Big Toe Hole Preventer

Every pair of running/walking shoes I've worn ended up with a hole in the fabric on the top of the left shoe and sometimes the right, which eventually causes me to buy new shoes earlier than otherwise needed.  It's a foot condition called "the hyperextension of the distal phalanx" (I know, it sounds kinda dirty), but all it means is that every time you take a step your big toe lifts, and that rubbing will lead to a hole.  

I recently discovered the "Big Toe Hole Preventer" which uses a black path, which is under the lift-off release paper in the picture below.  You just cut the outline to your shoe size, remove the release paper, slide the cut-out to the front of the shoe, and press down.  After a minute or so you slide the applicator out of the shoe and wait 24 hours to ensure the patch is secure.  I've put them in two pairs of shoes and don't know they are there.
