I have drop foot on my left side and this product helps with keeping my foot elevated so I don’t trip, which is a thing that happens without it. I do use a shoe insert with it and both have provided me with the freedom I need to walk unobstructed. Thank you!!

As a result of injuries during my previous career, I've essentially no more cartilage in my ankle and have a great deal of bone-on-bone contact at all times. Thus, I need (at least) a semi-rigid support for my ankle/foot to significantly reduce the flexion in my ankle when peddling on a bicycle...at this point the only potential physical activity available considering various injuries I have.Thought this product might help, but it does absolutely nothing to reduce the flexion...I mean NOTHING. My ankle still fully flexes even with the smallest amount of pressure applied while wearing the brace. FOR ME, this product was a complete waste of money. However, if we don't try, we don't know, right?I wold offer that if you need ANY sort of restriction to the amount of flexion you have in your ankle, this is NOT THE PRODUCT FOR YOU. However, if you're just looking for something that may fool your mind and gives you the sense that there is some support, then give it a shot.Again, this product DID NOT MEET MY NEEDS, but everyone's needs are different and the product may be just what the doctor ordered for you. Good luck!

This is not the first drop foot brace I've ordered so I know what works. The positives include being lightweight and thin - so it fits into my sneakers (which I wear a full size bigger than used to for the braces.) The negatives include having the heel too narrow so it rubs after wearing for a while. Also, there is no padding on the plastic that goes around the back and sides of my calf. I ordered adhesive foam, very thin to accommodate this. Overall, even with the negatives, this brace works and that is what matters the most.

They work well.

Probably reasonable for the price. However, it should be made stronger to last longer. The brace works well, but there is too much stress on some parts, the plastic won't last.

The braces were for my foot drop, and while they're well made, clearly supportive, and definitely affordable, the quality control could use some work-Shown in the photos, you can see that the left brace had a single strap at the top, but the right brace had two straps- one near the ankle, and another at the top.All straps are merely glued onto the plastic brace with industrial strength adhesive. I'm not sure what this means in terms of strength or use and wear and tear from prolonged usage.There is nothing to hold the foot into the brace- I'd have to install more velcro straps, using similar adhesive or even rivets to hold the velcro straps in. The provided straps are far, far too long, and were perhaps intended so users could cut the straps shorter when needed. Understood, but as they are, they are ridiculously long.As they are, and as they're intended, they're perfectly fine. They're sturdy, flexible, comfortable and easy to customize for each individual's specific needs.Note that I did take out the original shoe's inserts- the soft, spongy footbed insert/insole in order to get the braces to fit inside my shoes.

Very unattractive, not easy to put on and I think it was too small

This light-weight brace helps keep my foot positioned correctly as I walk, without unduly limiting the action of my ankle. I was concerned that the foot plate would be too flat, since my orthotic would not fit either inside or beneath it in my athletic shoe, but it has enough built-in arch support to prevent my plantar's fasciitis from kicking up (though it might not be the right amount for everyone). I do want a little padding from ankle socks when I wear it. And I put some moleskin cloth on the inside of the calf panel to keep my skin from sticking to the plastic. But overall, it's relatively easy-on, easy-off, particularly when I leave the brace in the shoe and simply unfasten both the shoe and the velcro straps to slip my foot out. In putting it back on, the calf portion of the brace acts as a kind of shoehorn, letting me slip the foot back into place before retying the shoe and fastening the two velcro straps. The straps are quite long; I shortened mine and added another bit of velcro to avoid having extra-long pieces flapping around between my calves.
