Update: Years later these are still great braces. I machine wash them and air dry them. I have enough PAIRS as I use on both feet together at the same time. I used to just use on my problem foot but turns out in my case after physical therapy identified problems I was having with other foot and leg through hip was created because of the YEARS of extra supporting with the good side. Really who knew? I didn't. Original Review: Well made compared to similar items others sell that look a lot like this brand. This comes in two styles one with side stablizers or stays and this one without. I bought this one without because my foot problem which has lead to an ankle problem has as much to do with the foot than it does the ankle itself. I don't roll my ankles as much as they are in a lot of pain due to foot surgery gone wrong in 2010. That led to the otuside arch failing and numbness and pain from ankle to end of foot on that side that has never improved. This brace definitely HELPS !!! so why not 5 stars as in according to Amazon LOVE IT. I hate it...just having to put the dang thing on is annoying. LOL. I find taking it off even more annoying. You pretty much have to unlace the whole thing to get it off your foot and then relace it the next day to put it on. Heaven forbid my (where wer those itty little violinists when you need them playing here...) take it off and on more than once a day for say swimming/showers/changing clothes or any number of good reasons to have to remove it and then put it back on. I say slightly with tongue in cheek because it does help. For some reason as soon as I began using it the day it arrived my whole leg has been in some kind of adjustmental pain and ache routine. Usually within an hour of walking about with it on that subsides. I bought the two in white because I hate black shoes in summer when the sun heats up the foot something awful. BUT white is going to be difficult to keep stain free so I thought I'd probably order a black one this fall as winter sets in and long pants are in fashion again...yeah BLACK would be fine..did I mention our three long haired shedding cats who's hair is attrracted to everything BLACK but especially to velcro...yeah. So the only real reasons I dock a star is the padded tongue is a tad cheap and I can not get the wrinkles out of the heal area along where you pull up the ribbon work. These creases and the lowest eyelets and extra layers of finishing fabric can be difficult ot keep flattened in your shoes to prevent pain due to this area digging in. I'm use to tightening my shoes to provide extra support to the ankle so in time I hope this will work itself out but for now I have to take a lot of care to get the shoes on over it. I use a shoe horn...one of the super long ones seems to work best. I do have to adjust it some days as it suggests might be the case by pulling up the side velcro supports. I also discovered I had to remove a layer of support I was used to using with this as the combination of support hose then normal but tight fitting sock than usual (a smart wool sock) along with yet another open toe support or arch band either one this last two had to go. It does of course widen your shoe compared to the other shoe but when your aim is RELIEF...it's a small compromise...or you can always where on both feet thinking of the good foot as in sympathy and showing support. It's a solid 4 stars maybe worthy of 5 but Amazon needs to come up with a new definition of what 5 stars means..yet now and again I LOVE something:))) May this help all you who seek it's help. BUT watch the price it jumps up and down by as much as doubling over night to only find it yet again for the under 20 I paid for it and for some odd ball reason the white and black choices on the same page may vary in price on any given day too. Not knowing if it would help I didn't want to spend 80 bucks on a pair of these...one and a spare for washing...after seeing just one day the price I'd put it in at 21 each had jumped to 39 and two days later I found it at less than the first day. Today it's 27 and change????? So for those who do care about their purse....and you have a few days to spend watching for the best deal I suspect you might be rewarded. I wouldn't have fussed with the 2 or 3 dollar variations but 100% was a bit over the top. (This was the same item as I tracked it only via my placed in order page and back and forth with some looking around. I think that is when I discovered they come with and without stays and I didn't need the additional stays I felt. You may however as no doubt many of the different folks seeking this product has almost as many different needs and reasons. (My story so to speak is I feel like I've been on a merry go round whirlwind all my life with that one mean kids act of unkindness. . I broke my foot in highschool after a creepy huge kid wearing work boots went out of his way to step hard on my foot and right in front of a teacher. Today that kid would be held responsible but back in the mid 60's not so much. Fast forward 40 and now more than 50 years later and that foot has had surgery due to bone pieces dislodging and moving into the foot bones themselves. But surgery went wrong itself. So low and behold my ANKLES on both feet are WEAK. WHY are they weak will in big part to wearing compression and ankle supports. I kid you not. (Some may have heard how bad it may be to wear a neck brace for more than a day or two because it causes ones neck muscles to weaken. It's the same context here.) So I've been attempting to strengthen my ankles without wearing these supports but now and again I have to include these jewels. But do pay attention folks if you only need a support for a short while make sure it's short as possible. If you have a chronic condtion such as mine make sure from the start you also include muscle building excercises for your ankle and calves. I'm paying for my ingnorance on this one and even though I do these excercises they haven't made up for all the years of wearing these or similar use of products. Now having said that I am also searching for an extension style that goes further up the leg and would be great if it went all the way to the knee. I haven't found anything to date. I found a collar of sorts that ties similar via grommets and laces but only goes about half way up the leg and seems to always be on back order here on Amazon. I am going to attempt to make my own pattern following this item to extend up my leg that I can tuck inside this foot wrap. I'll have to play around to get the size just so as of course our legs change shape throughout the calf up to the knee. I have severe edema which is chronic and these braces cause too much pooling as my PT specialist for that condition explains and possible more reason behind ankle weakness too. So the best solution is to counter intuitively extend on up the leg similar lacing but at graduated degrees of pressure. No my compression sleeves do not seem to manage this pooling as well as will the extention style garment. Anyway too bad they don't make this in a knee high version. I would sign up immediately. Now of course that means I will also need to continue to excercise to keep by ankle muscles strong and my calf muscles too and possibly face knee isses next.By the way I did not know the kid and he was an upper classman a Junior I think to my freshman. I so sympathize with children who are bullied. I am thrilled when I hear a school takes a stand against this as a child growing up in MT mostly rural schools and even the city schools like Bozeman and Billings I saw way too much cruel bullying going on and tolerated as in they all looked the other way. Today many still do but many have stepped up and took notice and attempt to punish those who should be held responsible and help lookout for those who have been hurt emotionally and physically both.)

