Brace On AFO S-Type - Drop Foot Stabilizer, Moldable, Trimmable, Lightweight Polyethylene with Padding and Buckle Closure, Men, Right

I suffer with foot drop caused by spinal problems, I have a light blue NHS brace, I bought this black one because I prefer the colour especially when wearing shorts. But interestingly enough it is quite a bit shorter and I actually find it much more comfortable Than the NHS one, I have large calves and even after heating and bending it it still pinched and rubbed a bit. Because this one is shorter it goes under my calf muscle so doesn't hurt at all The heel is also more comfortable and I don't need the pad a have to use with the other. Surprisingly it gives as much support to my foot as the higher one, I was a bit worried at first The only down side is the lower strap got in the way, I always wear boots not shoes, so I removed it by drilling the metal fixing. It's much easier to put the brace in the boot then put my foot in. This would not be a problem with shoes.

Bought them to replace older AFOs and they are amazing! Good heel to toe walking with them strong but still comfortable. Bought left and right, soft straps and feels way more secure than just the Velcro style strapping that wears out. Easy to fit into any shoe may have to cut to size if you have smaller feet

This seems to be working very well. I had a little trouble finding a shoe it would fit in but I found a couple pairs and it works well. It’s quite comfortable and fits well. My foot drop is mild and I’ve worn it all day for 2 days. No problems. Much better than waiting weeks for a custom made AFO.

I have foot-drop in both feet and have for many years been wearing the ankle brace support type with the Velco strapping to assist my walking and to prevent my feet from drooping and tripping etc., but I found them to make my ankles swell and become tired and sore. So I decided to purchase a right and left AFO S-Type, to see if I could walk more efficiently and normally. I recently did a 3 mile walk around London and found both to be very comfortable indeed. The upper leg Velcro strap has soft comfortable padding, which did not chafe my legs. The fit and the effectiveness was perfect for me - I found that I could walk quite normally without tripping, and I could walk faster with no more pain in my ankles, and I have started to learn to run again ! These are very good value for money, are an excellent and comfortable support and I shall be wearing them from now on - I wished that I had acquired these much earlier. Don't forget to remove the insole from your shoe and place on top of the AFO sole. I have found my legs again!
