Core Products FootFlexor Foot Drop Brace for Walking, Soft Ankle Foot Orthosis for Men and Women - Medium/Large

Of the MANY braces we have tried for foot drop, this one is the most beneficial allowing for more control and safer walking without tripping or stumbling. The custom braces the doctor ordered were not at all helpful and in fact other specialists said the custom brace would cause other problems and possibly do additional damage. This brace is excellent, comfortable and very helpful.

Work good for about 3 months then stretch out. Could not use after that

This is my most used AFO for my foot drop between my carbon fiber AFO's and all the other styles that attach to shoe laces. It is kind of large and bulky but it helps lifts my foot while allowing me to plantar flex also,so I still have some range of motion. I use this one on my right foot as it allows me to drive a lot easier due to rubber cords pulling my foot up and still allowing me to push down. You can adjust the amount of lift on the rear of the AFO by sliding the rubber strap through 3 different loops. It helps keep my foot up while walking and lessens the slapping when I put my foot down and I still can let my ankle move vs. my carbon fiber AFO's , which don't really allow any flexion. This attaches to metal clips that go through a shoelace eyelet ,so there is no pulling of the laces like with other AFO's. I bought a 2nd one of these for my left foot also as I have bilateral foot drop. I would absolutely recommend trying this AFO to see If it works for you. 4.5 stars

Easy to place on ankle. Lifts foot for clearance.

Great product to aid in foot health.

Either 1) folded my shoe up or 2) couldn’t hold onto my calf and the sleeve would slide down my leg. Needs to go back to R&D for more refinements.Sorry guys. I had high hopes for this product.

The support that results from this product is great. The stretchable rubber cord results in being able to flex your foot down if needed (like pushing a gas pedal. I have a size 13 shoe, so I had to use the second / third shoestring hole. I could streatch it to use the first hole but that resulted in a very firm pull. I did like a couple others and used keyring holders to simplify attaching the cord. This made it so my walking could be much more normal. (I need to learn to walk again .. 😀 .If it holds, up its well worth the money. Also size: if I measured my ankle right around and over the ankle bone. I got just under 12. I ordered the large and it's fine. If you look at the provided picture of both small and large, you will see the small just shortens the left side, so the overlap of the velcro is less. My only trouble was the cord was short for my size 13 shoe.

While this will not be helpful for all people with foot drop, for those with mild foot drop it might be just the thing. I am able to use it with my kizik tennis shoes and with my easy spirit sandals. It pulls my toes up just enough. I think I could easily drive with it.I really live how adjustable it is, so that I do have options to use it with different shoes. The other thing that makes it nice is that it's so easy to take on and off. When I'm sitting with my feet up the whole thing comes off and then when I need it it's easily fits back on. Also it is very light and was very easy to pack for a trip.
