It\u2019s easy to underestimate the impact that foot pain can have on your running. Just a slight discomfort in the toes can slow you down massively over time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There\u2019s a great deal of friction in the shoe when running, so it\u2019s natural that our bodies aren\u2019t always able to keep up with it.<\/p>\n

Toe protectors might not be the solution for everybody but they\u2019re a relatively inexpensive item to try. They work by surrounding and cushioning your toes in a soft material, usually silicon gel, to protect the toes from stress, pressure and friction.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve scoured the market and found the toe caps we think will work best for running based on their designs, the materials used and user reviews. Read on for our top picks.<\/p>\n
