I've used them years ago but they are okay to start with but after a few weeks they go flat and you don't feel them and the only one thing that I have found that does work is neuropathy socks that you can get off the internet and they work because it helps with the flow of blood to your feet and help your legs and they also keep them warm at night and they also help with injuries and I have been using them for awhile and they helped me and I don't feel it as much but I do when it rains or icy cold or snows but otherwise I am able to walk fine as I do anyway and I only wear a pair of training shoes to walk around in during the day as I feel comfortable in them

Although not related to my diabetes, since having the AZ jab I have had trouble with my feet from time to time.
I made innersoles from foam backed plastic and neoprene, fixing them to ordinary innersoles to stop them sliding and folding up. My feet were still excruciatingly painful but the cushioning helped me to move around and remain mobile before the antibiotics worked.
I think it was simply the cushioning effects of the layers of resilient material which helped, protecting the inflamed soles from being bruised.

I used something like those years ago before T2 diabetes when I used to be on my feet at work 14 hr days - strangely they made me feel a bit queasy- a bit like mild seasickness. Never got away with them
