What is Bunion Bootie?
Bunion Bootie is a revolutionary ultra-thin, flexible orthopedic bunion splint made to fit comfortably inside any shoe. It helps realign the big toe, reduce pressure on the bunion, and support better foot mechanics while walking. It’s designed for active adults, athletes, and people who need daily bunion relief that works inside normal footwear.
What it does
It gently separates the big and second toe while creating a smooth, second-skin barrier against shoe friction, helping your foot feel more balanced and steady as you move.
When to wear it
Wear it in your shoes while you’re out and about, then to bed barefoot, for comfortable toe positioning day and night.
Who it’s for
For anyone seeking real everyday, long lasting, or holistic comfort from bunions, without bulky splints or painful surgery. Also beneficial for those who want to maintain their new surgical alignment long term

Why Bunion Bootie Feels Different
Most bunion “solutions” are hard to wear in real life. Here’s how Bunion Bootie compares to common options.
Note: Comfort products vary by person. This comparison is based on typical use cases and wearability—not medical outcomes.
Why we made it
Designed for Real Life Movement – Not the Couch
Bunion Bootie was created for people who want comfortable movement all day without mechanical, bulky splints.
Our approach is simple; soft, ultra-thin protection that discreetly fits in your shoes, without added padding or bulk. Wear the shoes you want to wear again, release the throbbing in the base of the big toe so you can do the things you love, without resorting to painful surgeries with long recovery times.
We only want to help. If Bunion Bootie isn’t for you, or the fit isn’t right, we’ll make it right, or refund you 100% of the purchase price.
Note: This product is designed for comfort and support. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
"They are able to be worn in shoes due to their lightweight construction, patient’s in our podiatry clinic choose the Bunion Bootie over other similar bunion pads on the market. The bootie is also great for reducing friction on the bunion area, our patient’s find it provides relief when they wear it in their summer and winter footwear. Nude colour of the bootie allows it to blend in nicely with most footwear, unlike some other bunion pads on the market. We love our bunion booties and we recommend them to anyone wanting support for their bunions."
— Nick (Pivot Podiatry)
"My podiatrist suggested I purchase this product after I had a sesamoidectomy done on my right foot. After you have this surgery, sometimes your foot will tend to drift into creating a bunion. So he suggested I wear this as a preventive measure. I wear a women's size 5.5 or 6, and the small was just the right fit for me. The material isn't itchy or irritating. It washes well, and it doesn't prevent you from wearing all different kinds of shoes like other similar products I've used. I can wear this with my boots, my flats, running shoes and sneakers. I have a pet peeve about socks touching the inside of my toes, and this doesn't bother me at all."

Questions? We’ve got answers.
Click a question to read the answer. For the full library, visit our Additional FAQ page.
What should I expect when I put it on the first time?
The Bunion Bootie should feel snug but not uncomfortable. Depending on whether you picked the conservative size or a tighter fit, you’ll see and feel the change in your big toe alignment as soon as you put it on.
Wear it all day and night for maximum support, and consider different sizes for different activities. Feet swell throughout the day, especially if you are on your feet a lot or in hot weather.
If you sized down for a more corrective fit, you may need to work up to all-day wear—starting with just 30 minutes initially. The Bootie material will likely relax after a few weeks.
After the 2–3 week break-in period, if it feels too tight or too loose, request a new size..
If it’s made of such thin material, how can it prevent irritation to the bunion?
The Bunion Bootie is made of a combination of nylon and polyurethane constructed by weaving two layers together. This design is very effective in preventing irritation, especially rubbing from shoes or boots.
Should the Bunion Bootie be worn just during the day?
That’s up to you. If you are serious about long-term support, you can also wear it at night. Most Bootie wearers prefer a looser size for sleeping.
Does the Bunion Bootie stretch out?
The Bunion Bootie is made of a very durable but ultra-thin material. You can expect it to relax initially after a few weeks, but not continue to stretch out.
If you plan to wear it around the clock, we suggest buying two to help them last longer. Many people also prefer a larger size for bedtime or warmer months when feet naturally swell.
What size is best for me?
Please visit our Sizing Tips page for guidance. It’s strongly urged that you measure your foot for the best fit.
If you are buying a Bunion Bootie for both feet, we suggest measuring them independently, as our feet are not always the same size.
What if I don’t like it, or I discover I ordered the wrong size?
Not a problem. Bunion Booties come with a 30-day exchange or refund guarantee.
Does the Bunion Bootie cure my bunion?
No. Bunions are not “curable” because they are not a disease—it’s a progressive condition.
Many people use the Bunion Bootie to help reduce pain and provide support that may help slow worsening over time.
My bunions are really bad. Can the Bunion Bootie still help?
If you have reached advanced deformity, we recommend seeing a podiatrist for diagnosis and a treatment plan before purchasing.
All wearers are encouraged to consult with their doctor before trying, as each foot is different.
I have had a bunion operation. Does it make sense to use a Bunion Bootie on that foot?
Absolutely. Bunions often reoccur after a bunionectomy. The Bootie can help maintain improved big toe alignment.
Please seek the opinion of your doctor before attempting to self-treat or diagnose.
My bunion is on my pinky toe. Will the Bunion Bootie help with that?

Who's Bunion Bootie designed for?

Really, it's for anyone who wants bunion pain relief and peace of mind that their bunion isn't getting worse by the day.