As I continue to recover from a bad sprain I’m now using this Med Spec ASO Ankle Stabilizer In oder to allow me to walk while protected and stable, finding them to be comfortable and protective. After my injuries my wife ordered this Med Spec ASO Ankle Stabilizer along with a boot from Amazon to help me heal. In both cases we are very happy with our choices. They arrived the next day thanks for Amazon Prime, and both have worked well for me. A few weeks ago I took a bad hit, spraining my right ankle and nailing my left knee (don’t ask). As I’ve recovered I’ve had to deal with a bruised foot, the sprain, and needing to support one, while not bothering the other. At this point I continue to have swelling in the ankle, deep bruising in the foot and ankle, but the need to get up and around. I’m finding this Med Spec ASO Ankle Stabilizer to be giving me the support I need, but without pain to the deep bruising. Because of the nature of my injuries I’ve been unable to actually put this Med Spec ASO Ankle Stabilizer or my previous boot on by myself. We cannot tell if this is a one person job, but throughout it’s had to be a job I cannot do from my position - so something to keep in mind, but again, it may simply be my injury. The Med Spec ASO Ankle Stabilizer is lightweight and does not hinder my movement. It feels nice as it’s wrapped around the ankle, but again, it’s not hurting nor causing pain across the foot, though I feel protected. I am not wearing socks in these images - as you can see - but these were taken to test the size and take photos for this review. I have since worm them only with socks. While I did not find discomfort wearing no socks, I do feel I’m more comfortable walking with them WITH the socks - as if they give me a little more cushion, but also a feeling of protection. But I THINK I could go without and be fine. * I did wear them around the house that first time without socks for about an hour and I was fine. I like that the ties can be adjusted like a shoe in order to adjust tightness. We’ve worked a few times to get that just right, but it was easy to do and didn’t take too long. I feel the solid, but soft support along the ankle. It keeps me comfortable, but protected. I tried to use them in a pair of slip on casual shoes - the Med Spec ASO Ankle Stabilizer did not fit. I am using them in a pair of older gym shoes - I did not want to risk stretching my main pair of gym shoes - and find that the Med Spec ASO Ankle Stabilizer works well. My wife had to extend out the shoes and could not really tighten it all the way down - meaning the shoes do feel loose on the foot. But at this point I’m still doing limited walking. I think as I can walk more I’ll continue to use the Med Spec ASO Ankle Stabilizer at least another week, and I will have to figure out how to deal with the looser shoe. But as I need to feel protected and strength in the ankle, I’ll deal. In the end I’m very happy with the Med Spec ASO Ankle Stabilizer and will use it as long as I need it. And we’ll keep it around for any... what-if.

I sprained my ankle and as it was seriously painful to put ANY weight on it, I had to wear a large walking BOOT for 2 weeks. Thankfully, my friend's husband who works in the medical field recommended this brace to transition from the BOOT. PROs: - The brace can be worn without the boot attachment and fits fairly well in a variety of shoes. - It was supportive and streamlined, especially after wearing a bulky BOOT. - Allowed me to drive my car using my bad ankle. - Highly adjustable, so I was able to use it even after most of the swelling went down. - I'm still using now for very active exercise (6 weeks post ankle injury). CON: - Be sure to wear a longer sock, so that the brace is not on your bare skin. Not super comfortable without a sock underneath. **** This was the best investment for my injury. After wearing for 4 weeks, it's in great shape and could be used again.

I’ve just started using this support and have been pleased. I’ve got some experience wearing ankle stabilizers so my comments may be helpful. The fabric is fairly substantial and is sewn well. The laces are long enough to accommodate varying foot widths. It’s important to put on a sock before adding the stabilizer to protect skin. This is stated in the instructions. It’s also important to read the instructions before putting it on to get maximum benefit. I had to use a magnifier to read the small print. I wear lace-up shoes and have no trouble putting them on over the stabilizer. It’s comfortable enough to sleep in. It’s hard to say how long it might last, and that depends on how much a person is on their feet.
