When is the TIPS gel heel cushion useful and how is it used?
The TIPS gel heel cushion is a footwear accessory from the Croatian manufacturer TIPS of Split, which specialises in insoles and footwear accessories. It is made of soft, elastic gel and is placed in the shoe at the heel to make every step more comfortable.
According to the manufacturer, the cushion is transparent, light and very thin, so it fits all types of footwear, especially high-heeled shoes, where pressure on the heel and slipping of the foot are most pronounced. The gel relieves pressure on the heel, grips firmly and stops the foot from slipping in the shoe.
The cushion can be washed and reused, which makes it practical for everyday wear and for moving from one pair of shoes to another.

How to use
Place the cushion in the shoe at the heel so that the heel of the foot rests on the gel. The inside of the shoe should be clean and dry before fitting. When the cushion gets dirty, wash it, let it dry completely and put it back in the shoe.
Who is it for?
The cushion is intended for anyone who feels pressure on the heel during long periods of standing or walking, for people who wear high heels and for those whose foot slips in their shoes. It is also useful as extra cushioning in footwear with a hard inner sole.
Important notes
- The cushion is a comfort accessory, not a medical orthopaedic aid.
- With long-lasting or severe heel pain, seek advice from a doctor or physiatrist.
- People with diabetes and reduced sensation in the feet should check the skin of their feet regularly when wearing footwear accessories.
Pharmacist's advice:
A gel cushion helps most when the shoe is the right size – if the shoe is too small, an extra cushion can increase pressure on the toes. Before buying, consider whether you need relief at the heel or at the front of the foot, as there are separate gel products for the forefoot.
Heel pain that appears in the morning with the first steps or lasts for weeks is not just a question of shoe comfort – in that case see a doctor to find out the cause.
