Drop Foot Brace - Adjustable AFO Ankle Brace for Walking & Stroke Recovery, Breathable Material for Ankle and Foot Support, Comfortable Design (Medium/Left)

I purchased these a couple years ago and they completely changed how I walk. I have CMT(charcot Marie tooth) an inherited leg condition in which it affects my ankles and feet mostly. Without these I have to watch what I'm walking on at all times or I will trip over the smallest thing, due to the foot drop. I feel more confident walking with these on. They will fit in a shoe if you size up. I'm a 6 and bought a 6.5 and they barely fit. I have the AFOs but can't walk in them, they are so uncomfortable. I will do anything to stay out of those. But these supports are a game changer! Highly recommend!!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:best of best

It is easy enough to put on your foot. It’s not too bulky. It provides some support. If you have a bad case of foot drop, this might provide the support you need. But it works for me at this time.

My foot drop is lateral vs my toes dropping down so this brace did not work for me. I will caution, when you place it on, the straps cross each other in several places so it will not fit in your shoe unless you have a larger shoe size.

I have drop foot and neuropathy. I have a metal/composite brace that leaves a mark and runs on my calf with extended use. The Neolite serves as an alternative for walking and other physical activities where the other is too cumbersome. It provides as much support ! My last Neolite lasted almost 7 years. I will order another if and when ....

For me, it has turned out to be an excellent solution. at first I positioned the foot device in a way that was cutting into my foot and felt like I was walking with a stone in my shoe. Then, I readjusted it. The little elevation the pad provides is just enough that I do not catch my curled toes on my drop foot on the ground or floor. For me, this has made a big difference. Be aware, you might not be able to get your foot with the device on it in every shoe but I mostly wear sneakers and it's fine.

This product is comfy I guess but doesnt necessarily keep your foot at 90 degrees.I would say this is just for being indoorsTried with multiple shoes still felt extremely tight

poor grandma needed to be able to wear a winter boot sometimes but every plastic AFO was too wide for fitting inside any winter boots, and brutal chicago winters with a -20 windchill means wearing an uninsulated shoe or boot was gonna give her foot/toes frostbite even just from doing car transfers. this device helped reduce her foot inversion just enough so that she could stand/transfer/pivot without wearing the plastic AFO and still avoid injuring her foot. she could not put it on tightly enough by herself but it was still a helpful device that improved her access to important wintry things that the standard plastic AFO is clearly never tested with. don't necessarily expect to walk around fulltime in this but it does help make minor or moderate corrections to foot inversion!
