Relieve pressure and restore balance with our metatarsal pads—a simple yet powerful way to support the front of your foot. Perfect for those easing into barefoot shoes or looking to reduce discomfort in the ball of the foot, these pads help realign your stride and encourage natural foot movement.
At Bprimal, we’re here for every step of your journey to healthy, happy feet. Our metatarsal pads are designed for comfort, mobility, and long-term foot wellbeing—so you can move freely and feel the difference.
What Are Metatarsal Pads?
Metatarsal pads are small, thoughtfully shaped inserts placed just behind the ball of the foot. They gently lift and support the transverse arch to relieve pressure, improve posture, and restore natural toe splay—making movement feel easier, lighter, and more connected.
Why Use Metatarsal Pads in Barefoot Shoes?
-
Alleviates forefoot discomfort and pressure
-

-
Helps reduce pain from metatarsalgia and Morton’s neuroma
They’re a non-invasive, low-profile addition to support your barefoot journey—ideal for pairing with your favourite barefoot shoes for a boost in natural support.
Ideal for Barefoot Transitions and Long-Term Support
New to barefoot footwear? Metatarsal pads help your feet adapt to a more natural walking style. By retraining muscle activation and foot posture, they ease the shift from narrow, elevated shoes to the freedom of barefoot movement. They work especially well when combined with toe spacers to open up the toes, or barefoot insoles for added comfort and alignment.
Small Pads, Big Impact on Foot Happiness
Our metatarsal pads are lightweight, skin-friendly, and easy to apply or reposition in most barefoot sneakers, casual shoes, or barefoot boots. Whether you’re roaming city streets or tackling rugged trails, they provide that extra bit of support to help you move freely and feel better, step by step.
