Single Spacers

These sit between the big toe and the rest of the toes, thus separating the big toe from the next finger.

Double Spacers

These toe splints wrap themselves around the big toe as well as the next one. The advantage of this over the single spacer splints is that this one gives the extra anchor required for the support of the next toe.

Whole Foot Toe Spacers

These sit between all the toes spreading them enough to align the bones and ligaments better. However, they are uncomfortable to wear for a longer time.
