The present invention is a non-woven, transparent, foot membrane that helps provide comfort and support for the foot during high-
heel shoe wear. The device comprises a self-supporting membrane that flexes, stretches and conforms to the shape of the foot, or the portion of the foot in contact with the membrane, when worn. The device has different thicknesses throughout its structure. Preferably, the parts of the invention at and around the major points of contact on a foot when in a high-heeled shoe, e.g., the mid-foot
plantar surface, the toes (except the big
toe) and the upper foot /
ankle, are thicker than the other portions of the device. The device around the
forefoot, the big
toe, and the
heel, is comprised of a plurality of
layers of membrane material and gel-like material.
