Question:

You can use the Tongue pads on the top of your shoe. They take up space and keep her foot pushed back.

Question:
Can I use more than one of these in my shoe? It seems like if I used a couple, my shoe would fit even better?
Answer:
Sure. You can use any number of pads. Some of our customers use them on the sides of the shoe (inside) and on the underside of the tongue. But there's no limit to how many you can use.
Question:
I have saddle bone deformty and need to know how to make and use the tongue pads.
Answer:
You need to cut the Tongue Pad vertically down the middle, and place each side on the tongue (or upper) of your shoe, with enough space between them to accomdate your saddle bone. If you read our article on Saddle Bone deformity, and click on the picture of the tennis shoes, you will see how to place the 2 sides of the Tongue Pads.
Question:
Since most tongue pads are larger on one side than the other, which side (larger or smaller)do you place in first?
Answer:
Typically, the wider end would be closer to the opening of your shoe, as the shoe's upper is wider at the top than at the area closer to the toe. However, it is entirely up to you as to which end you place closer to the toe. If you need to take up more room near the toe, then place the wider end of the tongue pad in first.
