  • McDavid Ankle Brace
Size: L Color: BLACK
I broke both my ankles sevel months ago and went from the medical boots to McDavid Ankle Brace . I've been wearing them for 3 weeks. They support my ankles very well. I wear size 13 EEE shoes and had to purchase the extra large braces. The large was too small. I'll have to wear these the rest of my life so it was nice to find a brace that's comfortable and fits inside my slip-on tennis shoes.. ... show more

  • Not what I expected but servicable
Size: L Color: BLACK
These are just some things I looked for when I was brace shopping. Lots of unanswered questions before I just took the plunge and ordered this McDavid 195. I broke my ankle 3/27 and have been in a Frankenstein boot since then. The doc said to order a brace for PT which starts next week, but I will stay in the boot for at least another month. The doc recommended several brands of brace, and this was one of them. I contacted McDavid directly because the sizing chart was SO confusing. Going by the sizing chart, my shoe size (8 women's) showed I would wear a small. Going by ankle circumference (measured as directed, 9.5"-10" with sock) showed I should wear a large. I'm 5' 7" and average weight, and my foot is ultra narrow (3" wide) and spindly, so a large seemed ridiculous. Tip: MEASURE WITH A SOCK ON if you plan to put a sock under the brace. Recommendation: Wear the sock under it! After contacting McDavid, they said to order by ankle circumference, not shoe size. Now I know why. The band that goes around the leg (where you measure) to secure the laces and straps is super short and *tight*!! If you don't mind tight, then it's great. If you'll be hopping all around playing some fast sport, then you'll need it to be tight, which it is. I, however, can't handle things too tight. After I went through several sock thicknesses, I found one that I can tolerate wearing under the tight band if I barely do it up. It seems well constructed though, and seems to be of good quality. Con: I thought I was ordering a brace with stiff steel stays in the sides. There are none. If there are "stays" of any kind, I can't find them. The side support appears to come directly from the nylon and the Velcro figure 8 strapping. However, it does seem to keep my ankle fairly stable after a test fit hobble around the room. If I open my ankle-high hiking boot really wide, I can get my foot in there and still tie it up. Not sure how it will perform on the trail, but that's a few months away still. I'll keep it and give it a try. I fully expected to have to return this brace. I asked McDavid directly about the return policy and they said it was based on "wear and tear" as opposed to "time limited since purchase." If you need to return it and have trouble, contact them directly. Don't go through Amazon. Hope this helps you decide which one of the zillions of braces to buy. ... show more

  • Strap had some problems, but otherwise good
Size: L Color: BLACK
The strap on the top would come off very easy from shoes kicking it or for no reason at all, but other than that it had great support and mobility, and allowed me to get back to sports ASAP. Also, note that they get very hot and smelly while on your foot, but that is unavoidable.

  • Works well
Size: L Color: BLACK
I have bone on bone ankle arthritis. Until I got this brave I could not walk the dog without my ankle locking up with painful stiffness after the walk. I now walk three to five miles and the brace makes all the difference. When I return from a long walk I put on a ankle compression sleeve and often leave it in overnight. This combination works well for me. Don’t get me wrong, I still experience discomfort pre and post walk, but the above combination has dropped the pain level by at least 50%. Make sure to lace this brace up to the top and tight, like ice skates for the best results. Peace-out. ... show more

  • I like this brace
Size: L Color: BLACK
I feel the brace is gonna help me. I have been suffering with foot and leg pain for years. I just went to a new podiatrists who suggested I wear a foot brace. I just got the brace yesterday. I put it on immediately. I feel that it took some of the stress off my foot. I slept with it on my foot last night. My foot hurt less. So far, I like this brace. ... show more

  • it helps
Size: L Color: BLACK
I use a calf high full foot hard brace to fit into my shoes. This brace can't compete with that however I do use it in the house at times. It takes a bit of time to lace it up. Once you do it a few times it gets easier. My situation is probably worse than most so I am assuming this brace would work very well for most people with lighter conditions than me. ... show more

  • Hard To Put On
Size: L Color: BLACK
As someone in their 60's with a fused lower back and a bit of a belly I found this extremely hard to put on. The tongue behind the laces is so tight I had to work at for 10 minutes of grunting to finally get it to slip on. A minor point; the laces had to be laced first after using a lighted magnifying glass to untie the tight knot. ???? It feels good once it's finally on though. If someone had someone to help them put it on once a day for the full day I think it could be really useful or if someone is young and more fit (of course) it would go easier. Perhaps I ordered the wrong size or the mild swelling in my foot and ankle needs to reduce before this will go on easier. For now I will put it off to the side then try it again once the swelling is gone. That kinda defeats the purpose though. I have a walking boot coming in a couple of days that might work better for the first 2-4 weeks then this one as a stabilizer after that. If I find it goes on easier later on I will come back and revise the review rating. I know the device works well for a lot of people. Perhaps I'm just too old and busted for this particular one. I want to give it a good review because it does give great support and stabilization once it's on. I think this is more for long term than short term stabilization. Update: I did find the brace easier to put on when wearing a sock so I added a star. It's a good brace and I'd buy it again but it isn't without needing a couple of minor improvements. ... show more
