Well Heeled • Silicone Heel Sleeves

Small Sleeves, Much Happier Heels

When dry heels need more than a quick layer of cream, Barefoot Scientist Well Heeled makes it easy to give them some extra attention. These soft silicone heel sleeves help hold moisture against the skin while providing gentle cushioning around one of the foot’s hardest-working areas.

Barefoot Scientist Well Heeled – Targeted Care for Dry, Hardworking Heels

Made from soft, flexible SEBS silicone, Well Heeled creates a protective layer around the heel. This helps reduce moisture loss and allows a favourite foot cream to remain in contact with dry skin for longer.

The stretchy one-size design adapts comfortably around the foot and can be worn alone or beneath clean socks. Because the forefoot and toes remain uncovered, the sleeves provide targeted heel care without the enclosed feeling of a full moisturising sock.

Well Heeled also adds a light layer of cushioning between the heel and footwear. This can feel especially welcome after long classes, repeated landings, hours spent standing or a day in close-fitting shoes.

Reusable and easy to clean, the sleeves are a practical addition to a regular foot-care routine rather than a one-use treatment.

A Little Extra Care for the Part That Works Hardest

Dancers ask a great deal of their heels through landings, floor contact, tight footwear and long days moving between class and rehearsal. Well Heeled turns heel care into a simple part of winding down: apply, slip the sleeves on and let them look after the driest area while the feet rest.

How to Use Well Heeled Heel Sleeves

Begin with clean, dry feet. If extra hydration is needed, massage a small amount of foot cream directly into the heels before putting on the sleeves.

Slip one sleeve over each foot and position the cushioned section comfortably around the heel. The straight edge should sit securely across the upper heel without folding or digging into the skin.

Wear the sleeves alone, beneath clean socks or as part of an overnight foot-care routine. Remove and reposition them if they begin to roll, slip or feel uncomfortable.

Well Heeled FAQs

Can the sleeves be used with foot cream?
Yes. Applying a light layer of moisturising foot cream first can provide a more intensive hydration boost. Avoid using so much cream that the sleeves slide out of position.

Can they be worn beneath socks?
Yes. Their flexible, low-profile design can be worn alone or underneath clean socks.

Product Highlight

💧 Moisture-Locking Care in a Reusable Heel Sleeve

Well Heeled concentrates care exactly where dry feet often need it most. Soft SEBS silicone surrounds the heel to help retain moisture and provide gentle cushioning, while the open design keeps the rest of the foot free.

Why We Recommend It

This is a clever little product because it addresses a very specific concern without turning foot care into a complicated project. The sleeves are reusable, easy to wash and particularly useful for dancers whose heels regularly feel dry after training or wearing close-fitting shoes.
