A "miraculous" (Newsweek) human drama, based on a true story, from the renowned author of The Prince of Tides and The Great Santini The island is nearly deserted, haunting, beautiful. Across a slip of ocean lies South Carolina. But for the handful of families on Yamacraw Island, America is a world away. For years the people here lived proudly from the sea, but now its waters are not safe. Waste from industry threatens their very existence unless, somehow, they can learn a new way. But they will learn nothing without someone to teach them, and their school has no teacher--until one man gives a year of his life to the island and its people.

My Heels Were in Bad Shape. Like… Really Bad
Color: Gray
These moisturizing heel socks with the gel cushions were honestly a small miracle for me.
After recovering from cancer treatments, my skin became extremely dry everywhere, but my heels were the worst. They cracked so deeply they looked like fissures and were even bleeding. I tried lotions and bandages repeatedly with very little progress.
A friend suggested I treat my heel like it might have a fungal component, so I applied Lotrimin cream, put these heel socks on, and hoped for the best. Within three days, my heels were fully healed. I completed a 7-day routine, and my feet have never been softer.
The silicone gel cushion is comfortable, soothing, and stays in place. I loved it so much that I still treat myself about once a week, even though I really don’t need to anymore.
They are also washable. I hand-washed mine in the sink and let them air dry, and they came out looking brand new.
If your heels are cracked, painful, or need serious care, I highly recommend these.

Ehh. Not for me.
Color: Gray
Foot slides when walking in them. The fit was tighter than lead to believe. It did hold the moisture in but the silicone patch is small
