The Achilles Heel Pad is a lightweight slip on device made with a soft, stetchable Nylon/Lycra fabric moulded with a proprietary gel pad at the insertion of the Achilles tendon to absorb pressure and friction. The gel slowly releases a medical grade mineral oil (USP) which softens and moisturises the skin.

  • Effective in protecting against discomfort caused by ski boots, skates, cleats, other athletic footwear, shoes and boots
  • Reduces pain caused by footwear pressure on irregular heel bumps
