Big Toe Hole Preventer for running shoes and fabric footwear. Black self-adhesive patches with a clever applicator. Strong and unnoticeable when fitted. Also for footwear repair

Wow these are so handy! They’ve completely prevented my favourite trainers from getting a hole in the mesh. Very easy to use and stick inside my shoe and can easily fit in most shoes. Theyve been in my shoe now for almost 2 years and they’re still working. I should have ordered white instead of black!

Simple to use and fit. Extends the life of your shoes in a few minutes. Just cut the supplied template down, peel off the backing. Stick in your shoe and push the toe down. This is the second pair of these I’ve had and the first pair has taken my shoes to 1300 kilometres and they are still useable. If the holes had happened I’d likely have thrown them away.Good product and good price for something that works so well and makes your shoes last that bit longer.

I think this is my 4th purchase of these. Before I used them I’d get a hole in my left shoe after 200-300 miles. With these that hole doesn’t appear in the lifetime of the shoe (I’m embarrassed to say but that can be 1500 miles!). These really do the job. They are the perfect size to protect or repair the shoe.They are very easy to apply to the shoe - follow the instructions and they are attached to a piece of cardboard that you cut to size which guides the fit position. They stick almost forever. I’ve only ever have 1 start to peel off and that was when the shoe was ancient.If you buy them to repair a shoe then the colour might be obvious, otherwise once fitted you never see again so the colour is irrelevant.And if like me you only get a hole in one side buy a pair of 2 lefts or 2 rights to protect 2 pairs of shoes. They are already cheap but this then saves double the shoes.

Purchased to repair my other half’s trainers. Easy to apply due to shaped ‘applicator’ and so far, so good. We made a temporary repair with duck tape on holiday and this was so much easier to get in the right place. Knocked off a star as not cheap for what it is. If it stays stuck, I would probably buy again.

Brilliant! Does the job perfectly. It will save a bunch of money in the long run by preventing holes appearing in the toe section of my trainers.

Perfect for what I need. I have had them in trainers for over 2 years, done marathon training and run a marathon and they remain stuck in place and stop any holes from appearing. I now put them in any new pair of shoes at risk of getting a big toe hole!

I definitely recommend these for prolonging the life of expensive running shoes with weak mesh front uppers. First of all, I’ve had no issue with the slight reduction in air circulation these stick on patches naturally cause. I’ve bought this item twice for my running shoes - the first time was after I had already put holes in the toe position of my ASICS Gel Nimbus 25s after about 200 km of use. The holes have not got worse since fitting and I’ve now covered 785 km. For my second pair of ASICS Nimbus 25s I fitted these protectors from day 1 and they are have no holes even after having now covered 558 km in these running shoes. Does exactly what they advertised and for my shoes the adhesive has kept them in place without issue, even through some heavy rain, soaking my running shoes. In conclusion, they seem expensive for a couple of stickers, but I feel worth it for expensive running shoes which gain significant extra life for those people whose big toes tend to create holes in their running shoes.

Trainer saver....easy to fit, does the job and saved me from having to buy a new pair, fitting these means ill get a bit more time out my trainers

I have ruined shoes so many times because my big toe always makes a hole. These are the perfect solution. Easy to put in, durable and work exactly as described.

Does exactly what it says. Has definitely protected my shoes from damage. Will continue to purchase any time I buy new shoes

Good for patching holes in runners

Easy installation, works great! Put them in and walked 5-10 miles per day at Disneyland for 5 days. No holes...even though my toe touched that area the entire time! They saved my new expensive Nike shoes from being completely ruined. Highly recommend!!

Ce petit accessoire a littéralement sauvé mes chaussures ! L’installation est très simple et le cache-trou s’adapte parfaitement à la forme du chaussant. Une fois en place, on ne sent absolument aucune gêne, même pendant la course. Un produit malin, discret et surtout très efficace — je le recommande vivement à tous ceux qui veulent prolonger la vie de leurs chaussures !
