ASO Ankle Stabilizer Lace Up Ankle Brace Sprain Support Black, XL

I spent a lot of time trying to decide between this and a McDavid brace after my last severe ankle sprain - I chose this based on reviews indicating it was easy to get on and off, but provided excellent support and was comfortable. After using it for a few months, I can say all of those things are true. Putting it on is straightforward - undo all the straps, loosen up the laces, and slide your foot in. Tighten and tie the laces, wrap both heel straps around and fasten the velcro, and finish it off with the ankle strap. Takes a minute or so to do, way faster than any taping job. And the laces are long enough that I can get my foot in and out without removing them - I do have to loosen them almost as much as possible though, especially if my ankle is stiff. I am right on the border between sizes - got an XL based on the ankle circumference chart with a measurement of 14, and a 12W or 13 foot also pointed to XL. For times when my ankle is not swollen, there is some extra fabric in there. But the system still tightens down nicely and feels stable, and on the upside I can still get my foot into the brace when my ankle is swollen. If I was buying a second one for routine use I would get a Large. The brace is also comfortable. It restricts motion, but there are no pain points or other irritation, even after playing basketball for a few hours. I was surprised at how well it worked the first time, not it just seems normal. I had to loosen the laces on my shoes a bit to get it in, but no need for bigger shoes. Some people have mentioned smell - I always rinse it out after use, and hang it to dry for a day or so before using again, and never have had an issue. If you will be using it daily, I recommend having two pairs and alternating them. I am working on strengthening the ankle so I don't need it regularly - I use it for basketball but not running, so it isn't a daily thing. Overall, this is an excellent brace, that really helped me to get active more quickly after an injury. I recommend it.

Great all around support for the ankle. Would definitely recommend.

use it for basket ball works great

You probably need a smaller one than you think... as several other reviewers have mentioned. And although it doesn't seem to say so anywhere here, I also found that the product is ineligible for return. I had to buy one, try it on to find out it was too large, and then find that I was unable to return it, and buy another. Other than that it is definitely a 5-star product. Excellent comfort and stability and fits easily inside most of my shoes. Just be very careful and read a bunch of reviews to help you find the right size!

Originally got one of these when i was at my Foot and Ankle doctor some time ago,of course,they wouldn't allow me to come back and get another when it wore out.I was told they were available from WalMart(too long a trip on the bus),or from Amazon,which is where i got my previous one(the second one),worked just fine,until it was time to be replaced..

Fantastic. My ankle has a tendency to 'roll'. This stabilizer did the trick. Thanks.

This product was recommended by the doctor. I ordered the Large originally based on the size measurements. It was a bit too snug around the lower part of my calf. I then purchased the XLarge and the wrap around straps are so long that the velcro cuts my leg. I thought about trimming the straps but it would cut off the loops that you use to pull the straps tight. Unfortunately this product was just not a good fit for me in either size. It is also a bit time consuming to get on correctly.

Les recomiendo esta tobillera, excelente relación calidad-precio. Había comprado varias y ninguna me resolvió totalmente el problema del tobillo y está si lo resolvió desde el primer día

Mein Sohn trägt diese Bandagen täglich im Training (Basketball) und bei den Spielen. Sie sind sehr stabil und geben, nach mehreren Sprunggelenksverletzungen, die benötigte Stabilität ( je nach Spiel evtl. +Tape). Einzig die Sprungkraft ist etwas eingeschränkt, aber den Preis muss man dann wohl zahlen....

Looks and feels GREAT on the feet - looking forward to try them in the tennis court! Vamoos!

Excelente ajuste, sólo recomiendo que midan bien su tobillo para que no les quede grande o pequeña

Produto de qualidade. Boa segurança e estabilização. Recomendo.

Fits perfectly, my shoe size is 11.5 and I bought and XL. It’s snug and has great protection, support for an ankle. I sprained my ankle recently and it’s helped me walk around without pain.
