Slim-Fit Ankle Brace for Sprained Ankle, Quick Lace Up Ankle Support for Women Men with 2 Auto-Shaped Pads, Air Fabric Cool Ankle Stabilizer for Injury Recover, Running,Sports,S(10”-11.6”)

This brace offers adjustable compression, support & mobility. It's worn over a sock & comfortable when adjusted correctly. It doesn't make your ankle sweat like an elastic bandage does. I wear a size 9 wide shoe, & the medium brace just fit over my athletic sock. I would say if your a size 9 1/2 or more get a size large. A little intimidating at first with all the straps, but once you put it on a few times it's easy. It's basically an open toe high-top sneaker without the sole. The rubber side support straps still allow your foot to roll, so if you need complete immobilization for a severe sprain or fracture, you'll need wear a walking boot until you heal enough to use this brace. This is an affordable, well-designed, & quality made product that I would buy again & recommend for mild type 1 to moderate type 2 ankle sprains.

I chose this sleeve because it was the least expensive version of this kind of brace at the fastest shipping speed. I realized after two weeks of continued swelling and discomfort, my twisted ankle was not really without actual support. ACE and regular compression stockings were just not cutting it. It's a little like a puzzle to get it on but once you get the groove it's easy enough for a relatively mobile person to get on. If you have any difficulty with putting on socks and shoes, you'll probably need help applying this brace. It offers support, which is the primary reason for a brace, so it does what it's supposed to. Mine arrived brand new, security sealed in a packet with instructions that are clear and a small gift of a compression ankle garment, which was a nice surprise that I don't have to buy one separately now. The material is high quality and the velcro is crazy-sticky, so be mindful you dont let it touch your socks or sweater because it will absolutely get good and stuck. For what I paid, the fast shipping, the apparent quality and the comfort, I would say I got a good deal and I'm fully satisfied with my purchase. The photo is the brace on my left ankle, with compression stocking under and grippy sock over top to keep the brace tidy. I don't think I could fit this in one of the shoes I own but would have to get a size up and wide width. If you're here shopping for a brace, wishing you a quick recovery!

This has been the best ankle brace ever. I broke my ankle and ordered this brace while I was still in the boot. Started wearing this brace as soon as I was cleared to switch from a boot to a brace, and it has been a game changer. I use it during any form of exercise, specifically while coaching basketball practices. I truly believe that this brace has saved me from any further injuries during said practices. I also used to wear it everyday after my injury. The support on it is amazing, but still flexible enough to be able to move on the court, at work, while driving, etc. Another added bonus is that it fits inside any shoe (I have to loosen laces a bit, but still fits well and isn’t uncomfortable). I would highly recommend this brace to anyone with any sort of ankle injury.

I bought this after a serious sprain w/muscle tear as I was instructed to transition from a medical boot to an over the counter, store bought ankle stabilizer. The side parts that are to stabilize the ankle are thick, flexible rubber similar to a rubber luggage tag or thick shock absorbing phone case. You can bend them about 50% of the way in half & it becomes slightly more flexible as it warms from your body heat. I thought these side rubber parts would be a stiffer rubber or have a plastic core to make them more ridged than they actually are. During a 2hr trial period on flat ground indoors, I felt my ankle near to rolling again several times; still it did provide more compression support than the popular 3 letter brand stabilizer sold in most walk-in stores. Overall, this one is too flexible for my needs & would be better to prevent injury or use after a minor sprain. I found the FIT OKAY. Fit well around my ankle but the top part is not any wider than the bottom, so the laces did not pull tight enough for the Velcro to reach the other side where it Velcro's fast (a common issue I run into w/these quick Velcro tighten lace type ankle braces). I had to Velcro the top lace strap to the mesh, fabric tongue, which will wear down this fabric faster over time. It did hold that way pretty well though. The top strap that goes around the leg after that, I was able to Velcro properly, but it still should have been a longer strap. If you have thicker legs you may need to go up a size. The Velcro on all straps holds really well and is not rough to the touch. It's a bit annoying to put on because the side rubber supports are on long straps, so the Velcro part got caught on the couch, carpet, or my pants as I tried to tighten the Velcro laces. It's nice that you can align the rubber supports slightly more up-down or left-right to best support your individual shaped/placed ankle (instead of it being a static one size fits most support alignment). I found that this brace DID NOT FIT IN MY SNEAKERS; my sneakers are well worn in & loose around the back too. I still have to wear Crocks with this brace like I do the kind with metal support rods in them. Stitching looks good and the material is comfortable.

This is a good brace for minor & major ankle sprains. I sprained my ankle so bad that I fractured a small bone at the top of my foot and these worked great for me during the recovery period. The support elements are very rigid and firm, but that's probably a good thing and there are enough ways to adjust and rewrap to make them comfortable enough for me to use them 8-12 hrs at a time.

WHcool slim fit ankle brace perfect exactly what I needed for a sprained ankle which was making it impossible for me to walk. This has a compression sock that I slip on over a small sock that o I already had just for toe and heel and then you need to take your time and put it on so it adjust perfectly be slow and gentle because the means for hooking it up are very very good but not meant to be jerked around there are two lace pulls for the lower foot and the upper foot and I usually do them both at least twice and get the ankle opening centered underneath after I do that I do the other straps around and when I’m finished, it’s a very secure very stable and comfortable brace. I recently also purchased KIZIK high top shoes which the brace easily slips into I bought one brace for each ankle because I was limping so much. I was causing stress on the second ankle that wasn’t sprained. It’s amazing how well I can get around now. I also purchased several other brands which I sent back after trying on because they didn’t provide the secure fit with the comfort. I also have for just short emergencies a little slip on ace bandage, which is helpful if it’s not serious I cannot recommend this brace enough. They really got everything down. Perfect. It has compression. It’s soft. It’s stable and it allowed me to walk when I couldn’t. I wear between an 8 to an 8 1/2 woman’s shoe and the medium was perfect. I also purchased a large, but that was a little too big for me. I sent the large back when I purchased my second medium really a great brace. having had so many different braces in my life I would give it 10 stars if I could.

