Review: Lasted 240 Grueling Miles - As a runner who routinely covers distances up to 13.1 miles, any extra friction on my feet can lead to nasty blisters in short order. Even buying the exact same brand, model, and size of running shoe does not guarantee a perfect, friction-free fit; even if the four pairs you bought before gave you no problems. This was the case with my latest pair of Brooks Beasts. Usually the Beasts fit me perfectly right out of the box, but this pair started talking to my left instep within the first 5 miles of my first training run (in mid-March of this year). Trying to power through with the typical runner attitude was not the best move, as after I had finished the 10 mile run, I had a full fledged blister. During the next week, as I let the blister heal, I ordered the Engo blister prevention patches after doing some online searching. I followed the instructions on the package, adhering one large oval patch over the offending area, which happened to be right where the shoe's insole met the side wall of the shoe -- and my arch would catch on the built-up hard rubber base of the shoe. I smoothed out the patch as I applied it to the shoe, and followed it up with 20-30 seconds of blow dryer heat; and then I wore the shoes to help with the adhesion. That was 240 miles ago, and just today I finally had to replace that original patch -- I could feel that burning feeling after today's 9 mile jaunt, and after further investigation, discovered it had finally worn through along the insole / side-wall junction. For my running shoes, 240 miles is well over half the life of the shoe. I would consider that to be some excellent performance, considering what these shoes have been through in that time. I can't say enough good things about these patches. The slick surface allows your foot to glide right down where it's supposed to go, instead of getting hung up on edges. During that time, the patch never came loose at all, and I still have two more large patches left after the one I installed today (as well as all of the small patches). Highly recommended.
Review: They Work. - I am a long distance walker, hiker, and backpacker. I have been using these patches for several years. They prevent blisters on the balls and heels of my feet. They also work for placement anywhere needed. I have been experimenting for over 30 years to build a combination of boots, socks, insoles, and blister prevention that works. I have found a few that work but none better than: Merrell Moab 2 GTX Mid boots, Wright socks, Sofsole Perform Athlete insoles, and ENGO patches. I give most of the credit to the Wright socks and ENGO patches. I suspect that combination would work with many different boot and insole combos. I have never had any trouble with the adhesive and I do a lot of my walking in the heat of Texas and Arizona. I'm on road and trail approximately 150-175 miles a month doing between 5 and 20 miles each hike (I even did a 40 miler last spring. My feet were sore and tired but without blisters or even hot spots.) I get 4 or 5 months out each set of these patches. I think the double layer Wright socks are taking up a lot of the sliding and making the patches last longer. That's a good thing because they are a bit pricey. I would like to say I will stop buying them because they cost too much but I won't. That's because I'm an old retired guy now and I need all the help I can get to stay out in the woods. Happy Trails.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone tried attaching these to Tevas sandals which in wear with and without socks?**
A: I have not tried them with Teva's, but I do have hem on a pair of running shoes that I don't wear socks with and it prevented the hot spot I was getting from becoming a blister.  Worked for me with no problem.

**Q: I have a large blister on the ball of foot, which size patch should I get?**
A: Package includes different sizes Six Pack Contains: 4 Large Oval Patches (each 2.75" x 1.75") and 2 Small Oval Patches (each 2"x1.5") one of these might just help. Depending on the blister size.Also their is a you tube video with installation procedures you might want to watch that to before purchasing.

**Q: I have a new pair of ankle boots that are rubbing both sides of my ankle/leg. Can these help?**
A: Thank you for reaching out to us! Yes, we would recommend these patches or our Rectangle Patches. Are your boots leather? A few tips: clean the surface area of your boots with isopropyl alcohol and allow it to dry. Our patches can be cut or customized to fit just bigger than your problem area. Use a hairdryer for about 15-20 seconds after applying the patch will help the adhesive hold better. Call us at 866-795-0057 if you would like.

**Q: Are these removable? I’m worried if it doesn’t work for me I don’t want to mess up a good pair of running shoes**
A: Thank you for your question! The ENGO patch could be removed by heating the patch with a hairdryer to soften the adhesive. Please note, once removed it will be very hard to reapply the ENGO patch. Make sure you do a trial run where you want the patch in your shoe with the backing still on. Once you feel comfortable with the placement, then remove the backing and apply. Unlike traditional blister bandages, ENGO patches are ultra-thin, 0.015 inches thick, so shoe fit is unchanged.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow they work.
*by C***N on January 13, 2025*

Changed my review to 4/5 stars because the value is not there… I’m assuming there’s just no competition for a product like this and they just own the market and I just paid $50 for some relatively high quality stickers… I’m a marathon runner and these have corrected an incredibly common problem area I have in many shoes (watch the YouTube video titled “edge blisters” I believe it is put out by this company that makes these) on the medial arch where the insole and the shoe separate. The only problem I have is that these are so expensive. They are a quality product that work great, but since I have to do the double insole protect method (4 stickers per pair of shoe), it’s like adding $16 to every running shoe. I just ordered the 30 pack so I hope I don’t have to think about buying more anytime soon.
