The media could not be loaded. I had a broken talus bone and my orthopedic had suggested I get an ankle brace a few weeks after I was in a boot.I bought 3 ankle braces from Amazon to try to find the best fit. Like shoes, they may fit some feet better than others. So please use the reviews as reference only.I tried the Z athletics, which resembles the closest to the popular ASO brand but with a significantly smaller price tag. I was so hoping Z will work but sadly, it didn’t.The ASO brand, which had a lot of positive reviews (and was also the most costly) didn’t work for me either.In the end, the Sneino fitted the best.The soft neoprene was cushiony. The sizing fits very nicely. It took me a few different tries over several days to figure the best tightness - how much to tighten the laces - in order not to cut into circulation while still offering support.For those reviews that complained it’s too complicated to put on, it’s NOT if you follow the steps.Get on YouTube, there are plenty of videos demonstrating how to put on. My orthopedic doctor showed me how to properly put on one (I didn’t buy it from the doc figuring the clinic probably would charge me more than amazon!) which I’m sharing here in my video.You are supposed to flex your toe and at the same time push down your heel into the hole to get the best fit before working the laces. Skip lacing the last two eyelets when you first put it on or you’ll have difficulty putting your hurt foot through the brace.You also want to remember to first strap the side where your bad ankle is to give max support. I also learnt the 1 finger test from my PT.Watch my video for clearer explanation.It does take a few mins to put on, more than putting on a regular pair of lace shoes, so have patience and plan ahead before leaving the house if you are wearing it out. There is another brand that offers pre-laced brace with a Velcro which saves you time from tightening every lace eyelet but that costs a lot more money so I didn’t consider.In the end, I still elected not to keep the brace because it’s not very useful wearing outside since I couldn’t wear the brace inside my shoes. I had to wear my son’s shoe that were two sizes bigger in order to fit the brace. That didn’t work out very well because the bigger shoe didn’t give me the stability that I needed.At home, I didn’t wear it as my PT was encouraging me to exercise maximum mobility to improve strengthening and recovery.So, after a while, the brace was just sitting there.I think if I had hindsight of my whole recovery process, I would have started to wean out of my tall medical boot earlier into this ankle brace.I started trying this brace at week 5 from date of my accident, a little late. To be honest, I wore the boot a little too long because I was reluctant to get out of it since it gave me a lot of security as my ankle was still swollen and fragile and wanted the protection from the knocks and bangs you could easily get from just moving around. The boot (and crutches) also gave me a lot of respect when I was out and about! People could visibly see you are hurt and give way to you, hold the door, be more patient etcFor reference, I got a size S for the Sneino brace. My shoe size is between 6.5-7.5W, larger end for boots. The front of my foot is wide but rest of my foot is narrow/ slim. I’m about 5’1, 100lbs.See my comparison review against the other two brands to get a better feel.I hope the video review helps those shopping!

Lo pedí para mi pareja jugar deportes y fue la mejor decisión, me encantó y buen material 😍

It's a good brace. Definitely feel less pain with walking. It is bulky tho and you'll most likely need to wear something like crocs which thank God I have and can wear to work. I also found, the easiest way to put it on would be to unloop some of the shoe laces, loosen it as much as you can, and then it goes on like a glove. As a physical therapist assistant, it gives good medial/lateral stability which is important for any sprain. I recommend it, but you will need a bigger pair of shoes or slip ons. Also, it runs a little small. I'm a 7-7.5 (including how swollen the ankle is) and medium fits pretty good.

The media could not be loaded. Size: Medium, ankle circumference 9 inchesI’m a runner and I also work in a warehouse where I walk a lot. I’ve been experiencing shin pain and found out it’s because my ankles are pronating inward causing more impact on my shins.On top of doing exercises for correct this, I’m also wearing these braces while at work to help stabilize and support my ankles.It’s very comfortable and durable. Supportive, but doesn’t make me feel like I’m restricted. It’s just the right amount of compression. There’s a lot of ways to adjust the size as well which is great.

Good support but poor product quality. Eyelets immediately started shifting. Also if you expect to wear this in a shoe think again. There’s no way it will fit unless you have wide feet or big shoes.

Product was easy to use but the amount of support it gave was amazing. I typically use a cane to assist in walking but with this cane is more for moral support.

This brace saved me! I severely tore my ankle (2nd time) and couldn't walk for a week. Acute fracture. I went to the ER and they gave me crutches. I had to go back to work and this brace made it so I could walk and put weight on my ankle without crutches or a cane!! Huge deal! It really supported it to prevent re-injury while healing. Thank you so much.

I wear size 6 women shoes. Based on the size guide, size small is what I need. When I put it on, it fitted correctly on my foot but above my ankle was too small. Good support though. I returned it vs replaced as I ended up buying something else immediately.
