The best foot pads can improve your foot function, rehabilitate your foot, and reduce your
foot pain. Not all foot pads are created equal, however; pads that immobilize your feet,
holding them rigidly in place, can have detrimental effects on your feet and can unfavorably
alter the structural arrangement and tone of your foot tissues. Consider choosing foot pads
that are flexible, affordable, and support your foot in jordan shoes a natural way.
Metatarsal Pads
According to Dr. Phyllis A. Ragley, a podiatrist and a Fellow of the American Society of
Podiatric Surgeons, metatarsal pads are sometimes used to treat metatarsalgia, a general
term that refers to any painful foot condition affecting your foot’s metatarsal region. Dr. Ray
McClanahan, a Portland, Oregon-based sports podiatrist and a leader in the field of conservative foot care, suggests
that the benefits of using a metatarsal pad arejordan shoes manifold.
According to Dr. McClanahan, metatarsal pads help spread your foot’s transverse arch and forefoot,

chronically-extended toes, and encourage the return of your forefoot fat pad to a place that supports the heads of your metatarsal
bones.
Dr. McClanahan believes that the wearing of conventional shoes—shoes with elevated heels, tapering
toe boxes, and built-in toe spring—contributes to foot deformities, such as extended toes and a forward displacement of the fat pad that usually
resides under your forefoot, supporting your metatarsal bones at the point where they contact the ground.
Toe Spreading Padsjordan shoes (Correct Toes)
According to Dr. McClanahan, your feet should be their widest at the ends of your toes, not
at the ball of your foot; something not commonly seen in shoe-wearing westerners. In people
who have gone barefoot or who have worn minimalist footwear most of their lives—which is
common in many parts of the world, including Africa, Asia, and South and Central America—their feet are widest at the ends of their toes, and their toes are evenly spaced and splayed widely; a foot structure
similar to that of newborns, who haven’t yet had their feet molded and sculpted by shoes featuring tapering toe
boxes and other problematic designjordan shoes features.
To combat the deforming effects of conventional footwear, Dr. McClanahan recommends you use
toe spreading pads (Correct Toes) between your toes, especially between your big toe and
your second toe, to help re-approximate your toes to the position that nature intended.
Dr. McClanahan contends that re-approximating your big toe, so that it’s in line with the inside
edge of your foot, helps you avoid a host of lower limb, ankle, and foot conditions, such as bunions, hammertoes,
plantar fasciosis, and shin splints. Toe spreading pads, which can be worn under a sock and in shoes featuring a
sufficiently wide toe box, are constructed of medical-grade silicone and come in various sizes to suit your feet.
Moleskin jordan shoesPads
According to Dr. Elizabeth H. Roberts, a podiatrist and professor emeritus of the New York
College of Podiatric Medicine in New York City, a simple way to remove pressure off your
calluses or blisters is to place a little gauze or absorbent cotton over your problematic
area, then cover it with a thin moleskin pad. Dr. Roberts suggests you remove your
covering each night, as well as when you bathe or shower, so that your skin can breathe
and excessive moisture does not accumulate underjordan shoesyour pad.
When you remove your moleskin, hold your surrounding skin taut as you slowly pull your
moleskin pad away from your callus or blister. If your moleskin pad is situated on your
sole, pull the moleskin back toward your heel; you risk tearing your skin when you pull
in the opposite direction. Moleskin pads are inexpensive, easy to apply, and can be cut
to your exact needs andjordan shoes specifications.
