Summary: Good product, with caveats- updated: would give 5 stars
Comment: If you have perfect feet, bet these would be great...however.....most of us don't. I have some misshaped /hammer type toes (due to narrow shoes purchased when younger), and it's almost impossible to get the outside two toes into the forms. Perhaps this will get better with time, but if you have toes that aren't straight....might be dicey.

However, I really bought these because I wanted to stretch the other three (medial) toes, which do fit into the forms, and I think they will work well for this purpose.
(Can't say anything about the 'yoga' aspects about these- I just knew that the foam forms used for pedicures were insufficient, and I needed something more substantive.)
Specifically: I had joint replacement surgery on the ball of my foot (big toe), and it's resulted in crowding between the big toe and 'first toe', resulting in the formation of a corn on the sole of the foot (due to the lateral compression between the toes combined with normal vertical weight bearing in that area of my foot).

The forms do successfully stretch the space between these toes, and my foot does feel better- after ~ 2-3 uses. I paid <$7 for these at Walmart, so it does pay to shop around.

Takehome: Shop around for best price, be realistic about these (if you don't have perfect feet, don't expect them to fit perfectly), but they might be a useful, inexpensive tool to increase flexibility for the foot and toes.

Update- Applying a SMALL amount of lotion really helps to encourage stubborn toes into the forms. (not too much else they'll be too slippery and won't hold traction)

I've used these consistently for ~ 1 week, and honestly believe that they're saving me a trip to the podiatrist & have headed off the formation of a nasty corn in a bad location (ball of foot between great toe and nearest lateral toe). Best of all, my feet don't hurt as much, and seem to be improving with time.
System is not letting me increase the star rating, but I'd give them 5 stars at this point.

Summary: not bad for the price
Comment: it looks like the real version would be softer on the feet, these are a little hard - don't try to walk around with them but they do work. they are a little big but you can push them down onto your toes and they will stay.

Summary: Not as good as the brand name
Comment: I purchased the brand name first and was very happy with it. If you have bunions, etc. this help your foot. I've lost my Yoga toes and decided to purchase the cheaper version. The cheaper one are not as flexible and uncomfortable. I will buy again the brand name.

Summary: As I sit with them on, not moving my toes at all and watch them slip off...
Comment: I think, well there went ten bucks down the drain. I was going to return them but since I wore them I thought not. I have some ball of the foot and toe issues of late and saw the "real yoga toes" on a search and decided to save $25. Can't imagine the real ones being worth that much. Perhaps they are. I am using these "cheap"er ones now and do see some minor benefit from the idea. It's just that they keep sliding off. I am reaching down often to get back on. Perhaps my toes are too small. My husband laughed when he saw them on me and said "boy, did they see you coming"! LOL Well, try this... I remembered I had some pedicure toe seperator sponge things... low and behold... THEY STAY PUT!!! WOW! Who would have thunk for a dollar and 99cents you could get same effect! I suggest to try that first.

Summary: Wonderful! Just as good as the expensive ones!
Comment: I bought these instead of the expensive ones. I was really interested to see if these really worked, but I really didn't want to spend $35-$50 on the "real" ones. I figured the $10 plus shipping was worth the experiment. They do take some time to get used to ( about a week) and if you put some lotion on the toes that are sometimes difficult to insert into the holes (the smallest of my toes) then they work just fine. Lube up your big toe though, and they do slip a little. Gradually increasing the time that you wear them does help with the discomfort, even wearing them for 10 minutes, and them taking them off for 30 min to an hour and then back on for 10 minutes works great for me. Worth the money!
