Metdomes Metatarsal PadsThe G8 Metdomes Metatarsal Pads are small, targeted inserts designed to sit beneath the metatarsal heads inside your cycling shoe, redistributing pressure across the forefoot. For Indian riders logging long hours on the saddle whether on Pune's morning training loops, the climbs around Lonavala, or Chennai's flat coastal roads forefoot numbness and hot spot pain are common complaints that a well placed metatarsal pad can address directly.
