FREETOO Ankle Brace Maximum Metal Support for Men & Women, Compression Foot Support for Sprained Ankle, Plantar Fasciitis,Injury Recovery, Lace up Ankle Support for Running Volleyball Left/Right

I accidentally sprained my ankle ina tennis competition last month. It felt pain and sore, and I even could not walk for 1 week. The PT suggested me to have a brace to help recovery and prevent to roll my ankle again. After reviewed almost all the brace on Amazon, I ordered this FREETOO brace. I’ve tried their products which worked perfectly. So I think maybe this brace also deserves a try. It turnedout that I’ve made a smart choice! Size/fit: I wore women 6.5 and went for size small. It fits my foot and ankle perfectly. I can adjust the pressure to the most suitable compression with the laces and the straps. It’s so slim to fit into my shoe. No need to size up. Stability: This brace is different with others as it was engineered with metal stabilizer on both sides of the ankle to offer more support.They can not only support my weak ankle, but also keep it in right place which does a great job on reducing pains and accelerating recovery. Once I laced up the brace, I felt that my foot and ankle was fully wrapped in a firm but comfortable way. The metal stabilizer does protect from moving my foot left /right, that’s exactly what I need for sprained ankle. The “8 surrounded straps” prevents over flexing your foot up/down. So the ankle will always be kept in the correct place. Mobility: There will be a certain range of mobility to move my ankle, but not too much. Which makes sure that I can still walk around,or even do some exerciseswithout worrying about hurting myankle again. I am crazy on sports and activities. My PT agreed me toplay tennis with the brace on when my ankle got better. It did give me more confidence to run orjump without any other problem. Quality & comfort: It needs more time to test the durability. While I can tell that this brace have great quality from the stitching and the material. And it’s comfortable on my foot. All in all, I am really satisfied with this brace. It did reduce ankle pains and help recovery. Highly recommend for those who has the same symptoms or similar give this a try.

I've got ankles that are overly flexible and roll easily. I've had a lace-up ankle brace since my basketball days in high school that has been used off and on when I take the odd mis-step over the years. I recently went down pretty hard and, unfortunately, couldn't find my old trusty brace which left me shopping for a new one. I initially found a brace that appeared to be similar to my old one, but it didn't feel the same, nor did it offer the kind of support I was needing. I bought this one as well and, of the two, this one did a much better job providing support where I needed it. I'm able to wear it over my sock and under my shoe. And I was also able to wear it for two days straight as we walked a number of miles at a large airshow with no problems or discomfort. So, this will be my new ankle brace going forward.

I was returning this item but decided to keep it bcuz I like how the ankle cuff doesn't go too far up the leg AND it doesn't have a velcro strap at the too of the cuff which has always caused me problems with circulation. This support is just at the right height for the ankle. Not for the top part past the ankle. Those have never worked out for me. I've wasted a lot of money purchasing ankle support s that didn't really have support for the actual ankle itself. This item does.

When I can put this brace on, it is one of the best I've tried (and I've tried a lot). And, I can't believe I'm about to complain about shoelaces .... but here it goes. I have to loosen the laces across all the eyelets to get the brace on - no problem. But then, the laces twist causing painful knots when it's laced up. I did iron the laces, that helped a bit - but should we really need to iron our shoelaces? And the laces aren't long enough. When I loosen them, they fall out of the last hole or two on each side, meaning that I'm trying to lace them back up while I'm putting the brace on. With my painful ankle (and knee) joints, this becomes a very painful effort. Usually, I give up. Sometimes I'll ask someone else to put it on me. That works, but it's inconvenient. I'm going to try buying different shoelaces (longer and, maybe, stretchy) to see if that helps. Seems like a fixable problem that the manufacturer should resolve.

When I first put it on, I thought that it was not my size and I absolutely did not feel any support for my leg, but after about a couple of weeks I noticed that I still felt better with this thing than without. The only criticism is the strange fastening of the tongue, which folds awkwardly when lacing

Generally seemed to be easy to put on and provided some support. After an hour or so in it though, the base end of the metal supports were hurting pretty well. Tried doing different things to eliminate the pain, but nothing worked. Stuck with one of the two I bought, but returning the unused one.

I had been having troubles with my ankle rolling and straining my outer lower legs when riding, taking sometimes over a week to heal. Despite stretching, my ankles aren’t flexible enough to keep my heels down, so they roll out. Lengthening stirrups helped, but they were too long causing other issues. I focused strength training on those muscles, to no avail. I tried these ankle braces and they immediately solved the problem. Braces are very low profile and easily fit inside riding boots. Provides perfect support but still allows sufficient foot flexibility. Large for size 10 shoe is perfect, and will adjust larger. Middle age male equestrian, English, novice, hunter jumper.

I like that this isn't bulky and can be worn under athletic shoes without loosening the shoe too much. The supports around the ankle feel rigid and help keep the ankle stabilized. The shoelaces aren't my favorite design, but they are useful for tightening the ankle strap around the sides. The velcro loop fasteners add a nice touch to help reinforce stability and support. I sprained my ankle playing soccer but thanks to this product I was able to recover in a shorter amount of time. I highly recommend it
