Review: Great Support/Reduced My Severely Ankle Pain - First time I put it on I was really disappointed and it HURT. Next time I decided to read the directions and as the day went on, it was the first day my ankle was not in total pain as it had been for the past month. Great support, great fit. I wear a 13 men's and bought the large. Make sure the heel of the device is in the very back of the shoe before slipping foot in the shoe. Make sure the device maintains that position before velcroing it up. The device does not remove all the pain but it certainly makes it bearable. My specialist guided me to this device while we wait for custom supports to be made (5-6 weeks). I highly recommend this device . . . just read the directions and watch the videos!
Review: Great idea, poor execution, don't buy. - Very Cheaply Made, the plastic is flimsy, thin and the Velcro that comes with it is so tiny and short that if you have calves bigger than a soda can, it won't fit.

### ⭐ Great idea, poor execution, don't buy.
*by V***C on March 28, 2025*

Very Cheaply Made, the plastic is flimsy, thin and the Velcro that comes with it is so tiny and short that if you have calves bigger than a soda can, it won't fit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sore ankle relief
*by R***L on September 10, 2025*

Can as described. Works well, the hardness allows for pressure relief on the joint. Only down side is it’s a bit complicated to get in and out of shoes. For me i would still purchase it again because it’s attributes point was its flaws.
