Drop Foot Support AFO AFOs Ankle Brace Strap Elevator Poliomyelitis Hemiplegia Stroke Universal Size

I have severe neuropathy in my left leg and foot, cannot flex my foot, lift big toe and have foot drop. I have an AFO and another higher end brace that work well for running but honestly I wanted to try something that didn’t stand out so much. I know this isn’t made for running but wanted to give it a shot. It has actually worked really well! I use sturdier running shoes and have even run a half marathon with this brace. It doesn’t fix my gait but I don’t think that’s going to happen with any brace at this point. It does loosen throughout a run because it’s velcro but I wouldnt dock it a star since it’s not made for running. Worth giving this a shot. My only suggestion would be to make the strap coming from your shoelace to the brace brace to have a clip instead of Velcro. To me it would be sturdier. You’ll have to judge your own body to know if running would work for you but I felt fine because I consistently run and strength train so I felt itd be worth seeing if I trip or not. Thankfully, I haven’t had any bad trips! I never write this thorough of a review but I relied of them when purchasing this so thought it only right to do the same for others!

These are excellent to use to stretch your feet ss well as hell keep in an upright position too. These also help those recovering from a variety of health issues who are trying to walk unassisted with an aid such as a walker. Balances and helps maintain that balance. The only drawback is sometimes gettting it tight enough to assist on your leg. The Velcro cover that is to be placed through your shoelaces at times needs to be readjusted which can be annoying if you are in the middle of Physical / Occuoational Therapy or exercising as it can interrupt that. The price is reasonable but I did read other reviews that said you might need to order additional Velcro strsos - so consider that in your budget when buying these. I recommend these however I was disappointed that the cost of these did not include replacement Velcro straps or easier adjustments during exercise.

I bought this in 2017. I'm getting ready to buy another one, as this one is finally starting to wear out. This is probably the BEST VALUE of anything I have bought on Amazon. It's highly adjustable, but more importantly, it keeps me from tripping from foot drop, AND I can put it on with no help. I keep it attached to my shoe so that all I have to actually do is put the ban around my ankle with velcro and then secure with the other strap. It is incredibly easy. The only way this could be improved is to come in a flesh color as well so that it's not as noticeable. I really like it.

First of all, this works really well for foot drop when used with closed tie shoes, such as shown in the photo. I used it on strapped athetic running type sandals. It seemed to be a dream come true for several days, but after several days of use, it started to break down the skin and I can no longer use it except for a rare occassion. Great idea but socks required!!

I've tried them all. Prescription and OTC. This has been the best drop foot solution I've found. I do wish it came with extra Velcro straps, but replacements are available on Amazon.

This is a very lightweight (flimsy) brace that is not appropriate for anyone who has moderate to severe foot drop issues. The strap between the brace and shoelaces is thin velcro of dubious strength and no elasticity. Advertised as one size, but it's really for someone with rather small ankles. I did not feel confident this brace would protect me from falls.

Great if it worked correctly. Just cannot stay up when you walk.

I have foot drop from a bizarre staph infection after diving off the Dominican Republic. I was in the hospital for 12 days and almost lost my leg. Since then, the infection killed my peroneal nerve. I first tried the plastic leg devices from hell. Never again. I take this review very seriously because I know how tramatic it is to go from being able to run to looking like a trotting horse or a gimp within a days time. This device combined with a light weight running shoe totally works for me. I bought black new balance sneakers with black laces. When this is attached and I'm wearing jeans or slakes, it is nearly impossible to notice the brace. For business, heavier nice full leather shoes aren't as effective for me. However, I still wear my black running shoes and sometimes if I can tell a new contact notices, I just say, "Sorry, I have a bad wheel right now... " and they don't think twice. I'm a large, former athlete who wears a size 14 shoe so this brace barely fits around my ankle. If you have obese ankles, it may not work. However, you may want to order it. This product could easily be reproduced but, maybe not with the same comfort level but, by parts from home depot for the larger ankle person. Overall, I hope my fellow gimps continue to share information to help each other. (There's a Dallas Cowboy player with the same injury right now. It will be interesting to see what brace he selects.) Regardess, Buy this brace unless you have extremely large ankles... I hope this helps all of you who are in the same situation. God Bless.

Good for people who stumble while walking.