I have been using this brace for a week now while I find that it does a decent job for stabilizing it could be better if it had a size option while the world thinks that a one size fits all it honestly has never fit my body shape I am 5,7 153lbs 9 and half foot size on average give or take a pounds I have very narrow feet my calves are thinner so basically I have to try and modify everything to fit better even with the swelling in my ankle I need to make the string shapes on the brace shorter to be able to strap down I chose this one because of the wrap for ankle support as I can not feel my injury I needed extra support for my ankle because of neuropathy I didn't relize I injured my foot I only noticed the swelling after showering I did not shower the day before because I stayed in relaxing I didn't feel the need to shower but I probably injured it the night before I have been so use to walking with body parts being numb or super sensitive plus i also tend to forget to check for injuries but I truly wish this came in a smaller size so I don't have to shorten anything on the product i buy so slim fit ankle brace is not very slim fit even hand braces do not fit I have big ass man hands and tiny wrist so most of those are bought at a medical supply store but I recently moved states and bought it off Amazon I do really like the brace just wish they had a smaller size I typically buy a child size but this type only came in adult

If I could give this 20 stars, I would! Out of all the different braces I’ve bought for my ankles, this one is hands down the #1 winner. ​I put these through the ultimate 'workhorse' test: shoveling the driveway and sidewalks, mowing the lawn, and walking 15 miles a day in the snow while my ankles were in serious pain. These braces were the only thing that got me through. They work perfectly and, most importantly, they are not bulky at all. They are very easy to put on and assemble right out of the box. ​One quick tip: After a couple of months of heavy use and washing, the Velcro on the straps does weaken slightly, but they still work perfectly fine for me. I’m so impressed that I’m actually buying a few more pairs. If you’re looking for the best support without the extra weight, these are it!

Multiple fastening points to support the ankle. The laces are attached to a Velcro strap for fast fitment. The Velcro for the rear of the foot is very strong. The strap around the ankle is also secure by very strong Velcro. In total there are 5 strapping connections to fasten in order to fit the ankle brace. But as all are Velcro fastened, it's a quick process. It provides the most secure ankle support of any ankle brace I have used thus far. It also came with a free ankle sleeve in the package.

This WHCOOL Ankle brace is sold as one unit, it arrived quickly and was nicely packaged. Upon taking it out of the box it immediately felt solid with its velcro straps, and the synthetic materials felt of high quality. I was able to undue the straps quite easily and slip it over my ankle for a nice and snug fit. The two inner laceless straps allow of easy adjustment while the two main straps lock into a figure 8 setup and provide a very nice fit to support my ankle on both the lateral and medial side. The lockdown under foot remained comfortable while wearing it for over two hours playing basketball. I'd highly recommend this ankle brace for its easy of use. Minimal break in time is required for it to conform to your foot. Overall it is a great product.

I really like the support provided in the brace, it’s supportive without being rigid. The Velcro strapping provides a good level of adjustment to how tight or loose you want it to fit around your ankle, and once adjusted stays in place. I find it a bit snug when wearing it with my winter boots, but it fits fine in my runners, I loosened the laces slightly on my runners to accommodate - but still kept them tight enough to do my interval training. I find it to be fairly breathable, only getting hot when I have been walking for long periods or wearing for an extended period of time with my winter boots. It came with an open toe compression sock, I put this on under the brace when I need some added support, or wear it on it’s own if I am just needing a mild support around the house. I’m very happy with the level of comfort, flexibility and support this has!

This ankle brace is incredibly sturdy and well constructed. It is easily used and the fabric breathes making it a lot more comfortable to wear. I definitely recommend for anyone who needs extra stability. I really like that it’s pretty lightweight and isn’t bulky so it’s easily worn in a shoe.

This WHCOOL Velcro Lace-Up Ankle Brace for Sprained Ankle, Slim-Fit Ankle Support provides good support for injured or sprained ankles to help with your recovery. When I first saw the brace I thought that it would be extremely complicated to put on your ankle because of all the lacing and straps but once you know how to do it it is very quick and easy. There are laces on this support but they are not laced like in shoes. The laces do not need to be individually pulled to tighten them. The laces are in 2 two groups and are pulled tight and fastened with Velcro. Two more straps are routed under your heel and fastened on each side and finally 2 straps are wrapped around the top of the brace to keep everything secure. It does seem complicated but after a couple of times it becomes second nature to put it on. The brace provides good stability and is not overly bulky so should be able to fit into your shoe without issue. The interior of the brace has a soft lining. The seller has a free gift included which is an ankle brace compression sleeve. This is a much less supportive brace but is perfect for transitioning from the big brace as your ankle gets better and requires less support. This included ankle sleeve is a great idea. Overall, this brace provides good support while your ankle is healing from an injury or sprain. It is well made and should last a long time. If you are in search of a quality ankle support brace then this product should warrant your consideration. Recommended.
