Gel Heel Cushions made from polyurethane (PU) gel have been specifically designed to cushion, protect and relieve the heel and Achilles by providing optimal shock absorption as the heel strikes the ground. The contoured arch pad helps to reduce impact and the slim design allows for a more comfortable fit into a wider range of shoes and sporting boots. The protective, antimicrobial covering helps to improve comfort and prevents sweating and slipping commonly experienced with other gel heel products
