they will get more comfortable the more you wear them- i remember the ladies telling me that about some boots/booties and i didn't believe it but it's true!! I found one pair of insearts that are only for the ball of the foot and they are more like foam than gel and the are perfect! if i find them online i'll post a link.
Thank you Nerdy! The inserts I got were like heaven at first, but then I lost all feeling in my toes. I had to use my BF as a walking anchor last night.
