Good for Soccer, February 12, 2011
By Tim(Redondo Beach, California)
After playing soccer for decades and rolling both of my ankles hundreds of times, I can no longer play without taping or using braces.
Let's face it...nothing is going to be as stable (and compact) as a solid tape job. That said, it's a pain to tape it up and then cut it off. And, it can get expensive over time, too.
I've tried a ton of different braces. Most are worthless, providing little to no ankle support whatsoever. The ones that do seem to be way too bulky or don't provide enough mobility.
This brace is the best thing I've found to date. It provides enough support to cut down on your ankles rolling (unless you have a serious twist) is relatively compact (definitely adds some extra size in your boot though) and is super-easy to put on and take off.
I'm so happy with mine (that's lasted a few years now) that I'm buying another set.
Make sure you wear socks underneath though, as it can blister your heel during strenuous play/lots of running.

REALLY works!, December 17, 2009
By Diane(California)
This really works. I have posterier tibial tendon injury that isn't healing very quickly and this helps keep the pressure off the tendon as well as providing continued support and reduced swelling to my healing ankle. Nice product...a little bulky, but can fit in most shoes.
