Amazon Customer: It holding the ankle from moving side to side, but not forward. I did not feel comfortable. I bought it for swimming. I would recommend something wrapped around.

Kim Kilmer: It does stabilize the ankle

Talisker1: Following a broken ankle and torn lateral ligament and subsequent hydrotherapy I still had a weakness which led to my ankle giving way on two further occasions needing visits to A&E.
This simple, cost effective device gives me support from heel to lower calf. The cushioned plastic is supportive but not too intrusive and the Velcro straps allow for easy tightening and un-tightening. Due to other disabling issues I need help to set it up but that should not deter the majority

Amy: This does the job to stabilize your foot and ankle. Some drawbacks; it takes some getting used to in order to put it on as the straps and the splints are all separate pieces. And finally the dye on the stitches comes off on your shoes. Leaving a noticeable stain.

Liri: Bien que l’atelle soit efficace, il y aurait des points à corriger: 1) la bande en dessous est un peu trop courte car 2) l’atelle n’est pas adaptée au port de souliers fermés car les deux côtés en plastique n’entrent pas dans la grande majorité des chaussures. Il aurait fallu que ces bandes latérales soient plus haute que l’intérieur des souliers.

paganesque: So far this brace is giving my ankle the support it needs and in comfort too.

A reviewer here regretted that strips of Velcro at the bottom of the plastic brace damaged the inside of their sport shoe. Thanks to their warning, I was going to tape up the end of the braces to prevent this.

But the Velcro is there to allow the side braces to be moved up and down the leg, I realized. Being short (5'3"), I put the bottom strap in the lowest position. Here it cups my ankle perfectly and also covers the errant Velcro. (Duct or strapping tape would work if you are taller.)

I am in total comfort now. The brace is lightweight with soft padding, comfortable as long as fitted right. I use a shoe horn to slide the heel and sides into the shoe, opened as wide as possible.

With a moderate to severe sprain/torn ligament (don't know yet), I want to avoid injuring it further while not being totally immobilized. Out of caution, the doctor ordered the big old boot, but I think I will cancel it since my foot's not broken.

It's my second day wearing this brace so I'll change this report if opinion changes.

But for now, highly recommended! An affordable $20....
