Epitact Flexible Bunion Corrector
Don't let bunions stop you from living your life to the fullest with the Epitact Flexible Bunion Corrector. Featuring a thin and flexible build, it can be worn inside shoes to relieve pain by protecting your bunion from harmful friction. It is also a corrective orthotic and helps to realign your big toe in order to slow the progression of a bunion.
What's Included?
Which Size Is Right for Me?
The corrector for Hallux Valgus is available in three sizes that should fit most people. Measure the circumference of the foot right below the bunion or use your shoe size. If you are unsure between two sizes, we recommend choosing the smaller one.
Please consult the table below to find your ideal size:
Corrector Size | UK Shoe Size | Foot Circumference |
Small | UK Size 4 - 4.5 | 20 - 21.5cm |
Medium | UK Size 6 - 8 | 21.5 - 23cm |

Made to be Worn Out and About
A lot of bunion braces are overly restrictive and only suitable for use while sleeping. In contrast, the Epitact brace is thin, lightweight and flexible enough to be worn inside shoes while out and about. This allows you to enjoy all-day bunion protection.
Protects and Corrects
The Epitact flexible toe splint protects already formed bunions from friction which can be really painful. It also gradually works to correct misalignment of the big toe to slow bunion progression.
