try the shoes with the cushion in the evening, when the feet are slightly swollen.
If in sandals you feel pressure at the heel rather than under the toes, a gel heel cushion is the better choice – the spot where you feel discomfort determines which gel accessory to pick.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

3. How are the cushions washed?
By hand, in lukewarm water with a mild detergent. After washing, let them dry completely and use them again.
4. Are they visible in open sandals?
