Seems to work but awkward fit
Sadly, I seem to have inherently my father's poor joints, and I recently partially tore some ligaments in my ankle. As the healing has gone on, I have less need of a full support brace. I have a bandage wrap, but that's more support as well. I saw this was for reducing swelling, and after some workdays I definitely could use that.I looked at every picture, and none have the measuring for the ankle support, they all seem to show the knee brace. So, that's cool. But I'm 6'5", so I went with the larger size. And it fits, kinda. So, for some reason this fits my foot, my ankle, then is absurdly loose around my ankle. Who has such intensely large lower calves I wonder.In terms of actual function, I feel it does do a better than average job of reducing swelling. It's certainly not a "support" in any meaningful way, but I find that a plus because it's flexible enough to sleep in, and I notice the difference when I do.TL;DR - needs a size guide, and the large size is strangely proportioned. Not a support, but does reduce swelling after a long day.

Gives minimal support and warmth
I feel like this product is used more for just keeping down swelling by using heat than it is anything else. It really is just an elastic band that goes on your ankle so you're just basically getting the heat from your body to keep the swelling down in order to heal faster. But there is not a lot of actual support so while you continue to walk around you don't get a lot of brace like you do with most. It'll work for minimum support.

L/XL is WAY too large for a woman's foot!
I bought these for my wife because she has Achilles tendon issues and needs ankle support while working out. She wears a woman's size 10 shoe, so I purchased the L/XL. This hangs off of her foot! It is lightweight without any metal supports, so it seems like it would be good support but flexible enough to do activities in. Just be aware that if you are a woman, you will most likely need the S/M size.

not that supportive, shifts around
I ordered the small/medium size and it still felt a little too loose. It helped a little but not as much as I'd hoped. It shifted around too a lot when walking and working out.

No result
Just like wearing a sock. No compression, no support, barely knee it was there. Sizing is right but results are null.

Works
Maybe get a size smaller than usual.

Ok not too much compression.
This ankle compression sleeve is easy to put on, and not is tight as some other brands. If you need just mild compression then this would work for you. But if you need more compression and support then this probably wouldn't satisfy your need, more for mild compression needs.

I can not in good conscience, recommend this product.
PROS:- It is made-well and it's heavy duty material. All its seems are well-sewn and seems durable.CONS:- It's like putting on a straight tube sock. There isn't any curve to it and so the side where it curves will bunch-up.- In my opinion... the "infrared" power is ridiculous Hocus-Pocus.- I feel they should be tighter to offer more support.
