Frequently asked questions
Is the material used durable enough for daily wear?
Yes, these heel cups are constructed from high-quality, durable molded silicone. This material is specifically engineered to withstand repetitive impact while maintaining its supportive shape, making it ideal for those who spend long hours on their feet.
Does the blue center provide extra targeted relief?
Absolutely. The soft blue center is a key design feature, providing enhanced cushioning and targeted shock absorption directly to the most pain-sensitive areas of the heel.
How do these help with plantar fasciitis pain?
By providing advanced shock absorption, these cups minimize the vibration loads transmitted to your joints during every step. This helps reduce strain on the heel, providing relief for discomfort associated with:
- Plantar fasciitis
- Heel spurs
- Achilles tendonitis
Will these fit easily into my athletic shoes?
Yes, the U-shaped design is sleek and unobtrusive, making them easy to insert and wear comfortably inside most athletic or casual footwear without adding unnecessary bulk.
Do these provide support beyond just the heel?
By reducing the impact and vibration load on your joints during each heel strike, these cups help mitigate the stress that can travel up the leg, providing support for associated hip and back pain.

Each purchase includes one pair of Breg U-Shaped Silicone Heel Cups, so you can provide balanced support for both your left and right feet.

- Women: Shoe sizes 9 to 11.5
- Men: Shoe sizes 7 to 10.5
Are these effective for someone who stands all day?
These heel cups are excellent for individuals who stand for long periods. The silicone construction acts as a protective barrier, absorbing the shock of every step to reduce fatigue and joint impact throughout the workday.
Is the silicone material soft against the skin?
The silicone is designed for comfort, featuring a softer density in the center to cradle the heel while the surrounding structure remains durable enough to provide the necessary orthopedic support.
